| Is Bi - amping worth the trouble? Well, in all honesty you might just be best off finding a more liquid sounding Preamp instead of neutral dark and punchy.. The bats are very good, but most of the stuff I listened to them with were on the more Damped sounding speakers like Dynaudi... | |

| Is Bi - amping worth the trouble? Blindjim, you want a plug and play? Cheapest possible? Here you go, simply run your BAT on the Mid / High section.. Remove the jumpers of course on the speakers, and By a CROWN K series digital Pro power amp, it has about 1k watts per channel so y... | |

| Setting anti-skate Okay, I was just experimenting and only tested the headers on like 2 albums with the added anti-skate, but don't worry I made sure it was not pulling the cantilever back at all.. I have the recommended digital stylus gauge made by micro tech, so I... | |
| Setting anti-skate Maybe you guys could answer my question.. I don't have the most accurate arm in the world, however the only use for anti-skate I have found is not to fix any sound issues cause I don't seem to have any, but the Leader blank track of the album when... | |

Only reason I even started in with the jensens is they were available... | |
| Let's build a subwoofer interconnect You will have ZERO benefit from Super connectors in this application unless you are looking for audio jewelry... The 80 hz signal going to a Sub I don't care what people try to prove or you try to prove to yourself, will be near impossible to hear... | |
| Modwright SWL 9.0SE Preamplifier I believe the unit is not Traditionally what would be Tube sounding is all, but its a very solid real sounding unit. Kinda like BAT or Audio research stuff, they don't have that Halo of tube flavor around them.. So I would guess they fall between ... | |
| Is Bi - amping worth the trouble? That speaker is not that large, and may not need tons of current for very satisfying listening levels.. The advantage of bi-amp is too balance out a top heavy speaker for the most part, loaning an entire channel to take on the bass drivers to reli... |
