| Biamp question avanti1960 - I don't agree with the benefits you've listed, not even one. Nothing is going to give you a flatter impedance or response curve than eliminating those capacitors and inductors. Together with variable crossover points and or a DSP, you... | |
| Biamp question You can bypass the crossover in the speakers or you can leave it the way it is. The danger of disconnecting the internal crossover and running just copper wire between the low end and mid/high frequency drivers is the risk of damage to the midrang... | |
| Unplugging preamp, amp and cable while music is playing If I were you, I'd make sure this doesn't happen ever, could be expensive. The amount of damage is dependent on the amount of rms power you have and which equipment is turned off or cable unplugged first. | |
| Biamp question oldhvy is correct in the bi-amp method, but an active crossover like russ69 mentioned is the better way to do it. You can limit the bass going to the mid/high frequency amplifier, reducing power and intermodulation distortion. This will make both ... | |
| Biamp question OP you can bi-amp using the internal crossover within the speakers, just remove the jumpers between the LF and HF terminals. That’s not how I would do it, but it is possible. For me, I would follow russ69’s advice. What russ described is not hard ... | |

| Vandersteens-- Removing M5-HPs for a Digital Xover? No disrespect intended. I'm just going by what my ears have told me over the years. | |
| Noisy ethernet cables cindyment - simply not true, demodulation can occur. Erik knows radiated energy is the biggest concern in audio. Best wishes. | |
| Vandersteens-- Removing M5-HPs for a Digital Xover? Johnny - I really doubt that any "charged capacitor" internal crossover networks can compare to an active crossover using multi-amps. Vandersteen has some of the best, but JBL started this 60 - 70 years ago. Unless you've tried eliminating passive... | |
| Not manufactured any more. Very cool oldhvy, I have never seen these before. Made from when to when? Dalquist - Meh, piezo tweeter needs to be replaced in my opinion. Now your love for the KLH 9's, that's my cup of tea! | |
| Furman power strips, love them. No. | |
| Correct ear alignment Here's a tip - Upgrade the Bose system in the 599 GTB. | |
| Technics SU-R1000 - Good but not the king of switching amps Not a disciple of Amir. Can't politely say what ASR really stands for. | |
| How much gear do you own? Too much. I've started thinning out the stuff that I'm least interested in working on or completing Just going to keep a couple of the main components and maybe 10 amplifiers. Still will have a lot in the estate sale! | |
| Projects, rebuilds and or modifications…. Several in the works, currently working on a pair of Yamaha B3's. |
