    Drop THX-789 Volume pot replacement?

    For now I opened the chassis and used compressed air and then put a LOT of contact cleaner on the pot itself and through the knob from the front panel side. It's clean and quiet as on the first day!

    Drop THX-789 Volume pot replacement?

    Bringing back this thread from the dead... I wonder if anybody ever successfully found a replacement or solution for this? I've had the crackling problem for a while now. My workaround is to typically just spend a few seconds turning back and forth the knob to "clean it" until it somewhat stops...

    thanks! I've browsed a bit the thread at oplug, and see a lot of solutions. The delay problem is a good point. It seems a 4x10HD is going to be required in any case.

    I've been contemplating building a LXmini setup for a while, not making up my mind if I want to add one or two subwoofers or not at some point. I keep using this excuse to procrastinate and postpone buying the kit... I have what may sound like a dummy question and a no-no approach to more...

    Ideas for in-wall cabling

    conduit with pre-run fish tape is a great idea. bonus question: If I run HDMI fiber optics, do I need special outlet plates? Are HDMI optics working only with specific device that would power them?

    adding VU-meters in the audio chain?

    I think one day I’ll cave in, spend the money and get the RME. It seems to be a nice piece of equipment from many angles.

    Canjam SoCal Headphone and Audio Show 2019 Part 2

    It was also my first CanJam this year. I believe you can get a good sense of the overall performance of the gear, especially the headphones themselves. For amps and DAC it may be much harder. I tried many headphones in one day. It allowed me to make my own rough opinion on some of the models I...

    Can't wait for your review of this. I almost bought the Audeze equivalent solution before... Would be interested to see how it integrates with system using the Ambisonic format, and how much power is required on the host.
