| What do I do with a FedEx claim denial? I also think that Viggen is way off base on this one. If FedEx paid on anything damaged no matter how it was packaged, they would either soon be out of business or insurance would be very, very expensive.People would go into business just shipping... | |
| Regulated Power Supply- what does it do/mean? Your definition of fully regulated is correct. That brings up several considerations for a particular component 1. Does it use regulated supplies? Many don't. It is unusual to have regulated supplies in the output stages of power amps and many tub... | |
| Have you tried "doping" your speaker cones? My apologies for the hobby shop suggestion, looks like I may be the dope. | |
| What do I do with a FedEx claim denial? I am not a lwayer. But it looks to me like you are the "piece of work". You admit that it was not packaged properly and still expect FedEx to pay? How in the world do you come to the conclusion that FedEx is responsible for your inability to prope... | |
| Help I got a big time Hum in my system Do you have cable TV connected to it? If you do, disconnect and see if it goes away. If it does, search past threads on how to corect this problem. | |

| WATT Puppy 6's are being discontinued... At first glance it is easy to agree with Ezmaralda, but I agree with Jfrech. Most high end is a 60% business. So a $20,000 pair of speakers is $12,000 to the dealer. The dealer will discount them and has to cover his expenses so not a great deal i... | |
| Have you tried "doping" your speaker cones? The big problem I see with this is that it is not reversible. What do you do if it sounds worse? If the drivers are cheap it might be worth a try. You can get dope at your local hobby shop. Model airplane builders put it on the paper wings to make... | |
| looking for inexpensive speaker spikes? Go to the hardware store and buy some 1/4" x 20 bolts and nuts. Grind the heads of the bolts to a point. Be sure to wear your safety goggles. Screw the flat end into the sub and lock in place with the nuts. You can vary the taper of the point or t... | |

| Phase inverting preamps Ok, you guys are right. If major manufacturers like CJ don't use the term correctly, it silly of me to think that I could have any impact. Don Quixote, windmills, that sort of thing.On second thought, it has always bothered me that the weatherman ... | |
| Phase inverting preamps Bowbow, I understood what you posted and I agree except for the part about DC current. You are right that it does not feed current in both directions at the same time. The current is AC, it alternates. First it flows in one direction and then the ... | |
| I need help with getting monies back This is a legal question, not a stereo question. You need the advice of an attorney, not an audiophile. | |
| Phase inverting preamps Sugarbrie, I think you still have phase and polarity mixed up. I read the web site you point out and he describes it correctly. But your explanation does not mesh with his. I do not intend to be picking on you as most of the other peolpe who have ... | |
| Phase inverting preamps Paulwp, It seems to me that if we are to have an intelligent discussion about all things audio, then we should use the correct terminology. Since phase and polarity are so frequently misused and confused, I thought I would try to help by offering ... |
