(Quote) We bought the Prius new in 2014 and it just turned over 90,000 miles and we haven't spent a dime on repairs outside of replacing things for normal wear like tires and now a battery. I'm also amazed that the original battery lasted this long.…

Ran an errand yesterday and the 2014 Prius V ran fine. Half hour later I pushed the start button and all the dash board lights were blinking on and off randomly and it wouldn't start. Googled the issue and top of the list was the battery. I swapped …

(Quote) I had a friend who used to run an ad in the newspaper every once in a while looking for used tube amps and would pick up vintage McIntosh amps cheap and restore them. And yes, he could get any part he needed from McIntosh.

This clay would probably work well. It's made for kids and doesn't dry out. I have a stick if you want it Bill. https://amazon.com/gp/product/B011EG5KTO/?th=1 Ron

I agree with Wolf. AMT diaphragms are like accordion pleats and should have uniform ridges. Yours looks like its been melted. (Image) Ron

(Quote) The only output I see on the quick-start wiring guide for the KAB-230 is mono. The KABD-4100 or KABD-430 are designed to be linked. The smaller boards aren't I'd be surprised if the bluetooth has a different address for each board unless t…

The ESS mounting kit uses 1/4-20 bolts.

I've been doing a little more work trying to get rid of buzzes. Both the woofer and PR have buzzes that can be affected by pressing on the stamped metal flanges. The woofer comes with a thin foam gasket that doesn't seem to be very effective so I …

Before I signed up for Tidal I bought most of my CD's at the local Goodwill or the local library's sale of donated books and media. On occasion I bought new and used CD's from Amazon. A lot of music on Amazon is available in MP3 format.

Since my last post I did a lot of work getting my project up and running in time for DIY Iowa. I reprinted all the box parts in metallic blue with added alignment tabs to the fronts and backs and made the center section a tad bit longer. (Image) …

Congratulations to Bryan, Jason, and JR for their well deserved award. I'm guessing I didn't get back from lunch in time to see the presentation. During my demo several people said it sounded like the left speaker had a bad air leak. When I pushed …

I looked up a Dale data sheet and they make two kinds of resistors. The NH models are non inductive. RH models are their standard model.

I bought magnet wire from a local motor rewind place here in town many years ago. I just told them how many pounds I wanted and they wound it on a spool for me.

Bill, it looks like the auger could use some new rubber. Ron

The weather forecast for this weekend is for mid 70 highs for Friday and Saturday. There will be some wind Friday. Ron

Does anyone have any interest in a HP 334A Harmonic Distortion Analyzer? The one I have has been sitting on the shelf for 32 years gathering dust. It worked 32 years ago but your results may vary. :-) (Image) I'm trying to finish up my active pro…

I'm glad the mids worked out for you.

(Quote) Yes, the tuning is about 10hz lower than predicted. The initial measurements don't look too bad and DSP should be able to compensate. What did you think of the tweeter?

This project has been on the back burner while I worked on other projects. I'm back at it and hope to bring something to Ankeny so I'm going to do a quick post. I've kind of stepped away from the boombox idea for now. It's quicker and easier to do s…

(Quote) I was pointing out that you could measure F3 and Q to use in the spreadsheet instead of trying to estimate them by comparing the FR to the graph supplied in the writeup. You verify that the transform is working by measuring the FR with and w…

I got the spreadsheet from the Minidsp forum. https://minidsp.com/applications/advanced-tools/linkwitz-transform This link explains what the software does and how to enter it into the Minidsp. One thing I would add to that is that you can get F3 a…

I really like this woofer. I'm running it with a 35 w/ch receiver so I never push it real hard but in a my ported box the bass gets down there. I'm actually putting an active sealed system together for my BIL using this woofer. He's going to build …
