| Single driver speakers. Are they worth considering ? For clarity: make that last sentence, "Compression (whether dynamic or power) is another subject altogether; again, not caused by the crossover, but- by overdriven/overloaded drivers." | |
| Replacing magnepan binding post I’ve seen Magnepan’s MG 3.6 / 3.6/R (with screws holding the terminal plate), but- have never seen, or heard of, a model 3.6a. Can’t help you there! Have the socks (perhaps) been replaced and the terminal plate, partially covered? Sp... | |
| Single driver speakers. Are they worth considering ? @dentdog- Intermodulation distortion is caused by drivers, trying to reproduce too many frequencies, at one time. NOT, "...due to crossovers." Dynamic/power compression is another subject altogether; again, not caused by the crossover... | |
| Replacing magnepan binding post I’ve owned their SMGa, MMG, MG12/qr, 1.7i models (all great for home theater) and thought I’d seen everything else Magnepan manufactured, over the past forty-some years. All had small, round head, Phillips wood screws; holding the terminal plat... | |

| Rogue Cronus Magnum Dies Help Sorry, for the oversight. Hope you find your issue. | |
| Rogue Cronus Magnum Dies Help You mentioned being able to get the remote working ("I came down 30 minutes later and tried and all of a sudden the remote worked. Very odd."). If the Cronus was completely, "dead": how do you know the remote was working? Just curious, ... | |
| Rogue Cronus Magnum Dies Help Since you own a multimeter: check the voltages at the bridge rectifier. (no AC in = transformer / no DC out = rectifier) Don’t take anything for granted, regarding the power switch, solder joints (etc), ahead of the tranny. ... | |
| Best type of metal for turntable platform? @best-groove: A plinth could be more a work of art*, made of that. If cleverly equipped with an air bladder; very efficacious against footfalls. * Some Panzerholtz lamina... | |
| If you had a dozen pairs of classic vintage ubes in your closet Why would I have tubes, that I've never heard? Regardless of how satisfied I am with whatever tubes are currently in use; I know there's always room for improvement. The only thing I've never been able to resist is temptation (especial... | |
