| Is it that time of the month? Definitely #1.Switched to boats and fishing spending very close to 10x...Now want to add a sub...urban(prefere 6.5 TDiesel) and trailer to tow my toy to different places. | |
| totem model 1 signature You'll have a big step-up from Paradigms since they're also great nearfield.They're exceptionally detailed and clear sounding and I-5 can rock them with ease although I'd prefere Plinius 8200 or Primere with these speakers. | |
| Class A Amplifiers and impedance dips F#$k specs! It's all about what an Amp CAN do and what an Amp CAN'T and it's completely upto YOU to judge. | |
| Correlation: Money and Good Sound What size lady's or yours? | |
| Motorized volume speed adjustment I guess you have to play with magnetic forces rather than playing with electric ones in that case.Play with starting inductance values if such exists or try to play with two-pole magnet either increasing or decreasing a magnetic field arround the ... | |
| new gear vs used gear Fatparrot,I do buy tubes cartridge, arm and TT new.The rest of my components either used or refurbed.As to electronics I'm OK with no warranty to fix problems myself. | |
| new gear vs used gear New is always initially overpriced except few manufacturers that bypass dealers. | |
| Douglas Self on Negative feedback and distortion Hammy,If you carefully read specs of cheap 100W Yamaha you'll realize that distortion level is measured at 1kHz @1W of output power. Whatever reaches 100W you may only assume what kind of junk you're realy getting. Normally this cheap Yamaha will ... | |
| First time Biasing tubes No it's NOT right!Bias slots are ONLY for the RED lead of your voltmeter.The black ground lead of your voltmeter should be connected to chassis or ground speaker binding post.RIGHT and LEFT mards I assume are for master bias controlls for each CHA... | |
| Douglas Self on Negative feedback and distortion You're right,The control theory states that negative feedback MAINLY exists to keep amplifier stable.An amplifier at the same time can have multiple stages of amplifications which we also can consider as an amplifiers.A global negative feedback i.... | |
| Class A Amplifiers and impedance dips Gs,Not only the power supply but output transistors also have a characteristics to react on different loads as well as delivered current limitations. | |
| First time Biasing tubes In some of VTL models there's one extra bias pot which is called Master Bias that regulates the bias current on all of the tubes.In some tube models designers would place an extra bias pot onto each PP pair of tubes to adjust them both and each on... | |
| The music companies do something wrong Synthfreek and Marco,HA..HA..HA..HA..HA!!!!!! | |
| Match made or not In my experience all B&W speaker have one thing in common: Weak Bass.No matter how much power you'll try to throw on each one of these they won't have a desired bass.I strongly suggest to try out Sonus Faber Grand Piano before jumping onto mor... | |
| Quicksilver pre to 240V Most-likely you'll have extra taps from you power transformer or a simple switch that you should locate to bring it to 120V.Krell and ML for instance charges $300 just to turn the switch onto the different position. It exceeds hourly rate of Merce... |
