Does sellers responsibility end at FedEx?
Thank you for the replies. I am seller. I have not bought or sold equipment for a long time. I searched hi and low on site to find clarity on this. I wanted a quick answer as i want to provide buyer with fast service. But in the end, I realized I ... 
Virtual Dynamics - David vs Nite II vs Master
Thanks for the feedback. I've had the nite II XLR IC's back in for a week now. The sonics have improved the past couple days. This pair was straight from the factory vs. my previous pairs (David and Nite) were broken in before I used them. My impr... 
How do you get a 250 lbs Speaker on an SP-101?
Elgordo - I like the way you think. However, I could probably rent a team of woman weight lifters for about the same price. Not as exacting as your brilliant contraption, but with most things, one must balance form with function.Keep the creative ... 
How do you get a 250 lbs Speaker on an SP-101?
Thanks for the input. Beer is on my list of things to do tomorrow. Irish stated some good points/tips that I hadn't thought of. Fortunately, the speakers are currently in the position I like, thus the hardest part is done (many hours of listening ... 
Wadia still in business?
Yes. Yesterday I sent an email and left a voice mail - both were responded to the same day. Today, the issue is resolved. I say this not just because I am a Wadia owner protecting my investment, but because whatever difficulties or evils Wadia is ... 
Wadia 27ix Clock Synch w/ Transport-good thing?
Hi Dennis and Rja, I just received an 861se. The 27ix ver. 3 270se combo - which I really enjoyed - was the last one in a parade of many I had while waiting for the 861.I now use VD Nite II all around. I used a VD David XLR digital cable with the ... 
Wadia 27ix Clock Synch w/ Transport-good thing?
Hello Wadia fans and critics,This is not a response or reply concerning this thread's specific topic; but it seems to be the thread with latsest post referencing Wadia, so I will post my good news here.Delivered yesterday - my new 861se! The magic... 
Wadia Owner - with or without preamp
I've had a few Wadia's, and depending on amp pre-amp and CD model, my preferences have varied.The 830 I had for about a year and preferred it through a BAT VK-50se pre-amp - amps were McCormack dna-1 rev A mono's. Direct, the soundstage was too fl... 
What's under your Classe Omega, or other big amp?
As I thought, a few different methods are used. The points/spiking seem to be a common method. I've decided to start with my speakers first, then my amp. The speakers are EW Andra, the original model. Using their stock spikes, things are a bit loo... 
Comparing Wadia vs. Meitner
I think (and I know, my thoughts are like golden nuggets of wisdom that shine light on all that is dark....kidding) that the hearing aid comment may have come off differently in print than what the posters intent actually was. (I could be wrong?) ... 
CDP - running only one channel, can this damage?
Of course, that assumes that John is correct. I guess I need to understand a little more about my equipment and electronic principles. If I was unable to get through to Wadia (they called back), I probably would have investigated dummy loading. FW... 
CDP - running only one channel, can this damage?
Hi All,I spoke with John at Wadia. We are ALL CORRECT. He said there would be no issue with running one channel. And further suggested to not put a dummy load on the un-used side. However, IF dummy loaded PROPERLY, that would be no issue, but not ... 
CDP - running only one channel, can this damage?
Herman and Sean, Thank you both for your input. With gear that has xlr and rca outputs, I wonder if the two unused are "active" while the other two are in use? If so, I wonder to be safe, if it would not be prudent to put a dummy load on the unuse... 
CDP - running only one channel, can this damage?
Thanks for your replies. I need to run out for the day, but will check back in later. Thanks, Jim 
Words From the Wise
Clarification:1. It was to late for me the day I was born. I used to sleep with the radio under my pillow. There is magic in them there notes, and the people playing them, and the spirits that guide them, and in me when I am open - which I can not...
