    Amp Wattage and it's Relation to Speaker Impedance

    I'm sorry for asking a question that I know has been asked a couple times here before, but I just really want to make sure I'm understanding this correctly. I just picked up a Realistic STA-2100D that sounds absolutely terrible with a couple sets of speakers I have around that are lower...

    Need info on some white van speakers

    I know it's probably a bad idea but I want to turn a pair of Acoustic Lab Pro Series 710s into one big speaker cabinet for my bass guitar. My idea was to wire the two systems in parallel and make a big box to boost the bass, but my main issue now is that I don't know the rated wattage of the...

    Resistor wattage, any way to find out?

    Hi! I was a bit unlucky and broke a resistor in the volume section of the amp (relay based, with the clicks/ticks every time you adjust the volume). Finding out resistance is not a big deal, since it's marked on the PCB, but the lack of service manual makes it hard to predict the correct...

    LF Transducers & Crown D150a

    Hello all, long story short I am needing a way to properly produce 16hz, most woofers simply don't seem to be able to respond at that low a frequency. I plan to purchase a low frequency transducer and either mount it to a stud in my house or to the raised floor and power it off of a d150a II...

    My first pair of really good speakers

    I just got my first ever pair of really quality speakers. (Well, by my standards - I’m sure some folks on here are familiar with some super high end stuff.) I got a pair of McIntosh ML-10Cs. The hifi restore/repair expert I bought them from said that I should beware of clipping given the...

    My amplifier's wattage is lower than the recommended one for the speakers I want to get

    I have an old Sherwood S-2640 CP receiver given to me by a friend. I could not see the watt per channel at the back of it, but after some research I discovered it's 25w/c. I haven't yet completed my audio setup so I need speakers and I was looking at the Monitor Audio Bronze 2 but the specs say...

    Harman Kardon 330B Amplifier/Receiver - Is it safe for my KLH Model Sixes??

    I picked up an HK 330B that I LOVE. I'm running my KHL Model sixes thru it and it sounds great. After some different reading on the net here and their, I got worried thinking maybe that I'm underpowering the speakers and causing damage... Anybody's thoughts on this? Is a Harmon Kardon 330...

    Low decibel speakers

    While I'm waiting to get new drivers for my EPI's, I've been using a cair of bookshelf Pinnacles. While they sound pretty decent, they are way too efficient. I can't turn my volume up more than a quarter of the way and the signal rarely even registers on my VU metres. As such, I'm wondering two...

    Wattage & Speaker Sensitivity (Sansui 221 and Klipsch Quartets)

    Hey all, I have a pair of very clean Klipsch Quartets. Their sensitivity is 97.5 dB SPL @ 1 watt. I run this with a restored Marantz 2230. They sound very nice. I know people sometimes gripe about the Klipsch sound with harsher amps (some solid state models and can be best paired with low...

    New here, will this work:

    Hiya Audiokarma, I have recently gotten into playing Vinyls and have purchased a turntable. I ended up going with the Audio-Technica lp120usb. I know newer tt's get a hard time here but bare with me. It already has a preamp (which I'll replace later for a nicer one), and right now I'm trying...
