| New TV With an Unknown Audio Out Jack? Did your TV come with a manual? Can you access one for your particular model? That hole looks like an optical output but weird that it doesn’t have a cover. If it is a digital output you usually need to select that as the output in the TV audio ... | |
| Your last concert was to see who and when? Lucinda Williams and her band in October. Thoroughly enjoyed the music and stories she told. I admire her talents and strength despite her physical limitations (unable to play guitar) while still recovering from a stroke. | |
| A person I would like to thank/mention in the history of the high end, H. H. Scott, Avery Fisher, David Hafler, Peter Jensen | |
| Kyrocera Home Audio @plinko May I ask where you had your A-710 restored? I am located in the midwest. | |
| My VERY POSITIVE Experience with VTV and Warren Coleman (Attention: Sound Lab Owners!) @bouncehit Congrats on finding a great match. Though I do not own Sound Labs yet I do lust after them after hearing them with 400 watt Classe mono blocks many years ago. What other amps have you owned or auditioned with your sound labs? Apprecia... | |
| Ayre owners and preamp options: seeking advice Hi @aubullience , I'm the OP on this thread. Ayre electronics are a great choice because they sound great, are reliable, and backed by a solid company that offers great customer service. I made a few changes to my system since my original post. Fi... | |
| Looking for high power warming sounding tube amps @ghdprentice interesting description. What preamp are you using with the ARC 160 monos? | |
| Anyone compare Zesto with Backert preamps? Both the Backert Labs and Zesto preamps are expected to be an improvement over my Ayre K-1xe which is itself an excellent preamp. I do plan to audition both preamps though it looks like I may need to travel a bit to do it since no dealers nearby. | |
| Anyone compare Zesto with Backert preamps? Good to know you had a very positive experience with the Zesto. It is high on my list. Sounds like you have not auditioned the toolshed pre before ordering it. | |
| Anyone compare Zesto with Backert preamps? @oddiofyl I remember checking into toolshedamps about a year ago and discovered they are a local company! | |
| Integrated Amp Shopping Decisions Generally speaking, I don't think it's a bad thing to have "too much power" unless you overdrive your speakers or the sound quality is compromised. It seems unlikely that you would do that in a smallish room. In addition, the extra power could be ... | |
| Paul McGowan gets asked about rotary subs. I have read many posts in which @bdp24 praises the ET LFT8b's and having owned (and still own but rarely use) Magnepans, I finally decided to look up an ET dealer close to where I live. I called to ask if I could visit and listen to a pair but wa... | |
| Finally...Pictures! Left a comment. Nice looking room! | |
| More Bass You probably already did this but make sure the speakers are not wired out of phase. After that it's likely your room / speaker positioning. | |
| Is Magnepan still in business ? Don't forget they had a really bad snow storm this week. There could have been a power outage or the business could have been unexpectedly closed for a day or two. Try contacting them again during their business hours (central time). |
