| Dedicated Line Noise Filter? @lowrider57 Don't let it get to you. Your electrician probably did everything to code.B | |
| Amp recommendations +1 atmasphere.Do you think the Zero's would allow him to use the integrated Mac's (that sounds a bit racist, doesn't it?).B | |
| Fuses fuses fuses @tubegroover I concur.I feel that aftermarket fuse manufacturers are simply cashing in on the fuse upgrade mentality. Are there differences-Yes. Are they worth the money-YMMVB | |
| What is your speaker ownership history since 1995? For me, just Vandies3a sigsTreo's- Thanks ctsooner.And, a pair of 2w subs.B | |
| Help with new setup Line magnetic 508 and Tekton speakers wanting to play digital. I own the Codex(actually 2, now), and recommend it highly.I use it with a Bluesound Node so I can wirelessly play music throughout the house. I suggest looking at the Bluesound website.

| Oldest gear still for sale is . . . Wasn't reel to reel around in the 40's. Ampex?B | |

| Dedicated Line Noise Filter? For $750 you would be done with the problem, rather than adding another component/layer. Even better if you can buy yourself for less.Your electrician seems to be a good guy, if he lets you provide materials.Though, if you let him install the bran... | |
| Amp recommendations Perhaps a pair of Zero Auotoformers would help tame the low impedance difficulties? Then you could use just about any amp, maybe even the Mac integrated- though I would call them up and confirm.B | |
| Dedicated Line Noise Filter? @lowrider57 How expensive was the surge protector with noise filtering? It would seem to be the right way to go, in my opinion.B | |
| RI - 500 Lightning strikes per minute?!! Perhaps political commentary should be posted elsewhere, but these are strange times.B | |
| Fuses fuses fuses @atmasphere Sorry if I put words in your mouth. I appreciate that you have clarified what I thought you meant. -That was why I posted if there was a way to insure a fuse would have complete contact in a fuse holder.Bob | |
| Fuses fuses fuses @zavato I tried to warn you... are specialty fuses supplied as original equipment, and directivity. I don't fully understand the question you asked. Do you mean aftermarket fuses already installed by the manufacturer?If so, I doubt any put the... | |
| Amp recommendations ML's are nice speakers. You are going through the proper route, in my opinion. Thankfully, BestBuys didn't sell you anything else.McIntosh is also wonderful, but pricey. You can do just as well with more moderately priced equipment. Being a Vander... |
