As per subject line, could any of yous suggest which product I need to look for that will work on the Arcam amp? First prize if I could find a unit that works my NAD 502 cdp as well... Thanks.

I don't know how many of you gents have had the pleasure of visiting The Listening Room in CT, but I would strongly suggest you make a plan to pop in if you haven't yet. And I'm sure Rod wouldn't throw you out if you're not there to buy something... What a relaxed vibe, not to mention the shiny...

Been looking at a set to buy, but don't have any experience with the brand nor have I heard them make music before for that matter. Any thoughts or experiences? 1) Would they be easy to drive (90dB claimed, 8Ohm impedance) for my DIY 10W push-pull valve amp? 2) Bass extention? 3) Are they...

I've acquired a set of these today for a box of chocolates (heehaa Forest Gump!), and I've got some questions: 1. Are they any good as fullrangers? (had me some 8's a while ago which I wasn't impressed with...) 2. Can the "surrounds" be fixed ala Resonant Frequency? (Would it change the...

Guys, please help.  :help: My valve power amp blew her mains fuse tonight whilst I was listening to some music. I thought, OK, let's just change the fuse and she'll be good to go...so she blew that one two! Any ideas?! The fuse is a 1A glass type for what it's worth. All components used are...

For my dear bud Kent, as well as Mr BWS, frikkie and others: The Beauty is my wife (with Stian @ 2.5kg) and the Beast (with Leander @ 2.7kg) is me - luckily its only my paw that can be seen  :tongue:. Born at 35 weeks on 5/7/2012 at 11h40 in Panorama after wife's been in hospital for 9...

Mr Andre V, I've done by part as can be seen in photos...what to do next? Chassis build and woodwork I can do, but what do I know about them wires, besides pulling me own one?  :help: How do you like them apples?! Not too bad for an underpaid roof sheeting marketer I hope...

Got my paws on these today. Had a different Blaupunkt set way back, but with identical drivers. I remember it used to sound good on my first NAD 3020 those days. 10inch woofers with oval-shape mid and tweeter. Please note the enclosure/shield over tweeter. I played them tonight using my...

Hi Andre, Please check out these pics of the discussed drivers. They are TwinAxiom 8 made in 1974! What say you, sire? Is it  :clap: or  :puke:? They must be fullrangers judging by the range (40-18000Hz), 8ohm impedance and seems about 7.8" diameter. I'll have to pull a Google for...

Anyone familiar with this vintage amplifier? Bought one from Andre V about 4 years ago and eventually sold it like the fool I am. Then about 18 months ago Riaan from Resonant Freq gave me one when I fetched a repair job. Couldn't believe my luck! But since then I had to take it back to my local...

Hi guys, My NAD 3150 amplifier has, like most NAD integrateds, a impedance switch at the back. Do I run the amp in 4ohm or 8ohm mode? And what is the difference sound-wise? My Celestion speakers are 8ohm... :) Thanks

Anybody had experience with this particular Sanyo amp? (don't say it: Sanyo?!  :point: :puke:) It's supposed to be Sanyo's stab at audiophile grade gear. Can't find anything useful on the net, besides some good recommendations on another av forum. I own one of these and I'm very impressed...

Opinions please gents? I cannot go without my tone controls - I've tried a Nad without it, a Naim, and even the 'audiophile' Pioneer A400. And I've always felt that I needed to adjust the sound. It's obviously my hearing that is the culprit, but here is the interesting part: I never add, but...

Hi, has anyone come across or know anything about these amps? Its a silver-faced jobbie (obviously), with wooden enclosure all around. Solid state. Manufactured around '75-'76 I reckon. Size about 370mm in width and 200mm in height. Think styling of the first AR and Sugden amps... My dad owns...
