| Best way to dampen a micro-vibrating Printed Circuit Board inside an amp? Thanks! @mylogic - +1 for your powers of recall/association. Now you mention it, yes - I do indeed remember that discussion. Let's see if we find out this time. I note that it has a PCB, so all the point to point wired tube amp owners can rest easy in t... | |
| Best way to dampen a micro-vibrating Printed Circuit Board inside an amp? Thanks! @mylogic. RIP Brian Wilson. I'm glad you took my comments in the spirit they were intended. I'm pickin' up good micro vibrations, she's giving me micro excitations - doesn't have quite the same ring to it... | |
| Best way to dampen a micro-vibrating Printed Circuit Board inside an amp? Thanks! My friends don't call me TonyYaYa for nuttin:)) | |
| Best way to dampen a micro-vibrating Printed Circuit Board inside an amp? Thanks! @OP. Fill the amp with a plastic bag full of lead shot. | |
| whatsbestforum - what's going on I've listened to the larger Clarysis speakers at the Munich High End show. They sound superb and are beautifully built. They are not over priced for what they are especially considering the number of neodymium magnets required. They have all the g... | |
| Seeking Advice to Improve My Audio System ($1000 Budget) @OP Carlyleciv - To answer your question about preamps in simple terms: the preamp is the part of the amplification chain that takes the input signals, allows switching between them and volume control, and passes the signal to the power amp, which... | |
| ??? Are Manufacturers Killing Our Hobby ??? Its a "glut" of manufacturers but it's not responsible for damaging sales. | |
| Pass Labs XA-25 vs XA-30.8 amplifier @OP. From personal experience, Passlabs products are extremely reliable. As Dynamiclinearity says above, the number in the amps' name is the Class A power output. Hi-Fi News magazine has just reviewed the 30.8. The concluding line is "It's a per... | |
| Clone DarTZeel amps? Even if a clone manufacturer were to produce a genuine clone, they haven't paid for the R&D and the IP that is embodied in the original, or the marketing and other overheads required to establish and support a brand. But even accounting for th... | |
| Ikea Mittzon; Ikea does it again. https://www.ikea.com/mx/en/manuals/mittzon-acoustic-screen-floor-standing-gunnared-beige__AA-2536537-1-100.pdf Here's the frequency chart. In Europe at least, GIK make gobos for pretty much the same price. | |
| Best amplification for Magico S3 newer version on your experience @OP. In my experience, the 509 does not sound as powerful as its rated specification suggests. You could try a Pass Int 250 for comparative purposes. If nothing else, it will demonstrate that not all competently designed amplifiers sound the same. | |
| Room Acoustics and Speaker Placement @hilde45 If you look at the OP's pictures from a previous post, it will make more sense. @OP - the numbers you quote look accurate and confirm what your pictures show, namely, that if you leave a reasonable distance from the right hand side wall ... | |
| Room Acoustics and Speaker Placement @OP - Understood, thanks. (Mrs) probably won't be rushing to apply acoustic treatment but you will need some as the space is going to be very reflective otherwise. | |
| Room Acoustics and Speaker Placement @OP The photos re helpful. Perhaps you could give consideration to relocating your dining area and placing the speakers on the wall in the picture that is marked "dining". The other two locations have very little width to accommodate speakers. | |
| Room Acoustics and Speaker Placement Number two is the better of the setups. You might get some unwanted ambient sound from the dining room in setup 2 but that's better than having the speakers in, effectively, two different acoustic environments as in option one. |
