| CES Alexis Park exhibitor question We carried our own equipment when we had a setup in Alexis Park with no problems but that was in 97. | |
| Velodyne DD: 10 or 12? Two 10s should be better than one 12. But when only going for one, I would go with the 12. You can always turn down the bass or Eq it to your room. Besides you may also add another 12 at some point or move to a larger room. | |
| Velodyne DD: 10 or 12? I would go with the best you can afford and that would be the 12. Even though it will only go 1hz lower and has the same size amp it has a larger driver and box which means it will have more output. In other words the amp will have to work less ha... | |
| Repairing MDF shelf finish Yes, I know what you mean about them only going one way. Don't they have holes that line up on the bottom? Can't these be re-drilled? | |
| Oddball question, hooking up REL Storm III Subwoof You can't use the record out because it is not controlled by volume. | |

| Best sounding SACD disc? John Lord/Beyond the Notes is beautiful if you like classical with a little jazz thrown in. It also has a cut with Frida from Abba on vocals. It's a little hard to find but worth it. The DVD is great too and is also hard to find and only available... | |
| Drying sand in the oven- anyone try it? I have done it but you need to do it in small quantities and stir it often at about 200F. You could go higher with temp I suppose. You won't burn it. | |
| AC polarisation. Does it matter? I should point out that some devices use polarized plugs for safty reasons and if reversed could cause shocks, fires or damaged equipment. One such episode happened to me with the afore mentioned cable box where an electrician had wired the recept... | |
| AC polarisation. Does it matter? (The AC polarity could also be off on the wall plug. No reason to believe the crew that installed the outlets in the house got all the wires put on the plugs the right way. They work very fast.)They had better get the polarity correct or it can ca... | |
