| Decware and “The List” I wouldn't offer more than $3500 even if sealed , warranty transfer is costly with the mandatory purchase of new tubes I just don't see the value in buying a used Decware. Part of its allure is the Lifetime Warranty. To obtain a warranty tran... | |
| have a pair of Tekton Perfect Set 15s but need a lighter speaker Any speaker that is as sensitive as the Tektons won't be much smaller. If you like their sound , get some of those heavy duty furniture slider pucks. Put one under each corner. | |
| Dummy Speaker Load I should add that its best to use a mono source , maybe interstation noise on an FM tuner with the switch on my tuner set to mono. | |
| Sold a component and bought it back, am I nuts? My guess was TMR because they lost like $750 on something I traded in. Some things just don't bring the money that they are expected to. Naim is good stuff, gotta wonder how they lost on that transaction. | |
| Dummy Speaker Load Or you can try this. https://www.amazon.com/Parts-Express-Non-Inductive-Dummy-Resistor/dp/B0002KRDGC | |
| Dummy Speaker Load Something easier you can do if the speakers are easy to move is this. Reverse the plus and minus speaker leads on one speaker. Put the speakers face to face. Close to each other. Now when you turn up the volume the volume should be a lot low... | |

| Recommendations for a vacum tube tester The 600A is a good unit for home use. You can order "bogey" tubes from Brent Jessee. They have preamp bogey tubes and power bogey tubes. The word "Bogey" is basically a perfect of a 6l6 . Likewise with a bogey preamp tube, which is a 12v... | |
| Is it time that Klipsch Heritage marketing a subwoofer? I have a REL sub, its been good but I would love a sub that matched and complemented my Forte IV. | |
| What's your experience with snooty HiFi salesmen? I just bought a cartridge at Natural Sound. I was surprised at how many they had on hand to choose from Larry and Mark at Natural Sound are good guys. I prefer to shop locally when I can and will take the 45 min drive to Nashua often to save ... | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! I would urge you to listen. Totally different presentation from conventional speakers. | |
| Unscrupulous ebay buyers I hate eBay also. I'm actually afraid to sell a bunch of stuff on eBay due to horror stories like this. As a side note, I recently got back into vinyl. I picked up an Ortofon 2M Bronze and when I set it up it didn't sound that great. I heard... |
