| Schiit Modi 3 with Google Pixel 3 I did buy the iFi adapter that is the equivalent of the AQ Dragontail (but it has a male USB-A end) and it streams music just fine with the Modi's supplied cord to my Android device. I also ordered an Apple camera adapter to hook to the iFi cord a... | |
| Schiit Modi 3 with Google Pixel 3 Thank you for your feedback. I too just ordered an audioquest USB to micro cable with the Dragontail adapter to go from the USB A to C for my Pixel 3 output. I'm curious as to why yours didn't work..?? I've been using the supplied cable that came ... | |
| Schiit Modi 3 with Google Pixel 3 Thank you for your suggestions. Yes, the supplied cord that came with the Modi 3 would work to connect my Pixel but I need to use it to power the Modi as I have a CD player also connected by the digital coaxial audio cable. Has anybody used any o... | |
| Most annoying song, period. I don't want to miss a thing by Aerosmith ... Or basically any and every Aerosmith song. I'd rather grind my ears off with a belt sander | |
| KEF 104/2 tweeters Thanks ljgerens. Yes I did get the Midwest tweeters. I will certainly let you know how they sound. They should be a direct fit hopefully. Not sure if I will need to do some soldering... I've tried leaving the spikes in and I have yarded on them... | |
| KEF 104/2 tweeters ... additional thought. If I absolutely can't get the bottom panel off has anyone successfully replaced the bottom donut without taking out the woofer assembly? I know it's not ideal but it might be my only option. Thank you in advance! | |
| KEF 104/2 tweeters Upon further inspection it seems the donuts are indeed rotten and fall apart to the touch. Ordered some new ones and ordered and received a new set of tweeters. In the process of disassembling the speakers. For the life of me, I cannot get the bo... | |
| KEF 104/2 tweeters I will check that tomorrow. Good idea! I don't believe the donuts have been replaced but they appear in good shape. They arent crumbly or falling apart when I touch them. In my best estimation it doesn't seem they have been opened up at all. | |
| KEF 104/2 tweeters Hi George. Thank you. Yes, there is sound from the speaker in question, it's just muddled almost as if the speaker has a giant box over it when listening. | |
| KEF 104/2 tweeters Pulled it apart again and all the connections look good, tight and clean. I've read that you can't get into the mids because they aren't framed. Im not really sure how to access them. I've watched several videos of full 104/2 restorations but the... | |
| KEF 104/2 tweeters Thanks ljgerens. I will check the connections tomorrow (the connections for the tweeters looked very clean) and take a close look at the mids to see what kind of shape they're in. | |
| KEF 104/2 tweeters Hi there. I completed the ferrofluid replacement on both KEF 104/2 speakers based on your suggestions. Thank you. Now... My right speaker is playing in a very muddy and muted way. I thought I had noted it prior to the fluid change and had hoped... | |
| KEF 104/2 tweeters Terrific advice from everyone. I plan to change out the ferrofluid this weekend. Just inspected my surrounds and they are, in fact, the rubber type that must have come in the earlier non-biamped model. The center donuts look decent as well. Thank... | |
| KEF 104/2 tweeters Thank you all. I appreciate the feedback. I did check out one video on changing out the ferrofluid but it didn't recommend what type of ferrofluid to use as replacement nor did it state how much to add??? Perhaps it's obvious when I get it apart. | |
| Preamp suggestions Mcreyn just a quick update on your recommendations. I've had the system running with my Snells, Parasound 2100 and the Naka pA-5 amp. Didn't realize how thirsty my speakers were for some clean power. I knew the Mac I was using was underpowered ... |
