| Help integrated amp is not working? Perform a thorough visual inspection of the tube socket to ensure nothing is damaged. You could also do a continuity check on the tube pins on both channels and compare the results from left to right channel. If everything checks ok, I'd agree wit... | |
| Disconnecting speaker while power amp on - any dan As long as you don't short (touch) the loose hanging speaker cable to the other cable nothing bad will happen. The amp sees the same thing as having no speaker connected at all. The important thing is make sure the speaker wires DON'T touch. Smoke... | |
| Yet another subwoofer request Velodyne SPL-800 I purchased a used SPL-800II (not the newer R model) here a few weeks ago for $400. This is my first attempt at using a sub; strictly for two channel music. Getting it dialed in took a bit of work. It is augmenting a pair of small floor standers s... | |
| New to Audiogon and have a question If new binding posts are all that is required and you have some skill then do it yourself. It's a cinch. If the amp needs more work, you need to decide if it's worth the cost. It won't be all that cheap. | |
| anyone mention tull? Oh the memories. Sitting on the floor in my buddies basement listening to "Stand Up" on a pair of omni dierctional Pioneer speakers his big brother brought back from Vietnam. I'll admit I kind of lost touch with Jethro Tull but that is some good m... | |
| Do we believe in Machina Dynamics? I recently bid on a Clever Little Clock, not so much because I wanted to try it but rather to see if a legitimate bid from someone not associated with the seller would win. My bid was too low as it went for $141.Why? I'm skeptical that real people... | |
| Covers on unused RCA inputs? I use them on my unused phono input (no turntable presently) to ensure I don't accidentally plug a line level device in there. | |
| What must I correct to get the perfect sound? You're 21 and you want "perfect" sound? Welcome to the hunt.Take a look at some of the upper-end systems here and ask the owners if they have perfect sound. I suggest you sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride. | |
| Devendra Banhart - Anybody listening ? Try Ross Beach. He's from the other coast. | |
| Online shopping for music I frequently use half.com. It's usually quick, depending on the seller (feedback) and selection is good. For obscure music try cdbaby. Very fast and they are good for experimentation. Also check the archives as this question's been asked several t... | |
| Are the Grammy's becoming irrelevant? It seems to me "country" music, if we call the pap that passes for country music these days "country" music, is much more popular now. As mainstream as any other genre. That's the reason it can win a Grammy. | |
| Best sounding cd in your collection Jorma Kaukonen: Blue country heart -- this cd does sound fantastic. | |
| TDK SA-X or Maxell XLII-S which do you prefer? Used them both with excellent results. Usually bought whichever had best deal. | |
| Cable Burn-In Question Interconnect & Speaker Denounce? I didn't read that in Shadorne's post.How about doubt? Is that authorized here? | |
| Are the Grammy's becoming irrelevant? Can't recall the year, but it was a long time ago when Heavy Metal was introduced as a separate category. Jethro Tull won as best heavy metal band. Nothing against JT but come on, they didn't even use Gothic lettering on the album covers. That was... |
