| Speaker cables for Martin Logan Montis I have not tried this so I can't speak from experience. Remember, low inductance with a resulting high capacitance cable is what is needed for dynamic loudspeakers, since they are inductive and have low impedance at low frequencies. In general... | |
| Need Receiver Help: High Quality Ampification & DAC, Digital input to Zone 2, Older is OK Hmmm, I think there is a better way to do what you want to do. You only need one DAC and I believe that Onkyo should put the analog output onto its preamp output jacks in the back. If so, you can just pipe analog to the second system. | |
| Anyone had the equipment customized ? Yes; kinda, maybe, sort of. Being a electrical design engineer, I design a log of amplifiers and analog control electronics at work. So naturally, I do this at home with some of my equipment. For a while, I was doing custom electronic design f... | |
| Volume Control for second set of speakers Nope, that won't work, you are switching power, not line level signals. What would work, is to use the line level outputs from your amp, feed it into the volume control unit you found, and hook up another amp for speakers B. Not what you wante... | |
| Upgrade advice from old Cardas Quadlink 5 RCA Interconnects I'd call the manufacturer and start there. For cables, to me it has been try it and see if it works. | |
| Need advice for a beginner. I did that when we lived in the previous house, which was much smaller and I had the home theater and stereo in the same room. I used a preamp with the high end power amps for the stereo and a home theater receiver for the home theater system. ... | |
| Micro Seiki BL-111, how good is it ? I have a RX1500 along with the outboard motor and vacuum options. I am very pleased with it and see no need to replace it with a newer unit. Personally, I think it is good enough to run with the newer big buck units. Keep in mind that this is... | |
| Sansui 4000 I suspect any MM cartridge would work just fine. Receivers are designed to be pretty general and not fussy. Any speaker whose power requirements are about half to a third of what the power rating of the receiver should work okay. Don't let t... | |
| Review: Fosi Audio stereo rca interconnect One can't go wrong with that! Nice! | |
| MC suggestions Well, I have used Grado cartridges for a long time now. I have a Grado arm, so my comments may not apply since that combination is pretty hard to beat. I have a second arm on my TT and I have had numerous cartridges in it - Shure's, Denon's, AT... | |
| i bought a dodcool dac from china? I say just trust your ears. In general, any DAC is better than no DAC since without a DAC, you have no digital music! Whether you want to listen to it long term is a question, however. | |
| Orthos Spectrum AR-2000 Power Requirements When you get it, check the line voltage requirements in the manual. It might specify 115VAC rather than 100VAC. If so, you can plug it directly into USA power. If not, you should get a step up autotransformer. Send me a private note and I c... | |
| AC mains noise Borrowed noise sniffer and tested my AC lines... @erik_squires: I am not sure I understand your comment about "selling that"? Do you seriously want to define line harmonics as noise? They are generated by loads, such as AC units and refrigerators. In the typical harmonic frequency range at ... | |
| AC mains noise Borrowed noise sniffer and tested my AC lines... @erik_squires: Actually, when monitoring noise, one cannot include 60 Hz since that voltage will swamp everything. It has to be filtered out along with most of the harmonics from inductive loads. Those lower frequency inductive harmonics of 60... | |
| I need some USB educat’in Well, as you found out, it isn't in the specs, it's a phone call to the manufacturer or, at least, the dealer. I have a BS Node 2 and a Vault 2. I haven't tried it but the Vault 2 might handle a larger drive. The big drive is on my PC and fu... |
