    So I Got My PL 700, Now What?

    Something is horribly incredibly wrong. I can't even begin to describe how bad this sounds.

    So I Got My PL 700, Now What?

    Damn I'm stupid. They fit. Just gotta go get the 2 wheel dolly and carry this thing over there. Kidding. It's heavy but not that heavy. I'll let y'a'll know if it works.

    Newbie Needs a Budget Preamp

    I have a PL700, some 901s with eq, a Soundcrafters EQ, and a powered subwoofer. I want to play my iPhone and Sirius radio with this. Is there some preamp I can get by with temporarily in the $100 range? Used is fine with me, and I plan to get a better one later. Money is super tight now.

    So I Got My PL 700, Now What?

    This is the modified unit with no meters I was asking about. It's a heavy sucker! I was thinking I could hook up my iPhone and/or Sirius radio with a cable I have, with a mini headphone jack on one end and RCAs on the other. The amp has sockets that are bigger, I'm guessing they are the same...

    Using Equalizer as Preamp?

    No manual on the 901 eq, and the impedance isn't listed on the back. I have one of those adapter cords, I'm glad I can hook up directly to the amp. Would you recommend the PL4000 for a preamp for what I want to do? I'm on a pretty tight budget, so I'll have to wait a bit and shop around. I'll...

    Using Equalizer as Preamp?

    Hey Fitz if you want to come all the way to Texas you are more than welcomed! Thanks Bubba, I'll try that. I almost always listen to satellite radio, occasionally if I want to hear something specific I'll pull it up on youtube with my Iphone. Not exactly audiophile grade stuff, I know, but...

    Using Equalizer as Preamp?

    I have a Souncraftsman SE450 equlaizer and a PL700 on the way. I want to run my series I Bose 901s with this(I have the correct Bose Active Equalizer for the speakers). Can I plug my satellite radio, MD player, etc into the eq and then to the amp, or do I need to use a separate preamp? I also...

    Phase Linear 700 With No Meters?

    Thanks guys. I am new to "vintage audio". Sorta, I was a kid when this stuff was new, I wanted it but couldn't afford it! I will be getting with you on the face plate and meters. I said to Hell with the naysayers and got some Bose 901 series I speakers and the correct EQ, and a Souncraftsman...

    Phase Linear 700 With No Meters?

    Good, I'll go ahead and get it. How can I determine mfg date? I wonder how difficult/expensive it would be to put on the correct front plate and meters?

    Phase Linear 700 With No Meters?

    But looking from the rear, it looks like a 700? I have never owned one, so I don't know what to look for, but I remember "back in the day" I really wanted one!

    Phase Linear 700 With No Meters?

    It's the one in the ebay ad . I don't have it yet, but for $250 I went ahead and bought it without researching, not very smart I admit. Is this a Series I? Is it unusual to have a blank face plate with no meters? I am not very knowledgeable on these; I remember them back in the day having meters...

    Bose 901 Speaker Review

    Hey Dennis thanks for the response. The guys who can spend seven thousand dollars on Pear speaker cables bash Bose, but I have my house set up 70s bar style; I have a coin-op pool table, a vintage video game cabinet, and lots of early beer-bar memorabilia. My ears are't super particular...

    Bose 901 Speaker Review

    Amazing! A thread on the internet with GOOD things to say about the 901. I realize this is nearly a year old, but I just dusted off a set of series I, but hte RCA cables at Radio Shack are too big to fit the EQ. Anyone know where I can find the old fashioned style?
