| Class D is just Dandy! George, It seems no matter how factual I am you complain about me being abusive to you. You have made dozens of posting on this thread, and ignored the request in the OP and myself and others to start an anti-Class D thread if you are so inclined.... | |
| Class D is just Dandy! I'm afraid I haven't had time to go out and listen to a lot since the last show here in ... Long Beach? Newport Beach? I've also gotten to a poin where I'm very happy with the sound quality at home but not the remotes. :) Seems bad for me to find ... | |
| Subwoofer insight. Make sure your room acoustics are dealt with first. They can make speakers sound larger than they did before, by tightening up the bass and controlling the mid/treble. Talk to GIK acoustics. That's first, next, subwoofers are great, but be prepar... | |
| Power Amplifier Longevity No AV piece made more than a couple years ago is a good bet for longevity (excepting Theta Digital) I am a big fan of Theta, lived very happily with a Casanova for years. Really should not have sold it. Anyway...Sadly, since HDMI came out, Theta ... | |
| Beware of NAD M3 Fire Hazard Take a look at the inside picture here:https://hometheaterhifi.com/reviews/amplifier/integrated-amplifiers/nad-m3-integrated-stereo-amplifi...The two round metal covers at the bottom are on top of the transformer. The next 4 round can things abov... | |

| Revel f208, dead center image but everything jumbled up? Like everyone above, the first thing is double check your polarity didn't get reversed. Once that is done....Room acoustics have a lot to do with this...but lets say it's a placement issue. Usually the two culprits is too wide, or toe-in. If you... | |
| Focal 1028Be or JBL L100 classics (your choice) R&R? JBL, kind of no question. :) | |
| So many drivers.....better sound or just more sound? 2 1/2 way speakers have real advantages. Like any other speaker, cons too, but I've sometimes thought that these speakers were the ideal small home speaker. Small foot print, high sensitivity, plenty of bass. Are you going to find some super speak... | |
| Beware of NAD M3 Fire Hazard Have you removed the ground pin?If not, check that your socket is correctly wired. | |
| Power Amplifier Longevity My advice would be to go much much simpler and newer.Get an Anthem MRX 720. Add a stereo amp if and only if required. Trade in your Marantz, and avoid the amp jungle. | |
| Vivaldi, played badly, is the worst classical music on earth Speaking of "as it was intended to be played" ... Read the sections starting at "Intended Tuning"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Well-Tempered_Clavier | |
| Replacing capacitors in Dalquist DQ-10 Speakers I would in fact replace that electrolytic though. You might find it’s better. To be safe, stick to another electrolytic, Belnic, same uF, equal or higher voltage. | |
| Vivaldi, played badly, is the worst classical music on earth It used to be that you just hadn’t "arrived" as an up-and-coming violinist until you had released your own version of The Four Seasons and it did certainly make for some...uh...shall we say, ’wide ranging material’ since it was so evidently op... |
