| 450 Pound Monobloc Amplifier I have a 1500W hair dryer that weighs less than 1 pound. Doesn't sound that good though. | |
| Aging and Treble and Income? Would be interesting to do an RTA on what people think is "tipped up". Surprised myself when I did. Turned out that what I thought was relatively flat was down more than a few dB by 10K. | |

| why balanced power last before component? It's quite possible that the filter does not want any potential to ground on the "neutral". | |
| Transformer volume controls Not really.The windings on the primary remain the same but the secondary windings are tapped. That means that the input and output impedance both change but maybe not relevant if buffered by the preamp.Where a RVC converts to heat, a TVC or AVC co... | |
| Can You Get 1,000 WPC Out Of Regular Wall Socket? Recently bought a Crest CA-6 for home subwoofer duties. Rated 1500W @ 4 ohms bridged. That can draw nearly 15 amps from the outlet momentarily. Much of that rating is only momentary, depending on capacitor storage. At the "pro" level, seems that m... | |
| Choosing a Floorstander by Footprint Size Taller than suggested but BG Radia FS-420's at about $5000/pair are unobtrusive. Dipole might not be the best choice if close to the wall. | |
| Speakers made with unusual cabinet material Sorry, the name was Shun Mook and the Bella Voce speakers and it's not laminate but birch ply.There was one I saw made from layered laminate. Same way they make drums. | |
| Speakers made with unusual cabinet material I've seen some DIY speakers made like Magico Minis with layered baltic birch ply.Sonist uses thick poplar baffle.I forget the name, but the same guy with the mpingo discs, had thin wall layered laminate speakers. I have built speakers out of PVC ... | |
| SUBWOOFER x OVER So, the high pass is line level RCA. That's good because speaker level would imply a passive iron core inductor. Also on that model, it has no speaker level inputs where the SB-1000 does. That means if you want to use high pass, you need cables to... | |

| Audio Equipment... the word Cool... and Life Csontos, that's true about cylinders when the driver is on the end, particularly when centered in a circular baffle. Haven't done enough nearfeild testing to see about the side. Farfeild, I measured the room as much as the speakers. Nothing defina... | |

| What's your oppinion on bridging two channel amps? Depends on the amps and the load. I have bridged Plinius amps going into 4 ohms but the speakers are magnetic planar and not reactive. They also crossed over above 100 Hz. Those amps also worked well with dynamic speakers I built but those had an ... |
