| Do powercords make a difference in sound? Computers and portable appliances did help make the detachable universal IEC connectors popular. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_60320] | |
| Dedicated circuit picking up noise You have two phase (hot) lines coming into your home that should be split roughly 50/50 to all your outlets. So the new new line could be tied to the same hot side of the two hot lines in your box. There is still the other line to try, that will s... | |
| Cartridge for a vintage Sansui table/arm This is the full number, M97xe. This place has a good price.[http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/205325-REG/Shure_M97XE_M97XE_High_Accuracy_Turntable.html] | |
| MC 2505 The manual doesn't give that option. [http://www.berners.ch/McIntosh/Downloads/MC2505_own.pdf] | |
| Final verdict with amplifier After further thought, on reading the "it didn't harm my speakers" statement, there is a possibility a little harm could have been done, if you drove them past their design limits. When speakers voice coils get to warm, the varnish insulator break... | |
| Bi-Amping 2 Interconnects or Y Cable? I don't know if there are any high end Y adapters. I would look for something that at least has good RCA's on it with good plating, and tight fitting. Possibly even Monster, but I just looked at some on Google, and look like they may have their "T... | |
| I am looking to get more bass out of my system I agree with the speaker placement too. Another possibility is raising the cutoff frequency of the sub (if powered and adjustable) and see if it blends in ok and sounds better. | |
| Do powercords make a difference in sound? I missed this thread. You could add me to the third camp. Almarg provided excellent reasoning as to what it's about.As far as the OP of this thread, if you want too see if you get any benefit, try one on a returnable basis. While comparing, have a... | |
| Final verdict with amplifier I can't see a Klipsch speaker needing any high power like that, at least the ones I've heard or seen the specs. Bridging any amp never worked for my ears. Don't forget, your doubling basically all of the signal path components. That must be why it... | |
| Cleaning and Maintenance of Connections..... I wouldn't use any cleaner/chemicals in an outlet. These are self cleaning. Maybe unplug and plug your component once a month, just a rough guess. It depends on your climate, air leakage through the outlets etc. No cleaner is safer because you don... | |
| I Pick up a Radio Station when I am playing record Check the ground wire between turntable and preamp and, make sure it is connected good at both ends. | |
| I NEED a tone control to control bass. Good headphones? | |
| Sagging Voice Coils? After looking at it and reading it again, they may also be concerned that the person doesn't push the former all the way down, and bottom it out especially more so, since they use shims. | |
| Sagging Voice Coils? The article should be more specific. They should state something in the order that the sag could cause it to be off center. I think their main concern is to get the person doing it with no knowledge, good even clearance around the coil. If they're... | |
| Why do NOS Tubes sound better than new tubes? Also Western Electric and RCA in the film industry sought after better sound. Most likely another big profit area. |
