| Dual SVS PB-1000 Pro versus Dual Rythmik LV12F- does Servo Technology Matter. Rythmik is SOOO much better than SVS. | |
| Speakers for triode tube amps Have you thought about Zu Audio? | |
| 60 Hz Hum from Powered Sub Huh? Two electrolytic caps, you must be kidding. One I serviced, I replaced 42 electrolytic caps and the problem still existed. Only switching to the high level inputs stopped the hum. | |
| 60 Hz Hum from Powered Sub If you're going to open it, be careful to discharge all large electrolytic capacitors through a resistor. These caps can store some high and potentially lethal voltages for a long time. All plate amps I've worked on use 105C capacitors. | |
| 60 Hz Hum from Powered Sub Are you using the low or high level inputs to the sub? If you're using the low, it's probably a bad cap in the subwoofer. You might just try the high level inputs if you have them. I know that cured the hum in my older Sunfire sub years ago. I rep... | |
| Would a type IV cassette sound okay recorded on type II setting? You will not be able to record a type IV metal tape using a deck only capable of type II tape. Type IV tapes require special high-flux magnetic heads and high current amplifiers to magnetize the tape properly. Without the high flux, the recordings... | |
| Douk Audio. Any experience with any of their products? Only their springs and I got a refund on the newer version because I felt duped. They were plastic, not aluminum like the originals. I prefer not to deal with China unless I have no choice, like iPhone. | |

| Monster M1.2s speaker cable: fair price per foot for resale? My opinion, no on Monster, used them. I like silver plated copper. | |
| Does music give you longevity? Yes, helps to lower stress. | |
| Dropouts From Server Is the processor and RAM new or from the failed server? | |
| why would the left channel on my stereo die? Thermal cycling (different coefficients or expansion). | |
| Help me diagnose a terrible new noise from my tube amp!!! +1 pauly. It maybe best to get a good technician involved. | |
| Active VS Passive speakers and, specifically, Elac Navis ARB51 as the active speaker? For your broad requirements, I'd use a combination. Actives for the room you want the best SQ and passives on a switch for other rooms. Understand if you get an active speaker you won't be able to choose the amps or route the amplifier signal to o... |
