| Electrostatic Speakers Vs. Horn/component Tweeter My current setup is how ML recommended I configure it until I can get a dedicated amp. Set to large mode, there is no need for a sub. They sound incredible and have plenty of bass. But when turned up, my receiver overheats on heavy bass songs a... | |
| Electrostatic Speakers Vs. Horn/component Tweeter The receiver is a 9 channel receiver with 9x150w 8ohn channels. Designed to do a 9.1 or 9.2 setup. Instead of doing front left and right and front high left and right, there is an option to bi amp the left and right which is what I’ve done. Sin... | |
| Electrostatic Speakers Vs. Horn/component Tweeter I’m running ESL X’s on a Denon 4520CI | |
| Electrostatic Speakers Vs. Horn/component Tweeter My receiver won’t utilize the subwoofer if the main speakers are set to stereo mode and large speakers. Setting them to small, tells the receiver to use the sub for low frequencies and thus reduces the draw from the speakers. My receiver is biamp... | |
| Electrostatic Speakers Vs. Horn/component Tweeter I’m currently bi-amping it off a 4520CI Denon receiver, which meets specs per MFG standards, but realistically doesn’t meet specs for the speakers. While ML says it will work, everything else I’ve read, states it can draw as low as 1 ohm, which i... | |
| Electrostatic Speakers Vs. Horn/component Tweeter I have some Martin Logan ESL’s. I guess what I’m asking is.. if they get “damaged” from over or under powering them, should I expect catastrophic failure, or slow degradation of quality? I had some issues early on with my receiver overheating wh... | |
| I wasn’t sure where to classify this… As you suggested, I will get more water. It’s cheap, easy to store, and a lot better to get now than to try and get after a disaster. Thanks for the advice! Another quick question. When hooking up a portable generator with a bonded neutral, sh... | |
| I wasn’t sure where to classify this… @mwjones I have no doubts that what you are stating is true, and I can’t imagine dealing with all of what you listed. I have a few advantages (assuming they were done right). My roof is 3 years old (I’m assuming it was damaged and replaced due t... | |
| I wasn’t sure where to classify this… @ricmci This house was built in 1988 and still standing. I’ve never experienced a hurricane, so it’s going to be an interesting experience the first time. That said, as I stated previously, I have a 3 story house on the top of a hill on a slope.... | |
| I wasn’t sure where to classify this… @baylinor my generator is dual fuel and will run off propane. I have 5 propane tanks full atm, which would get me through a few days, and to my understanding, propane is easier to get after a storm than gas. @thecarpathian my generator is dual f... | |
| I wasn’t sure where to classify this… @scott22 You obviously have never lived outside of Cali. The beaches near me have softer sand, water that is so clear that I can see the ground at 6ft deep, you don’t need a suit or to swim in the ocean comfortably. If it rains, I can go in the w... | |
| I wasn’t sure where to classify this… I have an inverter generator but it’s only 3000w and it’s gas only. An inverter generator that will kick out 6000+ watts would cost thousands of dollars. If I could afford to go that route, I might as well install a permanent whole home backup g... | |
| I wasn’t sure where to classify this… @erik_squires My house was built in 88, so I don’t have a whole home surge suppressor. My AV gear runs on the non battery back up side of my UPS for surge protection, and my networking gear is on the battery backup side. If there is a power outa... | |
| I wasn’t sure where to classify this… @builder3 I already have a Firman H07552 Generator. | |
| I wasn’t sure where to classify this… @tablejockey Ha! I went from owing 50% of the value of my home and needing about $70k/year income to survive, to selling that house and with the proceeds, buying a house twice the size, cash. Once my car is paid off, I can survive off of $15k/ye... |
