| Bass leaves after amp warms up? Certainly any help is appreciated but recordings of the sound differences were sent out and I noticed a difference. I still believe it is somehow related to heat. Either in the amp or the speakers or both. The "bad" sound reminds of an amp that is... | |
| Neutral or warm? Which do you prefer? One of the best recordings I have ever heard of a solo saxaphone was done on the middle landing of a ceramic tiled subway stairs entrance. | |
| Nakamichi? Can the amp be turned on with......... If memory serves, the On/Off button is mechanical so if you plug it into a switched outlet that can handle the amperage and as long as you have left the power switch in the on position you should be good to go. | |
| Neutral or warm? Which do you prefer? I really don't like saying that I want my music to sound as though it is live, because like others have mentioned, live isn't always a good thing. In fact, most live shows sound like cr@p.I think it might be better if we were to stay with lifelike... | |
| New cart for under 1K So you found a speaker with a metal dome teweeter that is not harsh. I'll bet you that there are far more speakers with metal domes that are considered "bright", "edgy" or "harsh" than are not.BTW, the tweeter in the Harbeth is one of the few meta... | |
| Neutral or warm? Which do you prefer? "What is wrong with a system being balanced or unbalanced ?If it is unbalanced, that can mean either upward or downward."I agree, the word balanced is less open to interpertation.So BALANCED is added to the list of words to be used insted of neutral. | |
| Neutral or warm? Which do you prefer? I agree. So you vote that we stay with the word "neutral" and do our best to define the word whenever we use it? | |
| Neutral or warm? Which do you prefer? Yes, audio is subjective and certainly no product is 100% transparent as we all know. So we all spend time using words like bright, forward, warm, fast, slow etcetera, etcetera, etcetera. With that said we need a word that means that the product h... | |
| Upgrading from AT95e cart..... I believe that the 95e will take a 120 as well as the 140 needle. Both of which have better diamonds/cantilevers. | |
| Accuphase E-560 Voltage Conversion 100v to 230v A lot of makers find it more economical to purchase a mains transformer that have the various inputs to work in all markets. You just have to find out which unused leads are for 230V. | |
| Neutral or warm? Which do you prefer? "I have nothing against folks that enjoy a tilted up high frequency response, but I do wish they would stop referring to it as 'neutral' sounding. Neutral gear should sound neither rolled off nor lit up, it should just sound relaxed and natural."I... | |
| Neutral or warm? Which do you prefer? To answer your question first, "better" is whatever is best for that individual. There are no absolutes in this hobby. If there was then the near endless debates about amp types, speaker types, cartridge types, cable types etc, would not need to e... | |
| Pairing problem with amp/speakers??? Have you hooked up the 1266's directly to the VSX52? If the speakers fade out at the same volume than it is probably in the speakers, if not than it's probably the XPA. | |
| Digital vs Interconnect Cables - Difference? Good question but you are going to get a ton of responces. Although an awful lot of video cables as well as audio will work as a co-ax digital cable the actual spec for a co-ax digital cable is 110 ohms not the 75 ohm viseo cable spec. It's not as... | |
| Why does feedback go away when I do this????? Sounds more like hum than feedback. If so and if it is beign generated in the preamp (maybe a ground loop) than it would have nothing to do with the phono pre. |
