| Shielding components from EMI/RFI... Help please Bryon,Did the Pangea AC-9s change much after "x" amount of time?Reason I ask is that I bought a few of them a year ago. I can't say anything bad about them but I found some cords I liked better. I just kept them because I'm too lazy to sell them. ... | |
| Good DVD Concert? Pink Floyd "Pulse".Part of this concert has them doing the complete DSOTM album from starting heartbeat to the finish. | |
| World's best Pre-amp for $10K and above? I always like to start my day with something funny. Now that I've found it, my day is ready to unfold.As my coffee is kicking in I had this thought:The thread topic is what I would call a "digital" post in that digital processing has its errors an... | |
| I-Mac for computer audio? I like your plan. The implementation....not sure, as in 40 ft for one thing.I'll tell you what I'm doing and see if it might work for you. Using my Wifi: I have a dock (Cambridge iD100) that routs the digital stream of one of my iDevices (Phone,Pa... | |
| Magnepan Service HORRIBLE??? Curious, Before you sent them to Mag, did you ask/they give a time estimate?I know, not much help now/here but for anybody dealing with anybody in the future, it's nice to know.I was ready to take one of my vintage tuners to a repair shop for some... | |

| A mystery for you tech gurus out there Sounds like it's your speaker. Use or borrow another set, even a cheap pair, to confirm. | |
| best vintage stereo receiver I think the Marantz 18 and 19 are two of the best (excellent tuners in both). Also, their 2270 has a that "smooth" sound you are looking for. | |
| Ceiling diffusion Most likely the first reflection point but experiment. | |
| Vintage Power Amp vs new age power amp Chaozhoi,I glanced at your other thread. I think there is a good chance that you may prefer the 300dc in this case (assuming it's operating correctly). I've been having fun putting together a vintage system in a spare room. I'm using a Marantz 16b... | |
| More power for better sound at low volumes? "If not, what is the secret to better low volume sound?"A good pure class A ss amp or a good SET amp would be half the equation. The other half would be the right speaker. Many multiple way speakers do not sound coherent until they are turned up a... | |
| Wireless router "contamination" of sound? It didn't in my experience. In my home office the router sits 3 to 6 feet from my stereo and haven't noticed anything amiss. | |
