"Audiophile" Power Cables: The Greatest Audio Conspiracy Theory of All Time?
waytoomuchstuff, I commend you on a logical, well written post. Now, let’s put an end to this silliness. Click on www.tinyurl.com/valhalla2-us 😲 Next, click on www.tinyurl.com/valhalla2-china 🤑 There is an $11,679.99 price difference between t... 
PowerBall Lottery Winner
You mean I can’t put my Shun Mook Mpingo discs on top of my lottery ticket during the drawing and watch the electro-harmonic kinetic energy farce field rays from these discs make my winning ping pong balls fall out of the dispenser? 🤣🤣🤣 
replace Mcintosh with Luxman
I’m going to assume you meant the Luxman M900U power amp, not the C900U preamp. Having said that, you know that the M900U is Luxman’s best SS amp, and it has similar rated specs to Mac’s 611, other than the M900U is even heavier than the 611 (by a... 
When someone listens to your system for the first time.
Five subwoofers can also have an effect. We once had a couple over with a small child and the kid insisted on viewing one of the Jurassic Park movies we had. During one of the T-Rex chase scenes the entire room was rumbling and shaking and our fur... 
Has Anyone Ever Run TWO Identical Pairs of Speakers ?
I had previously written Now I have a problem: They sound so good that I guess I now need yet another pair for parts/backup! 😳😳😳As fate would have it, yet another pair of Polk RT-2000p’s fell into my lap for only $250, so now I really do have spar... 
Speaker Cables? why all the hype for expensive speaker wire?
12:28pmvinyl_rules... I could measure and duplicate the sound of any speaker cable or interconnect currently being marketed as a good sounding wire.I do wonder why no one has done this.Perhaps others have tried and found it is not as easy as you s... 
Speaker Cables? why all the hype for expensive speaker wire?
If I had just 1/100 of a penny for every word ever written about the sound (or not) of a speaker cable or an interconnect cable I would now be the planet’s wealthiest human! 🤑🤑🤑 IMHO, I believe the differences we hear can be explained by the induc... 
klipshorn speakers
I like russ69’s advice, and you can also get Belle Klipsch’s if you want a better looking speaker.I sold Klipsch’s when I was in college and I sold more Belle’s and La Scala’s than K-horns because they were much easier to place in a room.Another c... 
Can AVR DC Output at Preamp Outs be Increased?
millercarbon, please see my last post at 4:16 pm.What do you not understand? 
Can AVR DC Output at Preamp Outs be Increased?
Perhaps some clarification would enable more understanding of my post.My intended outcome is to increase the dynamic range of the preamp’s output into an external power amp, not to pump more DC volts into an external power amp with either a 0.75v ...

Can AVR DC Output at Preamp Outs be Increased?
I am confused by the lack of comprehension regarding my question.1. jasonbourne52, my question said NOTHING about speaker outputs or the number of channels in my AVR. And FYI, voltage DOES NOT “drive” speakers, watts drive speakers. Watts = amps T... 
Can AVR DC Output at Preamp Outs be Increased?
Let me simplify.For example, the Audio Research SP3 preamp is rated for 25V RMS @ 1 kHz at all outputs (https://www.arcdb.ws/model/SP3).My AVR is rated for 1.0V RMS @ 1kHz at all PREAMP outputs.I wish to increase the PREAMP output of my AVR from 1... 
An Urgent Hypothetical!
This is how you waste your time on July 4th? Oh, and this may come as a big shock to you after you wasted time posting this drivel that no one has any interest in: There is NO 326bes in Revel’s current product line! 😩😩😩 
Has Anyone Ever Run TWO Identical Pairs of Speakers ?
goodlistening64,Thank you for the feedback The decision to try this only came about after the Polk’s popped up on eBay in early June. I have these particular Polk’s in my eBay watch list and usually the one’s that pop up are in poor condition and/...
