Thanks to all for the replies. Still puzzling why the links (HERE) didn't work. The issue with the C-1 preamp is an extremely loud pop in the audio output when the power is turned off. Only happened once, which freaked me out because I was afraid it took out my Tannoy System 15 monitors. This was 3 or 4 years ago. Have been using a Crown Straight Line 2 preamp since then. The M1.5t power amp just quit delivering audio a few months after the POP problem with the preamp. Instead of audio, it outputs fairly loud 60Hz hum with a HF buzz mixed in. It was working one day, then the problem was present the next day when I turned it on. I am now using a matrix DSP processor made by my previous employer for crossover feeding two Onkyo power amps to biamp the Tannoy System 15 speakers. I could post a complete description of my entire setup, but most of you would probably laugh. Might be worth a chuckle. I have two separate systems that feed each other back and forth - a stereo system with the Crown preamp and biamped Tannoys mentioned above, and an Onkyo based 7.1 surround system. After finally getting all the delays close to right, it's very entertaining in my 17 by 34 foot listening room that has only two parallel walls and vaulted ceiling. I have recently finished my MTM concept speakers that I will try in the front L-R positions in the 7.1 surround system. Initial listening to some 24-bit digitized copies of 80's era direct to disk vinyl is "gratifying" given the amount of time I have invested in the design and build of the MTMs. I could ramble on, but have things to do. I would very much appreciate a wild guess from Nahash5150 regarding the cost of restoring the C-1 and M1.5t components.
