    Beware DeArmond basses

    I'm convinced that these things are just shitty. I appologize to those before me who love them, but I just received my SECOND, and it's CRAPPIER than the bass it replaced. This one has a buzz coming from somewhere near the neck joint (no it's not the battery). It's also got a bad knob, and...

    ...or maybe the PS5's?

    Ok, so my girlfriend just forced me to consider the PS5's over the 20/20's. Now, I know what I said in my other thread....but I got to thinking and now I just don't know. What I'm concerned with is that the PS5 only has a 5" woofer, opposed to the 20/20's 8 inch. And being only 150 bucks...

    Amplifier questions...

    1) It was mentioned to me that a power amplifier wants to work at full power, and that volume should be controlled before the power amp. Is this by explicit design? If the output quailty of an amplifier varies with amplification level, then is full volume the design target for optimum quality...

    Buying 20/20's...talk me out of it!

    So I've got 300 smackers and my current "monitors" are driving me nuts. In its price range it *appears* as though the Event 20/20 is the best bang for the buck, mostly because Ed gives it high marks for the price. I know there are other threads about this, but here's another one. I'd just...

    Got my Pilot...

    Well, after all the hassle with Sam Ash, I finally got my Pilot Pro Bass today. Problems though...the treble knob was smashed down against the little plastic guard thing that ships with the bass. However, the knobs are just held on by a set screw, so I just raised it up and it seems to...

    Sam Ash inside email address?

    Anybody have an email address for sam ash besides the sales@samash.com ? I'm getting dicked over with my Pilot bass order. Every time I call they say its shipping today. So I told a gal today what's been going on, and she said she has no idea why it hasn't shipped. It's sitting in the...

    KVM extensions........?

    I'm lazy today so I'm just going to ask. I'm looking for a Keyboard/Video/Mouse box and long cables. I need to move about 20 to 30'. I'm assuming that I need some kind of amplifer. I'm not necessarily looking for a switch, but that would work. I need to take the monitor, keyboard, and...

    Crucial Memory Free Shipping Going Bye Bye

    Crucial is putting a stop to their free 2nd day air shipping policy. I was told that shipping will be $8.50 for 2nd day air in the future, which isn't so bad really. Anyways, you have until the 15th of this month. This is the module to buy for pretty much *every* PII/Celeron/PIII/CeleronII...

    Symetrix 302 vs. 202

    How big is the difference in sound between the 202 & the 302? The 202 is pretty hard to find since they've been discontinued. I read that the reason they stopped making the 202 is that the op amp it used was discontinued, and hence came the 302 with a new op amp. Of course this means a...

    Listening test....need listeners please!

    Three quick spoken word clips. All done the exact same way, but I'm not going to tell you what I changed. Which clip sounds best to you? (sorry to be secretive, but I need honest answers without any bias) http://www.imt.net/~blarson/1_1644.wav http://www.imt.net/~blarson/2_1644.wav...

    8ohm Amp, 4ohm Monitors

    Yes, a cute little hafler power amp is certainly in my future. However I need both better monitors and a power amp, and right now the monitors take priority. So here's the problem. I have an amp that wants an 8ohm load, and am going to get a pair of 20/20's which are 4ohm. To avoid damaging...

    ART Tube MP...consider a tube change

    Just a note....for a long time I thought that my ART pre sounded funny. Actually I blamed it on my SM57 for a long time....but when I got the V67 I noticed very similar characteristics...a hollow or shallow sound at moderate volume, and a strange tin can sound at high volumes. So finally...

    Got the V67G ... & Question about 603

    Ok, I received my V67G from abemusic.com yesterday. $219 for the green bodied, gold screened V67 plus shockmount & free cheap 20' cable...shipped UPS 2nd Day. It would have been $199 if I had shipped ground, but I didn't like the idea of the mic sitting on a truck for 10 days. If you order...

    Delta44, Multiclient, Win2k - WORKS - but...

    Ok guys, the new Win2K delta drivers are out, and the good news is that multiclient seems to work. I was able to play in wavelab while n-track was open. However, click pop click pop...even with only one application open. Plus they got rid of the individual ASIO and Wave buffering options in...

    New Delta Drivers Available 6/1/01

    I realized today that M-Audio released updated 95/98/ME/2000 Delta/Audiophile drivers on June 1st. Various bugfixes and improved multiclient support. I was looking at the driver revision list and noticed that multiclient was supported as of the previous driver release. I've never been able to...

    Harvey, Ed, Rec Eng, etc... V67, 4033... advice

    Ok, this is not your typical "versus" thread, because from what I've read, both of the mics that I'm interested in are somewhat well-respected. I'm simply looking for some real, quantifiable advice from people with real experience with these microphones. I was originally going to buy an...
