| High level input The PD80s are rated at 101db/1w/1m and 4 ohms. That means you need only 1 watt to produce 101db at 1 meter (104 db at 2 watts, 107 db at 4 watts, and 110 db at 8 watts, etc...). Do you ever listen this loud? If you listen at "normal" levels of 88d... | |
| High level input It seems to me the MC352 is significant overkill for the PD80 loudspeakers. Doesn't answer your question, but it strikes me as a mismatch. | |
| what is good sound ? 06-23-06: Mrtennis9rw, chill out and take an anger management course.An ongoing suggestion in many MrT threads. You must have some first hand experience with this issue, eh MrT? | |
| Best low cost speaker cables for my system? The benefit of the 4x14 (or even the 2x12/2x14) is that for long runs, you can twist together two of the four leads for a combined gauge of 11...hence the 4S11 designation. Twisting together a 12 gauge and 14 gauge lead on the DH Labs Q10 would re... | |
| what is good sound ? MrT is a find mucker, plain and simple. It's how he entertains himself. Find Mucking.Any attempt to explain what he really means is like working your way through an Escher print. As soon as you think you've found the front door, he'll twist the st... | |
| Sound Quality or Convenience? I find myself more interested in the Investment-SQ continuum than the Convenience-SQ continuum, insofar as I'm on a quest to find less expensive components with SQ that I can accept as suitable sacrifice for their lower cost.However, this thread i... | |
| Behringer DEQ2496 HELP 06-22-06: EldartfordDrubin...I agree. I think that the problem is partly due to the manual being a translation from German, but mostly because it is written for pro sound people who are pretty savy, and explanations which would be helpful for the ... | |
| Interconect cables? Here's an idea. Search the "Member's Systems" for owners of the MA 6900 and/or Arcam FMJ CD33 and take a look at what they use for interconnects. | |
| Bel Canto, Nuforce, Acoustic Reality, Channel Is. Warm tonality with very good detail, imaging and soundstage...especially run as a stand alone amplifier with a good tubed preamp...Dussun V8i ($1595). 250wpc, dual mono. Consider it, despite it's ridiculously low price. I'm auditioning one now. | |
| chosing a cassette deck I have a 1980s vintage Yamaha with auto reverse as you describe. It plays each side and stops. I don't recall the model number, and the unit is boxed and stored at the moment. It is a single deck, though. If you are interested in the model number,... | |
| Behringer DEQ2496 HELP I believe I tracked down the problem, and it was not with the DEQ2496. It was, of course, pilot error.Thank you for flying Tvad Airlines. | |
| Best low cost speaker cables for my system? I have used 30' runs of both Canare 4S11 and MAS Signature Hybrid speaker cable, and my system does not have rolled of highs or radio channels playing. None of my amps...SS or tube...have ever shut down unexpectedly. I think my system sounds great... | |
| Behringer DEQ2496 HELP Gain in DEQ is/was set to 0.0. Thanks for the suggestion. | |
| what is good sound ? i have yet to read a reasoned definitive argument rejecting one or the other position.Mrtennis (Threads | Answers)I never reject any position that produces good sound. :) | |
| Tyler and Acoustic Zen reviews in TAS Let me repeat Ty's cost per speaker IS HIGHER THAN ANY SPEAKER ON THE MARKET. Really? That's a sweeping statement that would require considerable inside information from all speaker manufacturers to validate. How did you come to this conclusion? |
