    Rotel power amp's operating temperature

    Just out of interest, I had two RB970BX's which I thought would run rather hot after extended playing. I set up a Infrared camera and most would be surprised of the results. If it's hot on the outside then inside is way hotter, naturally that sounds like common sense, but I mean if the outside...

    To much power?

    Really enjoying them now, have to agree with Rodney_gold. Although they sound good with smaller amps, I didn't expect the sound difference with the much bigger amplifier. Really does sound much better.  I think the Klipsch are great speakers, but I don't know if they speakers I will keep for...

    To much power?

    The intention was to upgrade to the more powerful amplifier so that when I want to get bigger speakers, then I would have enough amplification to drive what ever I got in the future with ease. Although I am really enjoying the Klipsch, I do believe that I will outgrow them eventually.  For now...

    To much power?

    Not really, I don't listen to it at full tilt, but every now and again you don't mind alittle volume. You can't really listen to them 'flat out', it will literally blow you out the room. I just checked, even at a really impressive volume, there is very little cone movement, so I guess this is...

    To much power?

    Just out of interest, I recently changed from a Rotel RB97BX ( 180W RMS Mono ) x 2 to the Rotel RB1070 ( 330W RMS Mono ) x 2 and I am driving Klipsch RF 82's.  Although there definately is a better sound coming out of them with the two 1070's in mono, can I do any long term damage by running...

    Watches.

    Love watches. But names such as Zenith, Girard and the like not to popular around South Africa.  I love the older classical look.  Anyone got a Zenith Port Royal El Primero they willing to part with?

    klipsch vs Energy

    I got klipsch and I moved originally from B&W.  The klipsch are good speakers but it depends on what type of music you predominantly listen too.  The tweeter can be alittle bright at times, but the rest makes up for it

    Subwoofer question

    So in theory, if done properly it should be just as good as a well designed port except the size of the box would be smaller?  I like this idea, would be interesting to hear people's views on how they sound compared to the normal ports that we normally have.

    Subwoofer question

    Ok, makes alot more sense.  Thanks alot Scrarfussi  :thumbs: So, it basically acts as a 'port' for enclosures that are to small to have one

    Subwoofer question

    Ok, please excuse me if this is a dumb question, but here it goes anyway. I was looking at these subs that have one active speaker ( basically self powered ) and then a passive radiator???  What is this?  Is it another speaker that needs an external amp connection or is it just a section that...

    Advice - Subwoofer

    Definately no laughing matter that, I have heard how such a tragic situation has caused people to get severely frustrated and take it out on a bottle of brandy or a good whiskey :dop: I did play with the settings quite alot.  I have already packed the sub up but there were three settings if I...

    Advice - Subwoofer

    I did play with the settings quite alot. Although it did get better, it didn't feel like good Rand for Sound, if that makes sense.  If I take the difference in sound the other sub I have makes, the same can't be said for the 608.  I am also limited in where I place the sub, so that makes it even...
