I have a 10 inch ported sub that just gets swallowed by my room so much so that I didn't bother integrating it with my horn sub. I then later got a powerful and "high quality" sub that integrated will with my trusted horn sub, the result is just bliss. I guess the brand and sub type doesn't...

I have a similar USB laptop cooler on mine. It helps a lot Sent from my AMN-LX9 using Tapatalk

I ready on the net about conditioners and high current amps and went with that without bothering to test it. I did however, read on my amp's user manual to not use an extension between the main socket and the amps. So I came to my conclusion that anything between is an extension :) but for to...

I own this model and a different model by the same brand. One is always on and powers components that I keep on or on standby, the other I switch off from the wall socket. None of my power amps are on conditioners. I only use serge protectors on them. Sent from my AMN-LX9 using Tapatalk

Today is the the first day I actually listened to music with the standby amp since my main stereo amp blew a channel. Im basically running two power amps, the ML for the mains and a Rotel 993 for the center and surrounds. Both amps are rated 200watts. With the ML out of action I've been using...

Subs are one of the easiest things to DIY, especially sealed subs. If you get a good design online and order the required MDF pre-cut you'll just have to glue and assemble and it will be relatively quick. The sub that I tried to integrate the Velodyne with is a DIY sub, it took me about a month...

I have a similar sized room 6x6, except it is isolated instead of open plan. A friend of mine immigrated and gave me a Velodyne 10QR. I tried it together with my existing sub and it didn't last a day, didn't even both to EQ it and move it to a different room where it is now appreciated. I guess...

Roland is my one stop guy. Been taking my stuff to him for some time. Sent from my AMN-LX9 using Tapatalk

Looking at how tight things look in there, labor was the first thing I thought of. But an electrical engineer will probably say you can land a jambo jet in it [emoji28] Sent from my AMN-LX9 using Tapatalk

Roland (spelling might be wrong) used to work for HFX, still does fixes for them. He specializes with ML among other brands. Im based in Buccleuch, Sandton area. Sent from my AMN-LX9 using Tapatalk

No warranty unfortunately, I'm just hoping for the cost within reason part, and conditioning myself for the worst. I'm not really looking forward to start the search for a replacement. I got this amp for a steal, getting something like it, that will also have good synergy with the speakers will...

I'm watching TV in stereo as I type this. It sounds like the voices come from the center channel even though it's off. So far it doesn't sound like the speakers are intact. I'm just hoping Roland will do his magic. And I trust he'll do a proper job than a quick fix. Sent from my AMN-LX9 using...

Swapped the amps. The amp that was powering the center and surrounds is now running the whole front stage. Decided to have a glance of the insides of the ML. And yep, I'm going to bleed to fix it. I forgot how huge it is inside. The transformers are wider than a Blu ray cover. The caps wider...

I also hope I won't have to bleed to get it fixed. Now I have to swap around amps to get the front stage functional till the main amp gets fixed. This is one benefits of separates, the show doesn't have to stop when one component dies.  Sent from my AMN-LX9 using Tapatalk

Do you know the problem you are actually solving? I was just sharing a solution to common problems when streaming zeros and ones. Hence I tried to understand if your problem is the same as the one I dismally tried to describe. Live with the Dac as is for a while first. Sent from my AMN-LX9...

So my wife calls me to the "TV room" after she heard a loud pop after firing the system up this morning. I could smell burnt electronics the moment I walked into the room. I immediately thought "oh no, let it not be the TV, power amp, preamp, dac,... [emoji24]" Everything looked and sounded...

This is what I added and it worked for me, if the problem is as I try to describe. Sent from my AMN-LX9 using Tapatalk

Did the seller say exactly what it was he wasn't happy with? Is it how it sounds or is it random artifacts that are common when streaming through USB? Did you try it with USB? I used to have irritating glitches until I added a small USB filter dongle which I was skeptical of when I made the...

I'm late in the conversation and can't go through all posts unfortunately. But has a Vivere dac been mentioned? I saw one in the classified going for a really good price. That's the only Dac I've tried and owned in its league, so I can't compare it to others in its league. I've owen the MF M1...

I'm also keen. The math is discouraging though, even if we did it daily :( Sent from my AMN-LX9 using Tapatalk
