| Subwoofer connection XLR vs RCA No need to change, you will get no benefit from the XLR. | |
| Need replacement lights for power amp meters I like no lights. Much better for listening in the dark. | |
| Mid range planar magnetics Infinity used to. | |
| Bi-Amping: How can I determine relative output? @erik_squires Oh shoot I was thinking about the way I do it with an outboard crossover. You are right. | |
| Bi-Amping: How can I determine relative output? @erik_squires Voltage out does not equal SPL out. You may get the amps giving the same output but differences in driver efficiency will make the SPL different. | |
| Help. System sounds thin and bright or harsh I'm going to say the Harbeths are just not cutting it. Small two way speakers seldom do (unless you like a lean sound). You need a bigger 3 way to get the warm midrange you are looking for. | |
| Class D with high efficiency speakers I would certainly try it. It might make for a good match. | |
| Bi-Amping: How can I determine relative output? One of the amps will need to have a gain adjustment. You'll need a sound level meter of some kind if you want an accurate adjustment. I tune my woofer towers by ear but YMMV. | |

| Marantz CD Player Model CD-63SE and Marantz AV Stereo Receiver Model SR-63 Sorry but the answer is not much, garage sale value. | |
| Audiphile Press: Am I jaded, experienced, or has it declined? The game changed. Old publications were more active in a consumer reports sort of style. That has changed to a full on equipment promotion supplement. | |
| Amps It's a waste of lifespan and energy. | |
| Whats the ultimate goal with your pre amp ? There are no top end systems that don't use a quality preamp. It's very important. | |
| can you please help me around how to use my first tube amp? Why would the person need a multi meter when the amp comes with one built into the chassis and has markings for optimal bias? For his future amp purchase? Everybody needs a multimeter, unless you think a light bulb change needs a service call ... | |
| Coaxials - Reality vs. Experience? @russ69 Did you really start this thread with a "times moved on" argument against coaxials and then admitted to using Ohm Walsh’s, a design from the early 1970s? lol I was really thinking about my Dad's coax driver from the mid sixties 😁....I'm... |
