| Mcintosh 2301 tube amplifier, how much power used from the wall? I don't think the specs reflect what really happens. If it is that much it will heater room like a portable heater set to low Times two. The only way to do this is to measure it from the wall. What reaches the speaker is a minor part of the equa... | |
| Worth upgrading from MC611 to MC901? @stephens770 Do you know what the running use watt specs are? This would be very helpful to determine what the BTU generation is. I have a watt use Device used to measure watts from an outlet. The 611 rarely gets above 65, and when just left on... | |

| running 2 of the same amps into 1 pair of speakers [ first watt J2's] Iam confused about what you’re trying to do. Are you speakers biampable? Crøss Talk benefits are the main issue.

| Why are People Dumping their Audio Research Gear and What Does it Say about them? Audio research runs their tubes especially hard and they need to be replaced more frequently. And many say they sound like solid state. I was close to buying one but it doesn’t work well with home theater due to heavy tubes use. They were priced... | |
| What would cause noise (ground noise?) when touching the volume control and tone controls? Use a power conditioner plugged into one outlet. And then buy a new dog | |
| Crossover - hard to find for biamping The biamp ingredients I'm considering are a Conrad Johnson gat2, CJ art150 150 watt per chanel stereo amplifier, mcintosh mc611 600 Watt monos, and b&w 802 d3. I like the idea of what Mcintosh has recently done with the combo ss/tube mono amp... | |
| How do I switch from Wi-Fi to Ethernet cables? I would feed the ethernet cable through the walls and put a jack on the wall. Makes life so much easier. Seems your modem is part router, otherwise not sure you’d have Wi-Fi. Once you have an ethernet Jack on the wall, you’ll have a better co... | |
| Audio Research in Receivership. Why would audio research be owing money too so many dealers? is it due to returns of unsold merchandise to AR for which dealers were waiting payment on? | |

| Can a better power cable make a difference if NOT plugged directly into an outlet? I use a Transparent power isolator, which is sort of like a conditioner,only better as is it doesn’t restrict anything. And I use quality power cables from transparent. This all means I'm spending about $10,000 for purposes of elegantly trans... | |
| Speaker placement Get the speakers away from the back wall and you'll be fine and toe in toward the listener ensuring proper Center imaging. It's not rocket science. | |
| Demise of bass quality in Main speakers @dmbwire Maybe bass from your main speakers was enhanced by the subs. I contend main speakers often struggle with bass Quality due to smaller drivers and cabinets. Subwoofers are now being used to correct all this. Your initial comment about f... |
