I too ran into the same problem with disc 2 (although side A). Right around the 22:00 mark it starts to stutter and then finally locks up. Tried it on a few different players, all of which lock at exactly the same place (although the behavior up to the lock differed some from player to player)...

Todd, I use a Denon AVR-3803, which has no trouble driving the M80s and overheating has never been an issue. In fact, the Denon is barely warm even after extended use. Cheers, Seth

Todd, I have owned my M80tis since last July and I am very happy with them. I didn't audition the Klipsch, so I can't say much about comparisons. Some have thought the Axioms too "bright", but I find them pleasently clear and have very good bass extention, as well. Some reviews have also...

Chu, If there are two types of electrons, it is news to me! I would take this with a HUGE (i.e. truckload) grain of salt. BTW, electrons don't "hit the structure of the conductor" as they pass through it. Electron flow occurs through the stucture or more accurately, the structure determines...

Chu, Your numbers for silver and copper are essentially the same as the first values I posted (adjusted for units, of course), but are only given to two significant figures (although silver should really be 1.6 rather than 1.5). Your value for silver oxide agrees fairly well with the copper...

Chu, After a quick look, the numbers I found were in the range of 100 - 1000 Ohms per cm for the resistivity of Cu2O (at room temp) and the much higher value of 8 x 10^6 Ohms per cm for CuO (also at room temp). I couldn't find any firm numbers for silver oxide, but as it is isoelectronic with...

Hey everyone, I have been a longtime lurker, but this is my first post to the group. However, after reading this thread for the last couple days, I couldn't help but add my two cents. The actual resistivities of the metals discussed here are as follows (all units are in microhms per cm and...
