| Ohms and WPC??? Most higher powered amps will not be affected by dropping to a four ohm load. Generally amps output ratings double as the load halves but that is not always the case. A four ohm load is not usually difficult for and amp to drive. I don't think in ... | |
| Speaker priority: high or low??? Asa I don't know how I missed your comments here. I like your starting point and actually used a very similar approach. Once I thought I had the pre-amp at the appropriate quality level I pursued other things. I tended toward the front end and hav... | |
| Purist Audio new cables I have used the Purist burn-in disc with great success on several PAD cables. To my ear it really sped up the process.Inna does TWLs liking his own system damage his credibility or enhance it? I know for a fact that he does not own any Purist cabl... | |
| What did he say? Misunderstood lyrics. Years ago I read a story about Barry Manilow. He told about a letter he got that said; "my mom and I really love your new song but what does 'looks like tomatos' mean?"The real lyrics were: "looks like we made it." | |
| What did he say? Misunderstood lyrics. formulaone That was about the best explanation for any question I have ever seen. WOW! | |
| Review: Krell FPB-200 Amplifier I don't think taking the business to China is bad for the workers. The workers though probably don't benefit much. My sister-in-law lived there, and the impression I have is for the most part it doesn't matter where you work the wages are all bad.... | |
| Review: Purist Audio Design Proteus Interconnect I'm getting a pair of Museaus soon and I'm curious about how it compares to the Colossus. I talked to someone else about the Venustas vs Dominus and they thought Dominus was still the better cable, but I can't speak from experience.I would like to... | |
| Review: Krell FPB-200 Amplifier Zaikesman, that's a real concern now. I have read in Stereophile that there are other companies producing product in China. I wish I had paid closer attention so I could tell you who they were. I am in business and understand the need to make a bu... | |
| TT suggestions -- please I would be the last person to argue with Tom, but I really like the Sota TTs and you should be able to get a better model at the price range you are looking in. You can buy factory refurbished tables right from them too. It's like getting the best... | |
| Bug Ugly Wow I thought this thread was going to be about me. Imagine my disappointment! Swampwalker is right. Those plywood looking B&W speakers are hideous. The first time I saw them I was in the basement alone listening and I couldn't stop screaming.... | |
| Review: Krell FPB-200 Amplifier Sean the lack of clothes would probably be okay around the house but it makes it tough to go out for dinner. I know it can be very frustrating to shop. I had to pass on several Christmas gifts for my boys because I could not find them made anywher... | |
| 40' speaker cable..will I loose sound quality? At these lengths even the lowest impedence cables will show a real loss of sound quality. Try to avoid this setup if you can. | |
| which component should i put the better cable on? Ultimately you have to decide where it sounds better, but my two cents would be to put the best cord on the source. Componants down stream will never add what was missing at the start. Another issue might be the application for which the cord was ... | |
| Review: Krell FPB-200 Amplifier I am trying to find the right IEC connector so I can use my DIY powercords. The socket on the back of the Krell is not the standard 15 amp connection. I think it is a 20 amp, but I'm not sure. I have a couple people working on it for me. Everytime... | |
| High end vs internet I went to a HiFi shop about an hour from where I live to listen to a pair of $11,500 Talon Peregrine X speakers. After waiting for at least a half hour to be helped by the only person in the store who knew anything about the speakers I was brought... |
