| Compaing the ESS AMT ! and the JBL L100 speakers For me, the ESS will smoke the new JBL's. Haven't compared side by side, but my brother has some original L100's and they sound clear and detailed. I like the ESS because of the dipole tweeters on the big ones, bigger soundstage. Listen to as many... | |
| Deja Vu all over again Nope, just don't like streaming in general. I don't believe the lossless bs, compression sucks. | |
| Tubes for Magnepan’s. So why did we need to see 2 pages of specs on a Benchmark AHB2? That amp must have a TON of feedback! | |
| What’s the relationship between gain (dB) and power (watts)? Yep, but actually your max usable output is about 0.71 of your rail voltages. | |
| Boy, Oh Boy! Towshend! For me, even cheap isolation made a noticeable improvement. | |
| What’s the relationship between gain (dB) and power (watts)? +1 millercarbon, you're spot on. | |
| Cut lower frequency to help my bookshelf speakers I do like the sound of ML, but they DO need peak indicators. How do you know you're not into clipping? My thought is if you are bottoming woofers on large speakers, you ARE into clipping. Make some peak indicators with an LED, resistor and zener d... | |
| Bin dug noisy records. Does it diminish your enjoyment? ibmjunkman - I love my SAE 5000A too. I tend to only use it for vinyl that has a scratch as it does remove some high frequencies, eve when set at the optimal level. It's certainly better than the click, click, click on every revolution! | |

| Cut lower frequency to help my bookshelf speakers 1) The SVS 1000pro does not have a high pass filter. The app is only for the sub, no output to your main speaker amplifier.2) A high pass 12dB/octave slope set at 80Hz. will yield 1/16th power to your Dyna’s at 40Hz., that’s 0.0625 times the power... | |
| Tubes for Magnepan’s. +1 jjss49 - Maggie needs power. If you're not going to listen moderately loud, maybe you can get by with a medium power tube? I would not recommend Schiit, decent on paper but... | |
| Bose 1801 PS. Find a good repair shop! One that has experience repairing THAT amp in particular. Good luck! | |
| Bose 1801 Definitely needs some service, DO NOT run it! That amp is pretty darn good, don't let anyone tell you to dump it. My guess is the repair is not going to be cheap, but say less than $400, get it fixed. If you want to sell it, please contact me. | |
| heat Well, he only listens about once a week and this is a 600+ watt/channel Mac. It is very well designed and can take the on/off without a problem. My SS amps have been switched on/off for 42 years and I haven't had a problem, knock on wood. His McIn... |
