| ELP laser turntable I'm much to young to recall. | |
| Tube Amps: Which Taps? 4ohm, 6ohm, 8ohm? Make that "highest output voltage swing". | |
| Tube Amps: Which Taps? 4ohm, 6ohm, 8ohm? I would expect that the 8 ohm tap supplies the highest swing, the 6 ohm less, and the 4 ohm least (that would be consistent with transformer winding ratios for the impedance matching. If you use the 4 ohm tap on an 8 ohm nominal speaker, depending... | |

| Difference between "Watts" & "Currunts"? Someone will probably refer you to a good book, but...Voltage is electrical potential or "pressure" provided by a source such as a battery, generator supplying your wall outlet, or an audio amplifier and is usually denoted as "E". When some load i... | |
| Internal Speaker Wiring ?? Finally, somebody noticed. Also look at the wiring from your amp board to the monstrous gold binding posts. Both runs are short , however, and generally based on engineering principle like adequate wire size to handle the expected current. With ev... | |
| Biamplification in Mid-Fi? I'll try again based on you interest in experimentation. For mid-fi, you might also check out the Audio Control Richter Scale. If you really want to play, why buy speakers with design, parts, and labor included and then undo it? Why not check out ... | |
| Biamplification in Mid-Fi? I think I'd put the money and/or effort into a fundamental step up in speakers and/or electronics if you could identify something that would suit you and your budget. You would probably get more bang. JMO | |
| "Protocols" of record cleaning Generally agree with Alexc although I have Nitty Gritty, just because I do. Keep the DW off your records - I don't care what anybody says. Carbon fiber brushes are OK for a little lint that might pop up, but I have never found one that does not sh... | |
| Tube Biasing? Explain Please In linear classes of operation like in hifi amps, the tubes will be drawing idle (no signal) current. If the tubes are matched they will draw the same current with the same bias. | |
| Phono Cartridges and Replacement Styli How about needledoctor.com. | |
| Nakamichi Dragons worth the fix? Just for additional info to help you decide, Sonic Sense also specializes in Nak stuff. Their website was henge.com/~sncsns/. | |
| Dave Brubeck-Take Five Ah, yes. Another of my missing domestic oldies. | |
| AC adapter The only adapter RS shows in their catalog that actually is 16V is notebook computer power adapter 273-1685 that is switchable 6 - 24V in 1V steps for $79.99. | |
| Sparking Ground Wire BTW - if your plumbing is all copper, it is grounded regardless of what your electrician did for the power distribution system. Ergo, there is the same exposure when showering etc in either case. The moral - even if you have a ground rod - stay un... |
