| Wilson Audio floor jack This is Handymann again. I didn't go in to too much detail. I actually saw an exact clone, of the jack used by Wilson for $199.00 and an audio enthusiast was saying he had bought one for his Maxx II's. I thought I would be able to find it agai... | |
| Wilson Audio floor jack I found almost an exact replacement for the Wilson floor jack, about six months ago, but didn't write the brand or website down. Help | |
| Pre-amp upgrade time? Everyone's preference is different. If u want really tight bass, but smooth highs and mids, try tubes in the front with a beefy SS power amp. Class A bias is best for that quick and tight bottom end. I have had a couple of Krell power amps and a... | |
| High Current Outlet for Amps? I have two Krell 600 class "A" bias monoblocks, each plugged into a higher quality medical 20 amp outlets. The cost for the high current outlet is about $20 at any Lowes. I have seen $200 audiophile outlets advertised, but...that's another can o... | |
| Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? I have some ocean front property for sale in Arizona. | |
| Power Cable DIY - Please advise I would consider these fore mentioned improvements in sound associated with psychoacoustics. If you think you hear an improvement in the sound, that's all that matters. I remember back in the seventies, probably before a lot of you were even bor... | |
| Power Cable DIY - Please advise Through the years, I have read all the posts concerning expensive power cords and such. We all want better sound, but I can't get my head around how an expensive power cord in series with house romex wiring and power amps and such can possibly imp... | |
| Wilson Maxx II problem I've learned a lot , although it be through other dealers who took time to talk to me. The woofer is matched somewhat to the crossover network I didn't really understand at first and being from Missouri, I had to be shown or I this case taught. | |
| Wilson Maxx II problem Luckily for me, the damage isn't that bad. I can listen at normal to moderately high volume levels, before it starts to break up. I have as much time as I need, to research all scenarios. I'm still waiting to hear back from Wilson, to find out ho... | |
| Wilson Maxx II problem Thanks Peter. I will be moving soon, so I'm going to get it done, while I'm otherwise occupied. I can still play it at 3/4 power and hear any problem, so I will keep it down, while I'm waiting. | |
| Wilson Maxx II problem Has anyone ever heard of a woofer being matched to a specific serial number and crossover? I would a think a Wilson 13" woofer, would be the same, whether it was going in a Maxx II or any number of Maxx III's. To me, that's like saying a cartrid... | |
| Wilson Maxx II problem :( I'm sure it's my woofer and I agree-the replacement price is in line with the cost of the speaker. Was just hoping for another solution. Any others out there will a comment? | |
| Should I buy a Class A Amp. Class A amps are very quick and alive. There is no substitute for a good Class A bias amp. I have had both PassLabs and Krells. Both are good, but you can't beat a Krell. I have two 600E's and they have never disappointed. | |
| Is it possible to be an audiophile and be happy with what you have There is almost always room for improvement on your sound, but some of the tweaks are ridiculous and some people "buy" right in to them. If you're looking for a huge improvement in your sound, as most of us are, I would suggest concentrating on t... | |
| Proper Room Acoustics/Designs I must have not done a very good job of describing the room. There won't be any drywall-at all. 2 x 12's on all 6 walls, floor, etc. Sound diffusers and bass traps will be incorporated in the walls where ever is needed. The bass traps are like Hem... |
