| why do people think the LINN LP 12 is so superior to the Thorens (say 165 super) Thoren, TD145-166 a lot were made or the 121 or 124 are all better. Tons of parts too.. I sure like the way the 121 and 124 look in a heavy plinth. SQ.. very special with a 9 or 12" arm and quiet.. You can't tell what I like can ya? :-)Regards | |
| Subwoofer Connection: Speaker Level Amp to Line Level on Sub? Tape out is not the same as pre out. If you use tape out it will bypass the volume control on the EVO! <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>&... | |
| Best Way To Maximize Preamp Tube Life? Pulling tubes and running a circuit without all them in there is absolutely the WRONG thing to do unless you know exactly how the circuit is designed. You can destroy a filament supply (or a tube in it), or overwork a B+ (high voltage) supply if... | |
| Bi Wiring Speakers from Luxman L-509X Then answer me this what happen if the two frequencies are hit at the same time, What does the amplifier see then? It seems the sim is showing the the two different frequencies but not at the same time.I'm sure there are a lot of fancy terms, I've... | |
| Bi Wiring Speakers from Luxman L-509X I understand what Erik is talking about, that is impedance curves at the driver, it has nothing to do with load to the amplifier. The article is talking about how to CORRECT with a crossover design. Proper XO point and knowing the driver by doing ... | |
| Best Way To Maximize Preamp Tube Life? Just don’t use them, they will last forever.. Read ON..Kind of like running tubes in a MM or MC phono circuits but you use neither and use and external phono pre amp.. Pull the valves.. It won’t hurt a thing. Save them for when you need new ones..... | |
| Bi Wiring Speakers from Luxman L-509X OP your math is correct..IF you have dual binding post at the speaker, bi wiring is a second pair of cables from the same common output post on your power amp..If you have a single set of binding post at the speaker, your doubling the run, but not... | |
| Bi Wiring Speakers from Luxman L-509X The high pass crossover has high impedance at low frequencies and the low pass crossover has high impedance at high frequencies.So " - to -, and + to +" basically still = 8 ohms. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<&... | |
| Bi Wiring Speakers from Luxman L-509X So highs @ 8 ohmslows @ 8 ohms- to -, and + to + = 4 ohmsbi wired = the same resistance @ 4 ohms, the difference is the size of the conductor doubled (if you used the same size cable).It might sound different if two different types of conductors w... | |
| Cable co. is forcing me to rent or buy what they call a I know if they would only invent a dual nose hair trimmer, heck ears too, don't stop there...:-)Ok time for a little electroshock therapy, some habits are hard to break..Regards | |
| Unplug or ride out the storm? And here I thought I could raise the dead. :-)I was just gonna hook it up to the neighbors front security door.. Bigger :-)Waist not, want not.. me Mums.Regards | |
| Unplug or ride out the storm? Whoa, whoa, whoa. That is the reason for a ground rod, to shunt the over voltage to ground.. Nothing more.. IF you put up additional lightning rods as diverters to ground that helps in places where you can get clobbered..Outside antenna and a TV s... | |

| Unplug or ride out the storm? 3 or 4 times in 45 years I've unplugged. I hear the thunder and the windows are rattling. I unplug. I was raised in Alabama and Texas as a kid.. I'm still careful around inland water too. The snake thing, it never leaves you.. I'm in the Californi... | |
