TA-102 fo.Q Product from Japan "TRY These"
Just bought 2 packs. Don't know how many components 2 orders will take care of if doing iec, caps,  rca's, volume pot, power cord ends, crossover caps. Any advise if you only had 2 packs, total 4 sheets where to place it, and how big of a piece fo... 
TA-102 fo.Q Product from Japan "TRY These"
Thanks folkfreak, I have now drawn my conclusion of jkbtn but will keep it to myself. It's a shame to be so closed minded. Ozzy what seller did you use to get it in a week, when the ad claims it may take a month, I would like to use your seller, t... 
TA-102 fo.Q Product from Japan "TRY These"
Jkbtn would you do us a favor and list your system. It might shed light on why these type of tweeks have no results on your system. That is if you have ever tried them because you seem so knowledgeable on this subject. " never spend money on power...

How can anyone call anything snake oil till they buy it, put it in their system, then you can state your personal findings? I was bashed by people like jkbtn when I started a thread on the furutech NCF break in. I was told " no such thing as break... 
Beginner's Guide to Replace Cartridge on Music Hall MMF 2.2
I agree with both post above go slow take your time is key. I don't know how other people remove tonearm wires but I've had good luck with small thin needle nose plyers or tweezers. I put the plyers gently on tag not much pressure and with other h... 
Channel frequency range not balanced
If you think it may be the speaker, and you blew a tweeter it may be the resistor in the tweeter signal path. When you mentioned not balanced that is a trait of two resistors not matched if one is damaged. If one of the resistor is not producing t... 
Caps for crossover upgrade for Opera Grand Callas Loudspeakers
I think resistors are overlooked sometimes. Changing from a ceramic or Mills to a Path Audio resistor in the tweeter's signal path can be as important as a cap change sometimes. The Path Audio's are very smooth and detailed. $30 for a resistor is ...

Blown Mid Driver
I pulled a pair of paradigm Titans out of closet after 20 years, surrounds where gone. Ordered surround/glue kit, it's cheap. Never done it before, watched sellers how to video. I was surprised how easy of a fix it was. Worked like new.  
Pricing/selling Axiom 5.1 speaker set (v2 versions/10yrs old)
It was his first post, I've never heard it but hear it's good bang for buck, no need to insult his gear 812. Solaris might be better to try Audio Circle forum they may be more familiar with your speaker, good luck 
Threshold SA/1 monoblocks cap issues, perhaps?
Read thread a little better, I wouldn't just start throughing parts at it, that could get costly. 
Threshold SA/1 monoblocks cap issues, perhaps?
Could be a combination of getting a thump, on start up and interconnects, power cables, speaker wire crossed and talking to each other. I would go through process of elimination outside of amp. Have you left amp on for long period of time to see i... 
Threshold SA/1 monoblocks cap issues, perhaps?
I had a pair of McCormack DNA rev a monoblocks years ago that did exactly what you described. It all started when a speaker connection came lose and and was grounded and blew a fuse. I replaced fuse. From then on it made a loud thump when turned o... 
I need bass
Cheap old tweek that is not a subtle difference is to put morlite caulk rope on speaker basket. Put it on heavy on driver basket and tweeter, certainly if it is stamped metal basket even heavy basket will benefit. Also using it as a gasket for a t...
