    Crown DC300 good deal?

    Better call Jim Marshall, so he can take all the distortion out of his amps before they blow all those Marshall cabs.:p To JWR- you will only need protection if you really clip the amp a lot or use speakers with low power ratings. The DC300 is like 150Wpc @ 8ohms? Even a lot of studio monitors...

    Recording at 48000Hz??

    No- for two reasons- First, the sample rate must be MORE THAN double the highest frequency to be sampled. Second, the input filters cut off sharply starting at 20k. By the time you hit 22k, the signal is down about 100db. So while yes, a 44.1kHz sample rate could approach 22k, stuff that high...

    Recording at 48000Hz??

    My point is that if you hear a difference, it's not because 96k makes more accurate samples or captures more accurate data than 48k. There is something else that accounts for the difference you hear.

    Recording at 48000Hz??

    Insults are more fun and take less time.:p Perceived differences aside, because I don't claim to hear anything or take either side of the issue-- The idea that extra data points taken with higher sample rates increases the resolution of the reproduced wave is false. As long as the sampling...

    Presonus TubePre - Unnaturally High Output?

    Yeah- you are plugging a line-level out from your preamp to an input that is expecting a mic signal, which is a much lower level. If you plug into a mixer, use a line input.

    Recording at 48000Hz??

    It's now official, you have no idea what you are talking about or how digital audio works. Pat your self on the back, you have made the internet a little dumber today.

    Question/Help with Panasonic SV-3700 DAT

    If I remember right, Sony and Panasonic use different 32kHz standards....you can't play a tape made on one in the other..you'll have to dub one if you want it to play in both decks..

    Advice on a wireless mic for a doumbek

    Sennheiser Evolution G2 and Shure SLX are two reasonably decent ones with some good features. :) The lower-end stuff isn't nearly as rugged, and the higher up stuff gets to be big $$.

    Advice on a wireless mic for a doumbek

    Personally I'd wait, buy used, or at least stay away from the 700mHz band. All that bandwidth is up for sale by the FCC, and there's a good chance devices in the class that wireless mics fall into will be banned from transmitting. At the very least, in an area like Huntington/NYC, those bands...

    KRK studio monitors, read this before buying them.

    They are also xenophobic paranoid fascists who live on an island with no natural resources. Failure was not an option.

    KRK studio monitors, read this before buying them.

    OK- for pretty much any product, you have three choices- cheap, good, and fast. You can pick any two, the third is eliminated. As soon as America won't buy cheap bingo dabbers, the problem will be solved. It's not gonna happen, because Americans will buy anything cheap. And eventually the...

    And yet you seem to think bad reports tell the whole story.:confused:

    KRK studio monitors, read this before buying them.

    Every country makes good and shitty products. Saying "China has QC problems" is just as stupid as saying it doesn't. What do you think they are going to put in the news? "Today's top story: A shipload of inexpensive, well-made goods arrived from China this morning. Customers very happy...
