| Crossover-less Speakers Eldartford, you should use one of your RTAs to help in the set-up. The 901s, due to their reflecting and non-parallel driver baffles, tend to have less concurrent nodes and thus averaging of microphone placement tends to be less critical.The high-... | |
| Crossover-less Speakers There are also multiple driver speakers that are still crossoverless. The Bose 901 comes to mind! But heaven forbid that anyone mention that as an option.Even the 'breakup' phenomenon that Eldartford mentioned is minimized by the use of multiple '... | |
| Stereophile - MF Supercharger article-add 550W/ch. Athipaul, like any amp that is added in series, the ultimate output is a function of the output of the 'last' amplifier in the series. So, as long as the SET amp has enough voltage to drive the following amp, low powered SETs can be used. Even 1/1... | |
| Dedicated Stand for a Turntable ? Opinions. Suspended from the ceiling has worked for me, the turntable , that is.Bob P. | |
| Tonearms without anti-skate, damage to records? Ah yes the Garrard Zero 100, I had forgoten. Thanks.Bob p. | |
| Tonearms without anti-skate, damage to records? Lewm, I didn't know that the RS-Ai articulated at the head. Similar to an old Garrard arm back in the '60s or was that another company. Still, in this case, I guess AS would really be difficult and unnecessary. Salut, Bob P. | |
| Tonearms without anti-skate, damage to records? unless your arm is a tangential design, all pivoting arms generate 'skating force' regardless of the angle on the arm tube. it is the angle deviation of the stylus from perfect tangent that causes the force. that is why AS is so difficult to set a... | |
| Headphone Recommendations Not sure about the Beyer DT 770 being 32 ohms. Mine show 250 ohms. Maybe there is another version? | |
| Power Cords on a $1000 budget what would you do? In fact people 'hear' the difference between the same cord, somtimes! Yet, these same folks can't tell if the channels on a two channel system have been reversed. Believe me, I have witnessed this at a serious audio shop, trying to demonstate the ... | |
| Uneven speaker wire runs Carl, do the math. Even at the slow 160000km/hour speed of lightening, one wouldn't detect the difference in arrival (or delay) between 1000ft and 10 ft cable. Don't you just love mixing units of measure?!! | |
| background vocalist moves from left to right I agree with Clbeanz. You are talking about 2 different systems in two different rooms, correct? The fact that switching speaker leads doesn't make a difference supports this theory, about the room that is. Try reversing speakers in the original r... | |
| Phono stage with gain control? Eldartford, in the 'old days' we called them pre-preamps.Salut, Bob P. | |
| Bose 901...really Eldartford, I will not take that bet, because I feel that the Bose will do fine in the environment that you are describing. If you run full bass to the rear speakers (Bose, I presume) you will be surprised at the amount that these can render.I sti... | |
| Bose 901...really If you get the Bose 901s, get the version used for outdoor concerts, which should mitigate against any humidity problems. They should work fine in those conditions and the equilizer does give you some control over the brightness caused by the glas... | |
| Is my amp "High Current"? That the discussion was about about amp efficiencies, no you hadn't made that clear.Tube amplifiers are always less efficient in producing power, it is inherent to their nature and independent of the speaker load or type (ESL or dynamic). I.e., fo... |
