[Heresy III on demo in the UK]

 

Heresy III on demonstration in the UK

 

Arrived yesterday and will be on demo from Monday onwards in South Devon. We can pick you up from the nearby local mainline railway station that is only 4 stops from London.

 

BTW the "Garage" section says no dealers so I hope it's OK here ?

 

Thanks

[Troubleshooting SL1200 tonearm]

I would look carefully to see if the stylus sill has the tiny sharp bit on the end, and also double check the tracking weigh ?

[MIT cables and Klipsch La Scala?]

Fact: exotic phono cartridges often have greater profit margin than cables

 

Trust me, no, no and no again !!

[Klipsch Crossovers]

.

We all have to start somewhere, and we all learn from our experiences and mistakes. rebuy, open them up and let me have a look at the crossover ?

 

Dave

[Klipsch Crossovers]

They are low cost speakers, they will certainly use bi-polar electrolytics for the LF units and some sort of poly for the HF. That is assuming they don't just use a choke only for LF ?

 

Why not have a look ?

Really nice, what/where is the case ?

 

Thanks

[Bipolar Electrolytic cap polarity? Please help!]

If the original woofer electrolytic caps indicate that they are Bi-polar,(which they more than likely are) then it should not matter how you install them with respect to polarity. A bi-polar cap should indicate that it is bi-polar, and it won't have a stripe indicating ground.

 

+1 !

[High-End BS?]

A deputy editor of a HiFi Magazine, after he left that job and perused a different avenue, told me "thank god I don't have to pretend that power cables make a difference anymore" !!

 

However there is a case for low cost screened ones, and that is some equipment emits EMI from their power sockets, using a screened cable stops this spraying everywhere and getting into to other stuff.

 

I can have any cables I want, but I choose to use ordinary and thick low cost power cables.

[Klipsch RF82, how to connect it Right ?]

The only way to lessen the effect of the back EMF is to bi-amp the speakers with and external XO. 

And bi-wiring won't help because ?  We are all waiting to hear ?

 

Dave

[Klipsch RF82, how to connect it Right ?]

If your current speaker wire is sized correctly, corrosion free, tight, etc I shouldn't make a difference.

 

What about the back EMF from the woofer ?

[Klipsch RF82, how to connect it Right ?]

You can Bi-Wire ANYTHING, but it does NOT make a difference

 

 

Really ?  Why ?

[How about a different frequency]

_{The laptop should easily do both frequencies.}

This sounds a good deal, can you point me to where to buy at that price, or just an external link to that product ?

 

Thanks

[Heritage reviews?]

Thanks Guys

 

We work by the river/sea where the Pilgrim Fathers set sail for America !   And we would love to see anyone from this Forum here.  We can even collect you from a nearby mainline railway station that is a no-change line from London.

 

These arrived yesterday, we will be installing them next Friday.

 

Can anyone send me a Klipsch upgrade prices list or a spares price list please ?  I'm having to get every part for some repairs, quoted one at a time ?

 

Thanks

 

Dave

 

[A two-million page website you have to bookmark!]

Could someone with more time than me look up the 300B and early Western Electric amplifiers and speakers please?

 

Thanks

 

Dave  BTW these arrived yesterday

A fantastic resource, thanks !

On stereo amp (like the M90 he is using) per speaker, is bi-amping !

[AK-5 crossover and horizontal wall seal ?]

It would be easy to draw out, so hardly a secret ? 

 

Anyone up for it ?

 

Thanks

[211 amp for Khorns]

The 211 does not have a cathode ? 

[AK-5 crossover and horizontal wall seal ?]

Wall seal, got it !  Thanks

 

Just need the AK-5 crossover schematic now !

 

Thanks

 

Dave

[AK-5 crossover and horizontal wall seal ?]

The Type AK-5 network was introduced to compensate for the improvement in low frequency response resulting from the addition of a horizontal wall seal to the top of the low frequency cabinet.

 

The above is from the web, is it correct ?

 

Two big questions :

 

1. Does anyone have the AK-5 schematic ?

 

2.  What is the new wall seal mentioned ?

 

Thanks
