| Which cables go with what????? Since we now have two cable manufacturers touting the same theories, how about some background on these theories, what goes into making a "neutral" cable and how these neutral cables measure ??? Sean> | |
| Which cables go with what????? I disagree 100%. If you terminate most any cable with the nominal load and source impedances that it would see during normal operation, most all of them will pass signals with phenomenally high levels of linearity. It is the impedances of each com... | |
| Who will survive? One last table til I die. I agree with Herman. Other than the basic "wear & tear" items such as belts, bearings, springs, etc.. you might want to think about purchasing another arm and / or the parts to repair the arm that you have. Depending on which way that you go, ... | |
| A Shocking Experience If you've got air conditioning / dehumidifiers running, it is possible that your room lacks the humidity required to "dampen" static electricity charges from building up. While it is always a good idea to make and break all the connections on your... | |
| Nitty Gritty part replacement You can contact Nitty Gritty directly or give Bes a call at Music Direct. Either of them will be glad to give you a hand. Sean> | |
| Am I wrong? As Tabu mentioned Bryston and many people know that i am a critic of some of their products, i have to be honest. I sent in a unit for repair to them quite a while back. After they had it for about two weeks, i called to see what was going on with... | |
| Ohm Walsh speakers; Anyone have any experience Huff came to the CAS last year and did a demo with his gear. Needless to say, i was thrilled at the chance to both hear and see these speakers in action. Unfortunately, he did not bring the DDD based system but instead brought some speakers of rel... | |
| Does removing the plastic covers on caps help? I agree that removing the plastic will change the sound of the device. The question is, are you willing to take the chance of altering the sonics of a device that you already like and paid good money for ? Who is to say that you will like the chan... | |
| 200 Watt versus 300 to 400 Watt Amplifier Comps Matt: I don't know if you are bridging the amps or running them in vertical bi-amp mode. When you bridge an amp, it effectively sees half the impedance of the speaker. As such, an 8 ohm speaker looks like a 4 ohm load. As such, an amp that runs in... | |
| Bryston 4B gets HOT. Should I leave it on? vetteman: What are you doing, mono-blocking with one amp feeding the treble ( or something similar ) ? Sean> | |
| Ohm Walsh speakers; Anyone have any experience I would love to be able to listen to the German Physiks Walsh "Bending Wave Transducer" ( Dick's Dipole Driver or DDD as they call it ). I am curious as to if the driver uses some type of internal damping material inside the driver to damp the tit... | |
| 200 Watt versus 300 to 400 Watt Amplifier Comps Nrchy: driving low impedance low sensitivity loads, 200 wpc @ 8 ohms is a drop in the bucket. Since most amps do not "double down", you might end up with about 350 wpc @ 4 and 450 - 500 wpc @ 2 ohms in many cases. I do have amps that double down a... | |
| Question about seperate tuners Slappy: a good tuner will walk circles around the tuner in most any current production AV receiver. Yes, the Sunfire Cinema Grand Pre-Pro has a built in tuner. It works but is not anything to write home about compared to a high quality separate tu... | |
| tube/resistor failure Tubes are just like any other electrical component i.e. they can fail in three different ways. The first one is to short out i.e. act as a piece of wire rather than some type of component. This will typically cause an increase in current to flow, ... | |
| Mat Material............... My initial experience with a Ringmat was very poor. Come to find out that the better the isolation of the turntable itself, the less "synergistic" the Ringmat will be with it. As such, i would not recommend the use of a Ringmat ( or similar device... |
