| Parasound HCA-2200 - Should I repair, or sell? I would be inclined to repair it. They sell for $600+, sometimes over $700, and that's the original, not the II. | |
| How to connect a subwoofer into a mono block system I have a Rel Storm III and run it off my mono blocks with fantastic results. I had to build a harness to connect to the amps which sit on the floor next to each speaker. That harness links to the speakon connector at a junction strip. It integrate... | |
| Displaying your stereo on Facebook Well, I don't do it because no one I know would be interested and many I know would roll their eyeballs.That said, If Audiogon didn't exist, Facebook would be a viable platform to share with audiophiles, and Facebook is far more private than Audio... | |
| Paypal issues through Audiogon I've had a few sales through audiogon recently and the PayPal link has been fine Afrikaans (no complaints from buyers), but the shipping has not worked at all. I had to use paypal's and fedex's sites for the shipping. I wasted a lot of time with ... | |
| Electron Kinetics Eagle 2 Repair Help I suspect eksc is a one man shop now and may be affected by vacations and the like. Russ always returned my calls and emails, sometimes taking a few days. If you can be patient he's great. I'm sure there are other shops that can repair it though... | |
| Electron Kinetics Eagle 2 Repair Help are you sure EKSC is out of bus? No mention of it on their web site. It's a real shame if true. If you can get Russ to work it over you'll be miles ahead. I would also recommend having it upgraded to an Eagle 2C' spec if you can spare the cash. | |
| B&K Sonata M200 + Polk Rti A9’s I have a pair of them (+ a single one I use as a center channel). I have had as many as 6 at one time. They are great sounding amps even ignoring the power and current output. I use them to drive Totem Mani 2's which themselves are very power hung... | |
| Stereo Guy - Need advice on HT integration it's your preamp that needs HT passthrough, not the HT Processor. What the Passthrough does is take your front L/R outs from your HT pre/pro into your stereo preamp which sends it to your front (Joule) amp. If your preamp doesn't have passthrough ... | |
| Wireless Transmitter/Receiver for Rear speaker in HT thanks TLS49. I had thought about that . . . and the quality would be better than either long speaker cables or wireless, but I still have to string wires through the ceiling which I'm trying to avoid. This may be where I land if I can't find a wi... | |
| Wireless Transmitter/Receiver for Rear speaker in HT for clarification, I'm looking for a low level transmitter/receiver between the pre/pro and power amp which I will place with the rear speakers. | |
| Best Tonearm Lifter? I have the Q-up. It works perfectly and is easy to set up. It's less fiddly than other lifters I've used. | |
| B&K preamp question I have 2 of the PT-3 MkII's and they are a steal of a preamp. I too can't say if the PT-5 has anything other than Balanced outputs over the PT-3. | |
| New Ikea storage unit great for LP's! For storage systems which may be too deep, here's an inexpensive solution. Many years ago, before Ikea, I bought some 30"x15"x15" boxes at an unfinished furniture store. I selected the model with 4 vertical divisions. I then found some scrap ... | |
| New Ikea storage unit great for LP's! that looks exactly like the Expidit shelf unit that I've been using. The Kallax appears to have some nice accessories (eg, doors, drawers, feet) that I'd like to get for my Expidits if they'll fit. The one issue I had with the 2x8 units (ie, when... | |
| R.I.P. John Wetton (King Crimson/Asia) One of my favorite voices - I liked everything he did, though Asia was a bit too "pop" for me. Those King Crimson albums he was on are my favorites by KC. |
