This is a whole lot of fun:

It sure beats cinder blocks, about which my father warned me many years ago.

The devotion over at FMtunerinfo for that tuner, the L07-T, is almost idolatry...

Years ago, I bought one of those from a bookstore which was going out of business. Didn't keep it, though. I remember it being VERY heavy for a tuner.

There's really no telling where a simply titled thread on this site will take you...

This is a very popular Zen story about the two monks and a young woman that teaches us to drop our emotional baggage. Two monks and a young woman Zen story Two Buddhist monks, a senior monk, and a junior monk were walking through the forest. They came across a river flowing through their path...

That's Redneck Engineering, and reminds me of how my Volvo's brake lights are actuated. It saved me about a thousand bucks...

It took the caption for me to figure out what that was. Get some new slippers.

Agreed - I've seen too many auto-reverse decks with heads permanently askew.

I have no idea how to fix ferrofluid problems...

Two feet? That fairly begs for monoblocks.

Cool...how do they sound?

First, of course, switch the speakers and hear if the problem is in the amp or in the speaker. Second, determine if the problem could be a bad crossover cap. I always suspect caps. Caps are evil. Third, if it really bothers you, shop for a replacement tweeter.

Unless your receiver has a preout, you will need a preamp...hopefully a good one. Anyway, welcome to, IMHO, the best audio site on the www!

I made a pair out of some sorbothane scraps for a couple of preamp tubes that don't run hot, but I don't know if they work. It was cheap, at least.

If I haven't posted this before, I should have.

Having seen graphs of digital sampling points superimposed on the DAC'd analog waveforms, I could see that the bass notes got good definition, with lots of data points to define the wave. Treble notes, on the other hand, had much fewer data sampling points to define the wave that was to come...

Yeah, I leaned that lesson...and it can happen with not just speaker cables, but with interconnects and even the power cords of other components.

That makes my -61dB seem fairly loud, but what is a "femtoamp"?
