Moar good commentary.

BTW, anything unusual about the pin positioning on the Quads XLRs? Need to pick up a cable to use with one of the Parasounds.

Everyday is Quadday! We're sure Lanemark has these many units, right? And I thought it was mandatory to have the A5s to order 12Ls.

Just got this yesterday, but haven't had a chance to listen. What do you think?

I think you use a stack of twenties to prop it up. Actually, pretty much a teaser at this point. Retro Slim is the only case they're taking orders for currently and it has no stand.

luvdunhill - Been all over the place (including with and without ECC adapter), but I still have a few combos I can try. Not aware of their individual gains, but will definitely exhaust the options and report back. Hum has been pretty consistant so far though. Spritzer - That for taking a look and giving feedback. Have always been surprised about the lack of input selector. As traditional dynamics aren't used a bunch here I was trying to keep the spending down on that side of things and my skills there are near zero. To work on and keep or sell and start over (or just use GS1)? That is the question. Thanks again guys.

tkam: I hadn't tried a cheater plug, but just did and no luck. spritzer: Attached are a few photos. Could take more, but these were quickies. Nothing looks disconnected, burned out, etc. though not sure if there are problems with the design. That was a gimme in the joke department. If anyone has an ideas I'm be much appreciative.

I suspect everyone it tired of Singlepower issues, but quick question if you don't mind. Any suggestions for eliminating hum from an Extreme Platinums preamp out? Have moved outlets, swapped variety of tubes, tested other preamps, used with headphone and speakers, to no avail. For a decent chuck of music I like the Singlepowers punch with the Emotiva RPA-2 and K1000s over other pres around the house (GS1 or Parasound P/SP 1500), but of course the slight hum is killing it. Headphone out has always been good, though the three inputs have never been able to be used simultaneously (all work, just not cables plugged into to any two at one time - goes very quiet even if only one source is on). So there may be an electrical issue, but I pray not. Any suggestions (besides replacing it)?

I am T-Pain taken a bit further...

HBD Al and thanks for a great evening!

I'm powering the K1000s with an Emotiva RPA-2 using a GS-1 as a pre. I few members heard it at the recent NorCal meet. May be moving shortly into a place with my girlfriend and was going to downsize the rig. The K1K seemed the least practical, but when trying to go back to the HD580s and RS1s recently as main dynamic cans, damn everything seemed so bland.

Moar Big Star.

Bought a can of Original Pringles this morning for the first time in years. Is there a better salt delivery system out there?

I would have suspected you would have enjoyed Mettalica more before you could hear.
