Thiel Owners I was once asked a question " can you hear it " ?I've discovered that many times I didn't hear it until I was not hearing it ! | |
Thiel Owners Thank You andy2Great resource , added to my bookmarks .Rob | |
Thiel Owners I've used Cardas posts in the past on a Carver amp ,but they don't make ones with mechanical connections like Tom is recommending .This will be one of the somethings that I will have to make a decision on , as you know from experience the dollars ... | |
Thiel Owners Thanks GeorgeI think one reason I was hesitent to start the speaker project is COST .Thank you TomI wasn't clear , I was meaning from speaker post to xo boards ," WBT-0710Ag nextgen passivated pure silver posts... $398/set of four "from Michael Pe... | |
Thiel Owners Tom and beetleYou guys are the greatest and are stimulating me to start the speaker project earlier , like after ThanksGiving .The info you are giving me ( and all Thiel owners ) is priceless and knowing you are willing to offer such great advise ... | |
Thiel Owners Thank you TomI haven't taken the speakers out yet , not until I start the crossovers upgrad project .To answer beetemania's question and maybe more insight into the issue.When playing the IBE cd louder than normal something vibrating making a nois... | |
Thiel Owners Wow Thanks beetlemaniaNone yet , that project will begin right after New Year .Still working on the amp , 32 caps and 3 resistors with 2 resistors and 4 recitifiers going in next week end leaving just 10 more caps and 8 resistors to go .I doing th... | |
Thiel Owners Thank you jon-5912 and brayeagle I feel relieved and I to have only heard it with the test CD .I'll be running it again next week when I replace the recitifiers on the amp that are faster and have a softer recovery . | |
Thiel Owners Vibrations from Both speakers at low hz , could it be the wires ?I have a CD called Irrational, But Efficacious! by Ayre and Cardas .I play this as break-in sound every time I've installed new components on my amp project. The CD has a track cal... | |
Goldring - Audio Note - Roksan ? yogiboyThank you and I agree with you kind of ,a new/different amp with 1V input sensitivity would be the directionthat I would go , but for now a higher output from the cartridge is the most economical way to go .Interestingly my CD player has a... | |
Goldring - Audio Note - Roksan ? yogiboyI am not looking for higher volume , but more reserve when bass pushes the speakers down to 2 ohms .Rob | |
Goldring - Audio Note - Roksan ? Thank You yeti42My amps impedance is 100k ( standard or most common ? ) .I looked up chakstr's phono stage , using rca outputs it's output voltage is fixed at 1V , balanced is 4V ! My phono stage output is only .8V .I've discovered that Goldring m... | |
Goldring - Audio Note - Roksan ? chakstrI have to say Thank You , your answer cause me to ask questions .Do I need an active preamp ? if so why ?So I,ve been researching #s , my amp would like 2 volts imput and I am only giving it .8Vwith moving up to a higher output cartridge i... | |
Goldring - Audio Note - Roksan ? Thank You stereo5I've read some good things about ANs cartridge but there doesn't seem to be a lot of them out there .chaksterI don't know what phono stage you are using but it must have one hell of a gain factor.At 1kHz, the gain through the MM i... | |
