| ac cables falling out of IEC inlets on amps I have found that the IEC's contacts are recessed and barely make contact with the pins in the IEC socket. I have had good sucess by cutting about 1/16 inch of the end of the plug using a fine tooth hack saw.I think the blu-tack is a great idea. I... | |
| Some impressions from the 2007 RMAF: I believe the CDP in the Intuitive Design room was the AMR. | |
| RMAF: My favorites, so-so's, and disappointments Duke, I liked your room also. I wish I had got back on Sunday to hear the "improvements" as you fine tuned the room.Chris | |
| Value of Black Widow? I had one on a tweeked AR with an ADC XLM ... what a nice low budget rig! Chris | |
| Change Single-Ended to Balanced input? You can just ground the negative input on the balanced input and it will work as an unbalenced. On the 8008bb the RCA connects to only one input on the XLR. Chris | |
| CDP putting out too much DC current Hum is usually at the mains frequency or some multiple of it. If the output hum is caused by a DC current, then the excessive current could cause ripple on the DC power supply lines which MIGHT find its way onto the output. This problem has me int... | |
| Sound Quality: Computer vs. CD Player Can anyone recommend a sound card for a compaq PC with spdif out? | |
| What is the BEST resistor for audio use I hav only heard good things about BULK metal film. The vishay is one and the Caddock is another. Caddock started in the precision test and measurement fields. .01% is easy for them. Chris | |
| Pass 600 Monos vs Krell 350 monos Pass X series is a great line of amps. You can't go wrong with that combo ..... Chris | |
| My CD drawer won't open please help ? My denon has a belt and it gets loose. I have to get a new belt and then all is fine. Chris | |
| Exchange Krell KAV-250a for a Pass Labs X-350? It is indead a tough question ....I have heard several pieces of krell gear and it is always very good, but one of the most musical adutions I have ever had was thru a Pass pre and an X350. It was truly magical. Remember that this was my experienc... | |
| Exchange Krell KAV-250a for a Pass Labs X-350? Most pre amps with a balanced input and output will have impedance specs simular to the ones mentioned. In a balanced output stage the designer will put protection resistors on the outputs and the value doubles because now ther is two of them in a... | |
| John Dunlavy On "Cable Nonsense" Lets pretend (cause it probably will not happen in real life) that your speaker has a strong impedance dip and drops from a nominal 8 ohms to say .25 ohms. If both cables were of simular guage then the longer ones could have a little more resistan... | |
| John Dunlavy On "Cable Nonsense" Gpalmer, your test results have blown me away. I would have not expected them to be that different. I would like to see several people try to measure the differences and give a detailed report. Chris | |
| John Dunlavy On "Cable Nonsense" Trappist: The quick answer ... No I do not have any recomendations for equipment. The resolution om a 16 bit system mathamaticaly is around 86 db. It would be higher for a higher bit a/d converter but that is not the problem with making high accur... |
