| Has anyone compared Emotiva amps to high end amps? I want to make this point clear, I am on the side of those saying the Emotiva XPA-2 is a very good amp. A great amp when you factor the price verse performance aspect. And as a side note there customer service is by far the best I have encountered... | |
| Has anyone compared Emotiva amps to high end amps? I have Hale Revelations Three's 86db 4ohm. These speaker love raw clean power(current). I played one of the XPA-2 for a month to get a Handel on the sound. It was good, but it made me miss my Belles 350A Reference that I sold (and regret). The Bel... | |
| Has anyone compared Emotiva amps to high end amps? The XPA-2 amp has one major achilles heel if your thinking of using them as Bridge-mono- blocs. Emotiva Audio will tell you upfront it does not like to see a 2 ohm load. If you own low impedance speakers (4ohm -86db) or lower, the amp will go into... | |
| Mapleshade boards under speakers I use two maple cutting boards sandwiched between two sets of grade 25 tungsten carbide ball-bearings under my 96lb. speakers. Removing the Brass 1/4 x 20 threaded cones that came with the speakers, and putting the 1/2 inch grade 25 tungsten carbi... | |
| Copper Sleeve over IEC Ozzy just put a small strip of Teflon tape over the power cord female IEC. Another way to do it is to just plug your power cord in your unit and take the teflon tape strip and lay it between the power cord IEC and the units, There is always a gap ... | |
| Copper Sleeve over IEC Tbg, I did not stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night, but my guess is yes it has something to do with reducing vibrations of the copper coupler. With that said, I have been using the Teflon plumbers tape like this for years, And it has always a... | |
| Copper Sleeve over IEC This is a great tweak that works. I have tweaked the tweak. Before I plug the IEC end of the powercord with the copper coupler on it. I cut a 1 inch strip of Teflon plumbers tape and put it on top of my IEC plug where the three prongs slide in the... | |
| Oyaide Tunami GPX-R: Two for One Sns: You have rightly focused on your most important component-your room. Your listening room is the only true universal component in your system. It will be heard in an all digital or all Analog setup, tube or solid-state. If you take the time to... | |
| Oyaide Tunami GPX-R: Two for One Your right Sherod. No more whining from me, because it could always be worse. | |
| Oyaide Tunami GPX-R: Two for One Ya' running those two 20amp lines was cheap, but a pain in the neck, 10 awg by myself through the attic. But well worth it I must admit. | |
| Oyaide Tunami GPX-R: Two for One That's what I'm talking about Sherod. My Tek Line Micro Ref. that I'm using on my OPPO 980H has the Wattgate 330i AC plug with the 350i IEC. And it sound noticeably better going into the Tunami outlet box then straight into the dedicated Porter Po... | |
| Oyaide Tunami GPX-R: Two for One Hi, Sns. I know a labor of love when I see one. And your listening room fits this description to a tee. As someone who has a dedicated listening room as well, with sound reinforcements, dedicated lines for analog as well as digital. I know the tim... | |
| "Budget" preamp choices. I would go to the Power Modules web sight and look at the Belles Soloist 3 preamp. It will meet and exceeded your expectations. It's in your price range and comes with a remote. I own one and it's one of the best buys out there price to performanc... | |
| What do you think of the DIY Cat 5 speaker cables I to would not put any covering over the cat 5 braids. It is important to note that this type of cable design is VERY susceptible to vibration, both air and surface vibrations. And to much vibration anywhere in your setup robs you of the ability t... | |
| What do you think of the DIY Cat 5 speaker cables I have made 4 sets of DIY Cat 6 speaker cables using the Chris VH's recipe. The lengths are 4ft. 7ft. (2)8ft. I use only one color for each set of speaker cables. The 4ft pair uses only the orange pair. The 7ft. pair uses only the brown pair. One ... |
