| Help! Power question Call an electrician. There is probably a loose lug connection in the meter pan or main panel on one of the phases. | |
| What is an acceptable level of transformer hum on a Krell S300i? If the hum appears to be greater than 60 hz and floating the ground does not help, it could very well be the power supply capacitors need replacing. | |
| Shipping damage...what would cause capacitors to leak? That may not be a capacitor and instead could be melted rubber. Is there any sound dampening material in the chassis? The only sure way to know is for a tech to look at it.Capacitors can withstand temperatures to 85C or higher. I doubt the tempera... | |
| Streaming Music and being able to keep them as your personel files You may want to contact Tidal support and ask them how to transfer their property onto your laptop. The only way I know of is to purchase the tracks/albums you want to keep after your subscription. | |

| MQA and the "Pre Ring - Post Ring" Hoax IMO, it's not the filter ringing or time smearing that MQA uses to justify its existence -- it's the fact that my internet speed is over 60 Mbps and a 24/192 file needs 4.6 Mbps to stream so I see no reason for MQA to be even economically viable a... | |
| Minimum recommended amplification requirements and amplifier matching I would recommend a preamp with a gain of over 20 with a tube amp. My CAT preamp with a gain of 26 drives my 3 watt 2A3 amp to realistic levels connected to a pair of 86 db Thiel 3.6's. Of course that applies to things like solo instrument and cha... | |
