Hi Marantz, I've used Al's electrical motor repairs in Honeydew a few times. They've rewound one of my lawnmower motors and a pool pump as well as replaced bearings. They are very reasonable and do a great job. I'm not sure if they'll do something as small as a jigsaw motor, but it's certainly...

Yup, excellent stuff!!  :2thumbs: I agree with Pappa, slower pans across the speakers and display them for just a bit longer, we want to see those drivers. Like looking in the engine bay of a Ferrari F12..

Those are some impressive looking subs.  :thumbs: This one is just ridiculous, down to 11Hz!!! https://www.powersoundaudio.com/products/tv42-ipal-1

Great stuff Cross_over!  :thumbs: I'd recommend putting in a speaker protection circuit of some sort, just in case one of the output transistors goes bang and sends a high current DC signal to your speakers. Something like this...

Hi Naboo, My wife is also keen if you have some spare.  :thumbs:

Yup, very good, use them for most of my clients, co.za domains are very cheap through them, much cheaper than if you go through co.za themselves.

Nchebe might be able to assist

:giggle: Sounds like the sub bottomed out. Just don't push it any harder otherwise there might be muddy effects from the flared port.

Ja, a calibrated mic will be better if you want to do full room correction, but there's certainly no harm in using it as is for now and seeing if you do notice a difference before and after. The response of decent mics usually don't deviate a huge amount from uncalibrated to calibrated.

El Sid might be able to comment. He borrowed my FS-150s for a couple of months, although he has the Exclame 100. The FS-150s have big bass, so unless you're a bass head, the sub won't be necessary.

Depends what you want to do with it. If you want to use it for building crossovers or other precision work then a calibrated mic is a must. If you just want to EQ your sub then high precision isn't necessary and you can use it as is.

The Denon amp may still have the previous owners Audyssey/EQ settings set. Check in the menu for something like factory default settings and reset it to default. That'll be a good starting point. Also, as Winslow has said, if the primary use is for movies, a sub is essential. (Two subs even...

:giggle: :giggle: Definitely a SETi amp!

Naah, can't possibly be. UFOs are only found in America.

Yup, definitely good enough for an entry level surround system.  :thumbs: Infinitely better than a Mgongo or similar trashy system. (And probably cheaper too!)

Yup, that's a silly amount of money to pay for something that isn't a huge upgrade from a 85" 4K TV costing R37K at Makro. There's hardly any 8K content available at the moment, and going from 4K to 8K on consumer sized TVs will not be much of an improvement.  I think 8K is going to be the...

El Sid might have some after all the vintage amps he's restored recently.

Hmm, not sure why you went to so much trouble servicing the radio. You should've just posted it to: Loewe Radio Service, P.O. Box 1320, Cape Town.

:giggle: :giggle:

^ +1 Exactly as Shonver has said, or the other possibility is that your amp is defective, perhaps the power supply is faulty and isn't able to deliver the rated power and starts clipping at a lower voltage than it was designed to do.
