Would I need other boards as well to "improve" my current? You can use a time delay rela... | |
Jorma no.3 cut a small piece and make jumpers One alternative is solder both high and low internal wires onto one set of speaker blinding posts to eliminate the need of jumpers. | |
What is a cost effective way to level match, for comparing different hifi components? Acknowledging the importance of level matching when comparing source components is a sign of a good listener. +1 @tvad If you don’t understand the importance of level matching when comparing source components, you need a new hobby! | |
Spindle-To-Pivot Distance Install a slidable arm base, slide to 250mm to play a record, slide to 240mm for good looking. https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/hz4AAOSwuhheVlOd/s-l1600.jpg | |
Bi-amping versus Bridging for NAD S200's bobandtorey The bi-amp method you’re using is horizontal passive bi-amping, since you're using two identical power amplifier, you also can try vertical passive bi-amp by using both channels of each power amp to drive each of the speaker highs/Mid ... | |
Pioneer SX-850 Transformer Secondary Output Voltage Although 20.6V on each green wire and 48.4V on each orange wire seems a little high according to the schematics of service manual, I think it's OK since those windings connect to voltage regulator circuitry after rectifier. The 33.1V on each red... | |

Cary V-12 blowing capacitors The original power transformer that was in it had a direct short and could have caused the UCC’s to stress. I thought the opposite, shorted filtering caps stress upstream power supply components ( rectifier diodes, power transformer and fuse ) ... | |
Cary V-12 blowing capacitors I asked him why he thinks the black UCC would explode and he said the only way for them to explode is if they were wired with reverse polarity. Or if they were wired with shorted rectifier diodes. | |
