add remote control AC on/off for power amp?
How about a "Clapper"?Just kidding. Do you have a 12v trigger on the amp, you don't mention what Brand or Model. If anything in your system does look at the PS audio product line. A lot ofpower conditioner/power strips have this feature. 
Mini Home Theater Speakers ?
Take a look at the Mirage Omni Sats as well. I use them in my bedroom and with a sub they do quite well. They eliminate a sweet spot and produce a pretty good range of dynamics for the money. If you want something for sitting and listening to 2 ch... 
Sub blowing Christmas lights?
I can't imagine that the sub is doing it. I can't think that an over load on the circuit would blow the fuse in the lights. It would blow the circuit breaker. I am sure the plug on the lights are polarized so you can't try turning the plug 180 deg... 
Revel F12 amplifier?
I think adding a seperate amp aside from the amplification provided in the Integra would add considerable sonics. As the power supply in the receiver would be able to dedicate itself to the duties of a pre-amp. And the amp would then become a new ... 
New LP with pops + crackle, What is expected?
It is so frustrating to pay twice the price of a cd for an album and have as much surface noise as a $4.00 used LP.But the downside, for the dealers, is that they eat it. The record distributer and pressing company retain their profits and let the... 
Preamp to Run Revel F52s & C52s
Theater pass thru is a circuit the takes the 2 front channels out of the pre-pro and directs them to the amp.This allows you to have a stereo pre amp and have your 2 channel sources utilize a 2 channel sytem. In my case I have a 2 channel amp so 5... 
Help: Records too big for the VPI 16.5
One thought now that MoFi has brought it up. Is it possible those 4 holes are drilled off center and is it possible to rotate the plate and refasten it. It may be aexcentric position from the center to the edge. It doesn't sound like you are that ... 
Help: Records too big for the VPI 16.5
If I understand you correctly, you are stating that the larger disc that the spring pushes against from beneath is actually contactimg the edge of the LP? Are you sure you have a genuine VPI wand. Although I have never seen anyone else make on wit... 
Marantz reliability?
Although I have never owned a Marantz Receiver I have owned a few DVD-Universal players and a tuner and had no problems what so ever with them. I have used and still use their universal remotes and love them.I found Marantz to have excellent servi... 
Power Strip Question - PLEASE HELP
The one topic I have not seen discussed here is the circuit that this one plug/outlet is on. What else does it power? Is it possible to dedicate it and make it a 20amp circuit. I think I would make my first investment there. An electricion can tel... 
Preamp to Run Revel F52s & C52s
I have the F32's and C32 and run mine with a McIntosh MX135 in theatre mode and when I am listening to 2 channel I am using an Audio Research LS26. I get a very good detailed sound out of both. I did gain a good step forward by adding the seperate... 
Linn Abandons CD Players
I agree I would rather have a tangeble product in my hands. I am sure downloads will be better in resolution, but then you run a risk of hard drive failure. I guess that you can have a back up, but I would rather go to my shelf and pick out an LP ... 
LP12 suspension susceptible to acoustic feedback
If you have a concrete floor than you don't need a wall shelf. Just the a good solid stand will do. But I would tie the elephant up out back when playing records as mine used to want to dance and he might bump the TT stand.It was sad when he died.... 
When's Delicate Sound Of Thunder coming out on DVD
I have been waiting for this as well. Hopefully some one will know the answer. Also anyone know if there will be anymore SACD releases. I had heard when the 30yr DSOTHM was released the Wish You Were Here was slated to be out as a 5.1 SACD. By the... 
LP12 suspension susceptible to acoustic feedback
Sounds like you have too much under the TT. I use Aurios under my LP12 and get great results. I have on a cabinet that is braced to the wall behind it to control any lateral movement. And with the Aurios under a single shelf that the TT sets on I ...
