| Amp to compliment Sonic Frontiers pre?? Actually the tube that was in there was an Amperex 6DJ8 A frame...not my cup of tea LOL!!03-28-10: SidewaysThough the pin-out may be the same for a 6DJ8 and a 12AT7 the two tubes are not interchangeable.......12AT76DJ8Are you sure the tube was a 6... | |
| Amp to compliment Sonic Frontiers pre?? Sideways,Several years ago I had the Sonic Frontiers SFL-1 in my system. The preamp mates well with an ARC tube amp.What make and year is the 12AT7 tube in the preamp?From the factory the preamp came with 2 tubes. One was a 12AT7A (Ei) and the oth... | |
| Upgrading wall outlets I just added two 20 amp circuits for my power amps using 10gauge with ground wire. I used Leviton 20A Heavy Duty Outlets.03-22-10: CoxhausCoxhaus,Is the supporting back strap of the Leviton receptacle made of steel? (Magnetic ferrous material). | |
| Upgrading wall outlets Coxhaus,If a 20 amp receptacle is used, (NEMA 5-20R), then a 20 amp breaker must be used. The minimum size copper wire would be #12 awg. If #10 awg copper wire is used the breaker still has to be a 20 amp.If a 15 amp duplex receptacle is used, (NE... | |
| 60 Hz Noise Reduction I reconnected the house cable with none of the devices connected, and then reconnected seperately to determine which device was the source. Unfortunately when any single device is connected the noise returns.When you get the Jensen iso transformer... | |
| 60 Hz Noise Reduction I'm assuming that if I connect the chassis to AC ground instead of earth ground it would cause the same EMI/RFI noise problem. or worse correct?03-15-10: Aweaver555 Equipment safety ground, ("U" shaped hole ground contact on the AC wall receptacle... | |
| Shunyata Hydra requires a 20 amp.... Good chance the Shunyata Hydra is UL listed. If the receptacle/s in the Hydra are 20 amp then the IEC must be 20 amp.Odd thing though, you can buy power cords with a 20 amp IEC connector and a 15 amp male plug on the other end. The power cord coul... | |
| Power Cable Question... would it be ok to use lube like WD40 on the prongs?I wouldn't!I suggest you pull each piece of equipment out where you can get a good visual look as to exactly what is going on when you try to insert the IEC connector into the IEC plug on the equi... | |
| 60 Hz Noise Reduction no cable box just TiVo.Aweaver555Where does the TiVo receive its signal from?I think I nailed it by attaching earth ground to Denon Receivers chassis ground.Aweaver555 Not a good idea. If the Denon has a two wire polarized plug that means the equi... | |
| 60 Hz Noise Reduction Just guessing you have a CATV box connected to the system. Disconnect the coax cable from the CATV and check for ground loop hum. If hum is gone buy an isolation transformer for the CATV coax cable.http://www.jensen-transformers.com/an/generic%20s... | |
| To big to fail? What road are we headed down? Byegolly, Buy one of these EZ-CD Opener, works great. (Use the tool on the bottom edge of the wrapper instead of the top so you can remove the entire security seal.)As for removing the security seal,... pull the bottom hinge of the cover of the Je... | |
| Help with power The IEC connector on the unit can be used for 120V as well as 220V. I would contact the seller that sold you the piece of equipment to verify exactly the voltage. My guess, if it says 220V on the back it is 220V. Contact the seller.As for using a ... | |
| Polarity mystery: Can you help me solve it? Kirkus,That is the way I read the OP at first as well. But through later responses from Bryoncunningham I believe he just reversed the speaker cable leads at each of the box speaker terminals. Anyway, a 180d change can produce a relative suckout i... | |
