| Repairing older amps Keep in mind that repairs can be expensive. So, don't buy a broken one thinking it will be cheap to fix. Some of these when they blow, they really BLOW (ie Threshold). Also, some amps have really matured over the years. Original Acurus was extreme... | |
| What planer speaker to start with? Budget 2k MMGs will be selling yourself short. You really need the 12's or better to get the full feel of planers. Personally, I'd find some electrostatics, Logan, Soundlab or even older Quads. I had cheap maggies and the difference between those and a pair... | |
| High speed Internet connection question Verizon's customer service is questionable at best. I dropped it for cable (comcast) and am quite happy. Don't you have minute limitations with wireless? | |
| multiple iTunes libraries, connect to house audio I don't get it how you intend to browse the itunes library? Running off a pc will work for the remote control but won't do much for itunes surfing?

| Saved by a Bose Wave radio You're missing the point, this has become a 20bit, dual burr brown dac, 150 watt class A rated Bose with 8" woofers, 1" tweeters and 94db at 1 watt! For once, I like Bose. | |
| Speakers & the room 1-what's up with the ceiling tiles? I'm assuming that they are acoustic tiles since you have done so much else. Have you tried opening up just a few (put grids in)? It will allow some sound to go up and never come back down.2-If it were my room, I... | |

| What might cause LOUD hum in a Conrad Johnson pv6 Is the hum out of both channels? Tighten transformer screwsIs the hum on one side? Try swapping the final gain tubes only, probably 5751's. Just change the right and left. See if the hum moves too. To find these, I think they were the very back pa... | |
| Need tube advice CJ has very particular taste in tubes. Personally, I'd rather try something with a little less bite. Most of the reputable tube dealers out there have great tubes for the CJ. Try: tubesandmore.com for NOS usa tubes, upscaleaudio.com, echohifi.com ... | |
| a REMOTE idea? Creek units are totally passive with nice volume controls. These really don't color the sound at all.There are still 2 problems here: 1-You are adding a second pair of interconnects and a volume box which can add to noise. 2-The remotes on Creeks ... | |
