| Bellari PP 532 passive preamp question. As per the other thread… I suspect that the output impedance of the unit would go very high when it is played low volume…(??) That would make it sensitive to interconnects and also would affect some schemes using a subwoofer. if one plays it... | |
| McCormack DNA HT3 Amp and Bellari 532 Passive Pre-amp ..Good Match ? I suspect that the output impedance of the unit would go very high when it is played low volume…(??) That would make it sensitive to interconnects and also would affect some schemes using a subwoofer. if one plays it at a high volume, or general... | |
| Let me end the Premp/Amplifier sound debate ... I have very little concern for those who want to argue against my experiences and choices. ^Maybe get the moderators to lock the thread^ then? I cannot argue your experiences, as they are yours. The choices are also yours. The reasoning b... | |
| audible illusions vs supratek, vs holoaudio vs backert My brother owns the Audible Illusions. +1 regarding customer service. He sent his in for a service and they talked him into buying a replacement. Then they sold the one he’d sent in to somebody else and he had to wait a looooooong time before the... | |
| Bi-amping Ok - so let us assume I have ordered an Octo DAC8. Do I do the active XO with something like J-river, etc software? or… do I use some analogue active XO? | |
| Quantum Science Audio Thread If she believes this stuff, then give her my number. If not, then she is too smart for me already. 🙄 | |
| MM vs MC Cartridges There is also moving iron, just to add to the OP’s choices. | |
| Schiit Yggdrassil Fuse Value Figured the deniers would come out of the woodwork, such is what this site has devolved into. Thank you koestner. Let us know the improvement please. | |
| Is there a solid fuse-like item that I can use in place of a fuse, to bypass it? This discussion is going round and round with neither of the parties agreeing on anything. This is because both sides are bringing preconceived notions to the table and refusing to see the other side. Sound measurements would help. The “trust y... | |
| Audioquest vs Mogami XLR Audio connector cables How much were the AQ jobs? I am assuming that they are the ones with the battery biasing deal? | |
| Transformer question--need transformer that puts out nominal 240V for European Amplifier No, I reversed the hot and neutral conductor polarity. Yep- and that would be like flipping the phase polarity on the 240v (which is +/- 120v) | |
| Transformer question--need transformer that puts out nominal 240V for European Amplifier @carlsbad I explained previously that if there is a center tap, then the transformer’s opposing legs will be +/- 120. One of the internal wires should be hooked to ground However if the amp is a typical piece of Eu gear then it is likely double ... | |
| Need help picking my first tube amp I don’t think I am going to be of much help. (No experience with JBL nor those Mc units.) But how are you doing the active crossover (Active-XO) for the bi-amping? The new MiniDSP Flex would allow one to do the active-XO as L/R in and L-hi/L-low... | |

| Speaker Sound Can you get OFC paper clips? That is a bit of a paper tiger argument. 😎 |
