| Original avantgarde uno Vs current Uno It is well documented on the Avantgarde website. | |
| Need help on power supply caps There is a circuit board trace from the lug to whatever it connects to, so I don't think adding a few inches of wire would hurt. Besides, you really don't have a choice.The issue with bigger caps in the power supply is that the in-rush current whe... | |

A well designed regulator will also by definition ke... | |

| Cool strings finds Thanks for your review, I am always on the lookout for good performances. I think we sometimes get caught up in sonics and ignore the performance. | |
| Non inverting polarity? You are correct that some manufacturers use 2 for non-inverted and some use 3.All sound starts out being single ended in the sense that there are compressions and rarefactions in the air that can be coverted to a corresponding electrical signal wi... | |
| Canon to RCA adaptors Edesilva, Canon is synonymous with XLR. They were first manufactured by Canon with a part number that started with XLR and both terms became common ways to refer to them. I would go with adapters. Cheaper. | |
