| AVM MP 5.2 Transport Problem I think some of you guys are missing the point. A new laser pickup assembly usually costs around 50 dollars. A new transport about 300 dollars. 899 Euro is to change the transport and the supporting electronics that fits their newer model. Now, is... | |
| AVM MP 5.2 Transport Problem That's not an option as far as I'm concerned. I'm not going to fall into the same trap twice. How can I be sure that other parts in this machine that have no replacement won’t fail in the near future? | |
| No replaement PCBs for Krell Evo series You think so? I was told by two Krell technicians it couldn't be repaird or it it would cost more than I paid for it. It does look very complicated. https://i.postimg.cc/sx2Kv9Wx/Whats-App-Image-2024-07-24-at-16-28-46-236e2224.jpg | |
| Krell 707 problem need help Thanks for your response. It seems I have no choice but send it to Krell. | |
| ESP Speakers Hi Guys. After a long search, I finally found and purchased an old pair of ESP Concert Grands mark 1. However, they need some repair. I wonder if anybody here knows perchance how Can I access the drivers of these speakers. The top plate seems to b... | |
| Jadis ja-200 vs ja500 Update: Bought old Jadis JP80 and connected it to the JA30. WOW! Right now I feel no need for a bigger Jadis amp. Amazing resolution, depth, bass, dynamics, emotion. So it seems like the problem was in the preamp, not the amps. Thanks for all res... | |
| Spade vs bare wire I had my XLO 5.1 connected to my ESP speakers directly, through wire soldering. I then for convenience sake replaced that with WBT 0702.12 on the speaker's side and direct on the amp binding posts (Luxman m900U). Result: the connection via the WBT... | |
| Jadis ja-200 vs ja500 Thank you, guys. Very good comments, just what I was looking for. Rcprince, the JA30 is indeed a wonderful amp. I tried it with kt88 and El 34. It sounds amazing on my quad 57 (for those looking for a good match with those), but on my ESP Bodhran,... | |
| Luxman M900u stereo vs Mono setup One suggestion to increase the power/attack of the M900U that worked for me: Turn off the meters. | |
| ESP Speakers An update on my adventure with ESP Bodhran SE.After measuring the impedance of the speakers, something I should have perhaps done long ago, I was surprised to see that it was 4 and not 8 ohms, as the manufacturer states on his website. I changed t... | |
| Step down transformers for japanese gear I should stress that not every step-down transformer would do for hi-end applications. Transformers can impart their own sonics on the sound. The one I recommend is audio-grade, isolation(!) transformer, with low(!) radiation. I measured the radia... | |
| Jadis JA-80: Tubes and speakers. One last note to put the record straight. it turns out the problem I had with the Jadis was just tube matching. After measuring the tubes (KT-120) and matching them properly, it now works perfectly: no problem of bloated bass or speakers matching.... | |
| Jadis JA-80: Tubes and speakers. Thanks for all the responses. rhljaz, I did try another preamp, the Luxman C900u. To my ears The JA80 sounded better with the JPL. About speaker synergy, I also tried another modern speaker, the results were somewhat better but not what I was look... | |
| ESP Speakers Hi Guys,First, I wanted to thank rhljazz for his help. I should have done it sooner but life took me in other directions lately. I was finally able to refurbish the ESP crossovers on my own. While at it, I changed some parts (caps, resistors) to h... | |
| Luxman m-900u owners - quick question I also have M900U and C900U. Had Jadis and other hi quality tube amplifiers in the past and now switched with the Luxmans to SS. I am very happy. |
