Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Ahh, JWC

The only TAS'er who liked the Ortofon m/c I had (the model number escapes me). HP and PHD found it horribly bright, and suspected JWC's Dayton-Wrights weren't allowing him to hear it. It worked well with my Supex step-up transformer, and had it been bright, that DQ-10 piezoelectric tweeter sure would have let me know it. Not much talk about proper cartridge loading back then, as I recall.

The Dayton-Wrights...Another power hungry monster. I actually put a deposit down on a pair when I was about twenty years old. I got my money back when I had it explained to me why I couldn't drive them with a 70 wpc Harmon-Kardon receiver. The damn spec sheet said 50 wpc minimum, so I thought I was good to go!
