| Can I use a multichannel amp to bi-amp my speakers I had a nice Theta Intrepid which I used to biamp Meadowlark Audio Heron (hot rod version) and BG Corp 520DX. I ran directly from the source, a modded Oppo BDP 83SE, using the 2 channel outs and the FR/FL to drive 4 channels of the amp. I though... | |
| Rare and non-heavy advertised Ribbon \ Foil cables? You could obtain Duelund's silver foil wire from Parts Connexion, from $7-31 per foot, and build your own. Vintage power cords from Wolff Audio and Electraglide were also ribbons. | |
| Bi Amping Kellymack----I'm biamping a DIY set of speakers that are similar to Legacy Focus using a big 805/300B SET tube amp (45w) to drive the midbass drivers, midranges, and tweeters while I've used some big bruiser integrateds to drive the 2 12" woofers ... | |
| Best sounding CD Players with Variable Outputs to use Direct into Power Amp? I've run several cdp direct over the last couple of decades, almost always with excellent results (the only one that benefited from a volume control upstream was the Consonance SACD 2.0). Your price point could be a bit tricky though. You might ... | |
| Silver Wire hazyj------Perhaps the lower resistance/inductance is a major factor in the improved sound of the doubled-up silver-clad 16 gauge wire vs the single run of the 18 gauge Anti-cables wire but this same 18 gauge wire was quite a bit better than the 1... | |
| Silver Wire Greetings Dragunski--- I have a pair of DIY speakers that are similar to Legacy Focus in design. The builder used stranded copper wire and they sounded quite good that way. I re-wired them internally with the heavy gauge Anti-cables speaker c... | |
| Questions About Bulk Power Cable, Sugestions Needed I've been through numerous power cords over the last few years, everything from Gutwire, Stealth, Electraglide, Fusion Audio, 6Sons Audio...... and so forth. Eventually, I began trying different wire with premium plugs ( I prefer the Oyaide 046 a... | |
| Warm sounding power cord for for CD player to suppress digital glare on vocals. I had a similar problem with a pair of custom speakers using Eton metal dome mids and tweeters. The detail was fantastic but too many cd's had that upper midrange glare you're referring to. I would probably have just sold the speakers but they w... | |
| Ideal Cheap Low-Watt Amp for Martin Logan Quest What if you ran the amp, ideally a higher powered one, off of a generator used specifically for that purpose? | |
| looking for truly transparent affordable amp s Zd542---putting the KAV 250 in the same league as the Aleph 0's intrigues me. I demoed, in home for a week, an Alternative Audio CA100, which I was told by the dealer, was a similar design to the Alephs and of similar sound (he said the AA CA100 w... | |
| looking for truly transparent affordable amp s Dick--thank you for illustrating the Pass Labs XA30.5 info. That changes things a bit. I'll look further into that option. Much appreciated! | |
| looking for truly transparent affordable amp s Beavis---my SET amp is 45w into an 8 ohm load and it drives the custom speakers to perfection unlike the similarly powered gainclones I've tried. I have been interested in the Decware amps but, aside from the more pricey monoblocks, find them all ... | |
| looking for truly transparent affordable amp s Aolmrd1241----thanks for the suggestion of the Taranis amp. The review sounded promising although the lack of RCA inputs seems oddJrinkerptdnet----all my sources have variable outputs (including a Revox tuner) and I seldom come close to turning an... | |
| Matching the sensitivity of two amps for bi-amping I've been biamping a pair of DIY speakers that are similar in design to the Legacy Focus using a pair of Peerless 12" woofers per side as well as Eton midbass, midrange, and tweeters. The bass drivers seem ever so slightly less efficient than the ... | |
| Speaker cables to smoothen things up I don't have much experience with speaker cable experimentation but I've tried numerous interconnects and power cords over the last few years. My system was very dynamic with a pair of Fusion Audio Enchanter power cords and a Virtual Dynamics Plat... |
