| Cigarette Smoke Harm Solid State Unit ? Well Dekay, you might not have your electronics for long, but at least you wouldn't have to go far for some good "eats" while you're listening : ) Sean> | |
| Lowther classic audio My experience with them is VERY limited. They are highly efficient as you probably know. They produce very little deep bass, if any at all. For that reason, a horn design probably would work slightly better than a ported design. The horn would hel... | |
| Ringing heatsinks Michael Green of MGD fame spoke to me about this during a conversation. While he wasn't specifically talking about Classe' amps, he mentioned that things of this nature DO greatly contribute to the sonics of components. In one specific case, he wa... | |
| Cigarette Smoke Harm Solid State Unit ? I work on electronics for a living and see this all the time. In severe cases, cleaning all of the "gunk" off the circuit board and controls will alter the tuning of the circuitry so drastically that it will no longer function even though it was w... | |
| Where do you guys buy replacement tubes? I have gotten tubes from Kevin Deal. Can't remember what the name of his shop is though. He is very knowledgable about various makes and models and burns / tests each tube before shipment. This way you know your getting something that works and is... | |
| Reviewing the Reviewers Trelja, have you ever had the chance to "rummage through" any old IAR's to any great extent ? I'm just curious as to what your thoughts on them were. Sean> | |
| Classe CA 100 running hot For further info on Goertz cables, zobel's and amplifier oscillation, try doing a couple different search's in the AA "cables" archives using the keywords "Goertz", "Zobel" and "amplifier oscillation". Keep in mind that Goertz cables are NOT the o... | |

| Mapleshade and Maple Audio Cables Using "micro" wire is nothing new. Magnan has been doing it for many, many years. As far as i know, i think that they were the first to "document" just how important wire gauge really was and that the effects of "skin effect", and inductance / cap... | |
| Mapleshade and Maple Audio Cables While i haven't tried any of these cables, the literature that they provide for these products has some TALL "double-speak" in it. Any company that has to resort to that type of thing makes me leary of doing business with them. Then again, almost ... | |
| Reviewing the Reviewers Trelja, if you think Mikey is on his own "high horse", you would REALLY hate J. Peter Moncrieff of both International Audio Review & "Wonder: wire / caps / solder" fame. Quite honestly though, i think it was he that set the pace for ALL other ... | |
| Bi-amp with multi-channel amps in H/T Use a five channel amp to bi-amp the mains and drive the center channel. You can then pick up a similar two channel or three channel amp for the rears. If your doing HT with Maggies, i would highly suggest picking up a sub to reinforce the bottom ... | |
| Anyone heard of this??? Kudos to Albert. I'm kind of a "nostalgia" buff when it comes to older audio gear and do remember the basic arm design, i wasn't familiar with all of the info that you provided. Thanks for filling us in. I was told by others that had worked with t... | |
