Here is a pic of my current hifi and HT setup:

Go for it! It will be a marvelous experience and you will learn much from it. It also will give you a sense of satisfaction on building something that sounds good I built both the Foreplay and Paraglows stock from kit but have upgraded them over the years to their current incarnation. You can see them by clicking on my signature. The Bottlehead forum is a treasure trove of info with friendly people willing to give assistance/advice when asked.

pico is 10 exponent -12 while milli is 10 exponent -3 and micro is 10 exponent -6. So milli micro will be 10 exponent -9 which is not equals to pico. I believe milli micro's equivalent is nano.

I use my own recipe based on the formulas given from TNT Audio at http://www.tnt-audio.com/clinica/fluids.html I mix 3 parts distilled water with 1 part isopropyl alcohol and add a few drops of a surfactant (I use Tetenol) and Windex window cleaner as a detergent. My LPs remain static free after cleaning on my KAB-EV1 record cleaner so I have no need for guns like Milty etc. For stylus cleaner, I just use the Audio Technica AT100 cleaning fluid sparingly (once a week) and just use my supplied Shure stylus brush to do general cleaning of the stylus when necessary.

I agree with what the others have posted above. Do choose your shipper carefully. I used UPS 3 years ago when I purchased my Cornwalls from Ebay to be shipped from Ft Launderdale to Singapore and they got dinged at the corners and the crossovers got dislodged. Ensure that the speakers are either crated or double-boxed with loads of foam peanuts or choice of protective material. Enjoy these awesome speakers!

Wow, your FP and Paramours do look good! However, your journey is just beginning Wait till you start tweaking your FP with things like the PDMPS, Sweet Whispers, upgraded coupling caps etc. I believe Voltsecond has a wealth of information on modding the Paramours too. I am sure you will derive many hours/years of enjoyment from this killer combination!

Hiya, I believe NA TTs are still not that common in USA but they have a big following in Japan and even here in Singapore. I actually got mine brand new through Ebay from the NA Australian distributor who had excess stock to clear at a very good price. I have been a fan of NA turntables for some time now. I like the simplistic yet sound engineering approach to the design of the motor unit and platter construction. It is also solidly built and is an excellent match to the rest of my system and the type of music I listen to. Recently saw and heard the Annalog at my local dealer. Wow...great looks and it sounded fantastic through a full Audionote setup and Avantgarde Duo speakers.

The TNT FleXy rack is really good. I built my own version 4 yrs back and it is used to support my 29" TV, VCR, DVD player and Yammie receiver currently. I used MDF painted Hammerite black and 0.7" threaded rods.

Seems that the Bottlehead site is down. Only the forum page is accessible. You might want to post your query there first. http://www.audioasylum.com/forums/bottlehead/bbs.html

I was wondering how did you secure the Solen inductor to the board? Thanks!

Enjoy your new Interspace! Sure is a looker with the upgraded platter. I myself am using the Spacedeck with Spacearm. Awesome TT!

Thanks Al! Mucho appreciated! Fini, I needed the dimensions as I will be sourcing for a MDF board to mount the new components and am frankly just plain lazy to open it up to make the measurements. Also, I want to mount the boards back into the original locations so I have no need of drilling two new holes for the new boards

Hi! I am planning on rebuilding my 1982 Cornwall crossovers soon. Does anybody know what are the dimensions (width and height) for the stock crossover board and the location and size of the 2 screw holes that hold the board to the cabinet? Thanks!

And here is the Type B2 crossover. Hope this helps!

Attached is the Type B crossover.

I personally use a co-axial because those those Toslink cables are just too fragile! They are easily broken if one bends/kinks them too much.

The original design for the Foreplay did come from George Wright but it was tweaked and modified to become a Foreplay. http://www.audioasylum.com/forums/bottlehead/messages/11712.html

Very nice work done on the crossovers! Good, neat and tidy layout. ------------------ Solstice

I use the same wire that is inside my pre/power. Wanted to use my Goertz silver speaker wire but frankly, they are a pain to work with. Whether there is difference or not, it is up to the individual to decide. ------------------ Solstice

Another accessory to check out are the Feet of Silence from Solid Tech. http://www.solid-tech.net/products/feet.htm Check out the Rack of Silence! One of the ultimate shelves alongside the Townshend Siesmic Rack, Infinite Elemente Pagode Reference and the Black Diamon Racing The Shelf. ------------------ Solstice

Hi Klipschguy, Thanks for the clarification! To reiterate, the Type B crossovers DO NO have any of the drivers connected out-of-phase. Using the schematic as reference, the driver connections should be: +/- +/- +/- The Type B2 crossovers have the tweeter and squawker connected out-of-phase resulting in a configuration: +/- -/+ -/+ Do I have it correct this time? ------------------ Solstice

It is not hard to wind your own transformer, but to wind a good transformer is tricky Especially in a tube amp, the output transformer is a very important factor apart from the circuit design. There are many well-established transformer makers in Europe that can custom-make decent high quality transformers: Lundahl-http://www.lundahl.se/ Bartolucci-http://www.triodes.nl/transformers/bartolucci/menu_barto.html Sowter-http://www.sowter.co.uk/ ------------------ Solstice

Okaaaay...now I am really confused. Are the tweeter and squawker connected out-of-phase or in-phase? Perhaps someone from Klipsch can verify once and for all the polarity for the B2 and B crossovers? Puzzled. ------------------ Solstice

Hi Klipschguy, Thanks for the explanation. Much appreciated ------------------ Solstice
