| Vintage preamp/amp power cords One of my early mods long ago, replaced the factory cord. Only my approach was, long as I got the soldering iron out.... hardwired the new one in.This was back when I wasn't really even sure it would make a difference. Now I would still recommend ... | |
| Why the fascination with subwoofers? steaksterI moved my Talon Roc out to sell and have more room. But it turns out I have plenty of room. Soon as I can find the time its going back in. Mine's powered so I will be able to set it to do very little but add a little at the extreme low e... | |

| Doing the Power Cord Thing I wanted to go from a 2m pair to 1m, of the same kind. When I did, the left side was just a little low. Probably less than 2 dB. I replaced them with a pair of WW Eclipse 7 Gold I wasn’t using which were the right length. I had gotten frustrat... | |
| Why the fascination with subwoofers? lewinskih01 One material aspect of their research was time delay between the subs in the room, which is something I can't do with my setup. Neither can the SWARM system, yet Noble100 and Millercarbon report very good results, so I'm intrigued. ... | |

| Used 5ch Amp (Classe, Krell, Rotel) There are no really good 5 channel amps. There are no really good 5 channel anything. 5 channel is Home Theater. HT is a wasteland.Already you have noticed. No multi-channel anything sounds as good as 2 channel. You know this from listening. All y... | |
| Double Advent wiring question... Actually the way you describe it, if I'm reading you right, sounds like parallel which if they are 8 ohm speakers will yield a 16 ohm load. If when you visualize the wire and the terminals it looks like a ladder, that is parallel. To get a 4 ohm l... | |
