Re: Fried Model H upgrades/tweaks/DIY
Here are the afters (the before pictures can be found in the thread linked to in my original post).
So much nicer with just one wire per speaker. Terminations will be upgraded to spades in the near future. I plan to leave the speakers and woofer enclosure stock despite seeing some people replace the screws with newer binding posts that takes bananas natively.
Crossover cleaned up quite a bit. I am not sure if I want reduce the woofer down to 14/4 as well or leave them as independent runs. Either way I will be moving Furez wire (from the current Amazon basic) just to be consistent. Not in love with the terminations but for now they work. Thoughts on better bananas appreciated.
Spades that I will be using for the speaker terminals. Link to specs:
15w linear powersupply from Weiliang (dime a dozen Chinese manufacturer) that has the upgraded telema transformer. Link to specs. Connected using a 5 foot Cullen Cable Crossover Series powercable. Link to specs.
Note: I also have parts to build a Twisted Pear Centaur linear powersupply thanks to @SCompRacer and will be building that and trying it against the Weiliang.
Furman AC-215a at the wall. No plans to upgrade its cable from stock. Eliminates the power cables from sticking far out from the wall before turning. Link to specs
Note: I realize it’s only 10 amp and the outlet is 25 but I don’t think it will be a problem.
Cleaned up setup
