I am openning a shop. What equipment should I sell
Also, I'd like to second the advice in going in funded. If I had gone into business with more money, I have no doubt that success was there. Working revenue a major key. If you have a good plan, money and are willing to branch outside of just high...

Yes, SpeakerCraft, Did you know us? 
Does Bi-amping really make a difference in sound?
I currently don't have any interest in doing biamping at the moment and I would check other threads before opening a new thread and I don't know Rlh157 from Adam. Maybe I should have suggested that he could find a wealth of information in past thr...

Amp for Dahlquist DQ-10
I haven't sat in front of DQ 10's in a long long time, but I have sat in front of them in a couple of homes probably 25+ years ago and once in my store. I modded the pair in my store. In the store we put them on Sumo gear, it did a good job on the...

I agree with Elizabeth 100% on this. If you are stuck on Bi amping, I would recommend active crossovers. This takes out the input/output voltage and impedance matching issues that is the abundance of the problem. You can then dial in frequency and...

Hi Sounds real audio, I went down that path myself. In todays market this is a tough proposition. I knew Randy Patton, so I carried a couple of his products. PS, Meitner, I didn't pick up Threshold. I built my own speakers. I came from the old Mar... 
How to shop for speakers?
Hi Atmasphere, I think I got it right Power = Sensitivity, Voltage = Efficiency. In the long run, it doesn't matter for what we all do and in fact the two terms are 95% interchangable. We all know what we mean when we say a speakers Sensitivity or... 
How to shop for speakers?
Hi Atmasphere, I think we are on the same page here. I have built 1 amp and modded a few, but I'm a simple minded speaker guy. I try to speak in the simplest terms possible on these forums, because it took my feeble mind a long time to get where I... 
Forte Model 55 Amp
I know that it is 100 watts per channel, class A/B, has single ended and balanced inputs. After that, I got nothin. 
How to shop for speakers?
Sensitivity won't matter, if you have inductive speakers and enough power to get to the listening levels that you require. I looked up the Mac MC275, it is 75 watts, you should be fine with a minimum of 86db sensitivity. That will give you 101db o... 
How to shop for speakers?
Speaker typically lean toward having a inductive load or capacitive load, these are normally called phase angles, they are measured in degrees. Phasing that tends toward the plus side(inductive) are tube friendly, speakers that lean toward the neg... 
Is speaker accuracy important for a rock speaker?
I agree with Onhwy61 100%. The Klipsch are great. Back in my Marcof/SpeakerCraft days, we did alot of research with a couple hundred people. By a large margin, the rockers liked a fairly accurate speaker, except in the bottom end. We ended up maki...
