    Fuse and Cable Directionality

    I thought continuous cast was a pot of molten copper that is extruded through a nozzle and directly into heated dies that maintain propper temperature and cool rate as the rod is then slowly squeezed down to size. This type wire is low grain depenent on the purity of base metal as well as...

    Arn't these type amps dangerous to speakers when you blow a tube?

    American Sound, "The Absolute Nothing"

    Its pretty obvious why DDK left. Or should we say, was told to restrain himself and decided he could not.

    Low Heat Phonostage

    I have experienced bad RF rejection with the Loco. Wrong location and lots of hum and radio out the speakers. Sounds good. Be cautious.

    American Sound, "The Absolute Nothing"

    I was only joking. If people wanted to hold everyone feet to the fire over whether they have a gain or not, there would be nothing to discuss. And besides, till analog can beat digital, why buy a TT.:)

    Direct Coupled Drivers Vs Crossover

    I hear you Adrian. What you are saying is mirrored by what people say on the Klipsch forum. They use a SET on the mid and class A or D on the woofers and tweeter. Where you cross the woofers may be a key component. I think they are crossing around 300 hertz or below. Where do you cross...

    Direct Coupled Drivers Vs Crossover

    I don't doubt this. But a passive is also detrimental. They are impacting the circuit in a different place. I wonder if this impacts how that detriment is heard. Can you describe what the fingerprint on the signal is like compared to what a passive crossover does?

    If you have to ask its not for you. Don't ask questions either unless you intend to buy. This is a sales thread!!:eek:o_O:D:D

    Direct Coupled Drivers Vs Crossover

    Whatever is in the horn now is very nice till you listen close. I had Scott here tuning my system. We had the horn in. It sounded good. Then we put the Coax in. After the 3rd song or so the deficiencies were heard. The coax is all around better. A better driver on the horn might pick up...

    American Sound, "The Absolute Nothing"

    I am asking out of curiosity. I thought the platter was 300lbs. I didn't know if this types of weight on an air bearing would tolerate being stopped and started, or if you need to get it rotating and let it spin. Its rare I see a table like this. Most are a push of a button and 15 seconds...

    Direct Coupled Drivers Vs Crossover

    Maybe the CP855 with the PM4 diaphragm instead of the titanium. Or maybe the CP755. I don't remember exactly.

    American Sound, "The Absolute Nothing"

    Are you saying any of these high mass air bearing tables can easily be stopped and started with your hands. Thats what I do with my table. I turn off the motor and use 2 hands to brake the platter. I only use one to start it, but its light in comparison. And a DD. So it is iok to touch an...

    Pure Audio Project upgrades and tweaks

    Haaa. Not to much to mess up. Yes, the little red jumper plug. I use to biwire from my amp, but I did not have the exact same cable and heard some distortions. I definitely got more power, but at a cost. If I had a second set of Inakustik Air 2404 I would biwire. I'm going to try and...

    My way to the next Poweramp

    I'm curious you thoughts with a Wilson now that you have been away from your hORNS for a few years. What did you gain. What did you loose?
