| Fully Automatic Tables Sony PS X800 was a direct drive linear tracking table with Biotracer (servo'd) arm. Was never cheap (roughly $1000 way back then). A technical tour-de-force. Multiple microprocessors. They must have sold it at a loss. Superb performance. Not "audi... | |

| HELP Best way to ship 160 lbs. speaker? Furniture movers are an option. | |
| Anyone ever drive active speakers from speaker out All you need is four resistors. A subwoofer amp for which I have a schematic shows the Hot speaker signal loaded by 100 ohms 2 watts to ground, and a 330K 1/4 watt resistor from the speaker signal to the low level input of the amp. In this subwoof... | |
| What other obsessions do you have? I am a recreational aircraft pilot. And you thought that High End Audio was expensive! | |
| Damping Vibration - Friend or Foe? Bright_star_audio...The "motors" that actively damp vibration of the platform are piezo devices. The weight placed on the table does not affect its performance. There is a manual adjustment for loading, so as to get the electronic system centered ... | |
| Damping Vibration - Friend or Foe? Bright_star_audio...Thanks for the info.The isolation table we used is not pneumatic. It is purely electronic, using piezoelectric motors. The construction is of stainless steel (nonmagnetic). The model we bought is good for a load of about 60 pou... | |
| Damping Vibration - Friend or Foe? Bright_star_audio...You can edit until someone answers.Disclaimer...I am a skeptic about vibration control, except for phono turntables.At work we required an absolutely vibrationless surface to put a pool of mercury that we used to get a perfectl... | |

| Remarkable Multichannel Test Signal Atagi...I got mine from elusivedisc.com or acousticsounds.com. I don't remember which one. | |
| One big subwoofer or two weaker subwoofers? Sean...I guess that QTS is the parameter I had in mind, although as the writup suggests, it does not reliably describe vented/sealed suitability . The JBL 1500 QTS is 0.32, not far from the 0.4 suggested as the boundry between vented and sealed. I... | |
| One big subwoofer or two weaker subwoofers? Thanks Sean....I have copied the info so I can read it at leisure. This appears to be the best definition of TS parameters that I have ever seen. What I am looking for is some kind of single dimensionless number (like Bernoulli's number that relat... | |
| Optical Toslink splitter Isellstuff...What you describe would be an active (powered) device, and would cost more than "several" dollars. I think that Partsexpress.com has such a device. They also have a manually actuated optical switch. It would be used if your amp had to... |
