Will there be stereos in Heaven? Cables?
Think I will probably be like Brulee and head off in the other direction where there will be the most perfect stereo system to satisfy every possible audiophile wish. Trouble is as I reach up to scratch my ear(s) I'll find them gone..!! Richard. 
Keeping cables off the floor
As Kitch29 states PVC is very susceptible to static charge and if you use uPVC pipe it is very important to ensure a good ground plane is incorporated. This is what we did with our own project. Not ensuring good grounding just defeats the whole id... 
Keeping cables off the floor
We carried out some prototype trials using 2" uPVC pipe with cables suspended in the center. The results were quite interesting. The project was aimed at a commercial application but we are not going to "run" with it so it would suit those who hav... 
PS Audio PP is adding noise to AC lines
Reckon you should contact PS Audio and tell them about the inteference you are experiencing from the PP300 as you should not be pushing "hash" back into the line or externally from RF emmissions. Regards, Richard 
Digital Smear???
I'll probably get "slammed" for saying this but here goes anyway! I think there are two sides to this story. As a small manufacturer we support dealers, as long as the dealer gives added value to the products he sells. I agree that dealers should ... 
Shop online from England !!
Shipping costs from the UK (England) to the USA are usually higher than US to UK. Depending on how quickly you want the item you can use the regular Parcel service which has different service price bands, the slowest can take up to 45 days! Their ... 
Red Rose or Audio Prism?
Mark Levinson incorporated Audio Prism into Red Rose Music and the amps are re-vamped and badged Red Rose now. The company is perfectly legitimate. Regards, Richard. 
What is the best AES/EBU?
AES = Audio Engineering Society and EBU = European Broadcasting Union. The AES/EBU part generally refers to a method of connection that uses 3 pin XLR connectors with 110 ohm shielded cable and signal levels around 5v (although the standard allows... 
AR turntable
http://www.merrillaudio.com should get you there, regards Richard 
I square S
Perhaps I should have written "separates the clock and data.." rather than "splits the clock and data.."???? regards, Richard. 
Amplifier Specs
Sorry, the above post was duplicated! Well, we are talking about "stereo" speakers here, yes? Richard.

You have to consider that speaker cones have a true damping that is determined by lots of factors, including the damping effect of the voice coil resistance. The amp impedence does not add much to the voice coil total resistance and in reality has...

I square S
I²S is a digital interface specification designed to reduce errors (jitter and suchlike) compared with the more common S/PDIF interface found on most equipment. The I²S interface splits the clock and data signals in an attempt to reduce errors, wh... 
Amplifier Specs
Hello Ken. There are many factors involved in determing "damping factor" and it depends on circuit design, so sometimes bigger is not always better. Damping factor is roughly the ratio of amp output impedence v speaker impedence. So if the amp is,...
