| Infinity ServoStatik - beginning high channel repairs Thanks for the reply. It seems like more of a power supply kind of problem if I had to guess. | |
| Infinity ServoStatik - need help with subwoofer I fixed the hum by plugging both amps into the same power strip. The speakers sound great, and I'm partying like it's 1969!Thanks again. | |
| Infinity ServoStatik - need help with subwoofer Yes, everything is working now! It sounds great so far. Thanks for the suggestions.I plugged them into my Kappa 9 setup, which is a Parasound HCA-3500 for mid and Nakamichi PA-7 for high end. I'm thinking that a Parasound 806 or 855 would be ju... | |
| Infinity ServoStatik - need help with subwoofer Thanks for the suggestions!After running through some of your tests, it looks like the main problem was 50 years of oxidation on the pins connecting amp and subwoofer. I used a file to scratch all of the pins and after that then I was able to meas... | |
| Infinity ServoStatik - need help with subwoofer I took the crossover/amp apart and it looks clean enough... nothing obviously broken. So I guess it is time to look at the subwoofer.I have never tested amps like this, so let me ask what is probably a dumb question: should I be able to do a volta... | |
| Help power pair of Infinity Kappa 9's please Oops I was posting on two different threads. This must be a popular topic!The bottom line: I figured out how passive bi-amping works and it sounds wonderful.The other important piece of information I figured out: the best place to go for all your... | |
| Infinity Kappa 9's sound terrible...HELP This is my last comment on this thread. Yes indeed, it is as easy as I suggested in the last post. Another hot tip: these days the best place to go for your RCA cable needs is a car audio shop. They still use crossovers and RCA cables everywhere!F... | |
| Infinity Kappa 9's sound terrible...HELP After doing even more reading -- it looks like it is common for people to just use a y cable from each channel of the pre-amp to plug into both amps. This may explain why most threads didn't mention adding a crossover specifically.Is it really th... | |
| Infinity Kappa 9's sound terrible...HELP After doing some reading -- it looks like I should be able to find the crossover I need for biamping at just about any car audio shop. Is this the case? | |
| Infinity Kappa 9's sound terrible...HELP Hmm, I posted something yesterday plus a response and an edit but it isn't here today... weird.I'll repost my quick question... I'm a new 9Kappa owner! After 30 years of window shopping someone in my zip code had an estate sale and I ended up wit... | |
| Help power pair of Infinity Kappa 9's please Quick update: what makes the sound even worse than mismatched "Extended" modes is when the bottom woofer is wired backward. I re-did the wiring on both speakers and it sounds infinity-ly better now. This seems to be a common problem on these speak... | |
| Help power pair of Infinity Kappa 9's please Excellent thread! Another new 9Kappa owner here. I'm mainly trying to figure out what subwoofer to get and what preamps/crossovers I will need to try bi-amping. But I'll tell the longer story here just for fun:I always loved the look of the Kap... | |

| Arm/cartridge weight measurement Thanks for the excellent suggestions. I think I am still getting some distortion on the really heavy bass, though theonly album that I also have on CD hasn't had the best careover the years.I picked up a couple of records that I have on CD. Jeff B... |
