| May I add a subwoofer to stereo system? I really like my Boston Acoustics PV-1000 high-power, small sub for HT, but just wouldn't bother in my ref 2ch system.Suba are a pain to integrate perfectly for great music.For HT and more casual background FM, as in my case for example, they fill... | |
| Matching components to Speakers?? I too can't imagine that you'll ever send 200 watts to a surround!But more to the point, start by getting the sensitivity ratings of the speakers you're auditioning. If they're near the norm of 88dB/w, and not too low an impedence, than they'll re... | |
| Can you ever have too much power? Didn't you hear his speech last night? | |
| Will sand work in DIY speaker wires? Uh...yes, it's currently being done. Write me for the manufacturer. I make PCs using the magical Belden 83802, but use an outer soft jacket for resonance damping, even though I could stuff it with virgin North Truro beach sand. Careful what you ov... | |
| Any Audio Grade Extension Cords??? I now make 4 outlet 4.5" sq. solid cast aluminum 2 20amp duplex (P&S or Hubbell) power "boxes" with hard-wired Belden 83802 PC as a kit for only $55. RSVP for details.Makes more sense than just a one-outlet extension as I had said last Decembe... | |
| Electrocompaniet EMC-1: let's talk? EC received my wire payment for the EMC-1 MKII "UP" mod parts kit and instructions and says they sent the kit today. Yippee! | |
| Electrocompaniet owners EC received payment for the EMC-1 MkII "UP" mod parts and says they shipped them with installation instructions today.Yippee! | |
| Where have the long-time regulars gone? After the several incredibly vulgar, threatening personal emails my family received after a minor technical disagreement with Carl I stayed away from Agon until the coast was clear. It was no fun to have my 14yr old daughter open said emails befor... | |
| Anyone ever heard of the Shunyata and Cardas I use Shunyatas on my refrigerator and ac. Colder lows, without overly "hard" ice cream. The Cardas are famous for a much warmer sound, so best use is on space heaters, toaster ovens, etc. Read the threads, and save your $$. | |
| What do you think of this system? Not important. What does it sound like to YOU in YOUR room? | |
| CD Players with Analogue Sound Electrocompaniet EMC-1 MkII. No digital glare AT ALL! And no tube plumpness or rolled top octave, either. Yippee. | |
| which component should i put the better cable on? And quality is NOT often correllated with price! | |
| Strangest Tweak? I often see a couple of octogenarians at Symphony Hallwearing those leather pinna-extenders because of necessity. Quite the upper-mid boost I suspect. | |
| Do I want a preamp? I agree, Msa. here's no question that my Aleph 2 monos are much happier having an Aleph P pre ($1800 used) pushing them rather than direct from my EMC-1 MkII (balanced).It all depends upon gain and impedence matching, which can be a huge problem w... | |
| Best line conditioner??? How about a Teflon dielectric, beefy, double-shielded dedicated line? RSVP for details. Cheers |
