| best non-guitarist, guitar players are..? The late Frank Zappa. | |
| WHOA This isn't what I expected. I picked up a PA-7 cheap a few years ago. It makes a pretty good subwoofer amp (its current use), but I don't like it as a full range amp. It might work on the bass section of your new speakers.As for durability, I know a guy who used one for year... | |
| Sophomore Slump? The best 2nd albums of all time Steely Dan - Countdown to EcstasyMahavishnu Orchestra (John McLaughlin) - Birds of Fire | |
| Who Was Your Favorite One Hit Wonder Smoke of a Distant Fire - Sanford Townsend BandAlso vote for Green Eyed Lady - Sugarloaf. That was the first tune that came to mind, but the first reply beat me to it. | |
| MC or MM? Actually, the Grados are Moving Iron (MI) - a variation on the MM theme. A Moving Iron cartridge uses a fixed coil and fixed magnets. The stylus is attached to a small piece of magnetically permeable metal (such as iron) located in the magnetic ci... | |
| Different HDTV signals? All HDTV is 16:9 widescreen. It sounds like you're getting a non HDTV digital feed from the cable. Also, remember that not all network shows are broadcast HDTV. | |
| Compatibility of 8 ohm amp with 4 ohm speakers? Typically I'd expect the marketing people to publish the amp's 4 ohm spec if it had a good one. | |
| CD Cutting and / or Trimming I'd be reluctant to do anything to the CD that might breach the outer layer of the CD expose the inner reflective layer to the atmosphere, thus inviting corrosion and destruction of the CD. Has this been a problem? | |
| Compatibility of 8 ohm amp with 4 ohm speakers? If the amp has no 4 ohm rating, you run the risk of it overheating or being shut down by its protection circuitry, if any. 4 ohms will require more current (but less voltage) from the amp to deliver the same power into a 4 ohm load as into an 8 oh... | |
| is a 555:1 impedance ratio ok? Drubin is right. The active circuitry in the EQ isolates the input impedance from the output impedance. | |
| is a 555:1 impedance ratio ok? Yes, you need to match the preamp to the EQ box. I don't think you'll have any problem - the input impedance will likely be at least 75K, and as others have mentioned, that is high enough.Good luck. | |
| Logarithmic Frequency response graphs Because it tends to make high frequency irregularities look less significant - good marketing. | |
| is a 555:1 impedance ratio ok? In that case, it's the Theil EQ box that's driving your power amps. The output impedance of your preamp is irrelevant as far as your power amps are concerned. The Theil EQ box will eliminate any direct interaction between preamp and power amps. I ... | |
| Unlytic v.s. Electrolytic... It looks like the UNLYTICS are a metal film capacitor, definitely a step up from an electrolytic from a quality standpoint.An electrolytic capacitor's main feature is that it can pack a lot of capacitance in a small package. The UNLYTICS don't see... | |
| Pass Aleph 1.2 monos- do they have any 'soul'? I own a pair of 1.2's and find that they can be quite captivating and involving - they can really draw you into the music. As mentioned above, they don't sound like tubes exactly, but have a lot more body and focus than many SS amps and more sheer... |
