| Shouldn’t Do This, but… @rar1 The houses are Victorian. Twelve foot ceilings. Possibility they are knob and tube wiring as my previous apartment was wired this way when built in 1887. | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… @rel Been watching ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’. Anyway, I’m certain that the building inspector has been out. Still it does seem odd that I can’t access the breaker box. Either way, I don’t want to start a fight with the landlord. Do people ever think ... | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… @rodman99999Thanks for the link but wouldn't just a pair of hospital latex gloves achieve the same purpose? | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… @carlsbad2 Here's a review of the charger, https://www.enjoythemusic.com/magazine/equipment/0119/Goal_Zero_Yeti_400_Lithium_Portable_Power_Station_Review.htm @noromance If it's easy to install the Maestro in the charger, then yes, I probably will... | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… @asvjerry Yeah, when I mentioned the NEC citation the landlord became defensive. Also, from looking at the NEC website, it states that they do not determine laws but that some laws are in accordance. Different states have laws of their own. To fin... | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… @noromance I texted the landlord with that NEC citation and that didn’t go over very well. He said, ‘no one goes into the basement without me, why do you need to get into the breaker box’? At which point I made up some nonsense. I’m not living in ... | |
| Shouldn’t Do This, but… Thanks everyone. Overloading the circuit does sound like a good idea. More ways on how to do that? Yes, the outlets are both black! | |
| The Sound Signature of a Headphone Amp @ghdprentice Yes, the problems been identified. My Quads were some of the first built in that factory in China. For whatever reason, they didn’t apply enough adhesive at the glue joints for that grid like structural piece inside the panels. So a g... | |
| HiFi on the Go - Dream or Reality? I looked into the Focal Bathy’s noise cancelling headphones with a DAC chip. They retail for $700.00 which isn’t unreasonable but I found out that the drivers cost Focal around $20.00. That’s also when I was told about how high the mark up is on h... | |
| The Sound Signature of a Headphone Amp @ghdprentice Thanks! My power amp is going to be hard to match. When I upgraded my streamer/renderer to an increase of around $3,500.00, the difference was noticeable but not to the degree I’d anticipated. I’m stuck in my head with the same scenar... | |
| The Sound Signature of a Headphone Amp @ghdprentice I was told by the ASR Amp Designer to use tape outs to connect to a headphone amp. The headphones themselves are low impedance and easy to drive. Probably similar in sound to the Focal Clear MG. There’s a headphone jack in the amp how... | |
| Looking for cable recommendations for sennheiser HD800s I was looking at getting a Lavri cable for a pair of driver type headphones that I had made for me but I was not sure that I could afford what I wanted. Anyway, I then contacted Travis at Corpes Cables and I bought a Gravedigger and am very impres... | |
| Speakers On Wheels? Hi Everyone! I’m really appreciative for the responses I’ve gotten here. I went to Harbor Freight today to buy a Ball Joint tool and looked at the casters they had there. I couldn’t get the ball joint on my car loose but building a dolly seems si... | |
| Speakers On Wheels? @bondmanp Funny, two nights ago I was dreaming about a piano mover bringing my speaker through the window. It may have been raining. But no, I’ll have to recruit a friend to help me bring them up the stairs on a hand truck. @elliottbnewcombjr I wo... | |
| Speakers On Wheels? @tweak1 Yes and carpeted no less. |
