| Surge protector Yes, the electrician was here Tuesday. | |
| Surge protector DISASTER! I had the new amps for the subwoofer installed yesterday with the plugs in the wall socket, and things sounded great. I then plugged one of them into the Furman. The light on the amp flickered and then went out. I plugged it back into ... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Well, I had the amps replaced, and when the technician was through he noticed the polarity of the speaker cables was the conventional red to red and black to black formation. It just so happens that my Conrad-Johnson preamp is phase inverting, whi... | |
| Audiophilism is a hobby @ghdprentice I’m just curious. How do you define “rhythm and pace?” | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados I just listened to the Hogwood version of the Mozart Requiem on my compromised speakers. I hadn’t heard this version previously. From what I could tell, it’s a really fine reading. The “Lacrymosa” is a bit shocking in its original version, quite d... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Yes, I have headphones, but I still prefer the speakers. But, you’re right, without the subwoofers the sound is definitely off, lacks body.. ‘Hopefully the amps will arrive today. | |

| Classical Music for Aficionados @rcprince Yes, it’s amazing how our taste can change like that. @mahler123 Ristenpart’s interpretations have managed to survive the HIP movement. Just a superb musician. Those Nonesuch LP’s are wonderful | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados @curiousjim Thanks for reviving this dormant thread. I agree, Hogwood is as good as any. | |
| Surge protector Spending my time listening to chamber music and other music not requiring a subwoofer. Maybe I’ll get to know the Beethoven string quartets better. | |
| Surge protector @immatthewj Probably the one that’s included. | |
| Surge protector I’ve ordered the Furman PST-8 unit to protect my new subwoofers once they are installed. |
