Where shall I begin?I PERSONAALY think this clever little clock is totally hype.A rip off. It is for the weak minded and the rich who wish to play with other folks minds.The value of this clock in my opinion is zero.This clock is a travesty of mar... 
Can I hook up two amps to the same speaker?
Any audiophile approved speaker cable can be used with the switches.BUT, you would need to have some 'extra' wire of the same type. (a few feet would do.)Locate your 'switchboxes' right up close up to the speaker, one behind each speaker.The dpdt ...

Please someone comments on Trimax 807 amplifier
You want a comment:I never heard of them either, let alone hear them play.Obscure stuff is very hard to judge, and harder still to know about longevity, resale, warranty... etc 
How can I learn how to fix equipment
Buy a pile of broken stuff.Rip it apart and see if you can fix it!Get some basic books and tools.If you have NEVER done anything like this already, you should think twice about this. (unless you are under 21 years old.)

Can I hook up two amps to the same speaker?
don't run them straight in.If you put a pair of dpdt(double pole, double throw) switches in between, and the center pole is the wires going to the speaker terminals, one side of the switches is one amp, the other sides the other. fine.

Is this typical Service?
The original boxes are a MUST if you expect UPS or any company to fork out damages.The original boxes may be availble from the company for a fee.The cost of looking at equipment is expensive.I say "DO NOT FIX WHAT ISN'T BROKEN"If you send it...The...

Who is a big high end cable manufacturer
Before 1980 cables cost max $100 or so.Now one can find several that top $15,000.The hype about cables is that they make a difference.I say spending that same cash on better equipment in the first place is a far better investment. (and using modes...
