| Grounding turntable to stop static pop. OP, be aware that cable and router boxes can cause a lot of noise in your stereo. Look there if your using it for a source.Noise, routing is usually a problem, cables just can't be plugged and dropped.. NONE of my cables touch. It looks like "Cab... | |
| Broken ground phono connection Is a 5vdc ground the same as a 120vac ground? Not ALL grounds are equal. Really they are not.. AND you don't want them to be either.. A 5 volt dc computer ground is not shared with 120 volt ac ground.. A - doesn't always mean ground, there can be ... | |

| Powering Old Infinity towers with Peachtree 125 sky-- with analog EQ It depends on how you wire it. In series there won't be a problem.RSIIIa easy to drive.. Try them alone first.. I have a few RSIIbs, RS4b and 2 pairs of the first Infinitesimals. I've always been an early RS Infinity guy.. Regards | |
| Should I replace Denon DL-103R with Dynavector DRT-XV1 mounted tomic601 I know Mike, to well.. LOL TWO years on a C11, I thought I was going to go NUTS waiting. That was two years ago and I still haven't taken it out of the box. It's a fresh rebuild. He did my C20 at the same time. That took 4 months.. He ... | |
| Is louder better? No, but less background sure does help. 2-4:00 am is the best listening times.. Nice quiet background, low volume listening, valves glowing... That's the best..Drinkin' and volume go together..:-)Regards | |
| 2 Ohm Tekton Pendragons To have GREAT bass from 2R speakers, you will need 8 runs of AWG10 speaker cables to feed it... or, if you want to simulate my setup in a 2R scenario, then it’s 16 pairs of cables! <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<&l... | |
| From the Batmobile to highend electronics If your like the rest of us, we live and learn.. Sometimes the learning curve is a lot more expensive for some than others.. I've churned my way through a few pieces of gear.. Funny thing I never lost money. TIME yes, money no.. Come to think of ... | |
| Bi Wire Question If your adding two amps sources to your speakers, make sure you remove the jumpers from the speakers, ay. I know it something you thought of. BUT some folks forget and leave the jumper in. It is ok if you Bi-wire, but not if you Bi-amp.. That can ... | |
| Is there a way to listen to all audio on iphone and computer at 432 hz...? Get a hold of Guitarsam, he'll fix you right up. He's at 440hz. Enjoy..Regards.. | |
| Should I replace Denon DL-103R with Dynavector DRT-XV1 mounted I went from a 110 and 103r. The 110 was better because I had to use a Denon step up on the 103r (I still have it). The 110 was better. I just got an Ortofon Black MM. It just whips the pants off my 110. 567.00. It was close to the same price as t... | |
| QUESTION about Installing "Matched" Tubes Mercy, they aren't matched that well prof. That's for darn sure. If within 15% is matched.. You're ok.. You want to match the first number and the second number is what is left in the tank.. pretty simple..You want those to be in pairs to.. I'd ... | |
| 2 Ohm Tekton Pendragons If they are like most bass section, they will go from 2-22 ohms without some type smoothing. Phase shift of that magnitude from a bass driver is demanding enough. BUT below 2 to over 20 ohms @ 2-400 hz. That is the reason for the bloated bass a lo... | |
| PASSIVE SUBWOOFER DRIVEN by a 2 CHANNEL PRE-AMP + MONOBLOCK ? Crown, QSC, Behringer (12k) All work well for bass duty.. I really like Behringer 12Ks, 500.00 each. COOL as can be.. Waves in the neighbors pool!!! :-) | |
| 2 Ohm Tekton Pendragons LOL not at 2 ohms MC it just won't happen with a valve amp. A Mac will do 2 ohms in series or paralleled. BUT only in mono. At 4 ohms in mono they sound OK at best. 2 ohms, you could fry eggs on it.. I have no doubt.. The older MC275 get HOT.. @ ... |
