| Low Voltage on Circuit Hey Sean, what's the power consumption in your BIG rig?!! :-) | |
| Best band never to release a truly great album? Trey, I'm afraid you're gonna have to make your case why, if you don't consider Now!, Out of Our Heads, December's Children, Beggar's Banquet, Let it Bleed, or Sticky Fingers (and possibly even 12 X 5, Aftermath, Exile on Main Street, or Some Girl... | |
| Resonance Problem I think I've been seconded and thirded...Fore!! :-) | |
| Greatest American Rock and Role Bands of ALL Time But then you wouldn't get to see those great "American" bands as much... | |
| Best band never to release a truly great album? Bomarc, I thought of The Yardbirds, but they actually did release what I consider to be a great album in Britain, "The Yardbirds" (aka "Roger the Engineer"), but like a lot of British invasion acts, their original releases got chopped up and re-gl... | |
| Low Voltage on Circuit 5 amp, 600 watt is not enough. 15 amps might be minimum, 20+ is better, for wattage look on the rear panels or in the manuals of all your gear and add up the draw. 600 may be enough for the sources, but not for the power amps too. | |
| Best band never to release a truly great album? Rosstaman, all on your list (w/the exception of BBA, whom I don't care about anyway - sorry!) released quite great ablums, IMHO ("great" not meaning flawless, which doesn't apply in artistic endeavors). Just what don't you like about "Seconds of P... | |
| Low Voltage on Circuit Take a look at the ExactPower website for an interesting-looking solution that's not as monstrous as the big Power Plants, and won't add a transformer's resistance to the line. Never heard this product in action myself, though. Best of luck! :-( | |
| What is the minmimum room size for Magnepan? In my experience as regards the durability question, the models you are asking about, which do not have the true ribbon tweeter, are rather impervious to overload damage. The panels will become distorted-sounding if you push the volume too high (e... | |
| How do you get the "real" feel of music? Bear is of course talking about dynamic range in his first paragraph, and how if you were to use an expander on a lot of the compressed and limited material available, you would wind up with quieter "quiets" for a majority of the playing time. But... | |
| What is the range of human hearing? So Rzado your last point could indicate that the inner ear might not be the only region on the human body which can be stimulated by high-frequency sound waves. This of course is already known to be the case for low-frequency waves. This if true c... | |
| Greatest American Rock and Role Bands of ALL Time Anth0456, aren't you Australian? | |
| Need inexpensive amp help and questions on Hype If you are fairly certain that you prefer the Maggie sound and will want to upgrade to the 1.6's in the future, then save yourself some hassle later on and buy something now that will drive the bigger speakers when you get them. Frankly, if you he... | |
| What is the range of human hearing? But Rzado, isn't it true that any effects of the overtones you're refering to may be because of their intermodulation products within the audible band, or their impact on the performance of the test equipment used? | |
| Resonance Problem As far as I know, 12g qualifies as a medium-mass arm, and since it falls within the range that you say Grado recommends for this cart, this doesn't seem like a mis-match. I don't know how you are estimating or measuring the frequency of the observ... |
