I am thinking of replacing the 25 year-old capacitors in my ML ReQuest power-supply. I've seen the schematic for the cross-over board, but I have not seen the power-supply one. Please let me know where to find one if it has posted here. I've already emailed ML and they don't have any other...

Given that my ReQuests are approaching 25 years old, I am contemplating to "refresh" the ReQuests by: replacing with new panels. recapping the PSU and crossover boards. replacing the woofers. The woofers with the closest specs to the original ones are Eminence Lab 12C, but these are 89db...

What would happen if you use this tubed computer as your music server? Heck, why stop there? I'd think one could wire a couple banks of output tubes in parallel and feed to the speakers, in output-transformerless fashion. Logically, shortest signal path from source, directly to speakers. Volume...

...My name is Spike and I've got Joey-itis! I finally stepped into the 21st century, ditching my 15-year-old 35" tube TV, replacing it with a Sony 52" Bravia LCD. Now that I got the LCD flatscreen and the Cinema mounted on my wall, I see a mess of wires/cables running across my floor. These...
