Thank's for your response,yes&yes,
from responses it
seems that the there is a vast difference in design goals, realising
that the high standards needed to acheive the buliders goal,the
technacial specification in their design will only be visible on a
scope, and their audioble range,can only be heard by the listiner,
baised on the voicing of the bulider,so since a class" a/b" by its very
nature is built on the basis of change its naturally seeks to adapt as
stress isapplied.
The class" a" design is whatever condition, its requirement is to function in its design range.
two different approach to the listner's ear.
thanks

For my edification
does an amplifier exhibit the same charastic wether a 3,5,25 , watt ss or tube played in class "a" as
a 30, 50,125, tube or ss amplifier design for a/b played in class "a"
what would be the defficiences of the class a/b amp. please not trying to irritate or incite
seems to me that one is beign infered i'am looking for clarification.

Question would be what is there about the fotre that you least appreciate,
and your expectation of the cornwalls. the numbers on the front might seem atractive , in the long
run the possibilities and cost of owning cornwalls might just outweight the benifit.effiency will change sound,
amplification might need to be changed, upgrade of network is verry possible and is suggested, size , listening habbits,
after considering these and other factors, if it seems good trade on.

anarchist!
remember that the loads given are always baised on 240volts, also this is not maintained as appliance reach
its opperating temp and turns its self off , diversity.

Verygood point , although i might suggest that a perodic inspection every10 years could prevent some of these situation,
though
it also opens the pockets of those who can least afford to
" how much insurance can the regular joe afford "?.its one of the most feared utility we use , and ironically one of the safest due to its strindgent code. [

i can't remember reading any where that you are experiencing problem
blowing fuses or tripping breakers,i t seems to me in my ignorance to first install an indevidual &dedicated branch circuit including the grounding conductor
from
your panel box, ask your elecrtrician to use #10wire , by the way is
your house in conduit,or some type of sheath cable?hopefully you'll have additional space in your box, if not i"m sure an electrician who is capable will be able to see what load
is beign used on your smallest circuits and safely combine them to free up a circuit for this purpose,
Unless you are using an astsomical amount of power
the demand load that is calculated in an electrical service is never
maxemised,this is why 200 Amps is now beign used verses100 Amp from the
pass. spiking happens in pico secounds and realistically should not
affectyour system. Also have the electrican check and tighten
the conductors in your box especally the neutral , which if loose and
is a part of a multiwirecircuit can in some cases present a higher constant voltage , this would not be good at all.

Some of the changes i've made over the last few
months, has been to change origonal caps to Bec GE cans,this made
a marked difference to clarity. replacing speaker wire, and i do
understand that some are of the opinion that this does not affect
sound. From my own experience there is a improvement, tried ic with
same wire and the SS seem to become laboured where as the bottlehead
pre through acurus amp was a bit sharpry,the ic remained with the
bottlehead.This i
listen to quite often only having to warm up limited the combo and
listening was done mostly at weekend, so was very fimiliar with
sound,now the outlaw pre and amp came together like effortless. Nice
top to bottom.just needed a bit more upper mids, and the last shimmer
from a simbal,which brings me to this point, bought some VCaps
and replace the Bec, these caps Dean made mention of in a tread
thah he thought highly of , and from how they have affected my system i
can say they are nothing to snivle at .because of how the tube gear
sounds ,getting what i am aiming for in the upper mid and the high back
into my ss will make it worthwhile. -
from gaspr post this would be most benifical to those who would like
tohave some type of real life situation to get a clearer view ,there is
a large amount of info to sift through, & focusing on a
particular project would definately benifit some one like me .excelent means of bringing this topic into focus.

Thanks for your responce ! didn't actually consider room treatment as a probable cause,
seems
like a course in engineering needs to be my next course of action,is
there no quick fix in this hi-tech world of accustic. plastered
walls,ceiling, tile floor =wall treatment. -
After replacing caps in cornwall 1 found the sound that you are now getting is a change wherein dewald
tube intregrated amp is sounding like your SS, and bottlehead
pre, relaxed and smooth only a bit more of all you had aim for.ie top , mid more pronounced without beign harsh.
Then only to find that your beloved ss is in serious need of some aditional something, it seem to me that possible the
problem area might be my outlaw 950, which i'm quite fond of.and would have discribe as natural,so too the acurus amp.
my delima how to recapture the signiture of my system without too much upheaval,a great sleeper pre would be nice,
not tube .I have enough to use as reference.
This is about a certain sound that i've been trying to atain and
find it evolving where i least expected it to,what would
you do? -
have you tried revursing the pos&neg on speaker 'a ' never know?

After seeing a post by dean about v cap and his statement that this is now his ''new'' not to desert cap
i ordered some for my cornwalls, and am awaiting their arrival,one question that i have is in reguards to
a mod that was done where in a cap of small value was used in the electrical outlet across the live & neutral.
can some one shed some light as to what effect, ie purpose benefit to be had.
From what i understand the inductor need not be changed as this will not have any adverse effect in the circuit,my
aim is basically to see if there is any advantage between the upgrage that was done by bobcrites , which i can quite easily
live with. my hope is to have improvement in the Midrange, and am trying to achive this without steping into the area of
equiptmemt upgrade.
Thanks for any responce,

if i remember correctly i beleive dean uses a sony 777es

has your circuit breaker tripped since you have had these eqpt in service, if so under what circumstances,
and has it happen since, most breaker will trip at the next standard breaker size ie 15 at 20, 20 at 25, 25 at30
and so on, compolent will not always be at full load so until it trips play on.

beign so close to a really good system i'd tend to hold out a little bit longer, never heard it though from all reports
a
pretty good amp vdr's!!! peach' or which ever one with ht
bypass, a nice cd player, then go for your herasy , i think a
systemon this level would be very satisfying for a long time , move up the food chain. don't flounder at in the bargin basement.

not beign a bass freek is not a viable reason to forego a sub, going full range will yeald apromiment center,
suprise others have not shed more insight, as far as eqpt others will be more able to advise.

Thank's Jim ,
some times we do strange things that yeild unexpected results.

Gil you're quite right on the positioning, and having the speakers
raised, helps to eliminate its lack of height. i had my quartet
up about 8''and even now use them on cornwalls. I've
only heard the forte II when purchasing the quartet. and much
perfered how they sounded.possibly its over emphisis on bass disuaded me from the forte.though still an option and perfrence for many.
-
how does these two reletive different values compare to spec, of k33,? also will network be influence to any reilistic degree
baised on difference in ohm values. jim i beleive you indicated that the speakers sound more balanced,in terms of volume or
baised on low ,mid , hi.
-
i am looking at heresy or cornwall
also consider the Quartet its a solid performer .

As this debate continues i've come realise that i'm in the persence of intelectual giants ,
freely giving of themselves, bloody marvalous.

eric!!!!
an
intresting question although my take is, not heritage or
reference , more the klipsch sound.
the fact that a company that produce a quality product, from 50 plus years ago to be compaired with its product of today,
where
the vision of the inventor is still present today. i don't believe
klipsch will or have, but rather maintain the sound.
my opionion though through limited experiance, 76 corn 90 quartet 2000 ss&sc1
