| Help- 60 cycle Hum - ground loop problem If you dont currently have any type of power conditioner or surge control in your system then you could use the monster HTS 1000 or higher power centres. These will break the loop and can be found on here or ebay for less than $100. I tried the mo... | |
| How do you record FM radio broadcasts to cd / Mp3? Id you computer has line in, then use something like eac (exact audio copy) to record .wav files. Then use lame to process the files to .mp3. I do this all the time for my dad and the results are not too bad. | |
| Paradigm or Energy????? You may want to try Axiomaudio.com, I have heard their speakers (and own the M40ti) and they seem to represent a good value for the money. They are closing out some of their M80ti models rights now for about $800 in the axiomstore, and they have a... | |
| Creek 5350 "U" bars I bought 4 pairs of 6" interconnects off ubid a while ago, they are nicely made by orion. I used them for this with my Onkyo and it seemed to be a little smoother sounding (of course that was compared to 10 year old oxidized u bars)Patrick | |
| Satellite or CATV? In rochester NY the time warner seems pretty good for the price, I can get a PVR and HD receivers (hbo and show) for about $60-80 a month. THe local channels are still analog though. The picture is the same as satellite(have both) for the rest of ... | |
| Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Sound Card I have only heard that it plays dvd-a files, but you may want to take a look at something like the Stereolink 1200 which is a external sound card USB that is supposed to be pretty good and only $129.Patrick | |
| Budget system not up to expectations... I can tell you the integrated's that I was looking at, but my speakers were not as power hungry as the bw. Someone just posted a used Rotel for $425, The audio refinement complete (60w per channel but very nice and musical sounding), The roksan ca... | |
| Budget system not up to expectations... I had a slightly similiar system with older bw speakers and onkyo sv90 125w receiver (MIT T2 IC's $50 each, Audioquest slate speaker cable $91). The onkyo blew away my denon 2801 that I bought. While looking at your system, your speaker cables sou... | |
| SACD - Just Starting Out If you like Creedence Clearwater Revival, Kosmo's Factory and Willie and the Poor boys have just been released by acoustic sounds. Remastering done by steve hoffman. | |
| Reduce noice from cable hookup in HT system? You could do a search on ground loop for a cheap radio shack solution, but I don't know how the digital cable would react to that. I use the monster cable power conditioners such as the HTS1000/2000/2500 and have had very good luck with them. I ha... | |
| Cocktail of choice when listening to fav music? Any good beer, usually Bohemia or French/Belgian/German beer. And on the rarest of occasions when I can find it some Goldstar or Maccabee from Israel. | |
| need opinions on getting out of HT into 2 channel Thinks for the suggestions, as I have moved to a new town my local dealer carries some of the products that have been mentioned, so I will do some more studying. Will post back what I end with.Thanks,Patrick | |
| need opinions on getting out of HT into 2 channel I would like to do it in stages, I would prefer to keep the axiom speakers as I just bought them a couple of weeks ago and am happy with their performance for now. At some point I probably will own Vandersteen speakers, I am from the Hanford/Lemoo... | |
| MIT Love 'em or Hate 'em I love the sound of them, the sound takes a while to gorw on you. When they synergize with the components in your system the sound has a certain something to it that sets my toe's a tappin.Patrick | |
| Who Are You? or should I say "who were you?" Well, I used to be the world traveling (lived in europe and the middle east for most of my most impressionable years) MTV watching cyberpunk intellectual genie wearing ex-patriot photographer who was listening to my discman or car stereo 24/7 when... |
