XLR or single ended cables and why? Shadorne - If implemented properly a balanced component uses differential circuitry throughout - each phase (+ and -) of the signal has its own signal path. There are pros and cons to this, but it is far more than just another connector type. Ther... | |
Hooking up two Rel Storm III's to Pass Labs X-350 With a single sub, the sub will sum the signal on the red and yellow leads, low pass filter it, send it to the internal sub amp, then on to the speaker. With two subs I see two possibilities:1) Attach the red lead from one sub to the right amp cha... | |
Is the Eico HF 81 really that good? It's funny. I've never heard this unit, but in EICO's heyday in the mid 60's I was into amateur radio. EICO was one of many suppliers of kits to this market. Their stuff included transmitters, receivers, and test gear (oscilloscopes, voltmeters, e... | |
SACD & HDCD HDCD starts with 88.2 khz sampling @ 20 bits. The HDCD encodes processes this data stream by performing sample rate conversion. Based on instantaneous signal content it then chooses from a collection of digital processes to reduce the 20 bit data ... | |

Aragon 24K preamp Aragon was bought by Klipsch. They have most of the old Aragon product manuals on line, but I don't see the 24K. Perhaps you could email them.http://www.klipsch.com/product/list.aspx?line=1263&type=All | |
Time to sell my dvd collection? I don't know guys, but I have a DVHS deck that i got as a floor demo from Best Buy last year, and a half dozen prerecorded DVHS tapes. The tapes are digitally mastered at 1080i native resolution (digital, not analog format). The improvement over t... | |
Is this safe? Option 1) You won't hurt anything but each source will see as its load the output impedance of the of the other source in parallel with the input impedance of the preamp. Since the sources will generally have a low output impedance this usually re... | |
Wadia 25 It's basically a Wadia 16 without the transport - same digital and analog circuitry. It's a 32x oversampler. I had one for about 6 months and only sold it because I ran across a Wadia 9. | |
Help Me Explain Power Cables to my Guitar Friends Piezo, I think you missed my point. Like it or not, many classic guitar amp sounds are the result of imperfection and happy accidents. Consider the classic Marshall, Fender, and Vox amps as examples.That doesn't mean that you can't build a premium... | |
Help There is a clicking sound in my ripped audio I don't know what CDs you're ripping, but a lot of newer rap/pop CDs include copy protection, which produces clicks and pops in the copies. Some players also have problems with these disks. | |
Guitar player? , What model do you own or play? Steinberger GL (original model, not musicyo), Parker Classic, Yamaha SBG-3000 (like it better than the Les Pauls I've owned), ES-175, ES-347, Ovation SMT, Ovation Classic.Amps: Soldano Decatone combo, Groove Tube Soul-O 70, Hughes and Kettner Zent... | |
Help Me Explain Power Cables to my Guitar Friends Lkdog, you might have a point about the modeling amp. I use an Hughes and Kettner Zentera modeler around the house for practice (decent tones and flexability at low volume). I'll have to swap on a good power cord just for grins. For playing out (r... | |
is it just me, new Steely Dan cd's too brite snare Audiotomb, I politely beg to differ. Automated drum tracks are all over the later Steely Dan works. One example that's really easy to hear is towards the end of the final vamp on "West of Hollywood" on 2AN. You can hear the unmistakable sound of a... | |
'warm' cables? I'd add Acoustic Zen Matrix Reference to the list. |
