Yesterday went to a dealer and heard a couple of excellent high-end systems. Probably not an unusual experience for most of you but it was for me.

I got for almost-free a set of Bertagni SM300 flat panel speakers. They pretty much rule, as many may know they're 4-way speakers made of huge polystyrene panels and they sound great, but the HF driver in each is a little piezo(?) tweeter, and one of them is not working.

I hooked up another tweeter (of a different design) in parallel briefly and got sound, so it's gotta be the tweeter itself, nothing is wrong in the crossover etc.

I have a vintage (circa 1978) Toshiba stereo component system. The amp has two analog wattage gauges or meters, one for the left channel and one for the right. The little light bulb (not really a bulb) in one of the meters has burned out and I would like to replace it. I have tried searching for a replacement gauge to no avail. So now I would like to try to replace the lamp but I don't know what to call the mini lamp inside the meter.

Hello,

I've a friend willing to part with around $3000 Australian dollars for a set of floorstanding speakers, and I wonder if any of the more experienced heads here might have some suggestions. I was thinking Krix Neuphonics or a pair of focals.

Any advice appreciated.

Hey, I recently have acquired a tiger ensemble amp, I was wondering if anyone could tell me anything about it? and is there any way to hook up my MP3 player to the AUX. out?

Thanks, Greg

Any thoughts on this particular amp? I can pick it up locally, original owner, mint condition, original packaging, & manual. Any idea what they bring on the used market? Thanks.

With the hardon? Maybe it doesn't grow until it's inside....the cabinet? http://www.feastrex.com/dimension5pro.html Didn't someone mention how some company was doing some custting edge stuff, (KBK?) that he wouldn't explain, cus' all them secrets? This thing sure do look similar, from another company.

I am using a pair of Audioquest type 4 cables, which I bought in 1993. Is there any reason to think they have deteriorated in any way over the years? Are the "type 4" cables Audioquest sells today the same as the type 4 from 15 years ago?

Thanks for any advice.
