    My JBL LSR310S ate a pistachio. How to proceed?

    Talk of a trained squirrel retrieving a nut reminded me of the story referenced in the link - a favorite story from my youth. In it, a genius mastermind criminal succeeds in escaping from an “escape proof” prison. He achieves that as the result of a very elaborate scheme in which (among many...

    Monolith by Monoprice M565C - reviews or measurements?

    Thank you @someguyontheinternet, @staticV3, and @robertom !!! Ask the ASR hive mind and you too shall receive! @robertom or anyone - do you have a portable setup that allows filters/eq adjustments, and if so would you be so kind as to describe it?

    Monolith by Monoprice M565C - reviews or measurements?

    I see that there's a brand new review (Thank you Amir!) for a different model Monoprice headphone. The one I'm interested in the less expensive M565C, which incidentally is a top recommendation on Wirecutter.com. The review of the M1570 doesn't bode well for the M565C - does anyone know of any...

    Back to basics capacitor question

    Thanks! I see that resistors are also specified in Watts - I’m seeing from 1 Watt up to 100 Watts… What do you suggest? My amp is rated for 84 watts per channel @8ohms…

    Back to basics capacitor question

    Thank you. I’ve already learned plenty of other stuff the hard way so I’m happy to skip a lesson. Because my middle school electronics unit was 50+ years ago I have to ask : add the resistor to one of the wire leads of each capacitor? Like so? Also curious: what problem does the resistor prevent?

    Back to basics capacitor question

    I'm replacing the foam surrounds of the woofers in a vintage pair of speakers - Sound Dynamics 300ti. While I'm at it I thought I'd replace the crossover capacitors: Do I need to pay attention to the orientation / polarization (not sure of the correct term) when I install the new ones? Should...

    Forum Format Suggestion

    Hello to all, and thanks for sharing your insights, kvetches, anecdotes, questions, etc! I think it would be helpful if another “menu” of the links to other pages within a multi-page thread was positioned at the top of each page, in addition to where it already appears now - at the bottom of...

    Directiva r2 monitor prototype build

    @TimVG - are you able and willing to say what your overall outlook is for D.2? Given setbacks are you planning to continue, or are you considering dropping it? If continue, is it possible for to say when you think the project will be completed?

    Directiva r2 monitor prototype build

    Thanks for the update! I’ve been following - like the old Dusty Springfield song : Wishin’ and Hopin’. I’ll admit that I’ve felt wisps of frustration, but when I do I remind myself of the physics metric that I invented: The Speed of Life. It’s profoundly slower than The Speed of Light - in fact...

    Lurking acronym-deficient member asks what does MEH stand for. If H stands for horn do I get partial credit?

    Here's my space. What do you think of my (unusual?) ideas?

    Thanks Young-Ho. The Ikea speaker idea is a perfect example of why it's helpful to ask the community - I would never have thought of that on my own! It's an intriguing idea. Also very affordable - I might try one out, and even if it didn't work in this room, I'm sure I can find another place...
