| Rtr speakers Are you sure it’s the transformer? Has dc resistance changed compared to the working unit? | |
| JBL L100 Classic 75's - Thoughts, Impressions, Serial Numbers I like them, fairly efficient. Early serial number, vertically aligned drivers? Even better. | |
| RGR Model 4 Pre Amp ....HUM QUESTION How long have you had this preamp? Have you made any power amplifier or other changes? These are fairly old and have been known to have some cold solder issues. | |
| Songs that sound like Dylan Why? | |
| AMP STRAIN : Balanced vs RCA Lordy! | |
| What does a subwoofer solve? If you don’t have at least 1 - 2 subwoofers you are missing a lot of low frequency energy that you didn’t even know was present | |
| Question about amplifiers Are you listening in 5.1 channels? | |
| Help! Cure for transformer hum? Change power supply capacitors. | |
| Amp Search and Upgrade My vote goes to a new amp, something with more current capability will astound you. Low impedance speakers need an amplifier with a big power supply! Think Bryson, which also has a very high slew rate. Best wishes. | |
| 43 dB noise level from speaker with amps (not including pre-amp) What dB meter are you using and has it been calibrated to a known standard? If you’re going to mention a specific dB level it should have been calibrated to NIST | |
| Reversing hearing loss with regenerative therapy Interesting article, thanks | |
| Subwoofer Trouble shooting advice Equipment models would help if you haven’t solved | |
| AR-2ax. On the Prowl. Typical Issues??? Sounds like a fun project, thanks for the trip down memory lane. The first time I heard the same was in 1971. Before then I had only heard Sansui and Pioneer. That day I realized how much better sound could get. | |
| AN Niobium versus Tantalum resistors? Just not with a pen | |
| AMP STRAIN : Balanced vs RCA No amp strain with either. The consensus is balanced has higher CMRR but really only needed for long runs. I’m still using unbalanced but went from RCA to BNC connectors as I’ve found connectors are the weakest link |
