I say Loud AND In Your Face :)
It was a giant SSL in one studio and a Neve V3 in the other when they closed. One of my reps used to do the maintenance on them back in the late 80s early 90s
Being a noob, I should ask @Fritz...
Curious which No Doubt tune you were playing?
"It's My Life" (the Talk Talk cover) is one of my test tracks to evaluate a system, in no small part to see how it handles the LF pulsing and some...
Agreed.
And Cindy's primal emoting of a line like, "I'll give you fish! I'll give you candy! I'll give you everything I have in my hand" is in itself a marvel.
There must have been some...
Incredible! I log into the forum for the first time in months to research L166 crossovers a bit, and I find not one, but TWO happy surprises!
First a post on this Lansing Iconic prototype, and to...
Hi Richard, thanks for noticing :)
I'm still around, and check in from time to time - and I couldn't resist a little bit of snark in tis thread!
but the last two years have been brutal on my...
Thanks to @edgewound for the definitive answer!
Hey @funboy6942, I'll give you tree-fiddy...
After installing the diaphragm back into the driver without the shim, the HF sounds amazingly....normal. Thanks for the installation page, Earl K.

I feel like the guy who bought a used Servodrive sub and posted on the LAB about his problem with only getting one tone out of the sub no matter what he did.
Turns out the speaker connection used...
Well, this is the part where I go to the corner stool and sit with my pointy hat on :crying:
The spider shim was installed between the old dia and phase plug when I took the driver apart. My...
I ordered and received an 8-ohm diaphragm from GPA and installed it on the 288 over the past weekend. The issue I was having was a breaking up - VC rubbing sound using the replacement Simply...
Raises hand, "Oooh! Oooo! I know what those are, Mr. Catah!"
I just realized, this BGW Amp thread is kind of the water-cooler thread? To chat about other stuff than what's relevant to a particular thread, or just shoot the breeze a bit?
I was wondering how...
Finally able to get back to the forum, and thanks for the scans of the Giddings article, RMC. Giddings' book, "Audio Systems Design and Installation" is one of the bibles I've read and used over the...
Now you've got me curious about who my neighbors are. Also, I vaguely remember seeing a member here who lives on the Hood Canal? It's a long big body of water, but Poulsbo is one of the towns...
Aha, you search far and wide on Craigslist :)
My first hi-fi experiences were in Bend. One of my older friends worked in the hi-fi shop there, and finagled with the owner to allow us to have a...
Well I hope all of us rednecks and our extension cords haven't scared off the OP.
Still there Darren69?
Lol...Basically, yes :)
The twist rate is semi-random in extension cords, based on what day they were assembled and the quality of the PVC jacket that keeps whatever twist rate in place. You know...
Not me, at least this time :). There are sone bottleheads around, and Shunyata is from here.
You must be nearby if you’ve seen Poulsbo on Craigslist? I never guessed I’d run across a local so...
Good find! I knew about the coax can speakers, but not the one in the same Sx-series cabinet. The Altec duplex drivers in that would have sounded far smoother!
Thanks for the welcome, Barry. I've never met Professor Jones, but have read a great many of his articles and dealer communications. He must be a real kick to be around!
Most of my interactions...
I've often used Belden bonded-pair category cable for a stereo unbalanced 3.5mm wall jack input 200-250' feet away from the system rack, using a Jensen input transformer to feed a balanced DSP input....
Bill Whitlock is one of the main people behind the science of the problem of the "conduit transformer", and how conductor twist rates can defeat noise in both high-voltage premises wiring and...
Hi SEAWOLF97!
That's interesting about the different wiring you encountered inside the AR3...do you think it was that way from the factory? And I sincerely doubt MDF would have survived better...
The AR3 came out in 1958, and there's a reference to the 1958 Brussels World Fair in there, too - so this might even be earlier than you thought!
Which also explains the 5% premium on speakers...
