| Any one using 2 separate amps using a/b switch to same speakers? You're likely seeing mono block setups or biamping configuration when you see multiple amps. Every time I thought about swapping in a tube amp with a SS amp using a switch I had visions of blowing something up. | |
| Music similar to Mike Oldfield There aren’t many artists a lot like Mike Oldfield. The general genre of instrumental synth (including shadorne’s) suggestions) gets you the closest. Another suggestion is Larry Fast/Synergy. Some of Steve Hacket’s solo work. Some of Tangerine Dre... | |
| Monoblock amps and REL Series R Sub-Base Systems, Revisisted I run run a Rel Storm III with 2 mono blocks. It works great. This discussion came up earlier this year. You may want to search for that thread. | |
| Bluetooth Digital output to Lexicon MC-1 Pre-Pro followup . . . I found out that my optical will not work with the MC-1, but there's an ARC(HDMI) connector which is an HDMI out, so I will get the digital extractor you suggested and try it that way . . . | |
| Bluetooth Digital output to Lexicon MC-1 Pre-Pro Thanks, but my primary problem is getting audio for content that originates in the tv (smart tv). For other sources like dvd I can take digital directly from them. I’m still trying to debug my tv digital out, and may get it to work, but I thought ... | |
| Great Experience with Bill Thalmann @ Musical Technology (equipment repair) I’ve had Bill work on a few components. He’s the best in every way. | |
| Parasound HCA-2200 - Should I repair, or sell? I would be inclined to repair it. They sell for $600+, sometimes over $700, and that's the original, not the II. | |
| How to connect a subwoofer into a mono block system I have a Rel Storm III and run it off my mono blocks with fantastic results. I had to build a harness to connect to the amps which sit on the floor next to each speaker. That harness links to the speakon connector at a junction strip. It integrate... | |
| Displaying your stereo on Facebook Well, I don't do it because no one I know would be interested and many I know would roll their eyeballs.That said, If Audiogon didn't exist, Facebook would be a viable platform to share with audiophiles, and Facebook is far more private than Audio... | |
| Paypal issues through Audiogon I've had a few sales through audiogon recently and the PayPal link has been fine Afrikaans (no complaints from buyers), but the shipping has not worked at all. I had to use paypal's and fedex's sites for the shipping. I wasted a lot of time with ... | |
| Electron Kinetics Eagle 2 Repair Help I suspect eksc is a one man shop now and may be affected by vacations and the like. Russ always returned my calls and emails, sometimes taking a few days. If you can be patient he's great. I'm sure there are other shops that can repair it though... | |
| Electron Kinetics Eagle 2 Repair Help are you sure EKSC is out of bus? No mention of it on their web site. It's a real shame if true. If you can get Russ to work it over you'll be miles ahead. I would also recommend having it upgraded to an Eagle 2C' spec if you can spare the cash. | |
| B&K Sonata M200 + Polk Rti A9’s I have a pair of them (+ a single one I use as a center channel). I have had as many as 6 at one time. They are great sounding amps even ignoring the power and current output. I use them to drive Totem Mani 2's which themselves are very power hung... | |
| Stereo Guy - Need advice on HT integration it's your preamp that needs HT passthrough, not the HT Processor. What the Passthrough does is take your front L/R outs from your HT pre/pro into your stereo preamp which sends it to your front (Joule) amp. If your preamp doesn't have passthrough ... | |
| Wireless Transmitter/Receiver for Rear speaker in HT thanks TLS49. I had thought about that . . . and the quality would be better than either long speaker cables or wireless, but I still have to string wires through the ceiling which I'm trying to avoid. This may be where I land if I can't find a wi... |
