| Peanuts from hell Two boxes, with strategically placed foam rubber strips(glued) to act as a suspension between the boxes(spacing at least a couple inches all around the inner box). The item wrapped in bubble wrap. That's only if you care enough, and don't have the... | |
| Problem when volume turn up Turn it up a "1/4" from what level? You say it works fine at "moderate volume". I'd have to agree to the amp shutting down via a protection circuit. If what you are experiencing is not a result of you trying to get higher SPLs than the system is c... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment Hey Craig- Did you have any idea that posting your very successful experiments and results would bring these semi-deaf, nay-saying, untesting but highly opinionated termites out of the woodwork? =8^) | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment BTW: The Rain-X concept is(filling and polishing micro-scratches) to make glass too slick for water to adhere, and has worked wonderfully for me. I had my wipers go out on a Camaro, in a thunderstorm, some years back. Found an auto parts store, bo... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment The problems that polishes and green markers address has nothing to do with "jitter". LASERs can and will mistrack/misread, if skewed by scratches(microscopic or otherwise)on the disc's surface, or if picking up stray/reflected LASER light. Treate... | |
| Installed Wrong Tube 12AX& instead of 12 AT7 Not any more than a bad light bulb hurts your house wiring. | |
| Where to get replacement Rubber Feet? Your local Ace Hardware store. | |
| Installed Wrong Tube 12AX& instead of 12 AT7 Relax! As stated: No harm done. =8^) | |
| Cary SLI-80 Signature and EL34s Akanrg- Here's the scoop on Winged 'C' tubes: (http://www.tubesandmore.com/scripts/foxweb.dll/catalog@d:/dfs/elevclients/cemirror/ELEVATOR.FXP?PAGE=SUBCAT&SEARCH_TREE01=01_TUBES&SEARCH_TREE02=00003_WINGEDC) It's good to know what iteration... | |
| what do you know" That way those of us that have ears(and/or are trained in "critcal listening") can totally ignore what we know to be horseshite. | |
| ARC VT-200 Cooling Fan Noisy, nit picking? Two fans will lower the speed of each, but then you'll have the noise of two fans beating the air(no benefit). Place a 560 ohm, 10 watt power resistor in series with the fan, and it will reduce the speed significantly. Personally- I would remove t... | |
| Another Cable Burn-in Question NEVER, EVER stop experimenting! Happy listening!! =8^) | |
| mono versus stereo ampflication These thoughts have been mentioned, but- I'd like to agree: Having two separate power supplies, and being able to place the amps much closer to the speakers(shorter cables) are two big advantages to using mono blocks. One would only need balanced ... | |
| what do you know" Your statement, " I failed Bad" is the first accurate thing that you've said so far. Either you're deaf, the system was incapable of resolving the differences in cables or that EE degree has caused your brain to harden up(happens all the time). Of... | |
| Room Acoustics question: It goes back father than that. Nature has been using the "Golden Ratio" to design things pleasing to the eye, and to function their best for aeons. ie: As mentioned, the Nautilus shell, what we consider the most beautiful faces, the human hand's b... |
