| Male DIN plug on cable cooker phono adapter Ed, now I understand what you're up to: You want to burn in the internal tonearm wires AND the tonearm cable all at the same time, yes? Now, bear in mind that cartridge pins come in (mainly) two different diameters (and so do cartridge clips) I kn... | |
| balanced power for surrounds Another thing (amazing!) about all Bryston gear, is it comes with a twenty year, unconditional, TRANSFERRABLE warranty.. | |
| balanced power for surrounds Well, all amps with balanced circuitry, like most of the Balanced Audio Technology (BAT) some Audio Research, and other more expensive lines, have balanced inputs to take advantage of their balanced circuit design. But many less expensive amps (es... | |
| balanced power for surrounds Do you mean an amp with "balanced inputs" or an amp with "balanced circuitry". You can find B for your B in the first category, not in the second.. | |
| Male DIN plug on cable cooker phono adapter When you say "The pins on the male DIN plug are of much smaller diameter than those on the cartridge." I don't know what exactly you're trying to do, but you shouldn't be bending the pins on your cartridge, yikes!!! And besides, there's no standar... | |
| cartridge loading This subject has been covered extensively in this site. Just fyi, the optimum load for your V will be 75 ohms +/_ 50% (probably more toward minus, like around 50 or 55 ohms.)You can write to Speedy who has one (I have a W) You'll have to email me ... | |
| Budget Power Cords For Tube Mono Amps ? Go to HD and get some 10AWG Carol cord. It's a twisted three conductor stranded copper heavy jacket cord. While you're there, get a nice hospital AC plug (they even have right angle ones at HD!) You'll have to order an IEC plug for the other end f... | |
| Nuforce with Stillpoints ERS fabric I have ers everywhere (one of the Stillpoints people is a friend ;-) but I don't think that would solve your problem.But before you ditch that lovely amp (or the cute dog) could you describe the connection(s) between your TT/TA and the phono pre, ... | |
| What would cause this to happen to a preamp? If it's not a "nervous protection circuit" as Dewald mentioned, then something like an intermittent short (or even an intermittent open circuit) in the IC is overloading the preamp and causing it to shut down. At least those are the only two EXTER... | |
| What would cause this to happen to a preamp? In your description, you talk about the preamp shutting down AND you talk about the amp shutting down too. I'm a bit confused. Did they both shut down? | |
| Is the e-mail sounds like a 'SCAM' ? I think from now on, all such emails should be forwarded to the Dept. of Hom'd Sec. as evidence of possible terrorist activity ;--) | |
| Mark Levinson tech specs You can probably get a service manual from Levinson. They are very prompt in responding. Go to:http://www.marklevinson.com/support/support-form.aspOr phone: 781-280-0300and ask to speak to a service tech. | |
| Is the e-mail sounds like a 'SCAM' ? I agree with the cautions about forgeries. And apply some logic: How does a secretary issue a USPS MO or a cashier's check, huh? Also, that kind of spelling and grammar screams scam ;--)It's an interesting and unusual approach, because the person ... | |
| Confused on cable, interconnects and ac cord? I think one of the best bangs for the buck (both speaker and IC's) is (used) Straightwire Maestro (or Maestro II, they're basically the same). It's a classic neutral cable that used to be top of the line; and it's still in production. Doesn't (any... | |
| Anyone else regenerating A/C? Zaikesman -- you raised an interesting point about biasing tube amps which is always a pain because of fluctuating 120V. I remember I'd bias my amps when the power was highest so the bias wouldn't go over without my knowing it.About PC's: When I o... |
