| Am I wasting money on the theory of Bi-amping? Seems biamping in an ideal way would be using a tube amplifier for upper drivers, and solid state for bass. I believe it's widely accepted that tube amps for bass drivers presents lots of less than ideal issues. To me using solid state across all... | |
| Best way to clean glossy finish on speakers? My glossy finish looks fine without any polish. I just want to clean off the surface. Why would anybody polish an already existing Nice looking glossy speaker finishes?? Introducing a mixture of all kinds of molecules against the glossy surface ... | |
| Best way to clean glossy finish on speakers? @lanx0003 I guess when you go away for extended periods while in Europe or you're Mountain lodge or when you're at your Beach house, this would be a good idea. I think the fabric covering it up may rub against it unless you design a special en... | |
| Am I wasting money on the theory of Bi-amping? I have learned that Wilson and others who do not offer biampable speakers it's because they don't trust the world to do it properly. So they don't want you to screw up their speakers. I am a big proponent of doing tube anp mono to the upper range... | |
| Best way to clean glossy finish on speakers? I wonder what chatgpt would say. Maybe this website will be replaced | |
| Best way to clean glossy finish on speakers? I like the car detailing spray idea. Also a swiffer duster is really good to have. What an incredible invention this was and how stupidly simple it is. No one mentions use of distilled water, which is a lot better to use versus tap water. Amazin... | |
| Am I wasting money on the theory of Bi-amping? Why doesn’t Wilson allow for biamping of their speakers? Seems really odd with all those drivers in use. Even with all their glorious crossover designs, it would seem to make sense to allow use of a tube amplifier for the upper drivers and solid s... | |

I like the idea about a surge suppressor at the electric panel, don’t know at what point it triggers but it seems somewhat helpf... | |
| Warranty repair wait times - serious industry problem?? I don't follow why warranty service would get priority by repair centers. Truth is it's a very low profit business compared to other repair work, and when there's a shortage of skilled labor to do the work, there is no incentive for manufactures t... | |
| Are your listening levels healthy? Doing damage? Thanks, don't understand the microphone size issue. Curious to know the price on this meter and the calibrator. I checked and saw prices all over the map, one was $2100 | |
| Warranty repair wait times - serious industry problem?? @cleeds My neighbor has a couple 275 amps that are not used, older and need some attention. Definitely out of warranty, and service repair places say mcintosh says best to go to a service center. This was as of two months ago. Currently don't k... | |
| Warranty repair wait times - serious industry problem?? @ozzy My guess is your service center handles a lot of electronic gear so it may relate to other manufacturers as well. I’m beginning to understand that warranty Service centers related to audio gear, and other stuff and they do cover lots of m... | |
| Power conditioners and power regeneration I use the transparent power isolator. It doesn’t limit power and reduces interference noise. Addresses magnetic interference. And then it’s up to me to get the power to the components and that requires very nice power cables. i use a 20 amp dedica... | |
| Nuclues plus bricked Why doesn't roon offer a phone support number? I found the file manager system horrifying to deal with. I'm also trying to integrate a desktop PC with a nucleus to access music files, it was extremely convoluted complicated, and not able to figu... | |
| Warranty repair wait times - serious industry problem?? Basically it's unfortunate because I would like to buy an amplifier and now I learned because of the declining workforce to service audio gear it presents another problem. Why would anybody buy used gear when servicing is needed and in many cases... |
