What power cord do you use for your processor? I see the price went up. My little secret is out.. Looks like a 17% increase. No kidding they are worth 5 times that is SQ compared to just 10 years ago. I use red copper and silver clad copper too with that cable. :-) Close to the same vendor. I... | |
What power cord do you use for your processor? This is a great cable for light work. I bought over 30 of these what a wonderful unshielded cable. Allow a week on a SS power amp or inline with a 120vac blower motor. You will love your 29-79.00 purchase. Shielding is up to you. I don’t use it un... | |

McIntosh MCD 201 CD/SACD player questions about viability of an older piece. Most of the time when you see regional failures or just random failures it has nothing to do with a bad product. It normally has to do with environmental issues. The lack of an AC cleaner and maintainer, poor maintenance practices and being WAY to... | |
K-horn won't fit, any other corner speakers recommended for a big room? Ohm is a good option. Only because I’ve used, owned or had most the old Klipsch, Altecs, Jensen, WE, JBL and Tannoy speakers, in this house, not other rooms MY rooms. Just because they make mention that they work best in a corner or what ever the ... | |

DIY speakers So I guess hammering every nail in your own house by hand is out to? I did. I did use a screw or two though.. As for MY speakers. They do look like a woodworkers project. I did a set of 600 pounders each with bronze Caps and bases. The sides ha... | |
DIY speakers Geez, I was talking hand made, not CnC for me. I've no need for that stuff. LOL I use a duplicating machine. If I don't have a sculped model to copy from I'm SOL.. Nothing fancy here. I use to hand carve the kitchen soup spoons.. I made the cabi... | |
Great speaker sounds terrible in my room? Good to hear you did decouple. The way they are made you did the best thing you could to actually make a music sub. REL is old tech with great paint. I've fixed quite a few VMPS and REL subs for music.. Boom Boom is easy. Audiophile is a little to... | |
DIY speakers Those cabinets are not going to be easy to make. All the rest is easy, VERY easy. Multiple pairs? Do you want to go into business? I'll tell you first hand, you better have more than a passive knowledge of wood working to make those cabinets.... | |
Bob Carver Going Direct. Good! I met him, 35 years ago.. I hope he make millions, Billions, TRILLIONS! Bob for Emperor. | |
Great speaker sounds terrible in my room? So you spiked the stands to the floor but isolate them from the speaker or coupled them to the speaker too. Your going to run a REL sub (coupled to the floor) with floor spiked speaker stands and coupled monitors? OK!! I’ll step aside on that on... | |

SST Ampzilla 2000 SE MB and Ambrosia Preamp I owned Mr. Bs, products. I saw him preform a few times too. They called him Pimp Daddy, All about the Jazz. His amps were as good as they come and could drive a very hard load without a strain. He taught me how to pull wire from a spool and that ... |
