| Amp fan cooling without dc current in the 110 line I recently added a cooling fan to my pre-amp from active Thermal Management and it uses a wall wart. I plugged it directly into the wall which powers my system, but since the rest of my system is plugged into AC conditioners, it doesn't seem to ad... | |
| Is it the beer or do speakers/electronics really need some extended warm-up period? I don’t drink, so it must be the electronics. But actually, I do think after about 20-30 minutes things do sound better, more focused. I know that the cartridge always sounds better after the first side, I usually play a side of a LP that I don’t ... | |

I do keep a full compliment of tubes on hand, and my motive here is not so much saving money as it is saving wear on the component.I had wondered about the "in use" amp back feeding into the idle amp and damage that might cause damage. I wasn't su... | |
| Insuring your Audio Room? tls49 is right. Make a list with serial numbers and msrp values. Take photos and check with your agent to make sure you have "replacement cost" coverage. | |
| cartridge screws If you have an ACE near you, they usually have a great assortment and also a lot of firearm stores will have very small screws for scope rails and rings. You should take the screws you have with you as these normally don't use nuts. So you may hav... | |
| Who makes cables for McIntosh? In my many years and many McComponents I have found that Cardas is most pleasing to my ears. I started with Monster years ago, moved on to Tara Labs lower end then thru many other trials and utilization of The Cable Co lending library landed on Ca... | |
