How to fuse bypass in Magnepan 1.7i
@zenworm If the black wire and the yellow wire are using same size female connector, and if you want to bypass the fuse and jumper/attenuator altogether, you can use a 3 way adapter to connect both black and yellow wire to the upper negative bin... 
OSRAM 12V 3W
Is anyone familiar with this "bulb?" What is its purpose? I guess as long as it’s lighting up I should just leave it alone? It serves two purpose, lower the power supply rectified 40VDC to 34.2V, and also works as a current limiter (something l...

How to fuse bypass in Magnepan 1.7i
On the Magnepan 1.7i, it does require an irreversible mod. You have to cut the yellow wire going to the fuse block, and then resolder it to the post. The yellow wire is connected to the fuse block via quick disconnect terminal, what you need i... 
Accuphase E600 voltage conversion
@quanghuy147  It seems like some grounding problem between components. Would you provide detail information what components are in your system and how they connected together, maybe we can figure out what is the culprit.  
How important is the cable between the SUT and phono pre?
@jpjones3318  I think Chapter 1.3.2 or page 11 is what you looking for?

Accuphase E600 voltage conversion
When I disconnect all sources from E600, only the speakers are connected to the E600, 3-pong power cord is used, I don't hear any noise even when I turn up the volume to 12 o'clock position. I believe the noise problem is not the E600, please c...

Micro Seiki DD 40 Dual Tonearm installation
@elliottbnewcombjr  I think you've spent a lot of effort to accommodate the 3rd arm on your table since it is not design for that.  
Accuphase E600 voltage conversion
@quanghuy147  If you disconnect ALL sources from the E600, connect ONLY the speakers to the E600 and use a 3-prong power cord to power up the E600, can you hear any noise if you turn up the volume?    
Clearaudio Concept TT subpar sound quality
@agforte IMHO, the best way to connect the turntable to your system is using a phono preamp with built-in volume control and directly connect to your active speakers analog inputs. Something like a used PS Audio GCPH phono preamp or any analog ... 
Micro Seiki DD 40 Dual Tonearm installation
I think it is not the best idea to add a 2nd arm to THAT TT The DD40 designed with optional 2nd armboard adapter. 1. it would need to be mounted on the left side, thus backwards. I did backwards for my 3rd arm, but it is awkward at best. Beyo...
