| Looking for New Speakers - Suggestions Forget the Maggies, you'll be behind the speakers changing fuses more than in front of them listining. I love the Maggies and own them, but they are not for your needs of very loud volume. | |
| Treble Grain? How to Eliminate? Have you tried it with another input? Some say the USB is inferior to RCA in a lot of DACs | |
| Subs with Maggies??????? I use a Velodyne DD-15 (15 inch driver) with my MG20.1 It only plays 15 to 55 HZ with a very steep rolloff (48 db) you can put it almost anywhere at those low freqs. I like it and it gives the punch that is lacking on the Maggies. | |
| one large cap, or a few added up? Thanks for all the responses. I think I will be going with 5 Clarity SA 24uf caps in parallel for a combined total of 120uf. I will hold off on a bypass cap because there seeme to be two camps on this. I will try it without bypass for a while, the... | |
| one large cap, or a few added up? Is there any way to break-in new caps without having to have them installed in my speakers. It seems that they will need 100 to 500 hours before they are "right". That's a lot of time! Could I just wire them up in parallel and plug them in the AC ... | |
| one large cap, or a few added up? thanks guys. It seems that it is hard to find a 120uf cap so I will have to use a combination. Is it better to use 5 24uf, or to stagger the values like 50,33,25 and 12 which total 120uf as well?John | |
| Disconnect the woofer Yes, it seems that I am passivly bi-amping the Mid/high by sending a full range signal through the maggie crossover. I did this because I did not want to mess with the best part of the speaker. I couldn't do a better job at voicing the speaker tha... | |
| Disconnect the woofer Sorry to get back so late. The speakers are Mag 20.1 and I disconnected the woofer by not hooking the wire from the crossover to the woofer inputs on the panels. I am using open baffle subs for 110 Hz and lower and it sounds great. I split the sig... | |
| New Fuse Thread . . . Can anyone comment on the Acme fuses ($12 each) vs. the Hi-Fi ones that are $40 each?Thanks | |
| American made Subwoofer Legacy Audio - 2 or 3 different models | |
| Opinions on Wyred 4 Sound ICE amps Thanks. Did either of you consider the D-Sonic Magnum amps when deciding? They are less money, but don't have the input buffer switch. | |
| Recommend a forward speaker Dennis,There has been a lot of good advice in the above posts, but here is another one. Check out Legacy Focus HD speakers. They have a very lively presence and are a full range speaker. | |
| Is my amp "High Current"? Wow, That was an excellent response. I finally saw the light bulb above my head go on. I only hope I can generate the watts to keep it lit :-)Thank you. You really did explain that well. | |
| Time for new tubes.. which ones? So Sorry, they are 12AT7 the preamp manual says I can also use 12AX7 or 12AU7 as well. All I know is that the original tubes came from China. Thanks for any help. | |
| Sound Quality or Convenience? I sold my ARC LS3 because it had no remote control. However I replaced it with TAD 150 Sig. preamp and it also sounds great, and I don't have to cross the room to adjust the volume any more. I did it for convenience though. |
