| best used inexpensive cd only player I don't know about any specific models, but I'd be leery of used CD players. Sometimes parts / fix are problematic, even on some pretty $$$ players. | |
| Airport Express "local clock" issue? No harm / No foul.I have a system problem right now that I'm working and may post If I don't figure it out. I maybe, and probably AM wrong about your system, but going to CA tech support can't hurt. Maybe they've had this issue before? | |
| Loud humming when I connect my DVD player Your friendly electrician can check ground using a 'megger'. | |
| Buzzing from speakers. Where is it coming from? Vern,I don't understand? Disconnect speakers from amp and listen for noise! Good trick. I'll agree with one thing, which I hope is what you MEANT, if not said.disconnect everything but speakers to amp. Even the interconnects. If the hiss disappear... | |
| Buzzing from speakers. Where is it coming from? I'm sorry, I don't mean to mock anybody, but people go to incredible lengths to optimize and choose cables, connectors room treatments, racks and any of the hundred and one things affecting sound. Some items are pretty...shall I say....esoteric? T... | |

| Buzzing from speakers. Where is it coming from? ?My stuff is dead quiet. PSAudio 'd' amp to some panels. you have to turn it up to 'obscene' to hear anything with no source on/selected. | |
| Tweaking the Magnepan 1.7s Keyonka,When you put your tweeters 'in', did you rotate the panel in place or do a L/R swap?I did the rotate in place, the tweeters are now 'in' and I am listening to the pole piece side, NOT the mylar. Big change for the better! | |
| Airport Express "local clock" issue? Vinkim,I'm just getting back to this thread.Call CA tech support and see if there is a software update for your DacMagic.My CA player, the 840c, simply doesn't like the optical output of the AE and does worse than skip. It emits a very harsh, glas... | |
| New Apple iTunes 10 Features Even before ITunes #10, albums could be split up.SoundTrack for 'Brother, Where Art Thou' is really divided up. You can search a number of ways. I'm still going thru some options to see if ITunes #10 is 'better' or not. | |
| Help power pair of Infinity Kappa 9's please Timlub, since apparently you know about the speakers in question, what is the phase data? While <1ohm is wacky and phase at that impedance is probably just academic, I'm curious now.What does anybody do, or HOW does any manufacturer justify thi... | |
| Help power pair of Infinity Kappa 9's please Others will hopefully chime in, but for a PARTY speaker, look no further than CV.WTF, nobody is going to be sitting there, eyes closed, toe tapping to some incredible jazz performance. We're talkin' PARTY here.I have ZERO idea about model, but one... | |

| Tweaking the Magnepan 1.7s Glad you at least gave the pole piece forward a try. Cheap and easy. Sorry you didn't have a positive experience. Mine will stay rotated and be installed that way sometime in '11, when I can build new hardwood frames. | |
| Magnepan observations. Hotmail, I'm on your side. I've also owned panels since at least the early '80s.....before I even bought a CD player...and I WAS the first kid on the block with one....which I still have.The MMG just happens to BE a good value. I remember the Orig... |
