| Help Do I have fake van den Hul Mainsstreams? I wouldn't worry about them damaging your equipment and electrocuting you. That would be nearly impossible. | |
| Wherefore Belt Drive? Both the Dual changers and the decks had a springy suspension. | |
| Help Do I have fake van den Hul Mainsstreams? Do they sound fake? | |
| Wherefore Belt Drive? What about the old Dual idler drives? They were suspended. | |
| Anyone use 100v or 220v gear with a transformer? As usual those who disagree can't hear well enough to know the difference. I guess we are all very lucky not to afflicted with golden ears. There are many sound improving devices available that use transformers for isolation. The more filtering fr... | |
| Anyone use 100v or 220v gear with a transformer? Your power company uses step down transformers themselves. I use a tranformer with my Japanese laserdisc player which is 100v and have not had a problem in the five or six years I have used it. It sounds wonderful by the way. It really makes DVDs ... | |

| Do high level sub inputs really sound better? I have a Velodyne DD15 and it has it's own remote with volume and 5 presets. I used the microphone room tuning and seldom fool with it. | |

| "Warmer" high-powered amp/int stable w/ low load? The Sunfire is a dark sounding amp. | |
| Have I damaged my amp? You could start by checking for any blown resistors. | |
| Have I damaged my amp? Shorting is a different can of worms. The output transformer makes a tube amp see a contant load even when shorted most of the time. This is why a speaker selector uses a transformer for multible speaker connections. But no load at all is a proble... | |
| Have I damaged my amp? I disagree with Tarsando. Tube amps are never to be driven with no load on the outputs. | |
| Will an RCM make the Rice Krispies go away? Cleaning records will only make the noise sound cleaner. Some records are noisy when new because the manufacturer used crappy vinyl to begin with. |
