| Short list of musical subwoofers Guys........the room size is also a big factor. I have a system on the long wall at one end, a sixty foot wall, and eighteen feet across, allowing long wave lengths to propagate nicely. The longer the room, the better possibility of more enjoyable... | |
| Questions about Ethernet Cabling Hello.....connect a PC to the Ethernet and get a free Speed Test App from your ISP or other. Anything near 20mbps should do it. | |
| Infinity Servo Statics 1A's...where are they??? Infinity goofed. They lowered the crossover point to 75hz on the 1A's and the mid panels couldn't handle the extra power. I have been running Servo 1's for forty years and they don't catch fire often enough LOL to worry about.....Tim in Scottsdale | |
| Why are there no tube televisions anymore? GuysI had a 31" Mitsubishi for years and moved on to projectors. I briefly craved a 35" Mits, there was one on the floor at JL Hudson's in the Twelve Oaks Mall, Novi. I was puzzled though, it wasn't plugged in. Hmmm.I asked for demo and the guy sa... | |
| Cable co. is forcing me to rent or buy what they call a Guys please..........routers make your internet wireless around the house; typical range around 60 feet depending on how many walls. Frequencies are 2.4ghz and 5ghz. For greater coverage consider a "mesh router" system with base station and satell... | |
| So damn hard deciding which tube preamp to buy! Hello......there are nice transistor preamps that sound like tubes. Audio Research and others. Preamps don't clip like power amps, so tubes are less of an issue. My Audio Research Line Stage 3 is very pleasing and lacks only a phono stage but I do... | |
| Is It Time To Sell My Vinyl Rig? Your health comes first. And your family. I had tons of vinyl and a Thorens and I don't miss it much. The Sheffield LPs were awful nice though LOLehometech | |
| Pimping your router GuysWith digital signals, they Work or Don't Work. You are streaming audio at 25khz? I stream HDTV at 30mhz. No need for exotic cables, just decent quality.ehometech Phoenix | |
| Ready, set, comment! Speaker cables don’t make a difference? GuysPeople selling costly wires make a lot of money doing so. $1000 power cords......have you lost your mind?? Cryogenic frozen? So what???I read somewhere that electrons flow on the skin of the wire, therefore stranded cables should perform bette... | |
| How much space between cables is enough? Proximity of "Power cables and power cables is a problem". Huh? That makes no sense as they are energized identically and who cares after the 120v reaches the power supplies and becomes DC. I would keep signal cables away from power cables in any ... | |
| High Performance Audio - The End? I noticed this many times. It's kind of ironic, but your loathsome NTSC video signals of years ago adhered to some fairly strict standards; IRE units, color temps, many things all very technical. Two inch helical scan quad head video tape recorder... | |
| review my list please I like Samsung but some of the larger tvs have an odd connection setup with all connections into a remote box (power too) and a scary thin umbilical cable to the back of the tv, like pencil thin. Saw one and I found it worrisome. | |
| Tubes? You will probably like tube amps; those with 6550C’s on the outputs are quite nice. Tube amps distort more softly if driven into clipping. Try amps with tubes first, the preamp having tubes is less of a concern as it will rarely be clipped. Certai... | |
| ... abit confused: how does a power cord affect the presentation of sound... GuysAs a technician, audiophile and projector rebuilder of forty years experience, you have my assurance that power cords need only have large enough gauge wire for the amount of current to be carried, and decent quality plugs and sockets both end... | |
| Are cables really worth their high price because of their geometry? High end cables are a hoax. I use Canare video coax with RCA plugs; the cable is good to 30 megahertz. My ears can't hear half that high LOLA high school science teacher asked his class,"What is the highest pitched sound a human can hear?" Katy re... |
