| APL Denon 3910 Question Alex responded. The APL audio mods are operative when video is playing. It is just slightly quieter when playing audio only, because of clocks, display etc that work during video.So I will use it in balanced mode, as stated earlier, as I alsao hav... | |
| APL Denon 3910 Question Good question, Jylee, if somewhat cynical/sarcastic. Obviously, I would hope to hear the difference of a mod that costs a few thousand $. I was hoping to have the answer before testing it, since it involves buying a new balanced cable that would b... | |

| advice on amp - $3,500 maximum budget If you want ss punch with a tube sound, I highly recommend the Moscode 401 HR - used, in your ballpark, if you can find one. Doesnt run hot. Built like a tank and George Kaye is instantly available and offers gtreat service. | |
| Jadis musical value? Musically, the best. Be careful of the JOR, as biasing is a pain. Autobias is the way to go. The autobias integrated Jadis' are the best, most musical integrateds I have ever heard/owned. | |
| Moscode 401au I had the 401 HR, which drove successfully the most difficult speakers extant - the Mark-Daniel Maximus, with a wicked impedance curve dropping well below 2. I bet there isn't a speaker they cant drive. Phenomenally good amplifier and built like a... | |

| Made in Canada conundrum Alan, I can say exactly the same about Magnum Dynalab, a Canadian company that has a repair facility somewhere south of the border. 4 day turn-around, superb service. | |

| Made in Canada conundrum Correct, Tvad. Spot-on. As some have stated, I guess different manufacturers go to significant lengths to help their US customers over the hurdles, whereas others do not. | |
| Made in Canada conundrum Joe, in your experience, what percentage of foreign manufacturers do NOT have a US-based repair facility? Appropos the Repair & Return box, I certainly was unaware of it and Customer Service at the manufacturer in Canada certainly didn't menti... | |
| Made in Canada conundrum As I go back and forth with customs, waiting for forms, repeatedly giving my SSN, credit card numbers, swearing at the fax machine because nothing promised arrives, I certainly make this generalised statement of advice to all US residents: Never b... | |
| Biasing Six Pac help FWIW, the amp can be biased without speakers and inputs attached. Per bias instructions supplied by Gerald at Cary. I gave up on the useless Multimeter and bought an analog meter which measures up to 500 mA, just as you have.Problem solved. Thanks... | |
| Biasing Six Pac help Roblanger, the multimeter supplied is set by the seller (?factory) to 200mA and reads only up to 10. About half way turned reads 2.3. But shouldn't it be 0.2 (there are only 3 LEDs, 00.0, so the theoretical maximum it reads is 10.0.So, to read 230... | |
| Biasing Six Pac help Will it work with speakers disconnected? |
