| How does one get off the merry-go-round? Never get on it in the first place. I did a lot of listening before i bought and then bought what i felt was a good well balanced system that smoked a few much more expensive system. I then faced the realities of the room the system was destine to... | |
| How's to ground for the dedicated line? They way i understand it is by code you need to have a common ground for the entire system at the main box. That being said some people use a seperate star ground direct from the outlets, which i think i get but not enough to discuss it..I'll leav... | |
| Guitar beginner question The best piece of advice given so far is go out and play a bunch of guitars to: A) get a feel for what type of finger board scale you like. Fenders are way different in feel than gibson types. It took about 15 years of playing before i figured out... | |
| Switchable Tetrode - Triode please explain The tetrode tends to give the music a more forceful, forward presentation. It also has more dynamics and deeper bass in Tetrode. Triode, on the other hand, may be a bit more laid back and at first may not seem as seem as appealing. Give it a chanc... | |
| SET, Tetrode, Pentode ????? As i understand it the single ended amps tend to be the low wattage midget amps that are used with the ultra high efficiency speakers. Never heard one but i hear the midrange is so killer it makes up for some weaknesses at the other extreams. Chec... | |
| Rap music on high-end speakers If the question is real and not just bait (haven't had time to read the responces) try a pair of EV s-15 three way. there is a high end model and the basic. Use them for mids and highs along with subs for pa mains and they stomp. don't need the su... | |
| Has anyone compared the HT Truth-Links to AZ WOWs i have used the pro silways with success between my pre amp and amp and with the phono pre amp but it was not good with the CD. In that position there was more detail but a harsh glare to go with it and a lack of midrange body. I found them to be ... | |
| I need shipping advice I've had both UPS and Fed-ex destroy things and they tended to be heavy amps in 2 out of 3 tries. I recieved a set of large floor standing speakers by using a trucking company that had room on a normal run. the price was reasonable, they did cod, ... | |
| Has anyone used Echo Busters? If you feel handy there are instructions for DIY versions of the asc traps, corner busters and room lens on audio asylum. Now that winter has showed up i'll be addressing a set of lenses for my room. too cheap not to try. | |
| Most Analogue-like sounding Player 2k or less i agree with maxgain on the ARC cd-2, it will get you closer to analog. sounded way better that the Linn Genki to me though you need to find it used to stay under $2k. | |
| what speakers do the best "disappearing act"?? It's all in the setup unless the source is hard right/hard left mix. My dunlavy's are almost impossible to pinpoint even when you are trying. I've also had and an old pair of Klipsh Cornwalls that would dissapear entirely | |
| VTL Service ?? I've had to call them on two ocassions for tech questions, once to deal with a strange hum i couldn't chase down and once to deal with the aftermath of a near miss by lightning. both times they were very responsive, Bea Lam went out of her way on ... | |
| Analysis Plus vs. Harmonic Technology I use the HT pro-9 speker cables and am totally satisfied. I use both the pro silway II and truthlinks. The silways worked well for me between the amp and pre (VTL) and in the phono side of the system (where they still reside) but they produced a ... | |
| Best blues guitarist, Clapton or Green It's good to see that as this thread progressed some real players got mentioned. At first the SRV, Buddy Guy thing (and all the vaunabees out there..man i'm sick of the texas shuffle), had me agreeing with sdcambell that ya'll need to get out more... | |
| Hiss, hum bad for speakers? hiss/high hat, hum/ bass note or synth, whine/flute. I doubt the speakers know the difference. DO you have one of those dimmer equiped halogen lights on the circut? they will make all kinds of racket through the lines. |
