| External hard drives and sound quality All of a sudden in the last week the sound in my headset has gone to hell. Used to be absolutely great! Now, a lot of clipping or static around the edges of the music. Could my External HD be acting up or could it be the Toslink "Out" from the Mac... | |
| Help with PowerMac G5 Leopard and iTunes Keep in mind that your USB and Toslink "outs" from the Mac are only as good as the receiving piece of equipment. I have been using a Pop Pulse USB >SPDIF converter and the resolution (as indicated in the Midi Setup) is pretty poor - only becaus... | |
| Loud hum in one channel Sure sounds like the phono amp in the pre-amp is indeed the culprit. That would need to be checked out by a professional but I would sure start with that. If it was the pre amp itself you would probably be getting hum/noise out of any setting (CD,... | |
| maggie 1.6qr My room is quite a bit different and employs the 20.1s so I am not well qualified to comment on your situation other than to say that I agree with Magfan that it seems to be best with the tweeters on the outside. I tried it both ways and prefered ... | |
| I'm in the Dark - Any Internet FM Radio Tuners? jcbach: I listen to Sky FM via a Mac Pro then into the main system via the regular hook-ups. IMO the quality is excellent. Next step is to become a subscriber (it is really cheap). Once you are a subscriber they broadcast to you without commercial... | |
| Loud hum in one channel Hurricane: You indicated that the noise is present even when the TT is off with just the ground wire attached (not the ICs). When you hear that hum is the preamp set to TT? What if the preamp is set on "CD" for example. With the TT off and the CD ... | |
| Loud hum in one channel Do you get the same hum when operating another piece of equipment like a transport? If so, it may be your processor. I had the same problem and it turned out to be a grounding issue. I had to plug the left channel mono amp into a three to two plug... | |
| is a center channel really necessary?? My center channel sits idle most of the time. Once the placement of the Maggie 20.1s was perfected the center channel became just extra baggage to me. When sitting in the sweet spot it sounds like the center channel is on anyway due to the sharp d... | |
| Amp Power Conditioner or not? My Krell Monos are plugged directly into dedicated circuits. Sounds fine to me. Everything else is plugged into an APC Power Conditioner/Battery Back-up. | |
| Mye stands and Maggie 3.6 Speakers I built black boxes from 1X4 wood that were screwed/glued and sized for two short stacks of floor tiles and made to fit across the two horizontal braces in back. The tiles fit tightly and gave me 100 lbs of back weight to stabilize everything. The... | |
| cheap usb converter making awful pops, help please I agree with 4est. The reviews are solid - mine is on order. | |
| M2Tech HiFace - using it? Like it? Thanks Tgrisham - glad to hear you are having success with the HiFace. I really am tempted to go ahead with it. Like you, my music is stored on an external HD (2 TB mirrored) so I am not clear on just how something like Pure Music would work but f... | |
| M2Tech HiFace - using it? Like it? Thanks Coolhand! I checked out the Pure Music website and if I am understanding it correctly this program stores the music and plays it back while the "administrative" tasks are left to iTunes. My question/concern would be this: My music is stored... | |
| Cable Elevators - What do you use? Hevac1: That was a good buy - what better isolators are there??? | |
| Cable Elevators - What do you use? Elizabeth - you are sick!! . . . but I laughed anyway! |
