| a resonance in my left ear You may have some kind of mechanical issue with your left ear. Try humming different tones to get an idea. I don't know exactly how to describe this, but don't just hum casually. When you hum try directing the energy toward your ears so you hea... | |
| Are new Mark Levinson Preamps better than old? I have not compared the 380 to the 380S so I can't comment on sound differences. I have fully recapped my preamp about eight years ago. Considering the unit's age and enclosed chassis a recap at this time is advised. | |
| Are new Mark Levinson Preamps better than old? I was using a 380S for nearly 20 years with great satisfaction. I recently replaced it with a Primaluna Evo 400 which I find superior in the qualities of sound stage and musicality. The only function I miss on the 380S is the ability to fine tun... | |
| Issue with Krell KSA-250 The problem is probably the transformer drawing a lot of current. Are the heat sinks getting hot fast? | |
| Power adapter/supply for Mirage LFX-3 crossover I think the reason for the 2V discrepancy is once the transformer is loaded down the secondary voltage drops to near 16. If you decide to go with a higher rated transformer it should be closer to 16V. | |
| I want to give away my Audio Research D-52 I would pay to have it shipped to me. | |
| Krell KBL Static in Right Channel Most likely you have a bad solder joint in the unit. | |
| Mark Levinson 380S On my unit if you turn the volume all the way down for any input the display indicates OFF (same is true when first turning it on). Turning the volume up increases it. If turning the volume up does not increase volume then you may have a softwar... | |
| Mark Levinson 380S Have you tried just turning up the volume? | |
| testing a crossover The correct formula for two resistors in parallel is Rt = r1 X r2 /(r1+r2) | |
| Inexpensive Magnepan simple DIY modification to increase overall depth/sound clarity I apologize if I came off a little harsh, but it does not make sense to spend money to fix a problem when eliminating the cause is so much more effective. This is a little like getting a splinter and using all kinds of dressings and pads to minim... | |
| Inexpensive Magnepan simple DIY modification to increase overall depth/sound clarity This mod is nonsense. You want a free and far superior one - just bypass the cheap attenuator block internally. Very easy to do and obvious when you remove the back plate. | |
| Who does Krell KSA-150 rebuilds/recapping ?? My experience with Krell service was not good. If you have older equipment pre Dan departure you are probably on your own. | |
| Help - Phono stages dying!! I am not familiar with the design of the VPI Prime, but the problem seems more likely (than static discharge) to be some intermittent contact between the right channel ground and an AC hot chassis. | |
| FUSES, Finally!? If you want to perform a free short term experiment to determine if fuses can make a difference, take a small piece of heavy gauge wire or metal and bridge the fuse holder. Your equipment of course will not be protected during the test but the li... |
