Can you hear a faint "background" ringing or hissing in your ears when it is dead quiet?

Reader BeeJay DeeJay would like to know if readers can hear a faint "background" ringing or hissing in their ears when it is dead quiet? If so, what is the extent of that hiss or noise, and is it bothersome when listening?

Kyocera Receiver Repair?

Forums

I'm trying to find someone who can repair or assist me in repairing a Kyocera R-661 receiver. The left channel seems to go on & off (mostly off lately.) I took a chance and bought a small septate amp thinking it was the amp. That didn't work, so I know it must be something simple in the pre-amp area. (I had the same problem with the separate amp hooked up.) Also, anyone with access or info on a service manual for this model. Any ideas, anyone? Thanks!

When I attended the <A HREF="http://www.stereophile.com/news/120406language">2006 GuangZhou Hi-Fi Show</A> in China, it seemed as though most of the Asian-built loudspeakers I saw were huge, astonishingly efficient, and had horns. When I walked into Usher Audio Technology's room, however, Paul Chen was making music happen with the Usher S-520s ($500/pair).

Interesting interview with Lloyd Walker, Walker Turntables

I found this article very interesting. Contained in the interview is a mini biography.

Lloyd was a control engineer, start up engineer for nuclear power plants, chemical plants, refineries, pharmaceutical plants, etc.

Good information on his design philosophies.

Cheers.
Steve
