This section was written by someone who wishes to remain anonymous, but I will field any questions on the subject -IDB] Yes. When two loads are connected in parallel (such as with a Y-cable) they get the same voltage as each other. They do NOT get the same voltage as if only one load was connected because the head-unit has an internal resistance (typically around 600 ohms).

Audio CD mastering in it's most basic form is the step in manufacturing following mixdown where this master is loaded into a digital workstation and a final master "Red Book compatible" CDR is created including proper P&Q codes and a time/frame accurate log. More advanced mastering can be a very complex process involving additional compression/ limiting (for louder CDs), noise reduction, EQing, reverb and/or stereo enhancement as well as very sophisticated editing.

There are many schools of thought on this subject. Linn for example say that more should be spent on the source (CD player, Turntable) and less on the amplification or speakers. We on the other hand tend to think that balance is best; basically spend the same on each component. By doing this if you decide to upgrade your hi-fi at any time in the future you will know that your system will always be balanced. Also by balancing your system the features on your equipment.

No, the SRM 66 is a line level device. It will accept levels from consumer - 10 dBV or professional + 4 dBu sources but a preamp, like the MS 1b, is needed between the microphone and the SRM 66. See similar questions...

There is currently an effort to make a KNOPPIX-style CD for Bricolage. Informally this CD is known as KNOPPIX with Bricolage. It is a CD that contains a Linux Distribution (Debian in this case) with Bricolage preinstalled. The system is self-contained on a CD and the user merely needs to boot an i386-compatible computer from the CD. The CD will not in any way alter the content of your hard disk. This CD is useful for evaluating Bricolage since it removes the hassle of installation. See similar questions...

Simply cease to use CD / DVD as a direct target for your backup operations. Set up GRBackPro to run your scheduled events and let it create backups to your hard drive automatically. Every week or month you can copy the backup copies created with GRBackPro to your CD / DVD device manually, with your favorite CD / DVD recording software or Windows XP built-in CD / DVD recording feature. If it's really necessary to run automatic CD / DVD backups, consider buying a good packet-writing tool. See similar questions...

More and more text books are becoming available on CD-ROM, and some courses may even require a CD-ROM as part of its course materials, so it is important. See similar questions...

A CD-i player contains a CD-drive that runs at normal or single speed, to allow for the correct timing when retreiving realtime data. Speeding up this drive speed would result in the requirement of extra buffer RAM to store audio and video, which would make the CD-i player much more complex. Furthermore, playing time of realtime data would be decreased when a disc would be played at a higher speed. See similar questions...

Yes. It also has a separate PTT input jack, so you can pre-switch the amp using a footswitch, etc. This delay is provided to prevent hot-switching of amplifiers and the adjustment range will cover any likely need. The variable delay is a feature that will be available after initial shipment. See similar questions...

No. A small, flat antenna is used that allows you to put it in alot of places. It can be placed under the dash, in the back window, behind a rubber or plastic bumper, under the seat or under the car with the antenna pointed downwards. My wife and I have been extremely impressed with the dramatic effects this device had on our daughter's driving habits. My daughter was almost seventeen when one morning she and I left the house within seconds of one another. See similar questions...

Normally, we recommend a speaker system which sensitivity is over 90dB/W/m at least with our SV-amplifiers. However, as your reference, we would like to inform you that we have ever used SV-2A3 mainly with B&W CDM1SE speaker which has 88dB/W/m in our shop, though we have the other speaker systems, too. (Reference: our listening point is about 2 meters away from the speakers) And it has no problem unless the volume is turned in order to get an extremely loud sound. See similar questions...

Not much. At Fs it takes maybe around 5 W to drive a 12" unit to full excursion in free air. It takes just a little bit more in the open baffle cabinet because of the air mass loading. More power is needed as frequency goes up. I have found - by monitoring the p-p voltage across the woofer terminals - that each woofer channel is easily served by a 50 W amplifier.

Yes. Writing to CD and DVD discs is supported as long as you have some packet writing software installed on your computer. It usually comes bundled as a part of larger CD / DVD recording software packages and makes your CD or DVD drive act as a standard, transparently write-enabled drive. Packet writing software uses UDF-formatted CD and DVD discs, and allows GRBackPro to write to your CD / DVD drive by treating it like a hard disk or a floppy diskette, using the regular drive letter.

The Movie Player 2 provides progressive scan video output formats NTSC 480p and PAL 576p using DCDi de-interlacing by Faroudja. DVD content may be up-scaled to 720p or 1080i at 50 Hz and 60 Hz for the HDMI output only. Yes. The Kaleidescape Movie Player and Movie Player 2 include support for HDMI (and therefore also DVI). HDMI and DVI displays must support HDCP to view copy-protected movies. See similar questions...

Unplug the AC power cord from the outlet. Now hold the rear panel Default button in (you'll need a pencil, paper clip or similar long slender object) and reconnect the AC power cord to the outlet. Keep holding the button in, until the Output LEDs flash the "Knight Rider" pattern (from the outside LEDs towards the center), indicating the unit has been reset. If the unit will not reset with this method contact the factory for further information. See similar questions...

NOTE: All of them have a volume control (knob) on the left of front panel which is available to adjust signal level from the input. See similar questions...

Matsunichi's MF166 and MF168 allows you to directly convert CD audio to MP3 files stored in the player. If you are using other models, you will need to convert the CD audio to MP3 or WMA format file by usign particular computer software to copy them to the player. See similar questions...

Different people have had various levels of success with using a portable CD player's cassette adaptor with the stock radio. The problem is with the MSS feature on the head unit: if the space between songs on the cd is too long, the MSS feature will kick in and try to "fast forward" your adaptor. You can't disable the MSS feature, so ability to use a portable CD player will be on a cd by cd basis. See similar questions...
