Very nice link there, thank you...

If ESL is not intended as reference to a trendy marketing/product name, I've had my ESLs (reQuests) for 14 years and haven't been speaker shopping since... Old.

How about a portable temporary wall-segment.. a 4x8 of plywood stood on end, see what happens, match the distances on the other side, push it out of the way when the wife gets home.

Well... Tom Green is a PITA. And the motorcycles (at that time) were in the kitchen, thanks to the Tom Green video. Disclaimer: I have Martin Logans, and Krells, and a motorcycle (in the garage), so i can't help have some affinity for a similar soul. "When manufacturers work directly with...

More Fabio The rest of the article.

Who is Fabio? Well, look him up. He's recently done some fun Old Spice commercials. But, he's also an audio enthusiast, like us, but with more money than (most of) us. Here's a reprint from Audio Video Interiors, November 1995, which, miraculously, was not chewed up by the Florida Palmetto...

Show yours, I'm interested in seeing what people use/try.. Here's my current (pun alert) setup... Images: 2awg thnn to the woofer and 18awg magnet wire jumper to the panel - ML reQuest White noise sweet spot response curve...

Color CFL's for me... Feit Electric CFL This brand has a pretty rich color... red blue green and others available, $4.98 each at the Home Depot

I like www.dimeadozen.org for addtional roio's. You'll have to register, and maybe wait a little while for a slot to open. General tracker statistics (last updated on Mon, 12th Dec 2011, at 20:26 GMT): Registered users: 124,991 New within 24 hrs.: 150 Unconfirmed: 36

Speaker Wire Change (DIY) As probably noted above, I've become partial to single-solid core wiring for signals and speakers. A friend bought and liked Mapleshade's cables, so it sent me on an investigation...

Burn-In is probably Room Temperature Annealing I've been playing with wires again lately, and the key word for this discussion should be "annealing". Bending copper stresses it, and apparently changes the electrical characteristics to some degree. Heating (to a high temperature) allows...

Lusts fulfilled... Replaced the Acurus with a Krell KAV-250 and a week later with Krell FPB 350 Mcx. Replaced the Phillips DVD with an Oppo 93. Added a Roku. Replaced the rack with a steel/glass AV stand. Cable Universal Remote works with the amplifiers. I feel like I'm done for a...

Let's see a picture of your room, because you have a pretty decent kit already.

Hmm... Mine's pretty big...

That quote led me to http://www.enjoythemusic.com/magazine/manufacture/0808/ Ok... That's a nice little read. When I read your post I thought "bias current" meant current at the base of a bi-polar, not the flow from the rails through emitter and collector. I haven't studied circuits for a long...

I got a 50" plasma recently too... I too prefer the gently glowing phospors to the rather garish CFL/LED backlight. The TV plays through the reQuests, and when watching "live" and the commercials come on, I switch the DAC to music. The odd thing is that I end up watching the commercials now! :mad:

Yes, the Acurus has a single trimmer. Did adjustment years ago, it idled unevenly, one sink a little hotter than the other. Twist the dial and idle temperature would go from stone cold to blazing hot. I set both sides evenly (per voltage on the base of the output transistors) and idle heat --...

Thanks for the link, I think I found what I was looking for there: "Does the 250a have an adjustment to reduce output offset? Yes, there are two trimmers in the amp, the one near MPQ6600A1 (Quad complementary pair) is for adjust the offset. Another one near the bias transistor 15031 mount on...
