| Hiss noise from my SFL2 preamp It has worked before. I have had to stay away from the hobby for family reasons, long story. I have listened sparingly and have heard the noise only in the past few months. Because of the erratic access I haven't paid much attention. I had a local... | |
| Which NAD amp?? I only know the old school amps and always preferred the 2600A over all the same era amps. | |
| Help with Revel F50 and C50 OK, I took the speakers to a local shop and it is the drivers that are bad, not the crossovers. These speakers apparently have a quality issue where the wire leads between the speaker terminal connector and voice coil corrodes and disintegrates. T... | |
| NHT 3.3 , anybody modded this speaker? I am retarded when it comes to this stuff. I usually have a tech who helps me but in this specific case he bowed out. He mentioned the combining of values but it seemed to overwhelm him so I shut up and left it alone. I also have had time to liste... | |
| NHT 3.3 , anybody modded this speaker? was able to find a schematic of the cross-overs and the part selections are very difficult to repeat with off the shelf values. I will most likely leave them alone. | |
| Which Moscode 300 vs 600 Thank you all. I will wait out the storm and buy an amp that is right. I am trying to power up a pair of Dunlavy Cantatas and I think a good tube amp will be the sound I want. Just sold a Belles ( phenomenal!) and have decided to switch back to tu... | |
| Which Moscode 300 vs 600 I guess my experience was 600 reminded me of a solid state sounding amp. I have Dunlavy Cantatas which have the same basic drivers as the 4A. I am thinking the 300 is my best bet from my own experiences but had to ask since my 600 experience was b... | |
| Who R U? I'm Jerry, 51, and have lived in AZ all my life except for four years in Puerto Rico, beautiful island and wonderful people. I am a buyer for R&D missile development for a huge company and have been there for 21 years. My family (married to my... | |
| How to pack a VPI HW-19 TT? I also need to know this. Thanks for starting the thread! | |
| Damned brands or not good electronics? I have owned several Moscode 300's in my life. They were nice but not as powerful as a pure SS amp and to get the real warmth need to be warmed up for extended periods of time. Thus in and out of the house over the past 15 years.Just recently I go... | |
| Bel Canto EVO4 gen II vs. Sonic Frontiers Power 2 Hmmm, possibly. I had put in the system a pair of Energy 1.8 Veritas and the lateral imaging was stunningly good. But, the depth was shallow. I didn't know if it was the 1.8s or my system. Your point may be well taken, I have never had good depth ... | |
| Power cord for Bel Canto Evo 4? I use the JPS Power AC and the price is close. I used to use the JPS Kaptivator ($1500.00) and wow but I felt guilty and sold it. The AC is quite good and neutral. | |
| What other obsessions do you have? My family and my religion are much more an influence in my life and they dominate my time. This hobby does give me a time alone occasionally to lose myself and relax. When permitted I prefer to listen to music rather than watch TV. When I go on wa... | |
| What item sold you cannot live without?? A pair of Energy 1.8 speakers. I chose the NHT 3.3 for the long haul but the Energys far surpassed anything else I have ever heard in soundstage and layering. A gut wrenching decision. | |
| Audible Illusions Modulus 3A problems I am sure it is the stepped attenuator. I have switched tons of amps into the system just to have funand the preamp, right channel, is consistently the culprit. It is a very loud and destructive sounding pop! The cleaning worked temporarily as men... |
