I don’t post much around these parts. But I still lurk a lot and comment on topics I’m comfortable with. I’m at a crossroad where I’ve been stuck for a bit sonically. I think it’s front end and amplifier upgrade time. But can’t decide… from a audible standpoint this is just ridiculous. I dabble...

I came across this while perusing the tube of you. Although it's not English, it's a very good documented process. Hopefully it helps someone.

Just spent some time making these.Canare L-2t2s, and what they say is real wbt -0144 from that one site. I've made a few others with neutrik rean nys373, and I like the neutriks better. Easier to work with if you have fat fingers.

First off I would like to say I've been holding off on this thread for a long time. And in no way am I bashing any single person, it's the sound. Just a general observation about this natural sound. I have had my ca-2010 gone through. Can't remember when, over a year +) Picked up a ct-1010 In...

What is the proper name for the dual cartridge alignment jig? And what models did it fit. I can't recall exactly.... Picture is not mine, but I found one from when I had my dual 1219.

After a wait that felt like forever. (Since around I think 07/08) I got my grubby hands on a m4. Together at last.... And to boot, I have anotherr m1 amplifier in route. So if it survives shipping, I'll have two!

I'll admit, my previous daily driver is a 02 ford f150 fx4, But I was seeking a Eco friendlier companion, and a 88 daihatsu charade cls popped up on craigslist. It needed a few things so I spent some time making it mechanically sound. But then, I fell in love. With a 3cylinder 5speed. I...

Picked them up from a university that used them to teach. Kind of taken back by the 200v input. They were running them easy. Takes a 12ax7 input tube and 6bq5 output...

Paid for it in full. Used of course, but I have excellent bartering skills. Hopefully it turns out to be a good car. Got tired of a sports car, went to a sort of luxury car.

Picked up a maggy in barter town a little while ago, thinking about changing the output transformers and doing some basic mods. Here's what im thinking.. I have a pair of opt's from a pilot 602 that are 7500k and was used with el84's. should be a simple swap, but would it improve anything...

Anyone know?

Reason for the title? We all have that piece of equipment that had a sound signature we tried to find in other gear. In some cases we sell said item, only to never find it agian. Well, here is a positive story. I got it back! My Epicure M1 amplifier. Martin, if you ever read this...

Is it possible to add two se opt transformers to this amplifier? I'm not too familiar with this circuit tis the reason I ask. I think I can leave the front end alone (12ax7) , and add to it. I know it may seem like a basic mod, but I'm not that talented yet. Wish I could go push pull with it...

Picked these up recently..... Anyone else own anything from them? I have a feeling more interconnects will come.

Got these for free from a friend. They would make good garage speakers. Built well, lack in the low frequencies. Havent seen to many pictures online of them so i figured i'd post some for everyone. In no particular order.

Am i okay to use this chart for the value? Damage done... Hopefully just a quick fix. Think I should throw some carbons back in, or something more up to date..... The one with the silver tolerance band and the gold band one under it ( under the yellow wire, just above the yellow red)...

It spins freely when no power is applied, and wont spin for nothig when unit is on. Purchased it last season, and of course the warranty has run out. your thoughts please.... http://i1201.photobucket.com/albums/bb360/jleaja13/fd30c439.mp4 Justin

Here's a few pictures. Urban square foot gardening. Started like this. Then it started raining and raining, and was getting flooded out. I was worried about all my seeds washing away. S I spent $20.00 and put up a PVC/plastic hood on her. The sides and top are removable. I do have...

It came in pieces. Always take a chance when dealing online. Looks like it was in the midst of a total refurb. Gentleman said he plugged it in and got faint sound out of it. Cant see how. Theres no way id plug this thing in. Even if i seen blue tape through the bottom cover, and the relay...

To be brought back up to snuff? (Recapped, aligned, repaired from shipping damages ) Anyone have any recommendations? Justin

Refrence speaker? I have a pair of 100's (goldring tweeter), and a pair of model 5's(aluminum faced tweeters, will probably be used over the goldring). I have some good binding post's laying around and some good 10uf caps. But I gots questions... 1) does the 8" mate better with the...

Could anyone help me design a converter to go from 74vdc to 12volt dc? I need it to run a 4 amp fan, Im a locomotive engineer by trade and have no 12v plugs to run a fan. However people do design converters, but they run anywhere from 300-1000 dollars. And I know it can be done for less than...

To a single driver, full range. 2a3 or 300b setup..... :tears: stuff just sounds so good, and looks good. :no:
