| HELP I think I have an electrical issue?? I'm not familiar with your amps but that is where I suspect the problem lies. Not saying they aren't functioning properly but they may have less RFI noise filtering capability than the Bel Cantos. | |

| Dimple in speaker driver cone I have a pair of 1.6s with a dimple just like yours. It ain't coming out easy. I tried the tape, didn't help. I tried the vacuum, didn't work. With both methods the dimple came out but went right back in when pressure was released. The woofer is a... | |
| Denon Mono block amp running hotter than the other I had a similar situation once with a Classe amp where one side was much warmer than the other.

Now I have another DIY project to schedule.Seriously though, I raised my speakers up a nearly 3 inches with some plinths made from MDF, spiked to the floor with sorbothane pads on top. The results with both Thiel CS-1.6s and Meado... | |
| Outriggers: Soundocity only game in town? There are other alternatives but in my searches none that are inexpensive. I made my own. When I started it was just to give it a try so I wasn't concerned with their looks. I wish I'd paid more attention as they work perfect. Not long after makin... | |
| Which screwdriver needed for Musical Fidelity A324 The set I showed has bot torx and hex of various sizes. Although they have the center hollowed out for security type screws, they can be used with standard heads also. You should be able to find a set at a hardware store. | |

| Possibile new Integreated recomendation I went from the CAP-151 to a Bel Canto eVo2i two years ago. It was a big improvement IMO. Got me off the upgrade path. | |
