| MICHI 8 Amp(s) Yes, evidently one did. Visually you cannot detect anything amiss. The problem must be internal. When you look at these cables the positive (Red) is at one end and directly at the other end is the ground wire (black). So, these cables internally... | |
| MICHI 8 Amp(s) The other day I had a speaker cable short and instead of the Michi 8 blowing the fuse, the Michi 8 shut down. After the culprit was removed the unit came back online. Marvelous protection circuitry! ozzy | |

| A $250 Power Conditioner? questforhifi, I’m not knowledgeable how it is constructed, but it DOES improve the audio and video. And isn’t that what this forum and hobby is about, to share info? You probably should actually try one and then comment. There is a money back gu... | |
| Eliminated my preamp with amazing results When I purchased my Lumin X1 a few years back, I started going direct to my mono blocks. And I totally agree, once I experienced music without the preamp in the chain I could never go back. ozzy | |

| Speaker Spikes - Working Principle I don't know if this qualifies as a speaker spike, but I found that using the ISO- Acoustics Gaia 1's under my Clarisys speakers to be a big improvement over just using the aluminum feet. I also added the carpet spikes under the Gaia's and found t... | |
| MICHI 8 Amp(s) Thanks! You know if the fans have come on, I have never heard them. The unit runs pretty cool to the touch. One of the front screen menus on the unit is a temperature reading. Once it warms up and has played for some time the temperature reaches ... | |
| MICHI 8 Amp(s) First off, Happy New Year to all! It’s funny, about 10+ years ago I thought I should start downsizing the weight of my equipment for possible future age-related limitations. I started using tube amp(s) and monitor/sub speakers. Fast forward to t... | |
| Connecting a subwoofer You could use something like this. ozzy SP-2SX | Jensen Transformers (jensen-transformers.com) | |
| MICHI 8 Amp(s) Has anyone else tried these amps? It is truly surprising. Especially for the cost. ozzy | |
| Aardvark Ethernet noise isolator Well, I just got the iFi ethernet filter. First impression, it does seem to do more than the much more expensive Aardvark, but not sure if it is a keeper. Right now, it sounds like the music moved up a bit in frequency response. There does seem ... | |
