| Opinions bout "Domino" Silver mica caps.....NOS I just saw this posting, while searching for sonic info on silver mica caps. Assuming the cap still works, it is a just sliver mica cap, I doubt it is as good as modern ones at its working RF frequencies. But if you need the value, and you have... | |
| Excel Sound Corp ST 1 step up transformer Oh, I see. I misread this posting. Thanks! | |
| Excel Sound Corp ST 1 step up transformer I am in the market for a step up transformer. This looks like a good one, anyone know where I can buy or audition one? | |
| First Streamer... I am using two different approaches to streaming. First, I have a BlueSound Node that I use for streaming most everything. It also acts as a Roon endpoint, so I can stream from Roon. I use a BlueSound Vault 2 to convert my entire CD library t... | |
| Voices coming through soundbar after I turn off tv If it is only the soundbar creating the problem, try this - Put a 0.00001 to 0.001uFd COG/NPO capacitor across the speaker terminals with a voltage rating of 100V or more. You can get a one from DigiKey, Newark, or Mouser. If it is a RF bleed i... | |
| Magnus Audio I don't have one but I had to look at the companies website. Just looking at the datasheet, it appears this is an honest Class A amplifier. There aren't many companies around who make a real, honest, Class A amplifier. Decent warranty, too. ... | |
| One stereo or two (stereo and mono) cartridges? I've always played mono records with stereo cartridges. I understand there is less noise with a mono cartridge, which could be useful. However, for me, I put the money into a better stereo cartridge and tonearm. Rather than split the cost, why ... | |
| Harmon Kardon citation 2 bias question Have you tried a search for HK Citation II Bias instructions on the net? I did a quick look and found a ton of information. However, I am unfamiliar with the HK C II, so I am not sure exactly what you need to know. Are the jacks factory issue... | |
| Voices coming through soundbar after I turn off tv I had a problem years ago with bleed in from my neighbors CB radio. My system was off but it was picked up by the speaker cables and came out through my Dahlquist DQ10's! Grounded coaxial speaker cables fixed the problem. I would guess you ha... | |
| FIdelity Cables or Virtual Dynamics That is a question only you can answer. Your system will tell you what it likes and simply trust your ears. Likewise, you may find the cost may not justify the sound improvement, again, something only you can answer. | |
| Is NewClear amplifiers (NC1000L) still in business? I can't answer your question directly but I can say that webpages are usually paid for a period of time in advance, so if a company folds, their webpage may continue to live for the prepaid period. If the company did fold, they that would explain... | |
| WILL IT MAKE A DIFFERENCE? @immatthewj I use Blue Jeans Cables and home brew speaker cables. My speakers are Shahinian Diapasons and two Double Eagle Subwoofers, giving me two subs per channel. I mounted them on two steel stands filled with lead shot. As I said, the tub... | |
| WILL IT MAKE A DIFFERENCE? I went from transistors to FETS to vacuum tubes and I now have a mix of both. My first vacuum tube preamp was the Dynaco, my power amps were Conrad Johnson's; now everything is CJ. The sound is different and you will have to decide which you pre... | |
| WHAT CABLES BEST TRANSPARENT OPUS ? Ha! You will get a billion responses here about what is best with little correlation. So, my two cents here - The more I study interconnect cables, the more I go back to Blue Jeans LC-1 cable: https://www.bluejeanscable.com/store/audio/LC1-desi... | |
