| Suggestions on improvement You won't get decent hearing aids for anywhere near $1,000.00. The Schiit Loki may be an option. I wear my hearing aids when I listen and select the music program. | |
| Affordable Grounding Thanks for the excellent overview Mike. | |
| A nightmare regarding streaming? I have used Soundiiz to move playlists between Amazon Music and Qubuzz. It worked great and was very easy. | |
| question about Balanced signals. What is the purpose of a balanced circuit. If you want it to reduce hum and noise you need a differential input. The signal does not have to be differential but both legs need to have the same output impedance to ground. The input must have the sa... | |
| Hearing aid question I have been wearing hearing aids for a little over 4 years. My hearing changed and I updated my aids a couple of months ago. I got Phonak's top of the line hearing aids both times. The music setting gives me a more open sound than the other settin... | |
| Unplugging power cords from amps/ pre amps I am using a SurgeX SEQ for sequencing and surge protection. I'm not sure how it affects the sound yet. but I don't worry about lightning as much now. | |
| Requesting opinions about 4 specific amplifiers You listen at about the same levels as I do but I don't consider it loud. Church is that loud. | |
| Surge protector I have been using a SurgeX SEQ for surge protection and sequencing. So far no problems. | |
| Preamp 47K load. Cartridge needs 330 ohm If you like Jensen the JT-347-AXTÂ transformer is 1:12. | |
| Good small/single outlet power conditioner for preamp. Use the cheater plug to see if that is the problem. If that cures the problem find the reason for the ground loop and fix it. By using a cheater plug you are lifting the safety ground. | |
| Equalizer to compensate for hearing loss - Any success stories? My hearing is similar to yours. I have been using the audio app in my hearing aids and am quite happy with it. I have tried Equalizer APO with digital sources in my computer when not wearing hearing aids and it is OK but not as good as my hearing ... | |
| Dedicated 20 amp circuit. 10/2 or 10/3? Keeping all the audio on one leg helps reduce ground loops. Your system is probably not going to draw enough current to need both legs. | |
| REL Hum. Stumped Please don't use a cheater plug for extended use. The work as a trouble shooting tool but are dangerous if there is a short. They are designed to provide a ground on an old two wire house not lift the ground of a three wire system. | |
| Question for Lyngdorf owners You can buy XLR to RCA cables. They will either have pin 3 connected to pin 1 or pin 3 will be open. If you connect pin 2 + and pin 3 - to the RCA center oin the result is 0 output. | |
| The Audiophile Upgrade Easiest to Ignore I've been wearing hearing aids for almost 3 years now. They are expensive Phonak models. Are the perfect NO. Are they better than not using them yes. You have to realize that most hearing aids are designed to improve hearing speech. Mine have sev... |
