Crackling in right channel, what do I do? Help, please.
Who makes a good 150w into 8ohms Class AB amplifier for about $3k? I need to be able to lift the thing. It has to have balanced inputs. Check out the Benchmark ABH2 power amplifier, 100w x2 @ 8Ω, 190w x2 @ 4Ω, should has enough power to drive y... 
Harmon Kardon citation 2 bias question
Measure voltage across the 15 ohm cathode resistor, use Ohm’s law to calculate the current ( I = V / R ). 1V across 15 ohm cathode resistor = 0.067A Plate dissipation = B+ voltage x current Assuming B+ is 470V, 470 x 0.067 = 31.3Watt. On the s...

Question about Cary Audio SLP-05 Preamp
Hi @xcool, I don’t know any one manufacturing such Y cable, it’s quite simple to make one. I attached the schematic for your reference, the function of the diode is to block backfeed voltage from the inputs. Any power diode like the 1N4001 - 1N400... 
Question about Cary Audio SLP-05 Preamp
If it is indeed true that the SLP-05 can be powered off for the Cinema bypass, then my problem becomes what is the best way to turn on my stereo power amp that will be connected to the SLP-05. If the power amp equipped with audio signal sensing...

Best SET power amp below $5,000
curious if there is any technology advantage in newer products, holding their condition constant (ie comparing a 1950s era SET amp to a 2022 design, both in mint condition). +1 The original was $6K(?) in early 2000, Now the Art Audio PX25 MK2 ... 
Best SET power amp below $5,000
I currently have a low power SET amp, paired with 94db loudspeakers. What is the make and model of your SET amp and speakers?  
HiFi audio Fuse on a CD Transport
The fuse is there to protect the power transformer.  $200.  I can afford a new one if it blows. I hope it is that simple. 🤔🏠🔥👨‍👩‍👧‍👦  
Connect Harman Kardon Citation 25 Preamp to bridged Citation 22 amplifiers
An interconnect would go from the left output of the preamp to the left input (marked Mono) for the amplifier I will use for the left speaker. Then another interconnect would go from the right output from the preamp to the left input (marked Mono... 
Voltage divider/attenuator
I have a 10V audio source that I want to bring it to line level 1V. That’s pretty easy: I just need to use a voltage attenuator 10:1 like image below. I used resistor values of 1k ohm (R1) and 100 ohm (R2) and it worked great! @batata004 It’s...
