Purpose of using same speakers for surround? Thus, I believe the bookshelf speakers from the "M" series with the same drivers would achieve my goal. If I am incorrect in my assumption here guys, again, please let me know!I think everything in the ballpark of approximately 80-20kHz should sou... | |
Bob Carver 180 Mono-blocks perform superbly 01-02-12: ThankfulWe all have our personal preferences in regards to solid state or tubes, etcI agree. I just can't figure out why a person who apparently likes solid state (E.g. Johnnyb53) posts on tube amp threads.I still wonder if Bob Carver is... | |
Bob Carver 180 Mono-blocks perform superbly Johnnyb53, apparently you don't read the articles and how many times he stated he is not a tube person (since he dumped tubes for transistors). He never had a tube amp from about '93, til recent. Oh yes, from what I remember in his interviews, he ... | |

Speaker Burn In? I haven't ever bought a speaker that wasn't enjoyable when new, out of the box, that was a keeper. Anything else that was new that didn't sound satisfying to begin with, wasn't a keeper either. There shouldn't be that much of a change. I've never ... | |
looking for advice on bookshelf speakers These test results show a resonance that will irritate some people. I had to leave the room they were in, when I heard them. The one may be right above 20kHz, but is heard by myself, and a young couple (newlywed?) that ordered them without hearing... | |
Vintage or new turntable I don't have any model to recommend, but be careful about spending money on an old one that says restored, refurbished, or something in that order. Some will just shine and polish them, clean and re-oil them. A polish job and new oil doesn't fix a... | |
looking for advice on bookshelf speakers Go with soft dome tweeters. Stay away from a metal dome. | |
power cable length importance Jea48, we do have ties to the actual grid. Even our cable company complained about the power from the substation feeding my neighborhood. The transformers don't give total isolation. A slight phase shift at the generators do reflect it at the home... | |
power cable length importance 12-30-11: Jea48The power for a typical residential house starts at the utility power transformer, that is after all a split phase isolation transformer. Or as some call balanced power....If your speaking to me, read my post again. Perhaps your con... | |
power cable length importance Mjordanas, there is really no first or last in an AC loop. It's all part of the loop, and needed to complete the continuous AC cycle that cycles back and forth. A break anywhere in it kills the power. Pangea has decent prices on their cords. This ... | |
Power switch substitution for Marantz 2270 HifiEngine has the diagrams for both. They have a different number listed, but it doesn't look like a true part number, unless they list parts by each model individually. One is listed as S003, to other S001. They both appear to be a double pole. ... | |
Bob Carver 180 Mono-blocks perform superbly One odd thing, Bob Carver always made it quite clear he is not a tube amp person. Who would have guessed. | |
power cable length importance That electric travels about 3100 mile per 1000 ms. Just think how many trips it made through the power utility power transformer, the neighbors wiring, and appliances, who knows what else, in about 1000ms. Hmmm... | |
Equipment you just must get if you can Nothing I can think of. OK, at least for this year. |
