| Belles research? Anyone here know the real measure power output of the Belles SA-30 ?Belles rates it at 30 watts into 8 ohms and 32 amps of current. So it is probably closer to 45-50 watts and doubles down each time. 45/8, 90/4, 180/2. Just my guess.I've heard ... | |
| Belles research? IMHO, the 150A is a much better amp than the older 250.The 150 came in an "A" version and a HOT ROD version in addition to just the regular 150 original issue. Try to find the "Hot Rod" version if possible. It’s a killer amp. http://www.soundstage... | |
| Belles research? David (Belles) makes wonderful sounding gear. Flies under the radar for some reason.I was never a Belles dealer, but I’ve owned the 20A, 21A Auricap, 22A preamps and the 150A Hot Rod, 150A Reference and 350A Reference amps. I still have a 150A amp... | |
| Beatles on Sunday Back in the early to mid eighties, I hosted a local Saturday morning show from 8AM-10AM called "Breakfast With The Beatles".Did trivia questions for prizes and had a small call-in segment.What a blast that was. | |
| Squashed(?) LRS 60%-70% of the volume you would normally critically listen to them at. Just use a constant volume setting, no need to raise or lower it.Play music. No need for a test or burn-in CD with sweeps. Music works best. | |
| Squashed(?) LRS I've heard they really need 400 hrs for proper breakin. Can anyone confirm this? On the smaller models, 200-300 hours. The larger models, 400-500 hours. | |
| Squashed(?) LRS I could also notice swapping the panels (ribbon tweeter inside vs outside) changed the "shape" of the presentation. In the Maggie community, this is debated almost as much as Analog vs. Digital or Tube vs. Solid State.I have setup well over 100... | |
| Squashed(?) LRS I was a Magnepan dealer for many years. That happens every once in awhile.The cloth just gets stuck to the panel. Play the speaker and it should release after a short time. | |
| Record Store Day 2020 LIst What I've noticed is many of the RSD titles become avalible later anyway. There has always been a section titled "Record Store Day First Release". All of these listed under that banner will be available after RSD sometime.The sections are:RELE... | |
| Record Store Day 2020 LIst OK now, you're taking be this culling thing much too seriously. Time for an intervention Wouldn't that be a reverse intervention :-) | |
| Record Store Day 2020 LIst First time in years, all of the records I own now fit in my record rack....... Must be nice :-) | |
| Record Store Day 2020 LIst Wish I was local to Plaid Room. I ordered my SYEOR titles online from them, (GREAT prices btw). I’d love to go in and see what they have. I’ve seen pictures of their place, but would love to visit.I plan on pre-ordering some of the 2020 Ten Bands,... | |
| Record Store Day 2020 LIst I bought a few of the SYEOR (Start Your Ear Of Right) titles from Plaid Room. Excellent folks!I found a few on the new RSD list, but agree, it wasn't all that great this year. I seem to be out of the loop on most of the artists...I've never he... | |
| Ortofon blue If I recall correctly, 2M red, blue and silver use the same body. 2M bronze and black use a different body. I think you should be good to try the silver stylus on the blue body. +1...That’s exactly right!According to Ortofon, the Blue is better th... | |
| Mundorf Silver Caps When I upgraded/modified/updated the interfaces on my Acoustat 2+2's, I used the Mundorf EVO Alum+Oil caps. WOW! |
