| Digital coax from CD player to DAC, RCA or BNC-RCA? For me BNC connectors are the best. I'm not a big fan of adapters, but if you cannot replace the RCA's with BNC's on both the cable and equipment, then Sliver Shadow would probably be a good option. I have found that the connectors are usually the... | |
| Sony TA-E77ESD Preamp Not Working If it were me, I'd try operating all switches and controls a few time to see if it might be a poor switch contact. If that doesn't work, take the cover off and look for any connectors that may have come loose during the move. Sony typically uses a... | |

I have a variac and use it often on old equipment. For me, I wouldn't even use it for these Fishers if what you're saying is accur... | |
| Economical CD Transport - Thoughts? Cambridge Audio was good when it worked. Never tried Audiolab. | |
| Considering ditching 5.1 for a soundbar; suggestions? I've purged my entire surround sound system from the house. Now only use 2 channel for both main room and bedrooms for all program material. Subs only in the main listening room. Sound bar just didn't cut it for me, even in the bedroom. | |

| What capacitor would you use to upgrade Wharfedale Linton 85th Anniversary? I'm still learning about charge coupled networks. | |
| Porsche OP, very cool, thanks. | |
| Strata mini company AV123. Please help!!! You need to unsolder the capacitors in order to really test them correctly. A service manual would be nice to have. If it were me, I would replace all electrolytic capacitors. It sounds like a shorted cap if the replacement transistors are getting... |
