| Question about byamplification @plga Yes you can. That’s perfectly safe. Most refer to this as bi-wiring. By the way, it’s bi-amping not by-amping. But people who have actually done both would tell that bi-amping is the next level. In fact, it’s not even close, the difference ... | |
| Did Audiogon get sold to the Chinese or Russian Govt? Instead of using Amazon, how about saying ONLINE. | |
| Question about byamplification @plga To do it right, you need an external electronic crossover, like a Marchant crossover (see link below). You are going to have to disconnect at least the bass driver from the passive crossover. Not sure if your speakers are 2-way or 3. If 3-w... | |
| Why Does My Current Music Sound So Much Better than It Did in the 80’s? @tcotruvo Don’t underestimate the effects of the room. You might be in an acoustically great room. Enjoy it while your ears are still good 😊. | |
| Near field subs A pair of 18 inchers near the listening seat seems extreme to me, kind of bass-headish. This guy must really like bass. Thankfully, when using multiple subs, one has a lot of flexibility with placement. | |
| Electrical I would think the electrician will be following the electrical code. If you need something extra, you probably will have to get a grounding apparatus like those offered by companies such as Synergistic Research and Entreq. | |

| What defines mid-fi versus high-end? The best I can do is an analogy with the video world: mid-fi is 720p and hi-fi is 2k and up. And that is still being simplistic. You still need to know how to set it up properly in a suitable environment. Money is just a part of it but you also n... | |
| Seller Listing Pet Peeve You are absolutely correct. Sometimes even reviewers failed to show the back of the equipment they review. I always hate it when that happens. | |
| Higher amperage fuse for sound quality @rfprice Short answer is no I haven’t experienced anything like that. If you want to confirm your findings, have someone switched the fuse ten times and see if you can tell which fuse is in at any given time. See if you can guess correctly at lea... | |
| Potential Revolutionary Discovery for Speakers? I will wait till I see it. Very interesting concept though. Wish they could tell me more about the frequency response of such device. No doubt there will be a lot of applications for it but high end audio might not be one of them if the frequency ... | |

| Competitive class D amp suggestions @niodari What 4 class D amps have you tried and which one is your favorite? What speakers are you currently using? What is your max budget? Without these basic information, how can anyone reasonably offer any recommendations to you? | |
| Powering 2 subs When you run Audyssey it should discover both subs and reports number of subwoofer as 2. |
