| Threat of fire from audio equipment Reminds me of a 1KW isolation transformer in the TV repair workshop where I worked which went bad. It was mounted on the wooden partition and the really loud vibration and plume of smoke were astonishing. | |
| 3k Budget for Cartridge, Phono-Pre, and Cables - Recommendations Please I don't think the Blackbird is a safe choice. Easily damaged. Ortofon 2M Black or Nagaoka MP500. MM over MC for him in case there are noise issues. | |
| Am I asking too much? The small filter caps won't help. The heater voltage hypothesis is not relevant in this case. The user is hearing quiescent current flowing through the electronics. This is normal. | |
| I want to find these specific knobs What about black? | |
| Hear my Cartridges....🎶 SPU Silver sounds thin and spluttery on much of the pipe blowing, especially in the higher frequencies. | |

| Anyone hear a Croft Integrated Amp? Dude, you’re all over the place!So basically, are you saying you dumped the Croft 25R preamp for the Primaluna pre and a DV-P75 phono? | |

| correct order of connecting a preamplifier, amplifier, and speakers I wasn't certain what the OP meant so I listed the connection order in case they weren't sure. Not everyone is technical.If not powered up, the connection order doesn’t matter at all. When all is connected, power-up; start at source(s) first, then... | |
| Am I the only one that finds the "Round thumbnail frames" irritating on classifieds? If AGon are like many businesses, they may have got stiffed on the design by overcharging consultants and would get ripped off again making further changes out of scope. | |
| correct order of connecting a preamplifier, amplifier, and speakers 1. Source interconnect cables to Preamp input.2. Preamp output to power amp input.3. Power amp output to speakers. | |
