Repairing an older Grotto for someone. I am looking for a replacement 10" driver, ML preferred. I do not need the cabinet or any Electronics are in working order, but needs the driver recoiled or replaced. The surround and cone are in very good condition. ML does not stock and will not get...

As far as the slippage of the panel: The new double sided tape will work but still has the inherent problem of potentially giving in again given time. Take a look at this thread I posted around 2006 or 2007 and see if you can incorporate any of these ideas in addition to your repair. Here's the...

Awesome, that is so cool!! I wonder what kind of acoustic energy level is needed to achieve the levitaion with those select objects. I'm going to experiment in my microwave and see if I can get a few green peas to float! The frequency is high enough that we cannot hear it no matter what the...

The new VPI Scout looks great Bart!! Sounds like you are pleased with its sound too, enjoy your time with it! p.s. You sure you weren't using your "fish-eye" lens in that initial picture of the warpped Traveler plinth...lol... Sam

I agree with Gordon's comment. Without a direct replacement from the original manufacturer for the Quest's, I would replace both drivers. There's so much more to matching a speaker than just the physical size and impedance - Free air Resonance, Q, Frequency response, flatness or variation over...

Robin Trower ... Bridge of Sighs

...think we have the right of way with mother nature...no, I don't think so.

The card is priceless....

Robin, Thanks for posting in the DYI section. It's always very helpfull to see pictures and a step by step description of the process. Glad to hear it's wokring again!

I agree with the choices made that the turntable should be: - as close to the equipment (phono pre amp) as possible. - not in any proximity of a corner of the room or any other corner perhaps formed by a cabinet or wall protrusion. - on its own rack or stand. Be sure the turntable stand is as...

Wow, it's Robin!!! It sounds to me like the voice coil winding let go on one of the drivers.

Hello, Let me ask you, is it a distorted sound or a buzzing sound you are hearing? The two will diagnose a very different result. Here's my experience... I had the opportunity to purchase a used pair of ReQuests from the audio dealer which was a trade in. When I got them home I began...

Curious... Can you imagine what concern this thread is doing to potential/new member/owners of ML product...? I don’t post a lot lately – used to - but do like to check in now and then. Never expected to see this one coming. My ReQuests which I purchased new in 1999 have been sitting in...

Welcome guys.

Joey, Congratulations on a very beautiful home, enjoy it! Best wishes to you and your family for many years of health and happiness together! In reading through the posts about using the room upstairs for a listening room, here is some of my input. Considering that it sounds like you don't...

Ron, I am in serious awe...really, really nice purchases! Very nice system! Bet I know what you're doing for the next few days non-stop! I wouldn't be able to sleep. I'm wondering how long the 601's have been available? Or, did the 601 replace the 501? I'll have to look up McIntosh's site and...

Thai, I also agree with what Greg has to say. Connecting all the individual 120V and ground cables anywhere that is convenient is not the way to go. They really should be connected to a central system and then that system should be the only 120V and ground plugged into the wall for the entire...

I've read about setups similar to this but can't remember where. It's all about moving the air thats it. Just that the fan speed has to react very quickly to changes in frequency. Awesome idea!

Point taken Dave, I'm guilty...

In order to reproduce equal acoustic output from each driver, symmetry is always preferred...that includes not only dimensional symmetry but also acoustic symmetry. The material that the speaker sees as the first reflection should be the same on both sides or walls - and usually we want to...
