What connectors for DIY cable? Thanks guys, appreciate all the input within such a short time. Guess the bare wire might just be the way to go, just have to look at my binding posts on the amps since I'm not sure if I can go bare wire there, but I'll find out when I get home to... | |
what Ipod dock would you buy? Thanks for all the responses.What I'm looking for is simply a portable solution that holds the Ipod and has some speakers.I don't mind if I need a powercord but would prefer something with batteries that recharge once plugged in with the powercord... | |
Great systems in butt-ugly rooms I would agree that a system should match the room it is in, after all, why spend all the money and not get the most out of it.However, sometimes we move to a new house or for some reason or another move our system to a room that is less then ideal... | |
Bi-amping B&W 703's I'm not sure if the Electrocompaniet gear is what makes it sound bright. When you search for threads regarding the B&W 703's here it sounds like I'm not the only one having that problem, so for now the Electrocompaniet's will stay.Not sure how... | |
Bi-amping B&W 703's Wow, that sounds like you've put a lot of time in your system. Have to admit that I'm not quite that dedicated, haha.It doesn't sound much different with the NAD tuner, but then again, I'd really have to do some listening since I hardly ever use t... | |
Bi-amping B&W 703's Almost 2am and to my embarassment I shall admit that it's a Sony 5 DC changer. Far less then stellar but the Denon player I have has taken a life of it's own and convinced it's components to only read DVD's, CD's are ignored, haha.Considering that... | |
Bi-amping B&W 703's Well, the floor is carpet, the walls are the usual drywall stuff.Furniture is wood and seating is mainly fabric covered.The wall behind the speakers is actually windows all the way to the ceiling.The main problem I've always had is that the speake... | |
Bi-amping B&W 703's Thanks Rodman99999I'll read through all the links and will go from there. Still would like to find out what change there is when splitting the signal in two and what effect it could have on the preamp.Guess since a lot of people do it it really ca... | |
Bi-amping B&W 703's Just spoke to a guy at work who used to work for a TV station and worked a lot on their electronics there.When I asked him about the y-adapters he was a little concerned about splitting the signal that way since the load would change as well. He s... | |
Bi-amping B&W 703's Thanks Robr45,I thought that if only one channel from the preamp goes into an unbridged stereo amp I'd only get an output signal on one side of the amp (basically one side isn't used due to a lack of the signal).Does that mean I'd have to split th... | |
Bi-amping B&W 703's Robr45when you say unbridged stereo operation with 1 amp per speaker do you mean using only one channel of each amp per speaker.When the amps are in the stereo setting I really would need only one amp for the pair of speakers. Maybe I misunderstan... | |
New to tubes Hmmm, now you've got me thinking even more about getting into tubes myself.I've got a pair of B&W 703's currently driven by a pair of Electrocompaniet AW220's and a Musical Fidelity A308CR preamp.So far I haven't done any research but might ju... | |
Bi-amping B&W 703's Guess I should not have said mono mode. The Electrocompaniet amp have a little button at the back that allows you to switch from stereo to mono, but I'm not sure if that's the same as bridging on other amps.Considering that I'd need more speaker c... | |
B&W 703 - How to tame the highs? Same prob here, I've just recently posted to find some suggestions for what to do to help with my 703's.I've auditioned mine with a Classe CA2200 and very much liked them, but couldn't find a used one at the time.Went with a Musical Fidelity A308C... | |
Wife wants a black faced receiver to replace Rotel No sure how far you wanna go but you could remove it and find a company to anodize it black for you.I've had the same prob with my Musical Fidelity A308CR preamp. Wanted it in black and just made one at work and had it anodized black.Have to admit... |
