| Setting up my subwoofer Use the balanced from preamp to amp, and unbalanced for the subwoofer, or vice versa, depending on what the sub has for inputs. Best,E | |
| Treated my interconnects with Deoxit D5 today At any rate, the former splendor of my system has now returned and I am hearing just what I heard before my connection-cleaning foray. Go figure. Erik was exactly right. Thanks again for the input from you wise fellows. Thanks for the kind words. ... | |
| Back to the drawing board Yep, great subwoofer integration is amazing. You don't need a very expensive sub, but you do need great configuration. | |
| Pono was the best SS headphone amp I ever heard Sadly neither the Codex nor Stax are good candidates for "music on the go" Best,E | |
| DSPeaker Anti-Mode 2.0 issue Well, if it really IS you then it's probably static. Try taking your shoes off, first. :) But wow, I have never heard of any modern piece of electrical kit that could detect your presence 2 feet away! That's messed up. E | |
| DC Offset Blocker/Killer - where to buy in the USA I can understand McIntosh not wanting to change their gear based on frequency of events. However you should also get a full refund if it does not perform normally in your home.Best,E | |
| Is there a Northern and Southern California Sound You know, I don't think this is about where the speakers are made, but I've sensed a trend in dealer preferences. Could be just me. Best,E | |
| Pono was the best SS headphone amp I ever heard @tpreaves2 I went with a Fiio. Much better UI, size and expandability. But damn, the Pono's handling of headphones was something else. Best,E | |
| Modifying Philharmonic 3 crossovers How about one type of caps for the tweeter and one type for midrange? I'd recommend all series caps be the same. Because parallel caps are not directly in line, and often much larger and more expensive, that is where you may want to do some cost... | |
| DC Offset Blocker/Killer - where to buy in the USA Get a multi meter and stick probes one into the neutral the other into the phase and measure for DC mV, and that’s what I did. I am not going to do anything more than what they suggested. That’s pretty smart. :) I never thought of that, as I was w... | |
| Cable recommendation for Krell & Vandersteen Make your own. Highly recommend the Connex pure silver interconnect, shielded cables from Parts Connexion, along with Neutrik connectors from Parts Express. Best,E | |
| Saint-Sean’s 3rd Symphony I’m wondering if others have experienced that situation in the majority of recordings of this symphony’s 2nd movement, or do I have to start getting some room treatment.I have no problems with bass in any other recordings. If you are going to... | |
| graphene again Neat, but it is not anywhere near room temperature! The cool part about the article is how the alignment of two sheets of atom thick carbon change behavior. At fractions of a degree above absolute zero. | |
| The Future of Audio Amplification Eric you've tried numerous threads to get this Class-D "praising thing" on a roll, never to keep going, because of the "non acceptance" by way too many for you to counter. Give it up be happy with yours, that you say you can't hear any problem... | |
| Modifying Philharmonic 3 crossovers Sorry Jonny,In the first schematic of this page:https://speakermakersjourney.blogspot.com/2016/02/crossover-basics.htmlAll components are in series with the drivers. In the second, I added a coil (L2) which is in parallel with the driver. For the ... |
