How Much Difference Does a More Powerful Amp Make? Isn't that what the Pass "first watt" thing is all about? There are a hundred things that make up a great amp, and power is only one of them. I think 100 clean high gain watts per side is just about right for my rig and room, but I was at a friend... | |
Do Interconnects need to "warm up"? It is good to know it takes a while for my cables to settle down once I disconnect them. Not sure why...but it's good. | |
When to get your amp up graded caps ??? Russian Roulette requires 1 live chamber, otherwise it's just too dangerous. | |
Kavent S33 owners...are you out there? I am afraid to admit I own some old stuff as it severely downgrades my audio geek street cred, but I'm also an audio cheapskate so I have no choice. It is kinda funny to me how self indulgent I felt when I bought the ACE515 all those years ago...t... | |
When to get your amp up graded caps ??? I think it is sometimes necessary to "downgrade" the amp when one feels unworthy of the high quality of the sound. | |

Magico Q3's at Goodwin's High End Did I mention Ronstadt's head...HUGE...like a gigantic Mexican mellon...just frightening....scares small children...although I doubt there's a connection to her vocal chops. | |
Do Interconnects need to "warm up"? Well mister "Ted Denney III"...prior to a show you should rent a truck, put the entire entire system in it powered with a generator, drive it fired up all the way to the audio show, carry the whole damn thing in there while it's still running, and... | |
mogami interconnects I agree up to a point...but if the cables (or any component) are SO bad I can't stand 'em (this was a first actually) I say NO NO NO...the AQs, although sounding better after a couple of weeks, sounded pretty damn good right out of the box. I assu... | |
Magico Q3's at Goodwin's High End Ronstadt, from a musicians point of view, had/has what is generally considered a kick ass voice...she could peel paint from your ceiling...strip the chrome off yer tailpipes...or something. In any case, I've never heard it described as "small" (I'... | |
Do Interconnects need to "warm up"? I read someplace that Eric Johnson claims to sense different tonal characteristics in his guitar sound when comparing various brands of 9 volt batteries in his effects boxes. So there. And, interestingly, since I'm not actually wiring up all these... |
