Where to buy 12v trigger cable?
Thanks impala. I appreciate your help. I wasn't sure if an audio cable would work, or if I needed something to handle electricity. I guess 12 volts isn't much current.Regards. 
Personal amp evolution
Began with a HT system that eventually evolved into a combined HT/2-ch system. You can see the evolution of amps from a mid-fi multi-channel to high-end multi-channel to fantastic sounding 2 channel. Am using the Berning for fronts, the EAD for th... 
Best of "Dead Can Dance"?
Thanks to all who've responded. Kthomas: I checked out allmusic.com and did find it very helpful. Thanks.Goldorak, Seth & Jwaugh: Thanks for the leads. I'm going to explore them all. If the other cd's approach the sound of Into the Labyrinth, ... 
transaction gone bad Any recourse for me? HELP
Avguygeorge,I like your suggestion about buying local, but how do you do a search for local equipment? Doesn't this also drastically limit your choices of equipment?Thanks. 
Why no threads on OTL amps?
Jayarr,Which horn speakers did you settle on? I own a Berning 270 and am myself interested in horns. Did you try the 270 with the horns before selling it? How did it sound?Thanks. 
Is the SPM/Quatro fil still a good choice
Thorty40,I'm primarily interested in IC's rather than speaker cables at this time. I've got an Electrocompaniet EMC-1 cdp, Berning ZH-270 amp driving Aerial speakers. Would you consider this combo to be of high enough quality where the SPM's would... 
Is the SPM/Quatro fil still a good choice
Sugarbrie,I've been looking at these 2 IC's myself, and was wondering what you consider the differences to be. You don't see 1 meter RCA Quatro Fils come up for sale too often, and wondered how much better it was than the SPM. IYHO, are they worth... 
Why no threads on OTL amps?
Kris,You mentioned the Berning ZH270 running a speaker by Preference Audio. I'd be very interested in learning more about this speaker. I couldn't find anything on Preference Audio thru the Google search engine. Can you provide me with any additio... 
Why no threads on OTL amps?
Chris is right on concerning the incredible Berning ZH-270 OTL amp. I bought one used about a month ago and am astounded at it's sonics and capability. I was a little apprehensive about it's ability to drive my Aerial 7b's. These are not considere... 
Nobody doing thier own experimenting or research?
I think Garfish hit the nail on the head. I've been putting together and "fine-tuning" my system for a little over a year now with the help of several friends. I even managed to attend CES this year. Yet I still have not had the opportunity to lis... 
Why does my Paradigm Servo-15 sub Hum?
Dave,I have the same thing with my Velodyne sub. It's the servo that's making the humming noise. I called Velodyne when I first got mine, and they assured me that all servo-controlled subs make this noise. Mine is not as you describe "real loud", ... 
Aerial 7B vs Silverline Sonata
Zippyy,I totally agree with you that the 7B's are great speakers for home theater. They're very good for 2-ch as well. They may be one of the best speakers for a combined system. It's just that I'm leaning more to 2-ch lately, and want to get the ... 
What is causing the hum?
Well done, Steve. I've been fighting an annoying hum for quite awhile now. No one ever explained the problem or suggested the solution more clearly than you did. Thanks. I'll give it a try. 
How do you improve bass response in a null?
Doug,I've just ordered a REL Storm III. In addition to it I'll have a Velodyne HGS-18 & M&K MX125 with dual 12" drivers. What would be your suggestion for using either of these 2 subs as the 2nd stereo sub in addition to the REL? The Velo ... 
How do you improve bass response in a null?
Dave 1,Very creative solution. Unfortunately my sub's phase is already set for maximum spl. If I reverse phase, it will make the null even worse. If my sub were set out of phase, then your solution would be a good one.Thanks for your advice though...
