| Specs for JVC M-L10 power & P-L10 pre Here's what i could find out about these pieces. Hope this helps you in some way.M-L10 was rated at 160 wpc @ 8 ohms with no specs given for 4 ohm loads. Power Bandwidth ( which is different from frequency response ) was rated at 20 Hz to 20 Khz a... | |
| Difference between Forte 4 and 4A amp ? Thong, i had to laugh when i initially saw your name ( Sas quach ) tied to this thread. Given my email address ( bigfoot1 ) and my liking of these amps, i found it to be too much of a coincidence.As to the bottom end of this amp, i don't think tha... | |
| DIY Cat 5 speaker cables.... George, what is the difference between the 5E and standard CAT5 ? I know that the plenum uses a different insulation on the wires themselves. As to using these cables, most of the "DIY" designs suggest removing the outer jacket and simply twisting... | |
| Looking for Tuner/Preamp combo Eric, i don't see any problem with using an older AV tuner / preamp for a "whole house" type of system. The reason that i say this is that you're not going to be able to get the ultimate in fidelity due to the length of wire runs and (probably) th... | |
| How BIG is yours? I've got about 500 CD's and 1000 LP's. I would have TONS more vinyl but suffered through a house fire several years back. Needless to say, records do not take well to intense heat.As to which i'd rather spend my money on, it has been rather lopsid... | |
| Difference between Forte 4 and 4A amp ? Your statements are completely valid and thanks for the clarification. I'm sorry if i came across as belittling. While i would agree that none of the Forte's are "bass masters" and have previously stated so, i don't really consider the 6's to be "... | |
| Difference between Forte 4 and 4A amp ? My 3's, 4's and 6's all ran at about the same temp give or take. The 4's should have been "warmer" in theory. All of these amps idle at about 115* - 120* or so and climb slightly from there when "gettin' it". Maybe my bias is up a bit on the "A/B"... | |
| DIY Cat 5 speaker cables.... "Splashy" treble to me is a combination of things. Lacking of detail, focus, attack & decay, harmonic overtones, air and the seperation of notes, etc... It can be "close to sibilant" in many cases. As an example, a cymbal that is cleanly and q... | |
| Specs for JVC M-L10 power & P-L10 pre See if you can find a production date somewhere on them and then i'll see what i can find out about them for you. Sean> | |
| AudioLab FM 8000T tuner Display light Sounds like a loose connection that boils down to a brittle solder joint. Nothing major to take care of for someone that is handy with soldering. Sean> | |
| DIY Cat 5 speaker cables.... Natalie, it sounds like you did the "shortcut" approach. It sounds like you basically made a "twisted pair" out of the CAT 5 twisted pairs ??? If so, that is why your amp is not running hot. Whereas your using 16 wires total, Chris' uses 54 wires.... | |
| Difference between Forte 4 and 4A amp ? Xiekitchen, out of curiosity, what don't you like about the 3 or feel that it should be avoided ? You can lay it on the line with me... : ) As to Elizabeth's comments, all of the Forte' amps run hot and sound best after being left on all the time.... | |
| What are you doing with your tax return? I'm glad to see that i'm not the only one feeding the poor and huddled masses with my "tax refunds".... Sean> | |
| Difference between Forte 4 and 4A amp ? Drew & 1953 both offered a good bit of info on these amps. As mentioned, the main differences between the 4 & 4A was that the 4A had balanced inputs. Personally, i consider the Forte' amps some of the best buys in audio. The fact that most... |
