| Perhaps a Stupid Question If you do change the cable, then consider that you will buy an expensive cable, and most likely want to use that cable later on a different TT or Tonearm.Solder cable with RCA Male; solder RCA Female Jacks at TT or somewhere. Solder Din connector ... | |
| Perhaps a Stupid Question I seriously doubt you will achieve an audible difference. If the cable was deteriorated, that’s a different issue.I would look to upgrading the TT sometime, perhaps one with the potential to change the tonearm.Think long range now, what arm(s), ca... | |
| Seems tough to ensure only subwoofer is playing bass frequencies (& not the main speakers) that sub has ’output high pass’ https://www.velodyneacoustics.com/digital-drive-plus-series/ the sub grabs the bass, and crosses over at either 80hz or 100hz as you choose.you send full range separate left and right signals to sub first, then it ... | |
| turn on dac preamp and amp with one button this one came up easily in a search, 'remote control surge protector'. currently available. https://www.amazon.com/Belkin-8-Outlet-Conserve-Protector-F7C01008q-dp-B003P2UMNK/dp/B003P2UMNK/ref=dp_ob_title_ce I would want one with less outlets, as... | |
| Rega Planar 10/Aria MC Phono Stage HUM I would get rid of that Aria, you may minimize it, but it sounds like it will always be a problem, even if minimized, you deserve no hum. | |
| Cooling fan for tube amp? What amp?If it needed a fan, they would have built one in, or stated so in the literature/specs. Enclosed, trapped heat, yes, butI would never add a fan if I could re-arrange for an 'open air' arrangement. My Cayin A88T has 4 KT88's, 2 6sn7, 2 6s... | |
| Is this a good price for Anthem STR Pre Pro? floor model, how does the factory warranty work?cameras, open box, demo's, if never sold, when sold the invoice date is the date of initial sale, and full factory warranty begins on that date. | |
| Turntable issue to examine the negative,how do you personally know for sure it was working fine before shipping? if fine there, but not now here, it was received 'damaged', the selller/shipper is responsible.Is there a return/refund period? I would be very fi... | |
| Have a Victor UA-7045 tonearm coming Bill,Congrats, I was very impressed with the workings when I took the one I had apart before sending it back.Not to send bad vibes, however, don’t be drilling any holes yet, the thing could get destroyed, and even if perfect, you might find a grea... | |
| Low volume listening dynamics 2 IMO, my best guess, what I suspect:You and your friend must love clarity of highs and mid-range without lows, as, for 2 reasons, you are not getting much bass 1. low volume, our hearing is less sensitive to bass, soooo, as per fletcher munson, bas... | |
| put tube amp on to shelf of a rack there ought to be a business 'Rent A Teenager'. I've got a 3rd meniscus tear from moving my 80lb amp in/out of bottom shelf. And, all that heat rising into other equipment. New arrangement, TT elsewhere, heavy/hot amp on top. | |
| Tubed Preamp recommendations? Think long regarding features, options, remote volume somewhere, and I am a big fan of remote balance.I don’t know anything about current choices,After many years, tubes/SS (I’m 72), I am most pleased with my vintage McIntosh Tube Tuner/Preamp, mx... |
