| How it works! From a common man. If only that WAS the end of the story. | |
| Schiit Freya + emits a high pitch squeal when using tube stage I own an "older unit" (original version) and it's quiet as a mouse with any tubes I use from my pile. This was simply a myth spread online about these preamps, as a few people (out of many happy campers) experienced issues. Of course you don't muc... | |
| Questions that Never Die Life is a magazine, and the Meaning of Life was a Monty Python movie. | |
| Millercarbon's Mega Vibration Control Journey I have Vibrapods here and there (and some older sorbothane pads under a CD player) and my system is clear as a bell. The pods keep things from sliding around...perhaps their greatest benefit...my Linn Basik does well with its large rubber cup feet... | |
| Tung Sol KT 170 My little Dennis Had Firebottle amp can use pretty most any power tube (except 300bs and a few others), although I'd possibly send him an email before trying 170s. He did tell me once (email) that 150s worked great in my amp, and they did. | |
| Klipsch Heresy iv...Your experience. One of my favorite things about the Heresy design is its unobtrusive nature relative to output, and I trust Roy Delgado on the floor placement because, hey, he designed them around that sort of placement. My new IVs are cherry so they're somewhat ... | |
| Fyne Audio - Anyone heard lf it? BASS...it's spelled BASS. | |
| Klipsch Heresy iv...Your experience. mijostyn...I’ve also owned a pair of great sounding Heresy IIIs for a few years so I know something about how these things work (I’m also a successful and vastly experienced professional live sound mixer and musician), and actually did try them on... | |
| Klipsch Heresy iv...Your experience. 2 dissimilar REL subs (Q108MK2, Q150e) both around 45 to 50 hz, which matches well with the Heresy IVs. | |
| Adding a sub woofer? I'm an "astute listener" and years ago added a REL Q150e which transformed my system...the adjustments on that REL are comprehensive for phase, level matching, and "crossover" matching, all easily done for excellent sound. Digital woofer control c... | |
| Klipsch Heresy iv...Your experience. I prefer Heresy speakers on the floor as designed, with Vibrapods and a matching fuzzy bottomed pad thing under the pods so I can move 'em easily. Imaging is astonishing with these things, and according to what I've read it's gonna take up to 500 ... | |
| Klipsch Heresy iv...Your experience. The mid horn in the IV is such a different design from the III...the IV is a far shorter driver throat attached directly to the Tractrix horn flare (with a little dust cap in there), where the III seem like a complicated long chamber throat with a... | |
| Am I out of my mind? #obsessed Guitar makers and repair guys often use Novus as I do. The 3 versions go from serious scratch therapy to a great sort of anti swirl mark polish. | |
| Adding a sub woofer? Regardless of Millercarbon's snarky condescension (per usual), RELs are NOT inherently "lumpy" unless set up badly, and a single one can work. Not everybody has room for a Swarm of four subs and many can get along with one well placed REL or anoth... | |
| Am I out of my mind? #obsessed Hit 'em with sandpaper and simply forget about the obsessive-compulsive polishing...steel wool...something...anything... |
