| Amps from the 1980's -- What gear holds up sonically? Reliably? HEA=High End Audio. I have had so much gear in my lifetime. What is interesting was / is the transition of the " hard wired " power cords on most of this vintage equipment, to the now widely use of IEC inlets. One of the many tweaks I did on all o... | |
| Speaker vibration control device Look up on Amazon = Rubber Door Stopper / Bumpers. $10 for package of 4. Originally to prevent door knob damage to walls. I use them on many items. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| i am starting to think Audiogon profits off the spam... I have been reporting these as spam, and move on. No big deal. I still get marketing calls on my cell, and I have protections / walls to prevent them. MrD. | |
| Isolation footers for Rega Elicit, Saturn-R I have been using for many years, " Rubber Door Stopper / Bumpers ", originally sold for the purpose of providing wall protection from door knobs. Also great for under bookshelf speakers, speakers on stands, and floor speakers on non carpeted floo... | |
| Is there an rca input selector box audio only 2ch in 1 out? The Bay is the place to look. I am sure you can find one there. | |
| Reco for a low power amp to try BTW, If a dealer will not do a loan, offer to rent it for a day. I have done it in the past. | |
| Reco for a low power amp to try P.S. The new Pass Sit 3 is 18 wpc into 8 ohms, not 8, and is $4K. | |
| Reco for a low power amp to try To the OP. Reading some of your other threads and posts, it seems you change equipment often ( I am sorry ). Your Proacs are 89 db. You like Pink Floyd a bit loud ( although, probably not as loud as myself ). The Klipsch Heresys mentioned by the a... | |
| Nuforce STA200 Removed my last post because it was about another amplifier, rather than the STA 200. Sorry for not keeping the thread on track. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Older or Modern amp for older Speakers (NHT 3.3) When I had my 3.3s, I vertically biamped them, passively, with a pair of Hafler 9505s that were modified by Musical Concepts. Significantly more energy, detail and dynamics than a single amp. The 3.3s benefit from biamping…...Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| Krell XD gear in the House Initial Impressions There is no question that the original thread was an advertisement of Krell products, as is this one. I owned original KSA products. Enjoy ! MrD. | |
| How do you properly set up a horn speaker JohnK, you stated quite a while ago that you preferred Altec 19s over any Klipsch model. That is fine and dandy with me, as we disagree on that point, but I do not think you are suggesting that the 19s are good at nearfield listening. What horns a... | |
| Nuforce STA200 Hey Jetter, Japol and all you other audio gents. Japol, if your STA is causing a hiss through your speakers, without anything connected to the amp's inputs, I would say this is not normal. Either the amp is defective, and / or, the amp, or the spe... | |
| Why Power Cables Affect Sound I cannot believe people here are still communicating with this mzk " guy ". He is unwilling to try an aftermarket power cable, and listen for him / her self. Whatever is said to him, means absolutely nothing. He is doing what he does, as many befo... | |
| How do you properly set up a horn speaker Excellent info from Duke. I feel distance between the speakers ( horns, and in this case the 1.4s ) and the listener is very critical, and requires a greater amount of distance between the two. I am thinking the " honking thing " batman mentioned ... |
