To Sub or not to Sub...? vmps' are good *and* cheap. :>) i've heard the top-line welodynes, & the mid-line rels in one-sub set-ups - they never sounded right, the bass always sounded like it was coning from the sub, never blended into the soundstage, and was boomy ... | |
To Sub or not to Sub...? i definitely recommend *a pair* of subs for audio, even if ewe have full-range main speakers. as mentioned before, subs can take the load off of the full-range speakers' woofers, cleaning them up considerably. other adwantages are allowing ewe to ... | |
VTL 450 SIG. vs. Wolcott P220M hey burt, aren't ya sellin' 'em cuz ya fell for the rowland concentra ll? ;~) doug, mite sell my electrocompaniet amps, if i could *steal* a pair of melos monoblocs... :>) | |
Bi-amp with same sort of amp? it is generally more difficult to match differing amps for bass & mid/treble. that said, as abstract7 points out, it *can* be done, but ya have to pay close attention to the characteristics of the speakers & the amps. using an active cross... | |
Help with two preamps and amp connection do yer preamps have a tape loop? if so, have yer audio preamp hooked-up full-time *only* to the two main audio speakers/amps. listen to music as always. then, for movies, have yer h-t preamps' main outs feed *only* the center & surround channe... | |
NAD 515 CD Player use with DAC i used to use an ase z-man tubed buffer stage w/my nad 515 (and the panasonic portable slp1a before that). this was the *only* way i could tolerate the digital nasties, when it was run thru an electrocompaniet ec-1a preamp, & then, a linn kair... | |
TEACH ME ABOUT BI-WIRE 702, i don't doubt what yure saying, but emf produced by the woofer, absorbed by the amplifier, & rejected by the tweeter's side of the x-over network, is going thru more wire from woof-to-amp-to-tweet, & when going to amp, the tweet isn't... | |
UPS or should I Say Oooops ups is no better or worse than any other shipper. when stuff is properly packed, i've never had a problem. as i mentioned above, they *did* pay a claim, no questions asked, when the shipper *obviously* fraudulently packed damaged goods. in another... | |
UPS or should I Say Oooops ericbee, ewe are mistaken - ups *will* make payment for damaged goods - even if they were poorly packed, or were damaged prior to shipment. i was the buyer in two such incidents, & ups paid both times, w/no hassles - once to a dishonest seller... | |
rb 900 arm talk to origin-live - they say their fully-modded rb250 is better than all the other rega arms - including the ones w/the origin-live mods. they say this is because the less-expensive arms' configuration, while using slightly less-expensive bearin... | |
TEACH ME ABOUT BI-WIRE 70242, it's the interaction of the woofer & tweeter w/the amplifier that i'm referring to, - bi-wiring puts distance between these interactions, making them happen closer to the amp, not to the speaker. | |
Mark levinson audio system in Lexus? i commute 90 miles a day, & my main drive has *no* radio - i like to listen to the sweet sounds of that alfa v6 winding out. i enjoy my stereo at home, when in the car, i enjoy *driving*. doug *tired of suv's/fones/trucks/stereos, instead of a... | |
cd players with volume control paulwp, if yer assessment of yamski is correct, then he yust needs to find something like ewe suggest, & run it thru an ase z-man toob-buffer-stage, or the musical-fidelity wersion (not sure of its model # designation). this was the only way i... | |
cd players with volume control i admit i've never compared the pricy stuff such as accuphase & wadia - i guess i can't afford to wring that last *nth* of sound from a format that i never really liked that much, & is in imminent danger of being replaced. but, as far as m... | |
BIAMPING regarding (b), the rating of the speakers really wood depend on the capacity of the amp to deliver current. my electrocompaniet amps, for example, put out serious current & are stable down to at least 0.5 ohm. so, if bridged, they'd still be s... |
