Roman in a few posts you have made reference to the interesting topic of cable current loading. I'm keenly interested in your findings....

First of all, thanks for additional detail. As mentioned I can speak only for my Fidelity Research XF-1 (30dB). Loading it on secondary as you mentioned, it ALSO damps the trannie - result in my case: less resolution. Primary loading is MUCH more sen...

[quote user="Axel"]OK, this is useful also, in that you have not noted a "pattern" as you say. My point is closer to your suggestion, that I do change cart --- and sometimes buy new ones, B U T I do not buy other SUT (at least I try to avoid it). I'...

Here is a snippet from an email from Jonathan Carr (Lyra cartridge designer) about objectives and considerations regarding cartridge loading. Most of this is old news, I only re-post it here as a convenient synopsis on this most misunderstood t...

I must say I've never came in to intimate contact with cables and avoid it untill I can, so yes all my arguments are theoretical.By amplifying I ment of course voltage, not power and ass-u-med that the external noise as well as the cable distortion a...

[quote user="Lbjefferies7"] Having said that, the 15 Commandments above look like a fine solution-based pre-amp...and the title reminds me of Mel Brooks as Moses. [/quote] Yes, it was exactly my point of reference. [quote user="Lbjefferies7"] A p...

With near 1R impedance I
presume you will have multiple bass drivers paralleled. That is perfectly
legitimate way to operate but there are a few things you might consider. The mistakes at 1R are more effective then at high impedance.
If you have...

***The proper loading value is difficult to say without knowing your system, as it is partly a preamp and ultrasonic RF issue as well as one that involves the cartridge and audible frequencies. Some cartridges have frequency abberations within ...

[quote user="cb"] Also i stick a 30k resistor in R3 and the results are very good. [/quote]R3 is Milq’s loading resistor and it hardly to do anything with amp itself. Milq has own input loading is floating on the bias chains and it has a ...

Tim, the cable loading is not what I meant. Purist does like higher current across the cable but which cable does not love it? Dave Clark described very well some of the aspect of usability of POD cables (like disturbance). Some of them he left out. ...

[quote user="RonyWeissman"]Attentuators plugged directly into the RCA jacks sounds like good solution for balance control[/quote]Do not forget that you do not need the attenuators but juts one attenuator that you would plug on right OR on left. Also,...

Ok Romy thanks for advice. I will see about the loading for my shelter, and my cable to the step-up is nothing special. I am going to listen to mono only for next few weeks and see if i find the "same character of sound everywhere" syndrome! I do h...

[quote user="George"] Recently I had a brainstorm (very small) and bounced it off Guy (who is a terrific person to talk to) and he thought it would be worth trying. Since I was driving such a relatively long length of RCA cable (thus subject to noise...

Glaesemann, there is not a lot to talk about it. My observation showed that prac...

First of all I disagree that the objective of loading is to tame RF resonances. The tame RF resonances is what is the most easily observable. I personally never care about RF resonances while I chase loading but only about the LF. Secondary, I do not...

I do not think Genn is close to an answer, he spent too much time to read the Lehnitsky’s brain-massage that made him to feel this way.
I am sure that there are some kinds of very pragmatic, predicable and manageable explanations for the effect that...
|
|
Thanks, Jim, and thanks to everyone who replied in direct emails. Summarizing what was advised to me it looks like as now the input impedance of the amp is around 4.5K. That was roughly what I would like to have, though I would like to go even furthe...

[quote user="RonyWeissman"]Strange but I have found that my reception is significantly better if I don't use any connector between my antenna cable(radio shack RG whatever going up to rooftoop antenna) and my tuner but instead just strip off a bit of...

Let it be known that I am nearly clueless when it comes to electronics. Building speakers, racks, pianos, or just about anything mechanical is no problem for me to build myself and, unlike Romy, it is usually pleasant for me for various reasons....

Antonio, I never understood this concept of “gain selector”. If I remember correctly S&B had 10, 20 25 db options via re-wiring of the primary coil. It is not complicated to place primary in some kind of rotary 3-position switch but it would be c...

I can only offer a simple solution to this problem.Decide on which row you wish to place digital services. I would also include anything that has a switched mode power supply because of the Y capacitor thing. Assume Row 1 will be used for digital s...

I got home. I turned the thing on, I played it and it was just unjustly compressed. I demagnetized it, it got better, even though the cartridge did not pay a lot since I demagnetized it last time. It is still not where I would like it to be. It is ju...

In the past you've referred to current loading in the context of cable length. I recently experienced this when I experimented with moving my amps. I needed to increase the IC length from 1 meter to 3 meters. The only IC I had at that length was an o...

[quote user="George"] The remote is not a problem. Using a Xantech distributer, repeaters, and electric eye you can configure the two passive remotes in a foolproof, or nearly foolpoof, manner for about $75-100 total. Since I already had the basic Xa...

I was beginning to wonder if I'd ever get the new listening room checked out electrically and the new system ground installed, etc., but I finished this work yesterday, including a soldered-rather-than-clamped ground wire-to-rod connection. ...

[quote user="Paul Costa"]Thanks for your reply.I am in the market for either a new pre-amp or phono and line stage.I know they need around 47k for optimal loading, but what else might I be concerned with.Did you have a look on Agon at the two there.&...
