    Top 10 Most Influential Speakers of the last 50 years!

    I understand the inclusion of Bose, but twice? Group them as one and shove Altec in there. Or even their roots, Western Electric.

    Perhaps you need to re read my post. That is Morrow Cables claim, not mine. I have been an electrician since 1979. I KNOW better

    Wall outlet question

    Yes, they do. My comment was pointed at Morrow Cables, that sells them claiming they are heavier duty than their 15 amp receptacle. Simply not true. The interior parts are the same.

    Wall outlet question

    Why should I upgrade my listening room receptacles? The typical receptacles in your home are rated at 15 amps. The receptacle we offer is rated at 20 amps which means that it contains larger metal elements for better power transfer and clamping to the plug that is inserted into it. These are...

    Why do AH's own or wanting to own separate amps whether they need them or not?

    Harmon looks at mass marketing. I am thinking more along the lines of high end, performance at any cost type crowd. I do think the tuber crowd would run, but someone who would just say "Don't mess with it as is."

    Why do AH's own or wanting to own separate amps whether they need them or not?

    Why do AH's own or wanting to own separate amps whether they need them or not?

    Good question. What if the Salon 2's were available from the factory with a matching plate amp of the same high caliber, with built in DSP to optimise it , and sold as a set. Keep in mind, you try them, and they knock your socks off. Would you consider them? (Just curious).

    When to Add External Amplification to an A/V Receiver

    I rely on my ears, and the educated ears of others. Measurements are also helpful. I thought I had a good ear until I met a transducer engineer. He makes me feel deaf at times. LOL

    I have plans to buy a Samsung 65" flat 4K later this year. I just hope 4K does not fail like 3D, which I never cared for.

    Loudspeaker Myths: Separating the Scientific Facts from Science Fiction

    Humans as a species are reluctant to change. Industry is slow to change. Change is NOT always good. A DSP in the hands of a novice is just an elaborate tone control. (More later when I ponder the subject longer).
