| Help? Bi-Amping With A Pair of Roksan KA-1 Amplifiers You have to listen and see, which sounds better. CLAMP? Your gonna hook it up, LOL The tape loop will get the signal from the Korg, to both amps with one cable by using the "TAPE LOOP". Horizontal bi amping is what you're doing...Not vertical. Dif... | |

| How to select and pair a preamp and power amp? I used the Fraya+ for a very short time, with a pair of Nord, NC500 one ups, Sparco 2590 opAmps. My speakers are pretty picky about crap equipment.Just a wonderful pairing. Plenty of punch, with a nice tube in the pre and SS power amps. BAMB.... ... | |
| Ground loop feedback - cable wire issue Yup, I went through the same thing as fuzztone with a cable box, and Power supply.15.00 usd fixed like new, with a great little GL gizzmo. 3 or 4 (options) one was with a wire added to one of the devices, I didn't have to use it..Safety first, pro... | |

| Having A Tough Time Justifying More Than One Table Regardscleeds3,236 posts09-05-2020 2:45pmoldhvymec... I love the old Garrard Zero 100, not because its a good turntable, but because it looks so cool and fully automatic ...As turntables go, the Zero 100 is one of the great sonic disasters of al... | |
| GROUND LOOPS A good conditioner, 300.00 or so will do it fine. Plug it into the wall if you want NO protection. I would NEVER plug in a piece of equipment into a wall socket. Plane and simple. Safety first, protection second. I've never had a SQ issue because ... | |
| Having A Tough Time Justifying More Than One Table I'm a gear head what can I say...Ok Ok Ok, my comment was ONLY THREE?, Maybe 3 of one kind. I know I have 25-30, units. Maybe 3 are for parts. But at least 20 work as they should, from a TT perspective. I love the old Garrard Zero 100, not because... | |
| Basement listing room I'm of the same opinion. Share the Preamp/receiver, in another room?That doesn't work for me, either. Will it work? yes. Will it be easy to work on, NO! Never understood zones, unless it was an office space with cubicles, or maybe a "KIDS" zone... | |
| l want to build a solid wood turntable I've seen a few handmade tone arms. Wood seems to be a favorite. Oak Apatong, Cherry, Black walnut, birds eye maple, all kinds of plastic, type products too. I saw one guy use Glass, sample draw tubes (open at both ends) 18-24" long about 1/2" OD... | |
| Musing - audiophiles that new just enough to be dangerous If your asking, "Did I ever burn or blow anything up" NO. But I did do a cable drop that cost a fortune. About 12K if you replaced the equipment or 3K to fix it.. I was sick, and still am over that screw up. Never again that's for sure.Regards |
