| Power cord? Why? sean...what do you mean "staggered"? My "stack" is HOT/NEUT/HOT/NEUT/HOT/NEUT/ | |
| source disappointment I used a Panasonic XP50 for a while and thought that its sonic performance was excellent. (And it is pretty). My only gripe was that it doesn't do SACD's. You must remember that D/A technology has advanced greatly in the last few years, largely as... | |
| Advice on MM/MC phono pre-amp please. Improper (not as designed) loading of the pickup will probably affect its sonic qualities (eg: frequency response) as well as volume. There is no risk of damage.I have not seen the schematic of the Accuphase amplifier, but I don't think you can al... | |
| optical or coaxial audio cable? Nrenter...It defaults to the analog signal that is designated for the same input selection as the digital signal. In my case I have Coaxial and 2-CH Analog DVD signals assigned to VIDEO 2, which I have labeled "DISC". If I play a regular CD, the d... | |
| Power cord? Why? sean...3 Hot, 3 Neutral, stacked and twisted as a stack. I am using a 3 prong plug and I have a ground wire connected, but since the original design had no ground wire on the power line (there is a separate grounding lug on the chassis) this condu... | |
| Power cord? Why? sean...the wire has been twisted...six strands of #12, solid core, thin teflon insulation, with heavy duty plug on the end. It may be a while until I get the test run. When it happens I will report results in a new post. | |
| Could This Be Your Next Power Conditioner? The least expensive and most reliable way to "get off the grid" would be to use a small motor/generator set. Usually these are used to generate DC power from a 110VAC line (for example 400VDC which some military equipment uses), but there is no re... | |
| Best method for 2 sets of speakers from 1 system? Best bet would be to pick up a second power amplifier, in the $200 to $300 range, for the outdoor speakers. You would not have any issue of low impedance with two speakers connected in parallel, and the outside system would be decoupled from the i... | |
| Power cord? Why? sean...I don't think that I need such a good power cord now that I am operating on my cold fusion electric generator. | |
| Power cord? Why? I bet that someone buys them! | |
| Perfect Pitch? Pbb....You should hear a song by the 1960's British comic duo Swann and Flanders. The song is "Song of Reproduction" the second cut on Angel LP 35797 (mono) titled "At the Drop of a Hat", which was the name of their Broadway show. They made one ot... | |
| Perfect Pitch? There is an interesting story about pitch..perfect or otherwise. At one time the internationally accepted standard for pitch was... middle A as played by the Vienna Opera. This developed into an international fracas because the Vienna musicians tu... | |
| optical or coaxial audio cable? Nrenter...See page 25 of the ROTEL 1066 owners manual."If no digital signal is present the unit will automatically revert to the analog input".That's the way mine works. Try this:1. Connect coax and analog to an input.2. On the OSD, select coax. T... | |
| optical or coaxial audio cable? Nrenter..Is that display the "active" input or the "selected" (by setup process) input? | |
| Rotel RSP 1066? Nrenter...How do I know what my Firmware/software Rev is, and what the latest Rev is? Do you have a description of what the various SW changes accomplished so I can tell if I care? |
