| Is bi amping really a trade off? each channel may be seeing 16 ohms nominalThis was in my first post and in error. I was thinking the highs are easier to drive and may see less power when on a separate amp. | |
| Is bi amping really a trade off? Magfan, I haven't owned a B&W since they went toward metal dome tweeters, and I don't keep up with them to much anymore. I'm just thinking it is hard to put a set figure with too many variables. These three speakers will give totally different... | |
| Is bi amping really a trade off? Also, with the load shifting toward the low end, the OP said his "bass tightened up and went lower". | |
| Is bi amping really a trade off? 11-17-11: MagfanWith a 4khz crossover, at least 80% of the power required for 'normal' music is below that frequency. I think it varies a lot depending on the speakers impedance curve, besides the music, and crossover point. Every speaker amp and ... | |
| Is bi amping really a trade off? If I'm looking at the right amp on the net, the PA-5800 is a 5 channel. If your using 4 of these channels, I can see the volume and wattage drop. This would be due to a lighter load on each channel of the amp. I believe each channel will be puttin... | |
| Testing a GZ-37 tube I think these are ok to try. It's hard as the sources from Europe and UK are a little different values, plus different specs from different brands in some cases. I hope these will work. PX25, CV1040, VR40, PP5/400, if your tester has a setting for... | |
| Can anyone recommend a better rectifier tube? 11-14-11: DodgealumI'm trying to persuade Sophia Electric to make a 5AR4/GZ34 rectifier tube that would replace the Mullard NOS in my Modwright LS100. Just to be on the safe side, don't try a 5AR4 in an amp that calls for a 5R4. The 5R4 can handle... | |
| Testing a GZ-37 tube Looking on the net shows them (CV378/GZ37) as the same. If you don't have the settings on your other testers, using the 5AR4/GZ34 will give close, but not exact readings I believe. | |
| RFI from steel TV bracket? Possibly, the interconnects to the amp aren't shielded and picking it up(?) or, if this TV is a Plasma, they do give more interference. | |
| Do you use variable speed on your turntable? Pardon the grammar. | |
| Do you use variable speed on your turntable? If all their planning on doing is eliminating the error correction every night, I don't think anyone will notice except those who still use synchronous clocks. If this is the case, we have that error every day now. | |
| Which is more accurate: digital or vinyl? 11-07-11: UnsoundHifihvn, no, not unless the analog tape's sampling is very much larger than microscopic.Unsound (System | Threads | Answers | This Thread)After thinking about it more, we do hear the hiss from audio tape, even on the masters. I ac... | |
| I have a AC Regenerator. Get dedicated line too? Alonski, that would be in reference to the comment made stating they regenerate the power, not make it perfect. And it appears that some believe a regenerators output would be influenced by its input. Also, an upgraded power cord should be used be... | |
| I have a AC Regenerator. Get dedicated line too? They do recommend a dedicated 30 amp line for the model #3000. Being what it is capable of giving out what it does, that sure makes sense. Getting something for nothing would put it in the Perpetual Motion category. [http://www.purepoweraps.com/pd... | |
| I have a AC Regenerator. Get dedicated line too? I guess someone needs to tell Pure Power their site is wrong. A power cord that's the same gauge wire won't change any current an amp draws.
