| The Best Compliment You've Gotten On Your Rig? WOW- It's like we're THERE!(From a fellow live-music lover) | |
| Hafler DH-200 & Nakamichi PA-5 for bi-amping? Hopefully, the sensitivity(voltage in/power out)is matched, between the amps. The only way you'll know which sounds better(which amp for which driver) is to try it for yourself. Happy experimenting. | |
| Hafler DH500 vs Newer Integrated Amp/Class D? Before you make any comparisons: Your DH-500 is over 25 years old. Replacing the electrolytic power supply filter caps and the two electrolytic input(C1)caps(here with polypropylenes), will make a major difference in it's presentation. These simpl... | |
| Hafler 220a That's correct Mofi- K for kit and A for assembled. I was the Hafler dealer in Winter Park, Florida, when they first got rolling. My customers always had me do the assembly, with my little tweeks added. I miss Dynaco & Hafler both. Of course- ... | |
| How to avoid being scammed? I've dealt with those in Asia, in the past. Always felt Western Union was the safest/easiest/fastest: ( http://www.westernunion.tw/en/location_search.php ) As you can see; they have a number of sites in Taiwan. The buyer would have no excuse not t... | |
| Laying it on the line Most garrulous! | |
| Magnepan Service HORRIBLE??? I'm not trying to be contentious(at all), but- I wouldn't expect FEDEX to be willing to pay for anything beyond the repair costs. If they do; consider yourself to have been MAJORLY blessed! | |
| Cap life span? I guess I've replaced WAY too many electrolytics, in power amps, Leslies, Tubed Organs and speaker systems, pro and home(for myself as well as customers), to buy into some the above statements. | |
| Cap life span? If you look at the datasheets of aluminum electrolytic caps; you'll find that their expected life spans are noted in hours, at a certain temperature. Some datasheets even list an expected shelf-life. These sites each mention different ways caps ag... | |
| Do you believe in Magic? Any or all, of the first three, can make your music seem louder(and vice versa). | |
| HELP FedEx Mangles Speakers - Refuses Claim You just GOTTA love these gorillas! Don't even get me started, with the experiences I've had with the Post Orifice! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoMSICZjPLQ&feature=related)(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqryzEbsRBE&feature=related)(ht... | |
| Hafler DH300 Monoblock forever? Whatever differences you find, between the quiet 200, and your new project: duplicate them. It would appear that the amp has been modified by someone that shouldn't have. Follow the DH-200 manual, and rebuild the amp to it's proper configuration. ... | |
| Another cheater plug thread When I was an early teen; someone told me a metal cutting carbon arc could be created, using a pencil and 120V cheater wire. I tried it with a power cord, alligator clips, #2 pencil and a crosscut file. I was sitting on concrete block, with the fi... | |
| Hafler DH300 Monoblock forever? If the jacks are isolated from the chassis, try grounding one, just to see what happens, Be certain to ground the terminal that contacts with the barrel of the 1/4" plug and not the tip. Only connect that channel, with your pre. Should be a simple... | |
| Another cheater plug thread Yes- There IS a risk(indubitably); IF you happen to be grounded, when in contact with the hot side of a 120V AC circuit(or two hots of 240V single phase/any two hots of 3 phase). You HAVE to be the completion of a circuit, for current to flow. Gra... |
