| Moving from 120 VAC to 220 VAC operation on Krell monoblocks Thank you ct0517 for your caution advice...I'm a certified electronic technician and got shocked by a few Kilovolts when trying to repair a tube-based spectrum analyser a few years ago. My wedding ring was too close to the high-voltage wire feedin... | |
| Moving from 120 VAC to 220 VAC operation on Krell monoblocks Hi Elizabeth,I’m all in with your comments and this is why I’m doing this. According to the MBL article, using 10 gauge wire is the first step to audio heaven and moving to 220 VAC is the second step.This is going to be a nice experience and looki... | |
| Moving from 120 VAC to 220 VAC operation on Krell monoblocks Started looking into Siemens 240 VAC/20 A circuit breakers. I may just go direct doing the 240 VAC mod, since the core of the work is rewiring the dedicated circuits to 10 gauge wire.Daniel | |
| Moving from 120 VAC to 220 VAC operation on Krell monoblocks Thank you Schubert for your accurate description of Canada. FYI, we will have our audio show in Montreal this weekend (Place Bonaventure hotel). With current USD/CAD exchange rate, our american friends should come visit our great city.Daniel | |
| Moving from 120 VAC to 220 VAC operation on Krell monoblocks Hi George,Thanks for the invite, but I love my Canada. Well, if your gear sounds better ‘down under’, good for you guys and say hello to Crocodile Dundee 😎 on my behalf. We get 220 VAC coming in the electrical box on 3 wires with two phases ( 2x11... | |
| Moving from 120 VAC to 220 VAC operation on Krell monoblocks Gee, was hoping to get more feedback on my post...Probably not too many Krell owners who went for 220 VAC operation. I will probably start re-wiring with 10 gauge and keep the operation at 120 VAC and see where it brings me. Once I have a better u... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! A few years ago I was using the Classe Audio DR-7 preamplifier in combination with their DR-9 power amp. The DR-7 was the top-of-the line Classe preamp at the time, and built as a 2 piece preamp (Power supply + preamp). I purchased an Audio Alchem... | |
| My Long List of Amplifiers and My Personal Review of Each! Whitecamaross, I’ve been following this thread since the beginning. Probably the best forum topic I’ve read in a long time. The Boulder/AR combo should be a world class pair IMHO. But how will you know if you do not test it? This mission you have ... | |
| Long distance between preamp and power amp I agree with randy-11, but please make sure your preamp is a true balanced design, so you will truly benefit from the amp replacement. Some preamp use chipsets to provide balanced connectivity without the noise reduction which a true balanced desi... | |
| Gold or Rhodium I have used both with great sound. The rhodium is somewhat more neutral to my ears. If you are going the GTX route, I would strongly suggest you also purchase the GTX aluminium backplate with 104 D stainless steel/carbon cover plate. This is what ... | |
| Acoustic Zen Silver Ref. II vs Absolute IC's I started using Acoustic Zen IC and speaker cables about 3 years ago. Started with AZ Silver Ref and ended up with the Absolute IC. Basically getting lower bass, increased mid/high frequency resolution and increased 3 D soundstage. Absolute no-bra... | |
| 2 Rel T7s or 1 Rel T9??? You will be better off with 2 smaller subs which will diminish low frequency room modes. For detailled explanations, read Floyd E. Toole 'Sound Reproduction'. | |
| Synergistic Research HFT are you using them? I have been using the HFT with significant improvements of my room acoustics. I purchased 2 boxes (5/box) and installed these devices as per SR instructions. Basically, it has transformed the acoustics of my dedicated audio room. Their acoustic ef... | |
