| Help me solve another speaker hum thread :) The first thing I would do is make sure the cables are routed correctly. It sounds like cables are plugged, dropped and forgot. 1/2 the time I can fix noise in a system with routing cables at 90 degree crossing and nothing closer than 1/2". Over, ... | |

| To Buy or to DIY, here is my question It's fun, it's frustrating, it's time consuming, it's very gratifying. If your any good at it. The next pair are already in your head. If I was going to DIY right now, I'd go with GR just because they have kits, cabinets or you can DIY too. Sup... | |
| Could this be true, or am I getting the run around.? Well let's see. You sent it in for repair and it's still not repaired. Ask them to repair it FIRST then return it with "tested GOOD 24 hours". I've never heard that one.. Replace the faulty parts, I wouldn't care how it got that way. FIX IT.. S... | |
| What was the most impactful addition to your system? When I plugged it in, last night. I swapped and went to a pair of PSVANE ART series12AX7 in a just repaired C2500. 2 hours later I was impressed. They sounded better than my humpty dumpty pair of Blackburns. I didn’t try them in my C20 but WOW. I’... | |
| Did electrician set up my dedicated subpanel correctly? OK I got it, nice clean set up. It is dedicated and to a room not just a single or double run. Same way I did it. I use wall mount 220/40 AC units in the listening room. The AC is not in the same box I ran all 4 AC units in a separate 100 amp sub ... | |
| Did electrician set up my dedicated subpanel correctly? When you say dedicated what do you mean? It looks like a dual 15 (220/240) and an extra 20 in in the same box. It also looks like the 15s are 2 x # 14 and the 20s are on # 12. The Green looks like # 10. I'm missing something here? The orange ca... | |
| McIntosh -- good for show, not for sound, says dealer OP you see and hear a lot from a person that I can't get past what I AM seeing and hearing. It's simple the guy just turns me OFF. Terms like MiFi and Mcintosh in the same sentence and then infer a lack of knowledge if people disagree. I've hear... | |
| Those who seek to deny access to information Don't worry about the post deletion. Some of us look at post deletion as an Olympic Sport. I think some of the Mods deleting them think the same thing. There's a touchy one on the weekends too.. LOL I swear I almost quit posting on the weekends be... | |
| It comes with a balance knob?!?! I'll take it! It's just like tone control, you don't need it, until you do. Regards | |
| The Best Preamp is no Preamp? I'm using a TD124 a Decware ZP3 and MC240 cables to QSO 808 monitors. So simple. The gain is on the MC240. I was listening to a bunch of Al Greens old LPs yesterday. :-) I added a C20, either or was heaven, the difference was not just tone contro... | |
| Audio nonsense I’ve never worked for anyone that the product they handled, didn’t sell itself. If I had to sell something to someone to fix their equipment. I made it very clear every time "YOU DON’T HAVE TO BUY IT". Conversely if tuning disk don’t work why do ... | |
| McIntosh -- good for show, not for sound, says dealer OH BS, Navajo, code talker!! I can communicate to a 100 different cultures. So what. Brag somewhere else.. Talk is cheap. Teha' te to'. I like peanuts and I have and ingrown toenail. Big deal. How about Gaelic? Regards |
