Hey Hey,
i am a newbie who recently got into Audio and who just discovered this nice board here I got myself a JBL 6230 and some 4311īs which I recently recapped. Sound is awesome, detailled and cristal clear but never too much. I use a Bozak CMA as a pre-amp. Since I had this amp, Iīve always used it with a power conditioner. It was dead quite - I now changed the setup and use the conditioner now for my dvd player. With the 6230 turned on now, I can hear a faint sizzling-buzzing sound. I never heard that sound before, could that be because i stopped using the conditioner and is that something i would have to expect from an old amp like the 6230? Iīve recently read that iīm better off not using the condironer for amps because of the 0,5 output it has? Not sure what that means but yea, i thought maybe you guys can help. My friend also has a 6230 and hears sizzling/buzzing sounds. We both live in 120 year old houses with old electrics - could this be a reason?
Also, i really canīt hear any difference when i hook up my Marantz 2270, what is wrong with me? Can a pro amp like that be compared to classic hi-fi amps/receiver ?
cheers!
