hi ludo, i normally give the amps about 20-25 mins at moderate volume. the amps are mounted to huge heatsinks so they take a while to get warm. i have read up about these cermet track pots from bourns. how do they compare to the carbon track i am using.

below is a link to an amplifier project that i have had running for about 6 years. its the A. Riedl pa300. http://www.reber.si/ojacevalniki/PA300/PA300.htm the problem: a single turn trimpot that keeps losing its set point value once it has been adjusted. when the amp was just completed it was...

hi rpm, the oppo bdp-83 meets both criteria. :oppo: i dont' know about any other newer players.

the heart of any amplifier is the  power supply. i would choose a transformer with nice thick windings, a bridge rectifier that can handle the amps (read current) you expect to draw from the power supply(tranformer), and caps that can hold large reserves of power. this is needed for deep...

my solution, htpc with hdmi via reciever. clone/extend displays. wireless mouse. i operate pc from the comfort of my armchair. you can use streaming or hdmi for music/movie playback.

personally i wouldnt buy anything from hifi corp, even if they wrapped it in gilt paper. doesnt matter what buying group they are a part of. they are full of promises before the sale but they took nearly 3 hours to give me a refund on a purchase i found unsuitable and returned the next day. its...
