| VR-4jr spike upgrade I have been very pleased with the soundocity outriggers. Adjustable, reasonably priced and solid.http://www.soundocity.com/products.html(No affiliation with the company) | |
| How to go about cleaning my speakers? I prefer a vacuum cleaner using the soft, long bristle uphostery brush just to get the dust off. That is, if you have to do anything at all. The sound won't change, just the appearance. | |
| Pre amp section of marantz 7001 and onkyo 805 Have fun! Merry Christmas, I am sure you deserve it! | |
| Pre amp section of marantz 7001 and onkyo 805 I love my 805 and use it for surround sound. I have tested it against my dedicated 2 channel with HT pass-through. It is excellent and I recommend it. The differences between these two units will be less than that of the source and the rest of the... | |
| Is a Sub worth the bother? I would recommend a small sub. The rated lowest frequency for your speakers is stated to be 65 Hz, I assume at -3 dB. You are missing some of the music. I have Von Schweikert VR-1s, roughly the same frequency response. I added an REL Q108E and I o... | |
| Pre-Amp Match You might consider the Modwright pre-amp. Tube qualities but still crisp and dynamic. | |
| Restore Infinity RS3b - foam around all 4 woofers Check out Parts-express for their repair speakers section. They have re-foam kits. I've used them and although they cn be tricky, they work. Another trick for foam not too badly damaged is rubber cement. This was actually recommended to me by a te... | |
| Shopping for a new netbook or laptop... I recommend you check out Computer Audiophile website. Great information on equipment and how to set it up. They prefer Apple but are flexible with a variety of configurations. Good luck. | |
| Receiver / CD player DAC Bob always wins! | |
| Need help selecting bookshelf speakers for theatre I recommend the Dynaudios or Von Schweikert VR-1s. Also, buy used if possible. If not, buy internet with a 30 day return policy-consider AV123, Axiom, Hsu research (my favorite). | |
| Class T amps and Zu Druid Credenza's Just in case you didn't know, Tripath amps cannot have a common speaker neutral without shorting out the chip. This means that using a sub would require a sub output jack on the amp. You cannot simply bridge from the speaker outputs as most RELs a... | |
| Best speaker value between $1800-$2100 I have tried several speakers with my Creek 5350SE and settled on Von Schweikerts. They work well together. You may not need even the VR-4JRs (which I own) since even the VR-2s would probably work well. I am currently using the VR-1 plus a small R... | |
| where to place equipment rack? Opinions abound and are free....here's mine. When I have done spl measurements all around the room, the fronts corners were the loudest, esp with bass, in between the speakers was next and along the long wall was least. That's where I put my rack.... | |
| CD Repair? No machine can fix scratches that take away data. I have not had to send mine off for fixing, using the OTC methods noted above. Your local DVD rental place has a machine that fixes rental DVDs. They are expensive but effective and they may be hel... | |
| Anti Cables to join my system, are they enough? I wonder if nearly pure copper wire, of any kind, is close to the standard of electrical transmission from amplifier to speaker given that most speakers use copper internally from binding post to driver. Any other form of electrical transmission i... |
