Sorry to be completely naive about home audio, and i'm sure you've answered this question countless times before but i have always dreamed of having a good speakers/components to complement my love of listening to music (all kinds)-i m going to have about 5000 to spend and have looked at vandersteens, b& ws and others-i know that ultimately it's what i feel sounds best, but i'd love some suggestions from you experts on what your opinions are-any advice would help!

thanks

Hi All. I have a Thorens TD-150 MKII since it was new (well almost, talked a kid out of it in college after three months of drooling over it). I replaced the tonearm wires with the proper 'hair', color coded wires and also the RCA cables. Al this improved the sound somewhat significantly. But here's the rub-with the arm at rest and the volume gain turned all the way up, I have almost no noise/hum. Turn on the motor and I have much hum going on at even under half volume and I can hear it on silent passages or in-between cuts. I never had this problem before but the turntable IS old now.

My dad gave me this computer from his work, they got all new ones so he gave me one of the old ones, he was pretty sure it had a sound card.

my problem is i have no sound.
i have tried several things, i have headphones pluged into the back where the speaker port is, i have checked to make sure it is in tight, i tried to get into volume control but it doesnt let me get in, when i try to get in through the recorder, the tabs for playback and record are unaviable.

any ideas....

thanks

A client of mine wants help with her home stereo system. She found a nad C352 power amp for 575$ and a pair of acoustic energy Evo 3 speakers 650$. She wants my opinion since I am an audio professional. Somehow I can't convince her that I know nothing about this thing. Please help, any suggestions, other brands in the same price range?

Hey guys,

I am getting into the mobile karaoke business and just cought a snag. I really dont understand all this RMS, 4 vs 8 ohm crap. Here is what I got.

GEM SOUND EXA2950 Power AMP

2000 watts peak output
1000 WATTS RMS @ 4 Ohms Bridged
500 watts Per Channel RMS @ 4 ohms
250 watts per channel RMS @ 8 ohms

I also bought a pair of 15" 700watt ADI Sound w/ 7x9 horn tweeter.

350 watts RMS w/ 700 watts peak.

Frequency response is 45 to 20,000 hz. (8 Ohms) (101 db)

2 way 15 inch speakers with 50 oz magnet and 2.5 inch voice coil.

John Marks' questions of how much better and whether the difference really makes a difference are right on. Sam Tellig's willingness to spell out sonic shortcomings in the Klipschs performance and still buy 'em because he loves them adds another chapter to why so many of us smile and wait to see what he does next. Art Dudley agrees with what I've said so frequently in this forum - just listen to the music. Great stuff.
