| Help! What's the white glue coming from Celestion SL600SI Any misstep could easily ruin the speaker, I would think. So long as your not a klutz, it will be fine, and you can reseal with more white silicon if needed.And it’s only the sealing compound, not any capacitor electrolyte. The white stuff in the... | |
| Rolling KT150s in Primaluna hp integrated Great idea George! I didn't think of that. I would also mark them so they go back in the same position in the amp.Cheers George | |
| Rolling KT150s in Primaluna hp integrated 1graber2 @georgehifi PrimaLuna emphasizes that they run their tubes about 1/2 -2/3 as hard as other manufacturers in order to NOT overrun the tubes, especially since PL encourages listeners to tube roll with expensive NOS tubes. I believe the am... | |
| Help! What's the white glue coming from Celestion SL600SI Just the sealing compound getting squeezed out, could have been after a very hot day which softened it? If it worries you, undo the tweeter or bass which ever one it's coming from and push it back.Cheers George | |
| Rolling KT150s in Primaluna hp integrated In my case it very well may be that there was more miles on my original KT150s than I realized and that putting in fresh tubes made the difference and it had nothing to do with the cryogenic process. The way to test this, is to send your healt... | |
| Wilson Watt Puppy 7 Blowen tweeters? The WP7's tweeters don't have ferrofluid, but yes on old tweeters that do use it this can be an issue, but it takes a decade or two dry out. Cheers George | |
| Anybody bold enough to try a voltage conversion on your own? Will the units work as the should on 50 hz? Yes, no problems with these audio pieces.Cheers George | |
| How can I tell if I need a better clock for my DAC? Proper spdif connection between transport and dac should be made using 75ohm bnc. rca is not true 75ohm and this can also introduce jitter.https://www.markertek.com/productImage/450X450/B-PF.JPGhttps://www.amphenolrf.com/media/catalog/product/cach... | |
| Wilson Watt Puppy 7 Blowen tweeters? duanea I replaced the diaphragms/voice coil on a friends WP7’s because of a Class-D Nuforce 9se v3 amps VHF switch-on squeal that you can hardy hear, but can be measured, both voice coils were very blue with heat, they were standard Seas, Scan or... | |
| Amp for Paradigm Persona 9H brrgrr Ordered a pair of these speaker s a few days ago, and am looking of amplifier suggestions. For anyone to recommend an amp for these without seeing an impedance v -phase graph which has yet to be done, they'd be p*****g in the wind.Jus... | |
| Rolling KT150s in Primaluna hp integrated Can you guys share your experience on how hot the amp gets with those tubes? Many thanks! From the EL34's 6amp to the KT150's 8amps there will be substantial heater temperature dissipation, if the heater voltage stays at 6.3v and doesn't sag u... | |
| Anybody bold enough to try a voltage conversion on your own? Schematics for ARC preamp and power amp:http://www.arcdb.ws/VT100/VT100.htmlhttp://www.arcdb.ws/LS25/LS25.html Looking at these all have multiple primaries, they both look doable from 110v to 230v.OP, if you need to ask how to do it, DON’T!, get... | |
| Martin Logan speakers jcder I love ML speakers and have owned a few, but with the right amp if your to get the very best from them .Most ML speakers dive down to less than 1ohm in the highs 10-20khz, this could very well reduce the sparkle and extension in the highs, ... | |
| Anybody bold enough to try a voltage conversion on your own? so, where do I begin? Pop off the top and take some photos, and show the community for advice? Yes you could do that, take pics of the primary side of the transformer.If there is only two wires your sunk, but if there are 4 wires that's good.C... | |
