Hi,

I just bought a moon 700i Integrated amp.and only since then, I can ear a little noise (zzzzzz) when I am within 6 inch of the tweeter (both side). My speakers are Focal Alto Utopia, that I bought 1.5 year ago
I can ear the noise when there is no music playing or when the amp is at standby.

The shop who sold me the amp is telling me this is normal with this kind of equipment, the amp is so sensible and tightly built. Apparently, they also called Moon and the confirm that it is normal.

Hey guys! i'm new to these audio stuff. So i was wondering if anyone would help me out? i'm looking for good computer sound system for the price of $500. I am not an avid gamer but i do play games. However, i do listen to A LOT of music,mostly metal, rock and blues. Basically,more emphasis is on music than gaming. Thx a lot guys. Really appreciate all your inputs. And Merry Christmas to all! =D

I am playing with my iMAC. I seldom use it as the rest of my computers are PC's. I have removed 90% of the programs and files from it and have installed Channel D Pure Music software...Now the question. It appears I can run a Toslink optical digital out from the iMAC. I need to run a Toslink cable maybe 25 ft to my DAC...I have never tied to run an optical cable so far...

I know the optical cables are less than optimum but my DAC only has an optical input unused. What is the limit for a Toslink conection??

I hope to see some of you at the 2011 THE Show. Our speakers are classic, but not that old!

Hello,

I cleaned an old record that I had just purchased with my normal cleaning regimen (MOFI Super Deep Cleaner + Nitty Gritty record cleaning liquid on the machine). When I played the record, at the end when I raised the stylus, I noticed it was covered with a black, ash-like substance (like cigarette ash). It completely covered the stylus so that for a second I thought the stylus had broken off.

I then recleaned it with MOFI's enzymatic cleaner followed by a steam clean, and then the Nitty Gritty again. On playing the record, I had the same result, just slightly less ash.
