    Mackie Big Knob Studio+ volume issues

    I've been using the Studio+ for a few months with only one tiny issue which I'll mention in a minute. However, a bigger issue that just came up is for some reason, all of a sudden my right channel is louder than the left. I determined it was the Studio+ after checking with headphones and...

    Large volume drop after running cans through preamp

    Thats what I began to think. I was hoping it would have been completely passive if the volume knob was maxed, but apparently not

    Large volume drop after running cans through preamp

    So I tried to have this kinda unnecessary setup so I just have to hit a couple buttons and switch between my turntable and dac as inputs, then my speakers, solid state headphone amp, and tube amp as outputs. And where I'm having trouble, a preamp to switch between the headphone amps and 2 sets...

    Turntable or phono preamp buzz/hum

    Right now I am trying to set up my turntable, but I can't seem to get rid of a hum with underlying buzz. The table I'm using is a Pro-ject debut III with an emotiva xps-1 phono preamp. The sound occurs whether or not the turntable is connected to the preamp and I have also tried connecting the...

    Using multiple splitters in 1 system

    I'm wondering if it's ok to use multiple passive/active switches in a row for multiple inputs/outputs. I have a turntable and DAC as inputs, then 2 headphone amps and a pair of speakers as outputs. I found the Mackie Big Knob Studio+, but I was wondering if there were any better options...

    Looking for rca or xlr matrix

    I have 2 input devices and 3 output devices and I am trying to find a matrix so I can easily switch between the inputs and outputs. However I can't seem to find one that would be appropriate for home use. It can be either a desktop unit or preferably a rack mount unit as I'm using a 2 post...

    Issues with my Schiit

    It's a pro-ject debut 3. The noise produced while the turntable was connected sounded more like static, similar the pops when playing vinyls. I'm letting my cousin take a look at it right now since he's a way more hardcore audiophile and has experience with vinyl. Just a waiting game now.

    Issues with my Schiit

    Even when I had the turntable attached, there were 2 tones, the same hum, along with other noise which I wanted to figure out later. I haven't really touched the setup in a week or so

    Issues with my Schiit

    I've done every possible mixture of solutions to solve the issue with the mani without any success. Down to running the mani and amp on a ups that wasn't plugged into the wall and it still produced the same tone. The previous owner said he didn't have any issues with it which is what's really...

    Issues with my Schiit

    @ScubaMan2017 I emailed him and he sent me a list of generic solutions, along wit the ones on their faq guides. Nothing worked, so I emailed him back but he hasn't responded yet, I'm assuming because of the weekend. So now I'm just waiting for his response to see if he can help or not.

    Issues with my Schiit

    I was recently given a Schiit mani, but no matter what I do the device produces a hiss. There is no turntable attached, just output. I have moved it around, changed the rca's and wall wart, isolated it to its own power conditioner, isolated it with the headphone amp I'm using to the same...

    what paracord size for custom cable

    I was thinking of making a cable for my hd650's with some mogami w2534 and I wanted to sleeve it with some nice paracord. I would have used mdpc-x sleeving (like techflex), but I heard plastic sleeving just causes trouble. I wasn't sure what the best weights to use for the main jacket and the...

    Looking for new speakers

    I'm trying to find a pair of speakers to set up around my tv. The left side is kinda against a wall, but i tried to pull it as far away as I could to the right. My budget is 40-500 plus the receiver if I need one, I can spend a little more if it is a way better setup that way What are some...

    Fostex t40rp question

    I'm going to make a cable for my t40rp's because the stock 1/4 one literally died on me in 20 minutes of use. Therefore I'm going to just make my own cable, but I have 1 question regrading these headphones specifically. Will there be interference issues with the 3.5mm lock on the headphones...
