| fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones Dr.KnowThe size of the fuse depends on your risk tolerance. I have had erratic sleep patterns over this stuff. Friday though was a great day especially if you had doubled down the day before. Saturday I will install the last magnet in my tube prea... | |
| fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones Sir Knownothing, Thank you for your concerns. I too am concerned and careful with the use of the magnets in my hi-fi. I have had one product over 30 years flame out on me and the internal fuse did not blow or trip the dedicated circuit breaker loc... | |
| fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones Grant I respect you as well, As I responded to someone else on this thread. I don't expect everyone to do as I have. Just here to relate my experience. You know Grant it all starts at the power supply so any component upgrade there is a pass thru ... | |
| fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones Installed another non fuse magnet today. My wife came down and said the bass was shaking the house. She was two floors up. One half hour earlier playing the same passage at the same volume setting she didn't complain at all. The non fuse magnet I ... | |
| Top resistors Today I replaced one resistor in my Starsound amps. I swapped out the parasitic resistor tied to the small air core inductor that goes to a speaker output. The resistors that were in there were North Creek/Ohmite non inductive wire wounds consider... | |
| Top resistors I ordered my Starsound amps 5yrs ago with the naked Vishay resistors. The upgrade in price was well worth the increase in resolution and reduction in noise floor compared to the same amp with the standard resistor pack. Part of my decision for the... | |
| fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones Albert, I don't think your picking on me. I am just reporting to those out there my experiments, trials and results. I don't expect others to try what I have. Reading someone else's idea, experience or result may trigger an expansion of that idea ... | |
| fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones Yes is the answer to no protection. Yes is the answer to better sound. Yes is to the fact that I removed the ferrous cover to my ac mains. Yes is to the better sound resulting from the removal of said cover. Yes it is still covered, now with a non... | |
| fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones Albert, That was If Lightning Strikes. Tom | |
| fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones Albert, no more than ILS. Tom | |
| fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones The non fuse magnets that I use all made for a significant difference. The two replaced on the main amp board were kicked up several notches when I replaced the main ac fuse beside the power cord for each amp with the magnets. The difference was l... | |
| Dunlavy SC IVA X-over resistor values And even yet when these speakers are properly coupled within their own cabinet and to the room cabinet that surrounds them they truly become three dimensional and much less critical to placement. Ya just got to venture out and do it. Tom | |
| fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones Sounds similar to a thread dated 07-24-01. Historical repeat. Tom | |
| fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones A friend of mine replaced the in line fuse on his BAT VK31SE with a maget non fuse I lent him..One fuse nothing else,he said it was a dramatic difference, his teenage son agreed. So did his bird who has an open cage and flys about.Seems that when ... | |
| fuses - the $39 ones or the 85 cent ones No fuses magnets only. And then treated across their centers with AVM. Double blind or double deaf the difference is tactile.Tom |
