Von scheikert VR4jr what are you using ?
Mfsoa is correct, the bottom posts of the woofer cabinet are connected to the 2 woofers (in parallel).The upper posts of the woofer cabinet connect to the umbilical jack only. With the binding post jumper plates installed, this allows you to use a... 
Volume and Bass levels at LA HE Show
Show conditions are generally bad and not really a good place to audition products. It's a means for manufacturers/dealers to show their new items and generate interest in them. Auto Shows are a better example of this because you only get to see t... 
Will it work? B&K Ref 50 and Channel Island D-200
I haven't heard this combination, but electrically it is a good match for both the B&K and JM Labs...should sound great!-Dusty-Channel Islands Audio 
Impressions Channel Islands Audio D-100 monoblocks
No offense taken, just wanted to clarify the points of your post.Yes, you can build a pair of Hypex mono's for about half our retail price (that's a big fraction)...this is true of any amplifier. You'd still have to buy chassis, switches, jacks, b...

D-100 also now uses a custom version of UcD400 (not UcD180). D-100 and D-200 do not use standard "off the shelf" Hypex modules. These amplifiers have been engineered from the ground up with over a year of R&D. The UcD technology is great to de... 
ICEpower Digital Switching Amps?
Our D series amplfiers use a linear power supply similar to the H2O (not a switching type) and are based on the new Philips UcD technology, NOT an ICE module or Tripath chipsets.You can read more on this technology herehttp://www.ciaudio.com/ucd_a... 
Audio Alchemy power station 3 specs
You can use the "standard" Alchemy supplies...they have 7009 stamped on them, or you can use the PS-1..i think 7655 was the manufacturers number (but not sure).The DITB (DAC section) requires plus and minis 15-18vDC. The connector should be wired ... 
Channel Islands D-100 Amplifier
We don't have any plans to make an all black version, but it could be done at an extra cost (and lead time). Give us a call if you need more info.Channel Islands Audio(805) 984-8282 
Channel Islands D-100 Amplifier
All of our amplifiers use custom made transformers and are very quiet mechanically. All models are available in 100v (for Japan), 120v, and 220-240v/50~60hz (Europe, Asia, Australia).Hum in the audio(heard through the loudspeakers)is usually cause...

Channel Islands D-100 Amplifier
The D-100's have 27,340uF of power supply capacitance, which is really overkill for this type of design. The efficiency of the Class D section does not require huge banks of filter capacitors like a standard class AB design.No amp truly doubles it... 
Channel Islands D-100 Amplifier
In reply to Bailey...It all depends on how you want to set up the system(s).The new preamp will have 2 pair of outputs, what we could do is make one pair a standard variable output through the volume control, and the 2nd pair could be configured f... 
Channel Islands D-100 Amplifier
We're working on a RF remote controlled passive preamp with 4 inputs, a tape loop and 2 pair of output jacks. I don't believe in the pass-thru idea because if you play your hifi and forget you're in HT bypass, the volume is full blast and can caus... 
If you couldn't get Vandersteen speaker's
I owned a pair of 2CE sig's and they worked great in my old house, where they were placed on the long wall of the room spaced out about 2 feet.When i moved into my new place, the room required them being placed along the short wall ...about 2 feet...
