  1. Well STOP THAT, before you hurt yourself!!! [:S] Now, go do some "one-click" shopping before you do permanent damage and I guess you'd better get overnight delivery so we don't have to worry about you!!! [] Dennie (who has not even opened the door to classical music....yet)[*-)] Dennie
  2. That was going to be my next question!!! LOL Good to hear Rich! Dennie
  3. Hey Mike, Watts are Watts! So, you should be Okay! Tube watts and SS watts are all watts, so if you run a tube amp rated at 30 wpc, you should get similar results to the HK amp. . Dennie
  4. Bump! Welcome Niklos from France. I'm not familiar with the amps you are talking about, but hopefully someone who is more knowledgeable about these amps will be along to help soon. Good to have you here, Dennie
  5. Congratulations on the K-horns and the move to high end sound. Try putting the sub in your listening postion and move around the room and find where the bass sounds the best, put your sub there. You should be getting decent bass with the sub and the K-horns. Dennie
  6. You welcome Neighbor! Sounds like he might be one of us and you may get a fine piece of gear. $350 is a fair price IMHO, if its in the shape he says its in. The picture looks good. Every now and then, something really nice pops up on Craigslist. I have found some good deals and with the way the economy is, more and more are popping up, but they usually don't last long. But those are far and few between. Good luck on the Marantz and let us know if you get it and what you think about it. Dennie
  7. Something like that might make sense since the Blu Ray player will not play SACD or DVD-A. What brand is that player? Are you talking to Dave or me? Really dosen't matter, as I know Dave will agree that this is a fine CD player Plus! It is an OPPO. It is a internet only company, so you'll have to order it online. I know many people that have them and are thrilled with the player and the company. They are coming out with a Blu-Ray Player, but it keeps getting pushed back. Click Here for OPPO Dennie
  8. Ahhhggggggg! What I would give for two corners!!! [8o|] Nice find Phil and thanks to Michael for demanding a "story"! LOL I am so jealous! Well, I have La Scala's, so I am not THAT jealous, but still a little jealous! I bet your son's Ipod just made your first listening session that much better. Thanks for sharing the story. Dennie
  9. Welcome Fastlayne, good to have you here. You sound like you want to buy something, so here you go. Get one of these and you will not be sorry. They play CD/DVD-A/SACD/MP3 and more. I have the 970 and love it. It is a great "universal" player and it gets very good ratiings. CD's sound great! LINKY-------> OPPO Dennie
  10. Looks like a Good deal on a Very Nice Integrated amp! I say go for it. But see if he'll take $300 for it. Do watch out for a guy who lives near I-5 and Florin Rd., he listed a Rotel integrated amp for $150 (I think) so I contacted him and he got really weird, so I backed out of the deal. His price was fluctuating and then he didn't know when he would be home. Then wanted to meet in the north area and changed his mind and.............I got far away from that deal. Dennie
  11. Looking great Michael! Those photographs are amazing also! More, more,more.....Please?[<)] Dennie PS Rich, I think we all tried our hand in college, but we don't all post about it!!!! LOL [] []
  12. Oh, and shure recommends 1/2 gram of weight if you use the brush. Here's a picture of my Elac TT with the brush on..... Dennie
  13. My Elac Miracord TT came with one on it. Since I replaced the cartridge with the Shure, I have removed it. The shure has one built in. Shure calls it a "anti-static" brush, but I still have static! So I got a carbon fiber brush from Music Direct. This has taken care of the Static problem....... Dennie
  14. The last time I saw a jog wheel was on a VCR. I will keep my eyes open for a CD player with a jog wheel, but it may be hard to find. Dennie
  15. Hey Mojo, where are you located? That Onkyo comes up with European prices? Are you in the UK? Dennie
  16. Hey Mojo, Did you notice this: Power supply: AC 230V, 50 Hz That is for the HK970 from the HK website.
  17. Thanks Phillip! I don't listen to internet radio much, but if I do, I will know where to go! Dennie
  18. Well, I can't speak to the XLR connectors to the amp. But it will be fine with the RCA jacks going to an empty input on the reciever. You won't hurt your speakers. Remember, turn the volume on the Ipod up and control it with the recievers volume control. Let us know if you have any problems. Dennie
  19. The Ipod puts out low voltage. But lets look at your system. You're running a receiver and an amp? Where are your speaker wires connected? Tell me what your components are. I know you have an onkyo reciever. What else do you have and how is it connected? Dennie
  20. If you get a 1/4" mini jack (Stereo) to RCA connector(stereo) cable, you can run it through the preamp/Onyko receiver. Just use an empty input, like Aux,CD etc. This way you can use your onyko for the volume, processing, balance etc. See the "Ipod to preamp" thread in this section. I purchased a 20' - 1/4" to RCA's for my Ipod. I plug it into the headphone jack and the back of my processor. This way I sit in my favorite chair and use my Ipod. I run the cable along the wall and it comes out at the end table next to my chair. Oh and Welcome to the forum, we are glad you are here. Let me know if this helps, Dennie
  21. Sorry Nate, this thread went right past me! The "lube" should come with a little tube, like WD-40. You should be able to pull the knob off and spray it into the volume/balance control while twisting the control. I am sure there are people who can better answer this question, but..........they must be busy! I hope this helps, Dennie
  22. Don't electrons flow negative to positive? Which way do you point the arrows? I suggest calling the manufacturer of yoru amp. It will give them something to talk about. I think your right! I had better call and see! This audiophile stuff gets more confusing with every post! Jim, Hurry up with production of the "No Fuse Fuse", before Adcom wants their amp back! [*-)]
  23. LOL Jim, I wonder how much we can sell you No Fuse, Fuse for? Lots I bet!
  24. So apparently you cannot tell by ear? Some kind of audiophile you are. Of course, since my Monoblocks run off a dedicated 400A, 3 phase supply I'm calling the company to get pricing on the big ones. Ashamed as I am that I had not taken this into account, I did check and YES! They are all facing the RIGHT direction! Or should the Left one be facing Left? This Audiophile stuff is complicated!!!
