    Looking to upgrade to horns

    I like how they're unitized. Makes it easier to upgrade, modify, and test. Great idea.

    what are you listening to?

    I love good country. Especially county western. But then then I also listen to a lot of Sleep, Kyuss, Type O Positive stoner and death metal also. Been into The Three Suns lately. They were a 1950s pop group that were very popular. I have a few of their LPs and there's plenty on YouTube...

    Barn Find PL400

    I don't know. I gutted each PL400 and 700 amp, never even plugged them in, then built them with all the WOPL goodies. If you do a forum search for latch up, you'll find quite a bit of info. Somewhere in there is the info for adding diodes. Think it has to do with capacitor charging rates or...

    Barn Find PL400

    Latching up and needs Joe's parallel reversed diodes mod added? Just a guess.

    MiniDsp 4X10HD power jack upgrade.

    The original leads are 20 AWG, and clip onto a header as shown in the photo. Beside that two pin header is a 15 amp rated Phoenix connecter that's a optional power supply connector. I ran 16 AWG silver plated PTFE wire from the new binding posts to the Phoenix connecter. These units were sold...

    MiniDsp 4X10HD power jack upgrade.

    A dual binding post just fits. Used a NOS Radio Shack that's been in the parts box for years. A Pomona binding post base is slightly smaller and would be a easier install.

    THE Crossover Thread

    A R60? Ancient and painfully slow. Even a much newer T410 with a spinning HD is very slow. A SSD makes a T410 responsive and usable. Time to look for a more modern machine. I run cheap used ex corporate Samsung or Liteon SSD's from the companies that resell after data wiping. The cheaper the...

    THE Crossover Thread

    Yup, that's it Kyle. Populates as a 2x8 plugin. Download page shows it as "miniDSP 4x10/10x10 Plugins". Congrats. Once you start running sweeps and impulse measurements with REW, it will be eye opening. Lot's of good info on the MiniDsp site. Think "Home Theater". Have fun, it'll be very...

    Looking for bulbs for a PL5000 series 2

    Technically, they're called "festoon lamps". This term will help you find them. I used LED replacements, forget where I found them. Wasn't about to put hot incandescents back in. Note the half wave rectifier they use in the lamp circuit to drop voltage(thanks to Joe for pointing this out). Also...

    Looks like a keeper. Maybe you or your nephew can work out some sort of trade.

    Amplifiers - How Much Power Do You Need?

    Excellent, concise, and easy to understand. Thanks. I agree with his reasons for biamping and active digital crossovers. Seen this first hand. Build more WOPLs!!!
