    AR25

    Thank you for the responses Agreed : checking for holes would be the first step - If no holes are present then I will leave as is. If holes are present I will source the correct screws (The current ones are threaded ) and screw them in nice and tight.

    AR25

    Greetings! I have obtained what I believe to be a pair of well preserved AR25's in perfect working order, although I have noticed that there are holes for up to 8 screws to secure the Woofers but only 4 are being used in each speaker in my case, going online I see that there are many AR25's...

    Looking for more SLAM in my system

    No, I dont think so, the stands are a no name brand bought from HFX a 100 years ago. I realise I need proper support for my equipment, I will get there someday. Your advice on the ML331 power Amp currently on 2 seperate Granite slabs (front and rear) on the floor(Carpet) or should I place it...

    Looking for more SLAM in my system

    Wayne has nothing to do with the Granite nor the Sorbathane, It is just me trying things out, last night I got rid of the Sorbathane under the CD player and I cant really say I noticed a difference, these tweaks are probably all in our minds anyway.... The Granite is their to add mass to the...

    Looking for more SLAM in my system

    My sytsem is (still) a ML38S pre ML331 power, Rotel rcd970 cd player, Project RPM6, B&W802N in a dedicated 6x4 room. A while ago I posted a plea for help for solving a poor bass problem. Wayne of HFX paid me a visit and within an hour or so had the system and the room sounding 100% better. ( He...

    Advice needed. Nice system poor sound

    Thanks for bringing us back on track Joel. As far as oxidation is concerned, it has been mostly ruled out as the dynaco is single ended whilst the 38s has been connected via balanced XLR's. Joel is right, right now changing the pre has made an improvement and its good enough for me right now...
