| Classe DR-15 amplifier compared to Classe Dr-9 Sorry for the late reply. I was using one Dr-15 to drive Apogee Stages and found the resulting sound slow and sluggish. I was also using a passive preamp so there may have been an impedence issue. Buying a second DR-15 resulted in a faster sound a... | |
| Problem w/ Rotel RCD-865 & Musical Fidelity x-dac It's not the cable as I've tried other cables and the problem persists with the Rotel digital output | |
| Which screwdriver needed for Musical Fidelity A324 It takes a Torx screwdriver but the center has to be hollowed out. I tried the hardware stores without luck. I'll try an auto parts store. Thanks. | |
| VPI Scoutmaster with Super Platter I found the periphery ring to give more of an improvement than the SDS. Roy Gregory (of HiFi + or some such magazine) also found the same thing. His review can be found online and he talks in detail about this. | |
| Can a fuse affect sound quality in my Classe Amps There is switch for selecting regular and balanced inputs but Classe still advised that it could cause a ground loop by having two inputs connected at the same time. I decided not to drive my amps directly unless i first disconnect the xlr cables ... | |
| Can a fuse affect sound quality in my Classe Amps The reason the fuses blew were because I was using a phono preamp to drive the amps directly using the single ended inputs of the Classe Dr-15's, while at the same time having another preamp connected into the xlr inputs of the amps. This last pre... | |
| Do all Passive preamps exhibit this trait I may have disovered the trouble. For the past two weeks I have been using my Krell 300cd player with single ended interconnects. Previously (for 6 years) I had been using it balanced. With a full-level 1kHz sinewave, the output from the 300cd is ... | |
| Do all Passive preamps exhibit this trait Thanks Elizabeth for responding. I too feel that the GFP-750 is a fine preamp in passive mode and for the money is a bargain. My only serious complaint with the GFP-750 is better described in this excerpt from an online magazine review:At various ... | |
| Do all Passive preamps exhibit this trait I am using the Adcom gfp-750 with two Classe Dr-15 amps (in bridged mode), Apogee Stage speakers, Marantz SA-1 SACD Player, Krell 300cd player, Herron MM phono stage with VPI Scoutmaster turntable. Cables have been Cardas Golden Reference (very lo... | |
| Why does my Rotel cd player skip? I discovered the problem. One of the two springs which help to hold the compact disc in place on the tray had come loose. I re-attached it and all is fine again, no skips. Thanks to all who replied. | |
| Classe DR-6 or Adcom GFP-750 The Adcom GFP-750 seems to get little respect on this forum, yet if you read every online magazine review the opposite is true, it's compared favourably to preamps costing 2-3 times its price. Used passively I have a gut feeling that it's an excel... | |
| PS Audio UPC-200 problem. The problem was a loose board slotted into the main board. After pushing this board in with my hand the problem was corrected. Works perfectly again. PS Audio told me to do this and their customer service was great (very prompt emails). | |
| Classe DR-15 amplifier compared to Classe Dr-9 As Mofimadness suggested it may be a side step rather than an upgrade to replace the Dr-15's with DR-9's. I'm using the Dr-15's with Apogee Stages and a passive preamp. There appears to be a real synergy happening and I'm very pleased with the sou... | |
| How much air into Townshend 3-D Seismic Sink Thanks for responding to my post. Do you think this is an excellent isolation platform? The pump that came with my Seismic sink isn't the original but a bike pump. When unscrewing the pump from the Seismic Sink valve after pumping up the air bladd... | |
| Any opinions on PS Audio Power Plants I'm wondering for an improvement in sound quality is it worth purchasing a PS Audio P500 Power Plant when I already have two Ultimate Outlet's? The UO's work very well though they definitely work best when you don't mix digital and analog into the... |
