| Any 5.1 processor with integrated 3 ch amp Bd,I've owned the B&K AVR202 on 3 different occassions (I think I gave it a fair shot!). For the purposes of an add-on HT processor/center channel/surround amp, I'd still recommend one of the more cost effective HT receivers from one of the bi... | |
| Any 5.1 processor with integrated 3 ch amp There actually were a couple of units with processor and 3 channels of amplification that were available several years ago. I can't recall the brand names. However, they were DD5.1 and pro-logic and did not support DTS or pro-logic II. So, for me,... | |
| Any 5.1 processor with integrated 3 ch amp Any 5.1, 6.1 or 7.1 channel HT receiver that has pre-outs for (at least) the front L&R or all channels, will work. I've used a similar setup on numerous occassions, letting the HT receiver provide all of the processing and powering the center ... | |
| Compressed Air Cleaning of Electronics N,Many small handheld vacuum cleaners can have the hose connected on the "exhaust" end, thereby creating a nice "blower". I often use mine this way.You could also blow up a large baloon with a straw in the end. Pinch the straw to stop airflow, rel... | |
| Whose got best class D at this point? Guys,The "shootout" mentioned by TRACER is complete and the results are out on the Stereomojo site. As mentioned earlier, there are some major players missing from the shootout, however, the results might surprise a lot of people.BTW, I've been us... | |
| Digital Volume Control any good ? Eljaro,Many of the CD players that employ built-in "variable" volume control actually implement it in the analog domain. As stated in the Accuphase verviage, some do it in the digital domain.I've owned many different CD players with built-in volum... | |
| Cincinnati, OH, any audiophiles? Stuben,Absolutely interested. I'd like to hear the amps you are building. What kind of speakers do you use with those?Currently I have a nice 2A3 tube amp built by a custom builder here in Cincinnati, a pair of Bottlehead 2A3 mono-blocks that I as... | |
| New music, what, why etc... I thought you meant "new music", not newly released versions of the same ol music (admittely good, but still old).Sorry, I got nothin' for ya. Feel free to ignore me and get back to the thread.....Oh, I do have one recommendation. It's not new and... | |
| Back in the saddle again Pehare,Why yes, yes i do......has something to do with tulips, I believe...TIC | |
| Regardless of how much you've spent... Sometimes love it, sometimes hate it, most times like it!Like many of the above, I drift in and out of involvement with audio.Interestingly, as my financial ability increases, my desire to spend the money on audio decreases! Over the last few year... | |
| Passive Pre Recommendations As Bob said, a pair of inexpensive Rothwell in-line attenuators will remedy your "too much gain" issue and provide much more usable range on your volume control. This is a quick, easy and inexpensive solution.Enjoy,TIC | |
| Preamp with lots of outputs? Hi Doug,Thanks for clearing up the actual need. Although you did specifically ask for "outputs", in the context of most people's systems (most people don't have 11 recording devices in their rig), that didn't make sense, hence the questions. Now t... | |
| Whose got best class D at this point? Tracer,Thanks for the link. That should prove to be an interesting shootout.TIC | |
| Whose got best class D at this point? Hey Tim,Of course you are correct that you must be cautious when taking advice from folks on a manufacturers forum, like the RWA or CI forums at Audiocircle. What I was trying to say is that there is a high concentration of actual owners of those ... | |
| Whose got best class D at this point? Chazzbo,I've only heard a few and they were of the lesser expensive models, but they are promising. Here's what I would do if I were in the market for a new class-D amp. I would verify which models sell quickly on AudiogoN and wait for one at a fa... |
