MC loading at 47K Audiofeil, one ohm is a real heavy load, to heavy for any cartridge. 47,000 ohms is a light load. To light for a lot of people. Zero ohms is a direct short. | |
Sony SACD 5400 ES: how to get it in standby ? Sony has a tendency to do that. I have a Panasonic DVD recorder that is a little more polite. It flashes between "please" and "wait" during power down. Some remote units have an extra switch in the back of it to turn off the remote receiver, when ... | |
The sound of glasswear A couple of links of the net about newer amps still going DC, and blowing speakers. [http://www.diyaudio.com/forums/solid-state/116149-cambridge-audio-a5i-blown-speakers.html][http://www.htguide.com/forum/printthread.php4?t=34748] | |

The sound of glasswear A lot of amps go DC by accident. Different songs with different volume, Accidentally cueing down with volume up. Years back I had company with kids, they ran through the room (when they weren't supposed to,not mine) and bumped right into my rack. ... | |

Disappointing Evening That was or is B&O's selling point. Maybe it does work. Bose and their tiny speakers have to be the main reason for people buying them. I guess you need to invite audiophiles over for the tube gear. They'll probably stop, take a quick glance a... | |
The sound of glasswear 03-20-11: Wolf_garciaI thought the era of amp related blown speakers was over...maybe 20 years ago. Even while running sound at concerts using thousand watt pro amps I haven't had those issues since maybe 1977...am I lucky? (rhetorical question...... | |

New Transformer possible? You could also try isolating it. Try several layers of good Scotch 33 or 88 electrical tape between the metal to metal mounts. Tighten the screws back down enough to make it secure, but not super tight. Try this method if the above doesn't work. T... | |
MC loading at 47K Sounds great. | |
Two things about tubes 03-20-11: Ddd1Don't be afraid to name names guys. It's nice your amps are quiet but how can we find a quiet one unless we know which ones they are?Ddd1 (Threads | Answers | This Thread)After having so many different combination's of gear, this one... |
