| can magnepan mg II a's have Pull out the jumpers on the back of the crossovers and clean them off.Make certain they are in the correct slots.(I have Maggie IIb's so I am hoping yours are the same in the back on the crossover/banana plug panel) | |
| The music companies do something wrong Yes, completely agree!!!I stopped buying CeeDees, and started buying USED vinyl.As far as I am concerned the big music industry can go to "H".Clearly the music industry got some crazy idea after CeeDees started, and nearly everyone bought all the ... | |
| Help using Caig cleaning products Agree on USE SPARINGLY!!!The cleaner is ok to use whatever way you want, but the others should be used only to coat the items with an invisible coating. If you can see it glistening wet, that is way too much to leave on, and that 'extra' will turn... | |
| How Dedicated Must a Dedicated Circuit Be? The light bulb is actually a GOOD THING!It acts as a grunge filter. Best if before the rest of the stuff, in parallel to the equipment.Just like the expensive grunge removers, except it is basically FREE, as one NEEDS some light... | |
| Can I plug an amp into my Chang Conditioner Do it and see.The audible problem usually is that the amp's sound becomes 'thin'. Too restrictive a conditioner (in my system) gives greater clarity and definition in the bass, but it also begins to be 'thin' sounding.Vs the 'wooley' sound of thic... | |
| Upgrade guidance none given on the amp forum Agree with Albertporter.I could only say the change you wish to know: "will it be worth it, will it make enough of a difference" My gut feeling is no, it is not enough of a difference to be worth spending the money. However that is NOT an expert o... | |
| Should I add a DAC ? Do not add a DACRemember that the cable connecting the CD and DAC will also cost you at least a $100.The whole idea is not worth it.Save the cash and do something better with it.(Do you have a power conditioner for the CD?) | |

| Pre-Amp Problem Opinions Please Auto mute is self created by the equipment as a protection at turn-on. It SHOULD drop off as soon as the equipment is stabilized... maybe it is a relay? and is sticky? (My friends Marantz has such and it IS a mechanical relay in hers)Definitly wou... | |
| Pre-Amp Problem Opinions Please Also if you NEVER turned it on in all those years, some of your caps may be damaged... Try cleaning the volume control first though.Even if stuff is not connected and just sitting, it should be powered up at least once a year? to keep the caps in ... | |
| Pre-Amp Problem Opinions Please The volume control is just dirty.If your are not handy with stuff, ask a techi friend to clean the volume control. Radio Shack would have a spray cleaner if yours is suitable for that sort of cleaner.A long time to sit and get grunge on it.A faste... | |

| New Stereophile format Noted that indeed indeed the mag is shrinking.Too many reviews and magazine covers of ONE BRAND of equipment is my guess as to why advertisers have disappeared.Let that be a warning.Suicide by review!!!Who cares what the design of the printed mag ... | |
| Should there only be one company making gear? ONE item that is part of the reproducing chain that we just accept as is AIR.Free, and comes in several trillion different scents, but basically the same.Get yours now(the sound waves gotta get to your ear...) | |
