my new car stereo has a different size power supply than the old one?
I bought a new car stereo (CDE-102) for my Hyundai Accent 2001. The power connector on the original is bigger than the one on my new stereo. The Bestbuy website says that it is a fit for my car, so what to i do to fix this issue?
go to walmart and get a wiring harness for your car. one side will plug into your power connectors and the other will plug into the radio that you bought. they’re like 15 dollars.

Looking for a way to make standard home stereo speakers wireless?
Is there a device that will convert my existing home stereo speakers into wireless? I have a pretty good quality surround sound system, but I am tired of the speaker wires . I need to go wireless, but I want to use my existing speakers. Anyone have any ideas????
The previous responder obviously missed the January 2008 issue of “Home Theater” magazine, which discusses exactly the kind of gear you’re looking for.
The magazine reviewed and gave excellent marks to the KEF Universal Wireless Speaker Kit ($600). Similar (but unreviewed) products include the Rocketfish RF-WHTIB Wireless Rear Speaker Kit ($100), the Kenwood RFU-6100 Wireless Amplifier ($300), and the Amphony Model 1550 Digital Wireless Audio Transmitter/Amplifier ($200).

What is the advantage of using a current and voltage regulated power supply? ?
We are planning to construct a voltage regulated power supply as our project but our teacher told us that it would be better to construct a current and voltage regulated power supply instead.We are just wondering what difference can a current regulated power supply do.
Your teacher has the right idea. If you are going to make an effort, you should try to get the maximum return for that effort.
Current and Voltage regulated sources are the mainstay of industry. They allow the maximum flexibility. The programmable variety allow the testing of all integrated circuits in all the IC factorys. Even more to the point, if you intend your power supply to survive, you will have to provide the maximum protection for it. This usually means building in current limiting circuits anyway. There is almost no difference between a current limiter and a Current Regulated Supply.
I have replaced my old preamplifier and been using DENON?
I have been using Denon amlifier as the preamp and that has replaced my old Gernan T+A preamp, which is times more expensive then the Denon.
1.
a.Can i use the Denon as the preamp as it is a regular amlifier (comprises both the preamp and amp)? I have connected the Denon preamp from its RCA output to the T+A amp?
b.Should I use Denon as the preamp, as the volume can’t be adjusted?
2. Since the T+A is much more expensive, will the sound become worse, although I can’t sense the difference?
Lets start with models numbers. You should be able to use the Denon as the volume control unless you are using a fixed output RCA. MORE DETAIL.
What’s the difference between a tube and a solid state guitar amplifier?
I know tube sounds better.
I’m probably going to get a little technical here, but stay with me.
First, you can’t make a blanket statement that “tubes sound better”. I’ve heard some very good solid state amps in my day, and some really horrid tube amps. So, just because an amp has a tube in it doesn’t automatically make it a tone machine.
I’m going to assume that you question is asking “What’s the difference in the tone of a tube and solid state amp”, so that’s the avenue I’m going down.
For the most part, tube and solid state amps will behave much the same way while they are being operated in their linear region, which is a fancy way of saying that you haven’t turned it up loud enough to distort. Tube amps, in general, have a higher input impedance than solid state which tends to load your guitar pickups less (and thus will sound a little different).
The real difference comes when you start turning up the signal level to the amps, and how they handle the overload.
A solid state amp will keep amplifying a signal right up to the point to where the amplification device (transistor, op amp, FET, etc) runs out of headroom. And at that point, it abruptly stops. This results in a clipped waveform (think square wave) that contains predominately odd number harmonics. Our ears perceive this kind of distortion as abrasive, or non-musical. It’s the way a lot of fuzz and distortion pedals work.
A tube, on the other hand, does not behave like this. As you turn up the signal level to a tube, it’s starts to compress the signal. As you turn it up further, the tube does not clip the signal as abruptly…it’s more of a limited signal than clipped. Combined with the output transformer in the circuit the signal consists of predominately even numbered harmonics, which our ears perceive as musical.
Tubes (power tubes specifically) can have a very large dynamic range…much larger than solid state devices. This contributes to how a guitarist can back the volume on his/her guitar down a bit and clean up the sound.
OK…probably way more info than you wanted, but there you go.
