| Quietest Refrigator ? Tvad...Not presently. When my family lived in a place where the electric service was unreliable (Malaya) we had a kerosene one. It worked fine, unless you forgot to refill the kero tank.If you Google "Gas Refrigerator" you can get lots of info. | |
| Can a Magnepan 1.6 be BI AMPED? Elizabeth... ..Both the woofer and tweeter sections are 4 ohms...Yes, you can hook up full range signals to the woofer and tweeter input terminals (the tweeter terminals are those connected by the jumper). This will utilize the passive crossover, ... | |
| Quietest Refrigator ? Jtori...Another reason to use a gas (or kerosene) refrigerator. If you run it on electricty instead of gas the heater will make no noise. | |
| has lead shot surpassed cold Nandric...Depleted Uranium is better. It is used wherever a lot of weight is needed in a small space...example: balance weights of aircraft control surfaces. It was also used to damp shimmy in the DC9 landing gear. Lead weights would have been too... | |
| Quietest Refrigator ? Also, some gas or kerosene refrigerators have auxillary electric heaters that can work in place of the gas flame. | |

| Class T amps and Zu Druid Credenza's By "class T" do you mean based on the TriPath module? If so I can recommend, although there is lots to an amp outside the control module. I have three CarverPro ZR1600 stereo amps which are based on the TriPath module, and they are as good or bett... | |

The cone can be designed to break up in a predictable manner, and the breakup characteristics dete... | |
| What effect will removing a whizzer cone have? I believe that the whizzer simply generates a broad band of high frequency sound (noise?), and the ear "thinks" it hears in this band the harmonics appropriate for lower frequency fundamental sounds. If you remove the whizzer the speaker will have... | |
| Balanced connection XLR microphone cables ? If you believe what AtmaSphere says (and we all do) the balanced configuration of wiring renders the exotic characteristics of the wire unimportant, so there is no excuse for high priced balanced interconnects. My experience supports this view.One... | |
| Normal Practice To Use 6 1/2" Sub With 8" Speaker? In general, the larger the driver the less cone excursion is needed to achieve a given SPL. Extreme cone excursion, as is often the case with subwoofers, causes distortion. Small drivers can play low, just not loud. With the combo you describe the... | |
| Records are getting noisy Mono playback is sensitive only to horizontal movement of the stylus, whereas stereo is sensitive to both horizontal and vertical. It is well known that low frequency rumble is mostly vertical, and is eliminated by mono playback. However, it seems... | |
| Tone controls? Sorry about the heresy. Tone controls do not serve the same purpose as an equalizer. Tone controls are good for quick and easy improvement of a particular recording. An equalizer is used to compensate for room and speaker deficiencies. Setting up an equalizer takes the b... | |
| Suckout at 40 hertz...less pricey solutions? A Behringer DEQ2496, which you can get (with mic and cable) for about $350 will show you what your problem is with its spectrum analyser (Real Rime Array, RTA). The RTA will also help you see the effectiveness of various room treatments that you m... |
