| Sudden Hearing Loss and Impact on Music Enjoyment larsman - yes I have behind the ear hearing aids. I guess I could try over the counter hearing aids. The ones I have were around $6,000 but Texas Workforce Solutions paid for the ones I have now. | |
| Sudden Hearing Loss and Impact on Music Enjoyment I have worn hearing aids for 5 years . I am using Phonak aids and have ear molds. They have different settings built in and I can adjust them and save the settings. I have not had good luck with the bluetooth input or using headphones. Maybe large... | |
| In-wall line array wiring question If you run 2 in series and 1 in parallel with them you should be at about 5.6 ohms. | |
| What building my own speakers has taught me... I'm impressed. I have built speakers starting in the '70s. All of them have been fun but none I could call reference. I built electrostatics once and was quit impressed. It has all been fun and I learned a lot about speakers, boxes and crossovers. | |
| Buzzing sound emanating from my speakers when receiver is set to 'phono' What turntable, cartridge and ohono preamp are you using. This may shed a little more light on the problem. | |
| Power Cords/ Conditioner/Surge Protectors ZeroSurge looks interesting. I like the inductor type protection. I have been using SurgeX equipment for years. I use it on installed pro systems. It has models with remote tun on and off, squencing, and low or high voltage turn off. | |
| The best opening act you've ever seen & heard? Chicago opening for Jimi Hendrix 1969, Houston. | |
| Balanced vs RCA preamps Will someone explain fully balanced. Ground loops can exist even with a balanced connection. You may have to lift pin one. Tubes or solid state can be balanced it just depends on how many tubes you want to use or if you want transformers. | |
| Suggestions on improvement You won't get decent hearing aids for anywhere near $1,000.00. The Schiit Loki may be an option. I wear my hearing aids when I listen and select the music program. | |
| Affordable Grounding Thanks for the excellent overview Mike. | |
| A nightmare regarding streaming? I have used Soundiiz to move playlists between Amazon Music and Qubuzz. It worked great and was very easy. | |
| question about Balanced signals. What is the purpose of a balanced circuit. If you want it to reduce hum and noise you need a differential input. The signal does not have to be differential but both legs need to have the same output impedance to ground. The input must have the sa... | |
| Hearing aid question I have been wearing hearing aids for a little over 4 years. My hearing changed and I updated my aids a couple of months ago. I got Phonak's top of the line hearing aids both times. The music setting gives me a more open sound than the other settin... | |
| Unplugging power cords from amps/ pre amps I am using a SurgeX SEQ for sequencing and surge protection. I'm not sure how it affects the sound yet. but I don't worry about lightning as much now. | |
| Requesting opinions about 4 specific amplifiers You listen at about the same levels as I do but I don't consider it loud. Church is that loud. |
