| Using Mikro-Smooth w/o Scratching I'm almost afraid to mix & match random chemicals for fear of causing some type of reaction between them. I know people that have literally passed on ( died ) from mixing typical household cleaning solvents and inadvertently inhaling the fumes... | |
| I've got a hum in my Sunfire sub..... Could be caused by a ground loop. That is, if you have the rest of the system plugged into one set of outlets and the subwoofer on the other side of the room into a different set of outlets, you can have a difference in ground potential. The end r... | |
| Legacy 20/20 and Tubes Mcargill: The Focus doesn't use anything close to a true D'Appolito design. D'Appolito's follow a specific pattern in terms of driver sizes, spacing between drivers, crossover slopes, etc...Having said that, i do agree that mic placement could cha... | |
| Speaker repair-need help Mechans: Bill has done this very job many times before from what he told me. As such, it is nothing new to him or too complicated to handle. He simply can't dedicate the amount of necessary time to do the job now. If he were to do that, he would e... | |
| Speaker repair-need help I guess i'll have to wait and see what happens with Commonwealth Edison. I've been pretty good at negotiating insurance claims in the past, but i've never dealt with them before. Other than that, these speakers have fuses in them from the factory.... | |
| Speaker repair-need help Let's just say that one of my Ohm F's is terminated and another is limping along due to my local power company. I've been having bad problems with the AC lately and today was the topper.In the last two months, my power has gone down at least a hal... | |
| Best and Worst sound at the CES Show 2004 I didn't attend CES, but what amazes me about these reports is how two people can listen to the same system and make completely different observations about the sound. Then again, different times of day, different levels of listening fatigue, one'... | |
| Non-magnetic Stainless Steel? FP: I don't know if factory car antennas are ferrous or non-ferrous. I was primarily talking about about aftermarket RF antennas when i made that comment. I would be curious to find this out myself. I'll test mine and let you know tomorrow : ) Sea... | |
| Non-magnetic Stainless Steel? All solid steel based antennas are non-magnetic, otherwise their conductivity and radiation characteristics would be far less predictable than they are. Sean> | |
| ultra low capacitance cables My guess is that Brent went to CES, hence the lack of response here. Just a guess though... Sean> | |
| Grouding question ? Mitch: I'm not familiar with the internal design of any of Shunyata's Hydra's. You really do need to contact them and see what they recommend. My guess is that their surge protection claims become null and void when there isn't a ground wire conne... | |
| Wife approval factor? Brian: I don't doubt that things change once the transition of girlfriend to wife takes place. My girlfriend and i have lived together for 8 years now and neither one of us feels the need to get married, at least not right now. Somehow, i think th... | |
| I'm a little stumped These speakers are at complete opposite ends of the spectrum in almost every respect. It is no wonder that you prefer what you have to the polar opposite. You are accustomed to a very specific type of presentation from the speakers that you curren... | |
| Wife approval factor? The only time that my girlfriend put her foot down was when i tried to use a pair of Klipsch La Scala's for our HT system. She absolutely hates the size and looks of those specific speakers for some reason. Given that i have electronics ALL over t... | |
| ultra low capacitance cables Brent: Once you get below a certain point of capacitance, you really don't gain much other than that one can use a longer length of cable with less potential high frequency degradation. While i agree that capacitance should be kept reasonably low ... |
