| Need help fixing a Linn Axis Brf, I would love to avoid shipping, but the local dealer has tried to fix it twice. Mofimadness... thanks for the referral. Spoke to Rick and he will look at it, but said it's only worth fixing if it's a simple fix. Said it may have reached it's ... | |
| Weak link Good riddance to that spkr output/adapter setup. With only a $400 preamp budget, start looking at the used stuff here and Audio Asylum Trader. | |
| Weak link yes, very strange there's no variable pre-out. maybe it's time to call Onkyo or the dealer. | |
| Weak link I believe that if u use the PRE OUT L/R into the Carver there will be a significant increase in the performance of your system. (Use quality RCA cables). That Carver amp will then give clean, detailed sound with tons of power. PREamp OUT would be ... | |
| Weak link Is this ur Onkyo?http://i.i.com.com/cnwk.1d/i/tim/2011/04/04/htrc360-rear_300x.jpg?tag=mncol;rvwBody | |
| Weak link It's not the Carver's fault...My A-500 always sounded good.Your Onkyo HT-RC360 is a receiver, right? You need the preamp voltage to drive the amp. I looked at a pic of ur Onkyo and there is a RCA PRE OUT, SUBWOOFER OUT and a LINE OUT for zone 2. O... | |
| Your best 2-channel system for 6000$ total I'll let others address your slanted ceiling, but my room is only 12' x 16' and the PSBs didn't sound right until they were 4' from rear wall, 8' apart, and listening position 8' from spkrs. An equilateral triangle. BTW, It took me about 2 months ... | |
| Your best 2-channel system for 6000$ total My PSB Synch's were also bright and forward. Spkr cable selection can integrate these speakers into the system. Also room treatments are very important. Much cheaper than buying new speakers. | |
| Your best 2-channel system for 6000$ total I agree with Tpreaves. First try a better CDP and definitely keep the Parasound. | |
| Cables in question Do your research, but a great cable is Canare 4S11...neutral sounding, tight bass, wide soundstage all at a low price. It's considered a "budget" cable but performs very well. Also look at Bluejeans Cable...another great performer at a low cost. I... | |
| Cables in question Look thru the archives for speaker cable info. You'll see all the debates about which cable is best. The answer to your question is yes, but you didn't mention what cables you are currently using. But you need to research what cable will be best f... | |
| Cleaning the equipment thanks for the replies. Elizabeth, your method sounds perfect for my needs, especially the paint brush idea. | |
| Cleaning the equipment may I ask the best way to clean out dust? In my case the amp is on the floor on risers. Always a layer of dust on the top every couple of days. | |
| Sunfire Signature... what is this? I own a Sunfire 300 and use both speaker outputs; VOLTAGE (traditional SS sound) to the woofers and CURRENT output to the tweeters. The current output is a more natural sound, for example, horns sound more realistic, less bright....but that's my t... | |
| Jolida JD100A I used the Agon archives to research this CDP. I auditioned the Cambridge 740c and the Jolida 100a. I chose the Jolida, not as detailed but very musical and great for classical and jazz. An excellent CDP for the money, but you should roll the tube... |
