| Beware of NAD M3 Fire Hazard Al, that amp has a lot crap in it! How long did it take for you to find the 3 fuses? pwb said: I took it to the NAD authorized repair facility and they said a faulty power supply caused the round cylinder ( not sure of part name) to explode round ... | |
| Beware of NAD M3 Fire Hazard @ pwb Odd the AC line safety fuse did not blow. The fuse should have blown protecting the unit from becoming a fire hazard. Is the AC Line fuse the original OEM fuse that came with the amp? If it is the original OEM fuse I suggest you contact NAD ... | |
| Low hum from amp greh OP131 posts 03-13-2020 5:42am My amp is a Manley Stingray.When I first power it up, the hum isn’t audible until I’m about 30 minutes into listening. When I first power it up, the hum isn’t audible until I’m about 30 minutes into listening... | |
| Lets talk dedicated lines @ danvignau Here is an older white paper for a circuit breaker. The trip curve/requirements for current manufactured Thermal-Magnetic (T-M) breaker are still the same. Note you can continuously load a T-M breaker to 100% of its’ handle rating and ... | |
| Lets talk dedicated lines kymanor118 posts 03-05-2020 9:23pm We all know the benefits of dedicated lines, so what is this all about? Best practices....Hopefully to better understand the type of branch circuit wiring used and the best method used for installing it... | |
| Voltage question @winoguy17 Just to be clear, you need to select a step down transformer (SDT) that best matches your wall AC mains voltage. Again you need to check your AC mains voltage at the wall outlet. If your mains voltage average is 120Vac or less then a... | |
| Silly question, but I’ll ask it anyway. @last_lemming Wouldn’t work for interconnects. There is only one conductor covered by a very high voltage rated insulation. You need two conductors for an interconnect. A supply and a return.Next problem the conductor is usually made of compressed... | |
| Lets talk dedicated lines Edit: Like MC, it contains an additional grounding conductor, although with this type of cable it is permissible to use the metal jacket as the safety grounding conductor, as required with isolated ground installations. Not exactly... The armor al... | |
| Lets talk dedicated lines @ volumizerI am not sure exactly what good is the testing that was done in the link you provided.The white paper did not address anything about a voltage that may/will be induced onto the equipment grounding conductor using the 12/3 with ground ca... | |
| Voltage question winoguy17 OP655 posts 03-02-2020 6:28am As stated in the OP ,its rated 100v. If I do pursue this I would probably look into stepping down the voltage. Where is a good place to look for one? Thanks again. I would first check the AC mains voltage... | |
| Voltage question Would a component from Japan that is rated 100 volts be safe to use here on 110-120 volts, Safe? That's not the problem. The problem is you will be feeding the piece of equipment at a much higher voltage than the equipment was designed to be oper... | |

| Equi=Core Hum & Other Issues Lowrider57 said: This leads me to the question; can DC offset be measured by the electrician either at the service panel or the wall receptacles? DC on the AC mains can be measured at either location. In your instance you want to measure it at the... | |
| Equi=Core Hum & Other Issues @lowrider57 Square D QO. Good Choice.No doubt he carries a Square D QO 120 breaker in his service van. Still wouldn’t hurt to tell him the breaker is a QO 120 breaker. Only a Square D QO breaker will work in the panel.No need to have the audio equ... | |
| Equi=Core Hum & Other Issues @lowrider57 For some reason the above post, I originally posted last night, was corrupted after it looked fine after I posted it. The post this morning is the same without the corrupted part as seen at the top sentence of the post last night. I th... |
