Ditto. I need the visceral impact only a subwoofer can give when it comes to movies. What I look for in music and movies when it comes to sound is totally different.

GE, you are the one that got me interested in this whole thing when you linked that altec peerless SUT a few weeks back. thanks for chiming in!

I checked that one out from the library twice, then bought an ex-library copy on abebooks. Still haven't read it.

nooooooooooooo

dunno.

They're supposed to be a good cheaper alternative to Altec-Peerless.

good question. because cinemags are spoken of so highly when used in conjunction with the dl-103?

Also it looks like capnbob's has an additional switch: ground/lift. I have no idea what this does.

So the next step for me after I run the Bugle for a while will be to try a SUT with an MM tube phono stage. Of course I'm already looking for an appropriate SUT, and it appears that the Cinemag transformers are within my price range, and supposedly they have a synergy with the DL-103 line of carts. There are two builders I've come across. anumber1 on agon and capnbob on eBay. I have read that anumber1 is a popular guy on aa, but I've never spoken with him. Capnbob responded to a question I had quickly last night, and he regularly sells Altec and Cinemag SUTs which always go quickly. However, capnbob's price is $85 more then anumber1's. Also, anumber1's layout of ins on one side and outs on the other would work better for my setup. Is there any reason I should go with capnbob's above anumber1's? Bob's looks nicer, but if I get a SUT it will be tucked behind my turntable anyway, so looks aren't important. Thanks!

yup yup. the newer release, "three from the vault", is another great one, great pigpen show. has an awesome "hurts me too", which is one of my favorite pigpen tunes. "one from the vault" is still my favorite of the series though. i just can't get enough of that band intro -> help on the way.

hell yes. speaking of badass hbo shows, I need to get The Wire Season 4, especially now that the series is about to rap up.

STFU AWESOME!!! :prettyprincess:

ooh, so the S is for scofield, I get it. I bet that was badass. MMW is one of those acts that just gets better and better.

way too much lol for a Monday night, for sure.

thats what they are, i still haven't gotten those black things out of my B speaker terminals.

Hey Stax fans- Got my SRD-7mk2 hooked up, listening to my normal bias lambdas now. damn these cans are still amazing, even after a few weeks listening to the OII. eventually these cans will get "discovered", and prices will increase. for now they are a stone cold bargain. Glad I'm on Team Stats in '08!

nope

muhahahahaha!!!

yup, nothing. No worries about being obvious, I'm open to all suggestions, but I've already tried, and the binding posts can't be unscrewed all the way out. I'm having a real hard time getting at them. I've tried to make a hook out of a coat hanger and see if I can get enough force to push them out, but so far no go. They may be stuck in there. I've run bare wire out of this speaker terminal for months with no problems, sounds great, so functionally they are fine.

So I recently bought some short speaker cable from BJC terminated with banana plugs. I figured I'd have no trouble using the banana plugs the B speaker terminals on my 840A since it was super easy hooking up my 22L's with banana plug terminated speaker wire. Lo and behold, I'm just here trying to setup my SRD-7/mk2, and the fucking plugs won't go into the terminal. A quick flick of the flash light reveals: what the fuck? why the hell would cambridge put little pieces of black plastic in JUST the b terminals so banana plugs can't be used there? I'm no expert on speaker amps, could somebody please tell me what the fucking point of this is so I can stop saying fuck? you can see the dents I made while I was trying to push the plugs in. I'm just going to cut off the banana plugs and strip the wire, but shit, I paid for the banana plugs, and I like their clean look. back to bare wire I guess, I don't see anyway I can get that black plastic out of there.

hey so, how about that HFI-780 vs. Ed9 comparison? still looking for some knock around exercise bike phones, wondering if the HFI-780 would fit the bill. do they rock out?

nope, no ridiculous drum solo, no guitar battle. sounds like you had a great show!
