What To Replace A Pair Of Lamm Ml2 Monoblocks With? Need More Power
If you can find a pair of ML 2s!Surely, they keep doubling as the impedance drops.The Lamms surely do not. Which "would" prove wattage is not the issue!! Current is!But the Speltz Zeros may address the impedance issue. And that’s a band-aid fix at... 
Cable Elevators
Please read the comments from Deborah:During the middle of one song (I had my eyes closed) ,Chuck took the cables off the Cable Elevators; I immediately heard the sound become distorted and muddy.BS, it was you or whoever wandering around betwee... 
What To Replace A Pair Of Lamm Ml2 Monoblocks With? Need More Power
nightfall OP The Lamms are 18wpc, the Vandersteens need 75-100, at least. That is the issue. I’m sure we could put that prognosis to bed, if you put a pair of same wattage, 20w Mark Levinson ML2’s on them, then that would show wattage is maybe no... 
Quad 909 oscillating. Why?
Was it HF "squeal" type oscillation, or LF "motor boating" oscillation.If LF you may not of heard it through the ESL’ as they are transformer coupled and may not go low enough to produce it.Try disconnecting the pre and interconnects and shorting ...

Amplifying? Yes, and all the other parameters an amp has to measure well for, and to get the best from speakers and their unique individual different loadings.

Or do do you believe in absolutes? I would never buy an amp that measures like ****, and yet a reviewer says it sounds fantastic.I need an amp to measure well for the purpose I intend to use it for, and if the reviewer say it sounds good drivin...

Then why should we place faith in other Stereophile reviews? You need to understand the measurements also, that way you can form a judgement if the reviewer is full of it or not.If you don't understand the measurements as well your just p*****g...

But George, what about the fact that every year there are at least a decent handful of components that don’t measure very well but are subjectively loved by the reviewer and they get put into the class A category? What are we totake from that? ... 
Does removing "interface jitter" help, if my source has jitter?
I knew I could count on you, George…(it’s been a loooooooong time since I’ve been called sunshine). Well you were applauding and doing cartwheels like an excitable school girl, after only 12hrs and 3 posts of starting the thread up and asking the ...

What To Replace A Pair Of Lamm Ml2 Monoblocks With? Need More Power
nightfall OP Vandersteen 5a’s If you want the very "best" out of themWould be good if you can find a impedance/phase angle graph on these. Then it will be easy to find what your Lam’s were lacking, wattage or current or both. As nice as the 6c33... 
Does removing "interface jitter" help, if my source has jitter?
Any jitter on S/Pdif will be suppressed. It doesn’t matter what introduced this jitter (CDP or digital cable). It’s unanimous! Almost unheard-of on Agon.Little too quick on the trigger there sunshine If this were correct there would be no differe... 
Finally found a space for the speakers I’ve been storing... and I don’t love them any more
Revel F208.  You don't really have the amplification "balls" to drive these properly in the bass, they are a savage load from 20hz through to 150hzhttps://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?attachments/revel-f208-tower-speaker-impedance-...
