| Buying used audio equipment in peron in Canada Canada is very much it's own country with it's own laws. Any relation to the UK is symbolic. Our country is far more intertwined with the US than any other country in the world. Any "pushing and shoving " is bad for both countries. | |

| If an amp has 4 ohm taps Impedance Curve The link above is the only impedance curve I can find for those speakers (scroll down). It looks like it doesn't go much below 3 ohms but it definitely not a flat curve. My Magnepan LRS+ are 83 dB but have a relatively flat impe... | |
| Getting a Divorce and can now buy floor standing speakers While you are researching your high end speakers, in the meantime get an inexpensive pair of Magnepan LRS+ and maybe a second subwoofer. These will give you a massive soundstage and great imaging. | |
| Setting up stereo Rel subwoofers…. @jastralfu If he sets it up the way REL states like I posted above, the subs won’t need to be moved, the only thing he may have to do is adjust the subs volume down slightly. REL will have you moving the sub around during set up if you only ... | |
| Setting up stereo Rel subwoofers…. For 2 subs, REL recommends placing the subs to the outside (or inside if there's not enough room) of each main speaker. Also, slightly behind the front of the speaker. Hook them up as you said above. Follow REL's instructions for making adjustmen... | |

It has switches that allow you to change the voltage, so many different tube types can be used. Also it has "binding posts" on the major caps so you can swap in different capacitors... | |
| What is the first thing you do when you unwrap a new vinyl record? Peel off the hype sticker, if there is one, and apply it to an outer sleeve. Open and inspect. Clean in the ultrasonic machine and add the album to Discogs while doing so. When dry, play the album and check out the artwork. When done, place in... | |
| REL speakon connection to amp vs speakers I have not found any difference between connecting at the amps vs speakers with my pair of REL T5x on several different amps except for my Naim. For some reason the volume output was reduced when connected at the amp. With stereo pairs, REL rec... | |
| Magnepan LRS+ resistors on the tweeters… which? From what I gather from the manual LRS+ are optimized to sound excellent in a good room (treated/ not too lively) and that they do, very much so. They included resistors to help correct a less than optimal room. When I first got my pair, I found ... | |
| Phono stage for second system +1 on the iPhono3 Black Label Very small footprint, 85dB noise floor, gain settings from 36 to72 dB, it sounds amazing. | |
| Cold weather storage The big thing to worry about is moisture and maybe extreme temperature changes. I have had a system in my detached garage for over 10 years and it still works perfectly. The garage is unheated but is insulated so I don't have those issues menti... | |
