| QUAD 99 CDP and Wright 3.5's output question Craig,The max output of the Quad 99 CDP is 2.4VRMS. Generally, anything 2VRMS or greater will drive an amp to full output power. However, I'm no expert, so take this with a grain of salt.Enjoy,TICTom In Cincinnati | |
| QUAD 99 CDP and Wright 3.5's output question Craig,I replied directly to your e-mail, but for the benefit of others, the Quad 99 CDP is a great player. The added benefit of a very good remote variable volume control and digital inputs is just "icing on the cake".I have used the Quad 99 CDP w... | |
| Wall mountable, Circular Transmission Line Speaker Well, I think I found it.http://www.cornu.de/en/minispir.htmlCheck it out! Anyone heard these?Thanks and Enjoy,TIC | |
| My spades are too small for speaker posts You may also want to use a caliper to determine the size of your binding post, then use a good high speed drill to widen the base of the "U" in the spade lug. This will make for a nice tight fit. However, you will need to insure that the "nut" on ... | |
| What is the one CD you can't find? OK, I'll tell!I'm looking for "Nick Lowe and Cowboy Outfit: The Rose Of England" on CD. I have the LP, but currently no turntable. I also have a cassette copy of my LP, but I really would like to have a nice copy of the CD.Enjoy,TIC | |
| High speed internet via electrical power lines Ed,It is already in use here in Cincinnati. We have a provider of BroadBand over PowerLines and it actually works very well. It was not offered as a trial or a pilot. It is full fledged, ongoing business AFAIK.I don't know how it may affect audio ... | |
| What is the one CD you can't find? Hummm,I don't think I want to tell this crowd! They may snap it up before I see it.I'm currently looking for one CD that I own on vinyl (no TT at the moment). It was a semi-popular release in 1985, but went OOP on CD. I've seen 3 examples sell on ... | |
| Older PURE CLASS-A Amplifiers Tpk123,You mentioned "older" amps, but the two Monarchy amps that you mentioned are still current products. You don't mention what speaker you will be using. The Monarchy Audio SM-70 or SM-70 Pro are only about 25-30 watts/channel in stereo mode. ... | |
| Moved from 2 channel to Home Theatre - Regrets? Hey Jack,I own the Quad 99 CDP and run it direct into a pair of Channel Islands VMB-1 monoblock amps and run a pair of Reference 3A MM DeCapo monitors. In the same room and on the same lowboy audio rack I have a multi-channel HT system consisting ... | |
| Sony S7700, S7000, or ??? best low cost transport? Audioengr,My 7700 was mod'd by one of the mod'rs mentioned in your post. It did not have bybees as far as I know. I bought it used, verified the mods with the original mod'r, but I did not pop the top on the unit to look around. Also, that was mor... | |
| What is PRaT Pace, Rhythm and timingI have heard it described as the ability of a system to make you want to tap your foot to the music. This does make sense to me as I've heard the same recording on different systems where one system had me struggling to list... | |
| Marantz 6000 OSE direct to amp? You could try something like an in-line 10db attenuator from Rothwell. It would lower the volume across the entire range of your volume control.Enjoy,TIC | |
| Help with a new TV please Swampwalker,You are correct, a good input signal is critical. I recently traded my old Scientific Atlanta Digital CATV set top box for a new unit from PACE. The PACE box provides a much better picture for me. SD looks good. I stretch it via "just ... | |
| Am I crazy - tube pre-amp with receiver?? The Cayin (TAD) does not have amp inputs. When used with an external pre-amp, you simply connect the pre-amp L&R outputs to one of the inputs on the Cayin (like the aux. input). The "pre-amp" section of the Cayin is actually passive and only h... | |
| Help with a new TV please Jon,I don't think you are going to be able to do this considering your budget. However, if you can spend a bit more, you can do pretty well. Personally, I had a similar space vs. picture quality dilemma and I chose the EDTV 42" Panasonic Plasma. I... |
