| Need a heavy duty receptacle I know I'm not the only audiofool around who uses some kind of device to suspend cables off the floor, and I'm surprised no one has mentioned them. My cable lifters are plastic-conduit couplers. The smaller ones are c. 2-9/16" high by 2-5/8" diame... | |
| KINDEL AUDIO HOOKUP Kindel PLS-As, huh? I sold Kindel stuff as Two Jeffreys Audio in the early to mid-'80s and met Bill Kindel at, I believe, the WCES in Lost Wages. I've had 3 pairs of PLS-As over the years. Here's a pic of one with the grill off.http://i89.photobuc... | |
| Are marantz ma500 monoblocks better than an adcom? "I'll be blunt, the MA500's were dogs, plain and simple." Well, no wishywashyness from Tmsorock this morning!I disagree. I've had dozens over the years and feel that they're good- but not great-sounding amps.B_limo, in your original post, you jump... | |
| Need at least 900wpc in 4ohm I love Triode's AND Jim_swantko's comments. I've tried both, having had several different SET amps in my systems the last maybe-10 years, driving hi-efficiency (more than 100dB) linearrays. As the rest of my system increased in resolution, so I wa... | |
| Need at least 900wpc in 4ohm McCormack DNA-750 monoamps--650 into 8 and a kW into 4. $5K per pair (delivered to you, IIRC) from Spearit Sounds. EXCELLENT sound.. | |

| 4 ohm or 8 ohm tap on old tube amps? One advantage of using the 4- versus 8-Ohm tap is that the amp will have twice the damping factor so the bass probably will sound better damped...which may be better or may be worse.. | |
| Conversion of mV to dB Jmcgrogan2, it's been many years since I played with LPs, fonocartridges, and fonostages, but I do recall something about 5cm/s (centimeters per second) and 3.54cm/s...being that they're the same!5cm/s is the standard horizontal groove modulation ... | |

| sell the system or piece it out I agree with Bigby--most assembled systems, be they DSLR-camera or hi-end-audio systems, will bring more money if sold separately. The V-steen 5s are rare enough that they should sell quickly, even this summer.What's the finish on the 5s and where... | |
| Solid State Amplification for Devore Nines? I know nothing about Devore Nines--can't find them in Devore's site--but if their sensitivity is in the range of 85 - 90dB, I strongly recommend a pair of McCormack DNA-750s...$4995 new, delivered to you from Spearit Sound.http://www.spearitsound.... | |
