| Best Inexpensive Subwoofer Hsu has always been good, I have two pair of older ones. Haven't used others. | |
| What is your dream turntable? To show how times have changed a friend of mine in Chicago in the mid 60s had one of these in very good condition with a 12" SME arm and wanted to sell it to me for $150. But I already had a table and was a graduate student so I didn't get it. | |
| Solve on Problem Create Another Help I cross my REL at 22hz to my Spendor SP-1/2Es. I had the same problem with higher, (30,32 Hz) cross over points. . Start at lowest possible crossover point and work your way up. Samhar is right about the 88. Sumiko, the REL importer, recommends th... | |
| how to hook up subwoofer? If it is a REL they are best connected to the output of your power amp. | |
| Class A Amp The big Pass amps should give this much class A power at this impedance. Check their website. | |
| Record Weight for JA Michell GyroDec SE I use to sell the Michell, but it was some time ago. I think the SOTA clamp would fit. It works well on my Basis Ovation. | |
| Sonic difference between 96khz and 192k sampl rate My TriVista 21 has both, 96 sounds better to me. | |
| new small room, big change If you decide that you do want a speaker smaller then the Spendors then look at B&W 805s. I have the original ones which are very good, The newer ones are exceptional and look great. | |
| new small room, big change Don't worry about the woofer size, it isn't relevant. The classic British speaker is a 2 way 8" woofer and most British rooms are smaller than yours. There is a pair of Spendor 2/2s listed for $675. This is a steal. I use a pair in my TV system an... | |
| Mapleshade cables?? v Anti Cables I have both ; my impression is that the Mapleshade has a brighter , but very detailed, sound while the Anti is more laid back. I used two different amps with them. But as they say on TV, "Results Will Vary". it will depend on the rest of your syst... | |
| What wire gauge suitable for small tube amp? The problem is in the other direction. I can't tell you the number of times I have seen very long runs of 22 gage wire. You can loose half of the amps power overcoming the resistance of wire like that. The smaller the wire the more resistance, I a... | |
| musical speakers for a Quad system Buy used. I was a Spendor dealer and have 6 pairs , three I bought new and 3 used and they all perform the same. Any speaker that has not been abused has a very long life and you will pay a fraction of it's new cost. Buy from someone with an Audio... | |
| Pass Labs comparison I have not heard the new generation of Pass but would offer some things for your consideration. The first is the usual reason for increasing power is to get better bass, which does not apply in your case. Would the extra power be of use to you? Th... | |
| subwoofer cable recommendations. I am using Signal Cable for my REL. They made up a Speakon cable which is much better than the stock cable and was cheaper. This is a high level cable but their line level cables look good also. | |
| Transport For Use w/ MF Trivista 21 I use a Meridian 200. Look at Sam Tellig's conversation with Anthony Michaelson , Musical Fidelity's owner, in Stereophile. He told Sam the transport was not critical with the 21 and about anything would do. |
