| How do I hook up 2 preamps to one amp .what Elevick said is the answer - both of his posts.BDG, no, he said to run the Lexicon through tape loop which will not work. In fact, I don't really know what that means. How do you "run something through the tape loop"? What you said will work... | |
| How do I hook up 2 preamps to one amp .Elizabeth,What he said about the tape loop or what he said about just using the Lexicon?. | |
| How do I hook up 2 preamps to one amp .I considered that too but since I have no experience with either decided not to comment.. | |
| Sending pre in for service, need volume controller .Can you solder? You can build one with Radio Shack parts for $20 or so.Google "passive preamp diy" for info.. | |
| How do I hook up 2 preamps to one amp .When you use the splitter you are effectively hooking the 2 preamp outputs together which is never a good idea.I haven't used a tape loop in a while but I don't believe that would work as described. The tape in from the Lexicon would be controlle... | |
| SET amp recommendation .If the 12 ohm load of the zeroformers remains relatively flat a 300b amp would love this load.As long as you can live with the loss of power. I believe these calculations are correct.from 12 to 4 ohms is 3:1 for the impedance ratiotake the square... | |
| SET amp recommendation .You don't really have an SET friendly set up at least for your typical 2.5 watt 2A3 or 8 watt 300B amp. Doesn't your speaker manufacturer recommend at least 50 watts?If your speakers are 91 dB 4 ohm and you multiplied it up to 12 ohms the trade o... | |
| SET amp recommendation .Yet another thread with too little information.......You had a 50 watt SET so I'm thinking a 1 Watt SET might not work well for you but just a guess with so little info.What speakers do you have, how efficient are they, what kind of music do you ... | |
| Is this preamp mod to reduce gain advisable? .too little infoAre you talking about a transformer on the phono input or the power transformer but the latter doesn't make much sense?Which preamp?Why do you want to reduce the gain? I agree that the closer you operate any volume control to wide ... | |
| Ref 3 Impedence Mismatch HELP please . the output impedance of the ARC goes higher as the frequency goes lower.Good point, any idea how much that would be? I have no idea what size caps they use. There is no good way to fix this- either Bigger caps? I realize that most would be reluc... | |
| cd player or computer with dac .Jtinn,If I recall correctly at one time your were registered as a private user and posting high praise about things you were selling with no mention of your affiliation. With that in mind I did think a warning was in order. I see now that you cha... | |
| cd player or computer with dac .You sayThere is a DAC manufacturer that is very well knownWhy play a guessing game?Why not name this mysterious manufacturer ?. | |
| cd player or computer with dac .Just an FYI for anybody new to the forums.....Audioengr and Jtinn both are selling something. I've never dealt with either but it is incomprehensible that someone who is selling a product in this category wouldn't have a biased opinion that favor... | |
| Ref 3 Impedence Mismatch HELP please ..So 600 out to 10K in? Lower than I would like but not a gross mismatch as it is about 1 to 15. Most recommend a minimum of 1 to 10. With your system it seems a shame to add a buffer, why not get a Krell preamp? I doubt you will find a tube line ... | |
| Mac Mini vs. Macbook Pro as a server .I have a question about "stripped of internal power supply"Correct me if I'm wrong but the supply is a single DC voltage. Doesn't that mean there are some DC-DC converters to supply the 5V for USB and Firewire, I imagine the processor runs off a ... |
