| The next best Tweak ??? Hi OzzyIt turns out I did misread the capacitor ends. (I feel like a dumbarse for getting it wrong.) When I was done listening to music with the battery tweak in place I removed the whole tweak and hooked them up to the negative terminals on a sma... | |
| KEF Kube 200 Hi CbcarbajShoot KEF an e-mail from the KEF US website. http://www.kef.com/us/ContactWhen I have contacted them inquiring about older KEF speakers they have been responsive.They also have the manual and other docs about the 105/3 speakers if you d... | |
| The next best Tweak ??? Thanks Ozzy and Elizabeth for sharing. I went to Radioshack today because it is right near my office. They did have 1000uf 50V caps for $2.79 but I decided to just opt for the 35V 1000uf caps along with the 6V alkaline lantern batteries. I couldn'... | |
| The next best Tweak ??? This is really going to show my naïveté so I hope I'm shown mercy from the membership here but the 1000uf capacitors I found at various e-tailers and retailers have varying voltages. I've seen 1000µF 6.3V caps all the way to 1000uF 50V caps. Does ... | |
| The next best Tweak ??? This tweak definitely reminded me of Elizabeth's tweak with the pigtail wire and ferrite core. I've had good results with that tweak. I might give this one a shot as well as it requires no soldering. Any specific brand of wire or capacitor to use?... | |
| What's better than a Jolida 100cdp & under 1k? One audiophile I know can't stop raving about the Sony SCD-XA5400ES. On a popular auction site they can be found new for a little over $900 plus shipping. Shipping was also from the US. | |
| How to isolate a refrigerator? Hi UnfairlaneI'm confused. If you were to use an Isolation Transformer on a refrigerator wouldn't you just be purifying the power used by it? Wouldn't the fridge still be on the same power grid it is plugged into? I thought power re generators wer... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore I'm kind of agreeing with CWazz. I guess the Lores aren't all they are cracked up to be. Seems like the buyers that got the Lores hype them up and then unload them. The hype they created with their posts allows them to sell the Lores at or close t... | |
| Biwire jumpers as speaker cables? Hi SuensiuI get it now and can picture how you will be placing the monoblocks along with your speakers. I just can't imagine things sometimes. Whenever I read monoblocks the first thought in my head is Threshold SA/1. I'm so used to seeing big mon... | |
| Volex 17604 power cords I just wanted to post an update regarding the Volex 17604 power cords. A word of caution with the newer Volex 14/3 or Volex 17604 power cords. I purchased a pair of Volex 17604 cords from Newark a couple of months ago and just noticed recently tha... | |
| Can all headphones handle HIGH Volume levels? Good stuff Swampwalker.Good for Dr. Dre. I've always liked his production techniques and his collaborations with various musicians. He never came off as a tool to me.I swear though all I see around me are Beats headphones or ear buds. Pretty much ... | |
| Do powercords make a difference in sound? A word of caution with the newer Volex 14/3 or Volex 17604 power cords. I purchased a pair of Volex 17604s a couple of months ago and just noticed recently that the ones I had purchased look a lot like the stock power cords that came with various ... | |
| Hafler DH 500 update? Elizabeth makes some very valid points. Just for a tech to look over an amp by me is now $60 to $75 depending on the equipment. Then after all their work they could be into you for hundreds and if you were to sell the DH500 you would lose out. Mus... | |
| Biwire jumpers as speaker cables? I guess this would be possible but I've only seen short jumpers. At most 12". If somehow you could get your amp that close to a speaker wouldn't you then have vibration issues with the speaker being so close to the amp when music is playing? | |
| Adromada III or sumo nine Hi Brian_enoGlad you are enjoying the Sumo amp you acquired. What is Revision C on the Nine Plus you have? Does that mean you have a 3rd generation Sumo Nine Plus? I don't think I've ever read anywhere about different revisions for the Sumo amps.M... |
