Amplifier

I'm using an HSTNS-PL30 server power supply to power a jbl bp1200.1 subwoofer amp at home. I've attached 4 gauge wires to the power supply and connected them to the amp; when the wires aren't connected to the amp, the power supply powers on just fine, the light turns on (green), and it outputs...

So, I've been trying to wire up my subwoofer for absolutely ages and I'm completely lost now. I'm using a Pioneer GMD8701 paired with a Pioneer TS-A300B 1500 watt subwoofer/box. I've had the setup working, but unfortunately my aftermarket head unit died. I ended up buying a new one, and hooked...

Hey ! I have this active Pickering subwoofer that buzzs loudly when I turn it on, regardless if I play some music or not. That happened when I was fiddling around in the amp's motherboard and made an false manoeuver. The motherboard + capacitors seem fine visually, when that happened it made an...

Hi! I have the JBL S2-1224 12" 275 rms subwoofer paired with the JBL GX-A3001 amplifier. I had the subwoofer set at 4 ohms and the gain at 50%. Good base and it hit hard. Then I learned about clipping and that you should set the voltage from the amplifier to the subwoofer. I calculated the...

Hello, I've got some amplifier noise/interference that's driving me nuts. It's a high pitched whine with intermittent pulsing, like Morse code. I have a Midiland S4-8200 5.1 surround system that I've been using for the past 18 years for my PC. There's some noise coming from the Right and...

Hello, I have 2 of the mentioned power supply, and I have an amp thats rated for 12V 2x20W, and an other one which is rated for 12V 2x50W. Is it bad for the amps to use them with a power supply like this, or I should buy a bigger one? (I know it's gonna be "less effective", but that's not the...

Got Mackie CR3's and was wondering if there was anyone who knows how I could link some passive speakers to the loop? Would i need to invest in an Amplifier/mixer, or can this not be done? Not sure what wattage the passive speakers are, and not sure if that would have an affect depending on...

Hello, I have a YAMAHA amplifier which is behaving little strange since past few months. When the amplifier is connected to any socket and plugged on, even though its in switch off mode, it starts automatically. I have to remove the plug completely to stop this happening. Also, lets say there...

Hi Guys, How are you, Actually im new to this so want your opinion on it. The thing is that I have 2 jbl woofers. Which is connected to yamaha amp avx-700. The thing is that as i hook the woofer wires in `Main Speaker terminals`, so from woofers i get the bass plus vocal music, but not the pure...

(New to the audio scene so please correct me if i'm wrong etc) I was wondering if the FiiO E10K Olympus would be enough to power music/games/movies for the DT990 Pro Headphones. As far as I'm aware it will only power 150ohms but wont the 250ohms be to loud for anyone anyway? Will I notice the...

I got both the amp and the speakers off Gumtree and the speakers have worked well for years now. The amp was bought as a backup for me to take to uni but when I play music I occasionally get a cracking sound, the amp will either reboot itself or stay powered but not connect to the speakers? Any...

Hello, So I recently got myself inside audio industry. I mean, I saw on youtube that real high-end headphones(such as Sennheiser, bose, sony, beats and etc) are way superior to any headsets(such as Logitech G933, Corsair Void Pro Wireless and other virtual 7.1 high-end headsets which I...

I have an RCA 5.1 surround sound system, but the receiver was on its way out so I replaced it with a Pioneer VSX-531 5.1 Receiver (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01G5XKNKW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1), and decided to use the old speakers because they sounded great when the...

Hey everyone, I don't know anything about audio setups but I'm trying to understand it the best I can. Apparently, an audio interface can replace an Amplifier/DAC combo. I basically want to listen to music on low-impedance cans below around 40 so I don't need an amp but I'm assuming a tube amp...

Heyo people Some time ago I acquired my first real tube amplifier. I've had some hybrids tubes beforehand, however never felt like I got the "tube" sound, and boy didn't I get that. So I bought my Darkvoice 336se and I LOVED it. They really made my HD800's come alive. However... Now the right...

I bought PS4 Slim and I just figured out that it doesn't have optical cable, and I really want to connect it to my sbz to get a really good sound quality, is there any adapter that I can buy? and is it going to affect the sound quality or it'll be normal same as optical from sbz to ps4? my...

So I bought the AKG K271 MKII and they seem to be okay. The point is that if I use them at my computer/phone everything sounds a little bit like phonecall-quality. I knew that a high impedation could cause a bit less louder sound, but should an amp fix my problem? The headphones have around...
