| Lone star audio fest Sounds like a great excuse to drive over & pig out on some Terry Blacks beef ribs! | |
| ??? 240 Volt Power Conditioner ??? Ughhh,back to square 1..The Furman is 50 hz. operation & I need 240v/60hz... | |
| Odeon Rigoletto - tweeter buzz OP Can you tell if the buzzing sound is coming from inside the amp? Power up the amp,turn the volume all the way down & put your ear right next to the amp to see if it's coming from inside... If you don't hear it coming from inside look to a... | |
| Building a second, vinyl focused system. Speaker advice needed! (<$10k) While I've never had a chance to demo them,I read good things about Daedalus Audio.. I have heard 3 different models from Focus Audio & I have to say,if I had the room & they were not so damn heavy I would have bought a pair years ago! | |
| Odeon Rigoletto - tweeter buzz My first thought is a transformer buzzing,possibly due to delamination..If you have spare tubes,which anyone who owns a tube amp should have,you can try replacing the tubes 1 at a time & see if the buzz goes away,meaning it was a bad tube, but... | |
| !!!OK OK - I'm Big Enough To Admit I Was DEAD WRONG!!! Class D Doesn't Always Suck!!! @erik_squires true.There are many small Class D integrated amps available nowdays BUT the Creek & Wyred For Sound mINT are the only ones I found that are user convertible from 120 to 240 volt operation with just the flip of a switch! | |
| !!!OK OK - I'm Big Enough To Admit I Was DEAD WRONG!!! Class D Doesn't Always Suck!!! @decooney when the Creek first came in I still had a pair of Quad 11L speakers on the stands..These speakers had a 6 ohm nominal dropping to 3.8 ohms in the lower treble & the Creek had no problems driving them to a steady 95db.with no harshne... | |

| Guitar lacking bite, vocal lacking presence OP,when I posted my reply ( first reply in thread) I hadn't seen that HORRIBLE power strip you've got there..I do agree with others that is is possible this could be the culprit...Do yourself a favor & at least spend a couple hundred $ & g... | |
| Guitar lacking bite, vocal lacking presence Looking at your system my first thought is- have your ears cleaned & get an accurate hearing test... People in general,and audiophiles in particular,have no clue how much gunk can be lurking in the depths of their ear canels.. Your speakers... | |
| ??? 240 Volt Power Conditioner ??? Mission accomplished... Bought one of the Trip Lite Isobars to feed the Lenova laptop for $35.00 & found that Furman offers a 220/240 volt model,the AC-210A E,which only cost me $200.00...Ughhhh,now I have to sort out a couple of decent powe... | |
| ??? 240 Volt Power Conditioner ??? @jea48 ..Yes I am very familiar with the grid in the Philippines,having been there several times now..Fortunately I will be splitting my time living in several of the larger metropolitan areas of Manila,Cebu & Davos so not too worried about ov... | |
