| Hum from Subwoofers Sounds like your sources are picking up stray mains hum, possibly from transformers or motors that are being amplified by the subs. I'd try running everything without the conditioner. Plug it out and move it away. | |
| AMPLIFIER BLOCKS Procure some thick maple butcher block and some brass cones. Spike wood to floor and sit amp on cones. It will improve focus and sweeten the sound and even if the effect is minimal, it will look good. | |
| Bowers Wilkins/Classe - Anyone had service from them as horrible as me? Somewhat agree with you. However, many amps have protection circuits, some have digital controllers, rebranded components, potted parts etc. A good diagram will have test points with expected voltages. It may not be worth the tech’s time to try de... | |
| Vinyl from Barnes & Noble In fairness, buying new should be new. Period. Is there no consumer protection against this? | |
| Dedicated 20 amp lines/should i use a sub panel Welcome to the perennial problem of dirty power. Turn off all dimmers and use only incandescent bulbs. Heating boilers, appliance motors, phone charging adapters etc all add noise. Note that your hearing is more sensitive late at night so music so... | |
| KEF Q950 or Harbeth 30.2 Maybe look at the Harbeth Super HL5 plus instead of the monitor. However some say Harbeths prefer beefy solid state amps. Whether they are worth springing for depends on how good your source is. You can buy a lot of music for the price difference.... | |
| Move your sub Oh Lordy, my bad. It is indeed Steve Guttenberg and not Mr. Dudley. A simple error rather than oncoming senility. | |
| Dedicated 20 amp lines/should i use a sub panel Thanks @almarg. Yeah, I'll try it with and without the safety ground and see what sounds better. Thanks for your vote of confidence in the amps' wiring! The Speakon black goes to the right speaker ground IIRC. Not sure I'll bother with the second ... | |

| Turntable upgrade recommendations, please. FWIW, there is an Agon member who reviewed your Denon. He replaced it with a Rega P2 and is happy with the upgrade. | |
| Dedicated 20 amp lines/should i use a sub panel Looks like I should expedite my plan to rewire the power cords on the power amps with new OFC cables including connecting the safety ground. I’ve been meaning to do it after changing the power cord on the preamp with very positive results. Thank you. | |
| Dedicated 20 amp lines/should i use a sub panel Jim,Thanks. Correct - that’s how I received it from the seller. Not sure if Stu R. originally did that or if it was the seller. As the REL is fine and grounded, the hum loop may be from the monos. I dunno. The Croft preamp has the safety ground in... | |
