| Line fault at the outlet -- do I need an electrician? TBC: A subpanel is a panel downstream from another panel. Meaning, there’s a panel before it that has a fuse/breaker that can turn off the power to the sub panel. There is one set of breakers/fuses to a subpanel, but the subpanel may contain any ... | |
| Line fault at the outlet -- do I need an electrician? Lastly, does the 4V on the neutral go away when the breaker is off? | |
| Line fault at the outlet -- do I need an electrician? OP: Your circuit is fed from a sub panel, correct? Is the circuit fed from an independent breaker, or is it a duplex? Also, have you seen any boxes in between the sub panel and the outlet? Best,E | |
| Line fault at the outlet -- do I need an electrician? Is this circuit on a sub panel??? If so, your problem is upstream (closer to the service entrance). | |
| DAC/Streamer alternative to OPPO Sonica DAC!!! HELP !!!! My suggestion to you, having gone through many system changes, and breeding cables, and interconnects is to consolidate all of it to an Anthem MRX 720. Be done with it all. Is is a great all-rounder that will save your sanity. | |
| Bi - Amping I'm not sure what you mean in this case.You want to mix amps in a home theater? That's fine. If you want to mix amps that go to 1 speaker, so long as you have separate inputs and level controls on the amp, easy. | |
| Can speakers sound worse during break-in period? My personal experience is that capacitors can do this more than drivers. Usually drivers (woofers) get better bass over time, they all go in the same direction. They don't get worse, and then better, but caps do all sorts of funky things. If you ... | |
| Vivaldi, played badly, is the worst classical music on earth I just want to take a moment out to thank everyone who has replied with sincerity, and recordings to listen to. You've all made this a more informative and fun thread than I could have honestly imagined. Thank you.Erik | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? The mass/speed issue is not real. What is real is the integration with the room. Smaller sub = less bass = less problems. Otherwise, bigger is better. :) A well treated room, including bass traps, is the best place to start. Talk to GIK Acoustic... | |
| Basic Digital questions Ethernet is the best way to go. In my mind for two reasons:EMI/RFI noiseReliabilityEspecially in densely populated residential areas, getting a reliable signal can be a PITA. I often have to change router channels to get a reliable signal. So, fo... | |

| How does this make sense, any sense? Any sense at all?? The ls50 is bettered by the inexpensive $449 Wharfedale 225’s And those are made better by inexpensive cap upgrades. :) | |
| Line fault at the outlet -- do I need an electrician? I ran out of time today, but I'm going to (a) unplug all things on that chain(b) measure again to see if the 4v are still there Not really going the right way. The voltage appears because you have a resistance on the neutral (bad connection or ... | |
| Luxman d-08u vs berkeley reference 2 dac PS - I'm a huge Luxman fanboy, never heard their DACs so I can't comment. | |
| Krell Evo 302e amp shutting down afeter about an hour!! Depends on the design, with some DC coupled amps this can happen because there is DC on the input. First thing to do is disconnect the inputs and see if the problem continues. You can use a DC meter. With no input, the DC voltage should be 100 m... |
