| CD player output volume? RCA. I checked specs on both, but neither show Output voltage. | |
| Amplifier hum - normal? I have found that higher power amps tend to have a little hum to them. Some more then others. If you can only here it from 1-2 feet in a silent room, that it pretty normal. | |
| Emotiva MPS-2 amp and ongoing saga . . . I have heard that Axioms are on the bright sound. Combine that with certain Solid state amps, and it is a recipe for an overly harsh sound. With those speakers I would consider some Tube amps to soften down the system. Some Solid state amps have a... | |
| Integrated Help Unison Unico are very nice hybrid amps. I use it for mostly Jazz, but occasional rock. I got tired of the ear fatigue with my Rotel seperates, and so decided on a Tube hybrid. You can usually find an 80W version here for under a grand. Do a search... | |
| Jolida Hybrid humming noise through speakers? Well I changed Power cables, Interconnects, Tubes, and outlets, and it still is there. If anyone knows what this is, or has any advice before I send it out for service It would be appreciated. Thanks | |
| Preamp/pro volume control bypassed? Yes. I made an error and connected the wrong output. You can disregard this post. Sorry!! | |
| Mixing amps pre amps? I also wondered about changing a power amp or preamp of another brand in a system, which component has more influence on the sound of the system. For example, if he changed to the classe ca2200 Power amp, and keeps the conrad johnson pv14L preamp,... | |
| Rotel RB-1080/Totem Model 1 Signatures? If you have them High passed with a Sub, then it should be fine. Contrary to popular believe, I think high powered amps 200W+, will push small drivers to hard. I don't like using over 100 W amps with monitors, but that is just me. As long as you d... | |
| Xindak FP-Gold How can I tell if it is the right Polarity? Would it not fit into a U.S wall socket if the plug is backwards. | |
| Changed preamps. Seems like less power now? Alright. So for Anthems, -20 & -10 is normal. I figured that if +8 was the Max, and the Min is -80, then -20 would be extremely loud, but I guess this is just how they are. | |
| Changed preamps. Seems like less power now? Yeah. I like that feature. I did not know it was adjustable. Still going through the manual. The Volume range on this shows -80dB to +8.0 Odd. -30 is quite low, and I have to bring it up to -15 for decent volumn, and that's with a 130W power amp. ... | |
| Changed preamps. Seems like less power now? The previous preamp was very sensitive, but also would only be at say 10:00 O'clock position at a given loudness, while the other one has to go to 2:00. I am thinking that maybe I should match my components, and use an Anthem power amp. Wheather o... | |
| Best Value Speaker Model for the Buck? Spica TC-50! Current models I think the Maggie MMGs are a good Bang for the buck. | |
| Are amp or preamp as important as source in setup? I think it makes the biggest difference. I have noticed improvements in my system changes power amps, that affected the sound even more then changing speakers. I | |
| Rotel RA 1062 integrated vs RB 1050 & RC 1070 seps I have owned both, and I think the seperates are better for flexibility, and more power down the road, but the integrated sounded just as good , if not better then the seperates. I found no sonic advantage to the seperates! |
