    Audioclassics is a first rate outfit but perhaps all that's needed is a parts supply. Here's American Microsemiconductor with both parts available but they ask for a Request for Quotation. ...

    Glad to hear your are in Nirvana again but what you described has me a bit concerned. As much as it can be horrendous to the power amp and speakers, hot-plugging connections to a preamp should not...

    Hi Heather,

    One little detail. I notice on the Citation 22 that you have your Speaker Operating Mode switches set to 8 Ohms. For 8 to 16 Ohms Bridged, The switches should be at 4 Ohms each....

    Sometimes we decide to get something new, just for the sake of something new. This, when coupled with somebody wanting your old thing, is the best way to demonstrate how foresight can never catch up...

    Second most subjective topic in audio.

    I'm considering the preferences you mentioned, foremost the Hafler 101. From that, the first preamp I'd look for, would be an APT Holman. You can pick one up cheap if you are lucky. I just looked at...
  6. Plain Paper?

    I had always gone along with the idea that the untreated paper surrounds were from the earliest vintage. If, as I understand Don for the "130", the D was only dropped after 1950 yet Howe's example...

    I've been wondering for years why column speakers came to be. Was it simply convenient size, shape and asthetics or were they supposed to have some acoustic behavior besides beamy sibilance?

    The battery check might be a nice simple way to confirm what the speakers are actually doing. Your 4435's, I'm to understand, have been reconed or refoamed at some point and I think the vintage of...

    I'm grabbing at straws here by assuming you are using this in Germany (230v-50 hz.) If you know that you are working from the same power source and a common (neutral) and ground for all equipment...

    V V Vibration! Even a heavy, well damped sub cabinet is going to send a fair amount to what is in the same enclosure. I guess it wouldn't be a problem for fixed gear such as amps, preamps, etc, but...

    I've always tried to keep components away from speakers, particularly subs. What kind of goodies would you be putting in that rack space?

    What might the low end response curve look like? I'd love to get a 515 to do well in a small size like that.

    I would record two channels. One from a tietack lavalier such as a Shure SM-11 and the other from a room mic. The great EV RE-20 would be fine.
