    New Member: Planning my PL400 rebuild

    The latter... I have an SE variac. Great American quality. I got mine for a song since the outer wrapper was slightly dented. A few minutes to make a wooden last in the circle shape and it was back to looking brand new again. Good luck with yours Jon

    That's how I do it Matt. Been many years since I have done so but that is how I did it. I was a Constantines customer for years.

    TV LG or Samsung ?

    I have had poor reliability experiences with both LG and Samsung, both with very low hours on them. Both crapped out much sooner than expected. I replaced the planar board in the 60" Samsung and it brought it back to life for a while, it sits off much of the time. Now it died again so I will...

    THE Crossover Thread

    This is the phase-gain plot for the OPA134 This is the phase-gain plot for the LM4562 You can see that National is playing some tricks internally to regain some phase margin (the squirrely dip in the phase lag). They did this to gain a slight performance advantage at lower frequencies. I...

    Crown Macro Reference Monster amp rework.

    It costs money to make a good amp, but not that much...The eye candy does add a bunch of cost. That is why McCormack, Bryston, others don't have any eye candy. The time spent on eye candy in the Model ONE was ridiculous. As Tom Petty said something like, One of the hardest parts...

    2 NICE Pickering Carts with new retips on the D625 styli.

    Studio tables had a clutch on them. Didn't rotate until clutch engaged. Arms were manual, you put it close to the song break and sometimes had to back up the LP by hand to get it in the dead zone. LP still not rotating. When you wanted the song to start, the clutch was engaged. That is the...
