| Will sun exposure damage my speakers? Get yourself some liquid latex. Foam surrounds that are failing absorb it like a sponge. A few coats works wonders and adds years to the drivers. | |
| Speaker impedance patterns - how to read them? So here you go: Most conventional cone speakers have a rising impedance as frequency goes up. What most speaker designers should do that do not want to impedance compensate their designs is rate the impedance based upon the operating range of the ... | |
| DAC That Punches Above Its Price Point I've owned more budget DAC's than you can count. Also built a couple from diyinhk.com..... For me without a doubt the SMSL SU9 is the best sounding thing that has hit my system under 1k. Beware, I had to send it to SMSL to get a firmware update... | |

| testing a crossover PM me, I'll answer when I can, but there are things to check that have not been mentioned. This can be figured out. It may well be a driver problem, if not, I can draw new crossover schematics for you with a few improvements if you can build the... | |

| Class D amps seem poised to take over. Then what? @atmasphere "We've already done that- been working on it for the last 4 years. We're in Beta production right now."congratulations Ralph, I'm sure that it would be GREAT. I'd love to beta test one. | |
| Class D amps seem poised to take over. Then what? Class D has definitely come along way. From my thinking it really has just made its way to be able to compete with A, A/B and the other variants. I believe that we can finally believe it when someone says "its that good". , but we will still al... | |
| Looking for preamp which is good at BOTH single-ended AND balanced output This would be hard to find, but an SST Ambrosia is a world class Preamp with 2 single ended and 2 balanced..... You can get the first series for $3000, maybe less. The series 2 is essentially the same preamp, but the moved a few circuits around t... | |
| Conrad Johnson vs Van Alst I would go CJ for sure, but it really depends on the final result that you are seeking.... I've never compared, but have heard both. I'm guessing that the CJ will be more detailed, maybe a bit faster....but similar otherwise. You, know, I've met... | |
| Replacement capacitors exploding What is the value and voltage rating on the caps?Also, I suspect that you have an DC Offset issue with the amp being used. | |
| SS Budget "Tone" Integrated Amplifiers Belles Aria first..... If you can find an old Audio Refinement, its a bit darket than the Belles, but sounds great and inexpensive. |
