Sometimes, getting to the innards and looking for weakened ground connections may become an easy... errrrr... de-rectification... of the problem. ymmv, especially with older tube hw.My tube equipment can pick up radio signals as the tubes can act as antenna and demodulator, particularly for older 3G cellphones.
See my original post. I mentioned that I have a few rather desirable Tek plugins that have been molested by audiophiles who stripped them of tubes, minus a few Nuvistors.If the tubes are being used for audio purposes, why worry about UHF (VHF, too) performance? In an audio app, that performance will never be required.
Snake oil? Ferrite beads (or sometimes 3" cores...) on cables are a NECESSITY in some environments. It's "snake oil" until you have to figure out how to keep an "audio" amplifier stable right next to a 150 kW 13.56 MHz RF power supply.Sometimes, getting to the innards and looking for weakened ground connections may become an easy... errrrr... de-rectification... of the problem. ymmv, especially with older tube hw.
ferrite beads on cables can be considered snake-oil by some, but their cost make them like an insurance policy...
Can you tell me where you got these? Also, are they supposed to be specific to your speaker, or more of a universal fit? ThanksAside from my tube buffer, I also purchased a pair of outriggers for my tower speakers but never installed them. Similar to these:
I purchased them about 11 years ago from someone who no longer makes them. they were semi-custom, made for just for my series of speaker. I think there are generic ones available though. The cost should be $100-$200 a pair.Can you tell me where you got these? Also, are they supposed to be specific to your speaker, or more of a universal fit? Thanks
Thanks, appreciate your reply. I just found some very close to those and come in different widths for different sized speakers. Now to measure my old QA towers (shaped like the 3010s).I purchased them about 11 years ago from someone who no longer makes them. they were semi-custom, made for just for my series of speaker. I think there are generic ones available though. The cost should be $100-$200 a pair.
Are you nominating these complex concrete blocks as worthy Audiophools candidates or something?The concrete is pretty inert, has lots of aggregate in it. (The stuff with less aggregate rings when tapped, these don't.) Thus I have 4 inert platforms coupled to my floor, and my bass cabinets are decoupled from the platform.
Nah...Are you nominating these complex concrete blocks as worthy Audiophools candidates or something?
