Thinking I need a Sub...
I seem to change my outlook and oppinions about all this audio shtuff quite a bit. I was on the "just buy towers" kick once I got my kef xq5's and they did everything well, at least for me and in my rig. Then I had to sell them and my new speakers... 
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever?
Lacee and Banquo,Come on guys, if you won't tell us, or find out, whether you were using an smp wall wart or linear, maybe you could tell us the brand and model number so we can look it up??It's funny that I'm on the other side of the upgraded pow... 
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever?
How is my battery pack comparing to these wal warts? I went with the battery pack because I thought it was better...I'd prefer not to go to the teradak simply because the battery pack looks cleaner and I don't have to buy another powercord and I o...

When does speaker distortion become audible?
Frankly, don't call me Shirly (lol, that almost got posted wrong...the "r" is right next to the "t". I've been trying to pick up on what you're saying, Geoff, but haven't heard it yet (which might be a blessing really).I wonder sometimes if you go... 
Anyone Damp the insides of your Speaker Cabinets?
I added dampening to my wine tonight; it tasted awful, but it does sound better;-)Sorry Mapman, my jokes get worse as I get older, lol.I've been reading a little bit on-line and trying to educate myself a little more on the topic. I'll report back... 
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever?
Hmmm, Interesting. I'm a believer in upgraded power cords, power supplies and outlets but I can't see how this could make the lightspeed sound better. Correct me if I'm wrong, George, but the light in your Lightspeed Attenuator is really only cont...

First Stereo System Help
Hey, Prip!You mentioned that you don't have room for floorstanding speakers (they usually have a similar footprint as a speaker stand) so I'm wondering if you are actually going to place the speakers on a bookshelf. If so, that would change the re... 
Subwoofer for Beginner
Okay, so now I understand better why sometimes you need a sub. If you' e landed a pair of speakers that have incredible mids and highs which you are not willing to give up, but no deep bass, well....here we are.Keep us posted about which sub you g... 
Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever?
