  1. In your case I believe CCR shares in responsibility.
  2. I had some good times during my 36 month rotation there. Got a piece of the Berlin Wall put away somewhere.
  3. I got hooked on Klipsch while stationed in Stuttgart in 1988. Heresy's played thru a Carver c-1 preamp & m-1.0t amp.
  4. I would like to send her something A little more substantial than a The One speaker but she’s in an apartment and I’m worried about the neighbors. Maybe earplugs and Margaritas will work if I send her my back up system.
  5. I listen to the music, I think. My Cornwall’s sound nice, but my ESS with heils sound good too, albeit different. So I’m not sure if it’s the equipment or the music?
  6. I meant the wire, everybody knows when doing electrical work you only use one hand.
  7. Wouldn’t the preamp tubes have more effect on the final sound than the power tubes?
  8. Hello to all, is it possible to purchase a Klipsch The One ll for a PHD student all by herself in a far away land on this forum. She just arrived at her year long intern location and I would like to send her something to play music on. thanks in advance. fyi: she’ll be treating veterans.
  9. Thanks to all for contributing to this endeavor. i’ll consider all before I decide on a course to follow. thanks Jeff!! Cheers!!
  10. Backfire, I have tried them out thru a CD player and a turntable. The sound isn’t too bad, rather nice but veiled. Almost like a a curtain in front of the speakers. Gonna recap, iec, & fuse for now. thanks!!
  11. The photo is from another amp I have but the VOM has a similar tonal circuitry
  12. Maynard, thanks for the input. If I left the tonal controls could I create a tonal circuit with new caps & resistors following a schematic of the tonal pack like the in the attached photo?
  13. Mr. Medwin, Your suggestions are appreciated. I am by no means an expert at this kind of thing but my soldering skills are ok. These 2 amps are in very good condition so your recommendation is understood. My CD player does not have a volume control. I was planning on procuring a tube preamp with no tone controls so I would ultimately get stereo sound instead of mono and use the amps tone controls. i may reach out to you in the future regarding this project. I assume Mr. Percy is a member of this forum? Thanks.
  14. I have 2 of these mono tube amps that I would like to recap and incorporate into a 2 channel system. My question is: these amps only have a phono input. Do I need to alter the wiring to make them play thru a CD player? thanks.
  15. Set the bias after the amp is warmed up. It's small increments, remember that any adjustment on one side will affect the other side. Dude ditch the 5963's and try a balanced Voice of Music branded 12au7 in the center position,Trust me. Outer preamp tubes need to be well balanced and matched.
  16. We were lucky to see them in Los Angeles 2 years ago, great show. The bass player is awesome.
  17. The sonic gods are smiling on me!! Setting the phase to 0 did the trick!! thank you sir!!
  18. Ok, I’ve done that but same level on preamp music sounds smeared. I run Cornwall ll’s Thanks.
