| Speaker Identification Help? Ultimately, I’m most interested in identifying the unmarked pair The piezo tweeter and L-Pad faceplate are available at DIY site parts-express.com is a hint. | |
| Convert Accuphase C27 from 100V to 120V Based on the image, I believe the white and blue wire that soldered to the connector block is incoming AC voltage. 1. Power up the C27 with 100VAC, use a DMM to to measure the voltage across the white and blue wire you should get 100VAC. 2. Meas... | |
| B&W Center Channel HTM81 D4 A better center channel speaker definitely help, or you can turn the center channel level up a few dB on your existing CC speaker makes dialogue louder than the music and sound effects. | |

| Audiophile Fuses - Are We Certain They Provide Protection? three_easy_payments OP 2,000 posts 09-09-2021 4:27pm @turnbowm Andy Wiederspahn at SR wrote to me indicating that all SR fuses are UL certified. | |
| Thoughts on having 2 different sized subs in same room IME, using two different subwoofer as stereo pair is not ideal and very hard to integrate well. My suggestion is connect the SVS SB12-NSD to ZPre3 preamp and position the sub on the front. Use the high level (speaker level) connect the Audio Sou... | |
| Subwoofer cable question Also a lot of subs that have L and R channel inputs, if you look at the circuit diagram they are summed inside. L and R are there for convience. NO! If your main speakers are small monitors and started roll off at higher than 80Hz , if you conn... | |
| Joseph vs Legacy in 7K range? FYI, Joseph Audio make a 7k floorstander "Profile" and Legacy audio make a 6k+ standmount speaker "Calibre" https://www.josephaudio.net/profile https://destinationhifi.com/products/legacy-calibre | |
| Subwoofer cable question I want to run a Rel sub from my integrated amps "pre out" and the sub has only 1 "low level" and the "lfe" input. Do I need an adapter from stereo to mono or do the low level and lfe inputs on the sub act together as left and right input? My su... | |
| Best Tube PreAmp - McIntosh vs. Audio Research vs. VAC vs. Atma-Sphere I never thought about burning through tubes & how expensive it could be while video watching. The Luxman m900u has a very useful feature: two set of input. Connect one input to HT and the other to stereo preamp, no need to turn on the prea... | |
| choosing the best The sensitivity of Paradigm monitor 7 v3 is 90dB (anechoic) and the Kef K160 is 89dB (anechoic), I don’t know where MC get the 94dB sensitivity from??? BTW, 20watt output on a 89dB sensitivity speaker will produce 92.3dB SPL from 10 feet away. P... | |
| Unknown High Frequency Distortion, Recording or Speaker? Which would you think would cause this issue? A problem of solder or a defect in the tweeter itself? It's hard to say, since the electronics and transformer(s) all house in the left speaker, there’s possibility of electromagnetic interference. ... | |
| How to Improve Gain for RCA on Preamp. Can it be done? Is there a way to improve gain on a preamp using RCA? Yes, a transformer. https://www.jensen-transformers.com/ | |
| Changing 100uf cap With those values, worthwhile improvements will be out of this world price and massive size would require outboard crossover. Perhaps upgrade the speaker to active is a better move? | |
| Changing 100uf cap Axion (Solen) is probably good enough. The Audyn Q6 caps in OP’s speakers crossover are MKP film capacitors, I don’t see the need of changing them, IMO. |
