| Help with hookup As the meters on the mc352 are responding to the signal from the preamp, I suspect " it " is at the amp end. What are the speaker wire connections you are using, both at the amp end and the speaker end ? If you are using bare wire, make sure enoug... | |
| Toshiba TX 2500 Vintage Receiver question Are you hearing a thump through your speakers at turn on ? My understanding is, the majority of Japanese built, as well as Taiwan, Singapore and China built receivers, used speaker output relays, the relay you are not hearing. I would not worry ab... | |
| New Preamp arrived.... I appreciate those that find an active preamp, the end all to great sound. I have experienced passive devices for many years, but until I received my Luminous Axiom II, Walker modded unit, it was either / or for me. I am not trying to be a shill h... | |
| THE NEW POLK LEGEND SERIES Burn in is very real....Why are people here, still responding to kenjit ? | |
| JADIS DEFY7, can not get it to sing I do not understand one thing you say. " I can not stand a warm sound ". Tubes add warmth. Yes, some designs, some tubes, more than others, but, they all, do, add warmth, even the mega dollar units. I choose to not use tubes, for that very reason.... | |
| Help with hookup @fortin, your original post indicated the " m " before the c2300. The mc2300 is a power amp, which is why the question was asked. Now that we have that out of the way, describe to us the hook up, please, so we can help you. | |
| Klipsch, introduces The Cornwall IV, and I think it will be a killer ! The mid horn in the Cornwall IV is larger than that of the Forte III. My 1st Klipsch speaker that I owned ( before my bar mitzvah ), was the CW, using vertical mid and tweet horns. I modded them as much as I could, and, they were amazing.....These... | |
| NUPRIME EVOLUTION ONE-BEST CLASS D AMP ON THE MARKET @audiozen , back in the day, I sold, and installed, Spectral gear, as well as owning a few pieces. What I have not experienced, was a Spectral preamp driving another branded amp, and vis a versa. Always paired together. Also, only with MIT cables ... | |
| NUPRIME EVOLUTION ONE-BEST CLASS D AMP ON THE MARKET @audiozen , there is something to be said about an audio product having a heavy, massive chassis. Yes, it costs money....but like a tube, a flimsy chassis can have vibrational issues, both mechanically, and acoustically, that might not be measurab... | |
| JADIS DEFY7, can not get it to sing @mozartfan, you asked, so here it goes....I have kinda supported you throughout your journey, but I have to say ( and I do not mean any harm ), that, you are all over the place. Take a deep breath, relax, wait for the Leaf, as you did order it, an... | |
| Klipsch speaker choices All good ! | |
| Klipsch speaker choices BTW, the Heresy IVs will be incredible, imo.........but, if you have the room, and budget, the CW IV will be the finest, of all that were mentioned. | |
| Klipsch speaker choices @daledeee1, damp the horns, using Dynamat, or a similar type material, as well as the woofer frames and cabinet panels, and things will smooth out and tighten up. @big_greg. Except for the removable back panels of the original Heresy and Cornwall,... | |
| Considering simplifying my system... talk me down (or whatever) @cat345....Really ? A turbo designed set of Klipschorns, replaced by the Harbeths you recommended ? You need to listen to a pair of properly set up, properly driven Khorns. However, to each his / her own. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| JADIS DEFY7, can not get it to sing stereo5, whatever dude......handbags are an excellent example of copying a design. I see nothing wrong with it. It gives women, and possibly, some men, satisfaction, that they can own a $3500. look alike for under $100. If you look at the parts in... |
