| No sound from speakers Turntable has to be plugged into the phono input on the back, then use ‘phono’ in listen mode. If the turntable is plugged in anywhere else in back, that would also produce a faint sound at best. | |
| No sound from speakers Is it a Cyrus 1? I haven’t a clue as to your knowledge level, but go with simple first. Check, then double check, that the inputs are where you think they are.Then make sure the ‘Listen’ selector knob is choosing the input you want. It sounds like... | |
| My exp. with Focal Sopra No.2 , Harbeth 40.2, Passlabs XA30.5 and Hypex NC400 This post and it’s replies are wide ranging, so I will just stick to this- if you use digital as a source (streaming, cd, etc.), a class A amplifier is the way to go. Hence the OP’s conclusion using the Pass Class A amp...Digital is sliced and dic... | |
| So, I really like my Tukans and I really miss the next lower octaves.. A LOT of newer stand mounted speakers would fit the parameters you are looking for. The Tukans are an especially small speaker, and physics is physics...A Stereophile review of your speaker notes it’s rising midrange response. Since that appeals t... | |
| Bordering on criminal, I know… I see the ML’s only have one set of binding posts. I know multi-channel receivers sometimes provide a menu option to assign spare channels so they may be used in a bi or tri-wire setup. I guess I don’t see how you would do this, unless of course b... | |
| Bordering on criminal, I know… I don’t think you’re really ‘bridging’ the amp channels as understood in a typical 2 channel amp where the option is provided by a switch. This is just reassigning unused amp channels in a 9 channel amplifier. However, and it’s a big however, the ... | |
| Best Loudspeakers for Rich Timbre? Legacy Audio. They tend to make more recordings listenable, don’t break the bank, and surely fall into the rich sound camp of speakers. | |
| Y No YG ? About 8 or 9 years ago I heard a large YG model, I don’t recall which exactly, at CES. I had them play a track from Neil Young’s ‘Live At Massey Hall’. I swear I could see the stage in front of me. A truly memorable demo. They were, then and now, ... | |
| Polycarbonate Disc Bliss: The CD is alive and well George Michael “Faith” standard issue cd sounds exceptional. | |
| Looking for speaker recommendations that I can purchase on Amazon.com No one participating in this thread will ever get their time back. Yes, I do see the irony in my wasting a moment on it too. But it had to be said. | |
| Another question about bi wiring Thank you. | |
| Another question about bi wiring Not he back of your amp. WTF | |
| Is it the beer or do speakers/electronics really need some extended warm-up period? Thanks Doug, I can't believe I wasted time and money via my electric bill, because I delusionally imagined my Bryston amp sounded better after being on for 24 hours or so. Over and over I imagined this. If only this thread had appeared years ago. ... | |
| PranaFidelity speakers, what say you? Always a top sounding room. His systems have a certain 'soul' that eludes most others. And they have that certain something that just makes them great fun to listen to. I was disappointed that he didn't have a room this past year at RMAF. Just a '... | |
| Luxman L-590AX My only caveat to you is that the Harbeths are pretty inefficient. In a small room I guess it wouldn't matter, but it is something to consider.I am driving Legacy Focus SE with AMT tweeters, but they are big, efficient speakers. |
