| LOUDEST Concert and Tinnitus OzzFest 97. My ears rang for a week afterwards. I had a pit ticket so I was right by the stage for most of the day with the exception of Pantera. I let a buddy use my ticket when they were on and I was on the lawn dodging bodies from the crowd... | |
| How to trigger gear that doesn't have a trigger port (?) I have a Belkin unit as shown above but there should be others on the market with 3.5mm/ 1/8” input trigger ports to control one of its outlets. Something like this from Panamax or another from a cheaper mfr: | |
| Turntable channel imbalance I had this happen to me a while back and found that one of the conductors from the tonearm to the output terminal was failing, making that channel much quieter than the other. I installed a new wire and all was fine. | |
| Upgrade to McIntosh Your local dealer might let you demo them in your home before purchase. | |

| Klipsch La Scala --two types? Hopefully after 14 years they got it figured out. | |
| Sound is better when I stand up? I was talking about the electrical phase at different frequencies that are shared around the crossover region between the tweeters and woofers, not one speaker being wired out-of-phase to the amplifier. It’s a common issue with multi-driver speak... | |
| Sound is better when I stand up? It could be a phase issue between the drivers creating the issue. What speakers are they? | |
| And while I'm asking, has anyone modified Sony ss-cs5 speakers with a GR Research kit? In my opinion, spending about $500 on a $100 speaker to improve it is just too cost-prohibitive. I’d much rather buy a set of used $500-$600 speakers that when I need to sell them, I can get my money back. When you try to sell a set of those hig... | |
