| Help with purchase of power conditioner Psyched out for a capacitor? No. It's the "switch" that doesn't switch anything in or out, and is just a bundle of wires running in parallel...Like shampoos and cosmetics, the case is the most expensive component!Isolation transformers will get yo... | |
| Help with purchase of power conditioner Sugarbrie is almost right on the money. Look in e-Bay for "true isolation power conditioner"; Seller is David Riddle. It is a used Power Var 400W isolation transformer you can buy for $55. Davis has lots of those. I have one, so does Sedond and Au... | |
| Similar site in Europe. Ask in www.zero-distortion.com/ it's Yugoslav. Please post this in misc audio next time. | |
| Opinions on the Bose 901 Keep bashing the 901's... | |
| Opinions on the Bose 901 This is not a Bose bashing thread--I'm serious about what I've posted. What Sean proposes does make a lot of sense. I have read about it elsewhere. Bolting a JBL compression horn on top and adding a sub would yield both a very nice HT and backgrou... | |
| Opinions on the Bose 901 Well Sean, I agree Bose *is* part of the learning curve. Although I never owned Bose, my high school had one hell of a Bose fever. There was this girl in my HS class whose father was the Bose factory manager (they were made in PR at the time). Nee... | |
| Opinions on the Bose 901 Jvia, that's where the spatial control comes into play! And that's why I'm excited they're series IV. The new ones don't have that option...I can always try by using a corner and trying the gypsum wall trick there...there would be more sound refle... | |
| Opinions on the Bose 901 Thanks a lot, Jvia. I concur with you that 901's could be very involving for HT. Also, the Series IV are the prettiest of all. One of my speakers and front grille is somewhat discolored from the sun--I wonder if the cloth could be obtained through... | |
| Opinions on the Bose 901 Art, I think you don't get it about the 901's. This is what Bose has posted about the 901's on their website: "Only live sounds better." Anyone seconds that? Show of hands, please!If they only knew I don't want to use them for music listening! Jus... | |
| Opinions on the Bose 901 Did anyone here ever get to play with the "spatial control" slider in a Bose receiver? Seems to me that no one else knows...Someone in AA posted that he recones them for $150. Not bad. | |
| Good phono amp, low noise, not too expencive? Charles:If you want a belt drive, check out the factory refurbished SOTAs. I would go for a Sapphire. If you search the posts, you'll find out that Sean is very fond of SOTAS--and so am I. They are made here in Chicago Metro. They have an unbeliev... | |
| Am I assuming too Much? For all those interested, Zero Distortion is a Yugoslav audio e-zine. It started a couple of months ago and I was invited to join. It's got a few but really good audio guys from Europe, USA and Canada (including yours truly). Most of us are ex TNT... | |
| Am I assuming too Much? Careful Artemus...your Dual might be better than the Music Hall. If you post this in Zero Distortion I am confident you will get a straight answer from an expert on Dual TTs (Dejan Veselinovic). | |
| Good phono amp, low noise, not too expencive? Charles, I bought the Monolithic without ever listening to it. I had a phone conversation with Greg--he's such a terrible salesman! But he spoke with enthusiasm and technical mastery of how his unit was designed and works. Kind of like an inexpens... | |
| Good phono amp, low noise, not too expencive? Monolithic Sound phono stage w/ outboard Dual Mono Power Supply will make the Black Cube and the Blue Circle beg for mercy. The upgraded dual mono power supply has a three stage noise filter built-in. Dusty Vawter and Greg know what they're doing.... |
