Trigger Question ??

Postby MasterCylinder » 12 Dec 2011 18:37

Greetings, I'm wanting to purchase a Krell KAV-250a Amplifier, the Krell has 12vdc in/out trigger inputs. My existing AV receiver has a 6vdc trigger out. Will this work?

Cheers,
Steve

Actually being a audio related forum I had hoped (in vain apparently) that some one might understand :shock:

here's my current 10mm carry piece and the trigger is flawless on this one :wink:

It's why you're allowed to have one at all, let alone be proud of it, that stumps us non-US citizens.

Nice piece you've got there. It's much flashier than my Astra .380. Many Europeans don't understand the American attitude about firearms. If they lived here they might feel different.

Why don't you ask Krell if a different trigger voltage will work.

First...Thank you for your service !!!

Second, I did talk to Krell and the tech didn't have any data with specific information on the circuitry activation. What I have found "some do and some don't" :) I guess it really don't matter, I've always kept my SS amps plugged in ... Unless I'm gone for an extended length of time.

Here in Aus handguns are allowed with cat H licience. Cat ab is rifles, shotguns and rimfire rifles. I have not bothered with getting my H yet as it is a lot of trouble, but for me on a large cattle property it would be useful and it is why many if not all cattle station owners have handguns. If you find a fallen cow suffering a handgun is ideal, also having been charged by a huge hog once :shock: and I mean huge, working on the land you need protection from wild pigs and dogs ect and an easy to carry handgun is ideal rather than a big rifle.
I cant speak for the US as I dont know the country, but here just about all gun crime is committed by non licence holders with illegal guns. Those who own regestered firearms are not the problem so why should they not be allowed to own them?
I know a few people with handguns in Aus and they either are cattle men or shoot competition, or at the range for fun. All the handguns like other guns in Aus must be stored in a thick steel cabinet bolted to the floor and wall with ammo in a seperate place. I read recently here in Aus at least most handguns of crime are homemade by backyard gunsmiths. This is not as hard as you may imagine as barrels are freely available and any idiot could make an action on a lathe. I find it rather annoying when those who know little about the subject asking for this or that gun to be banned, when it would not solve the gun problems anyway and only affect those who are the perfectly law abiding owners. You wont stop illegal guns and it is the illegal ones that are the problem (here at least)not the regestered ones. I have recently started to shoot competition big bore at up to 1000 yards, but this aside most of my shooting has been on the farm and unpleasant.
Sorry to the op for the off totic, but I felt it needed saying

Mate.. perhaps what some outside of this Continent don't understand is that there is a term used here akin to that used in the USA for similar reasons - The Deep North.

But I must thank 'big' Tex for something.
I'm not really a gambler, but I did win cash on that 'commies' jibe. Predictable but very wrong if you tried to target me.
btw... I won't be regimented and proud to have been called a dissident.

The 'Clear Thinkers' probably know the meaning of the word RATIONALISATION.
If some don't know that meaning of that and how it applies to a number of replies here, perhaps look it up and think about it... if you can.

Thats my last comment on this sicko matter, other than to use other curious words that don't seem to follow further comment made.... I hope that leaves a nasty exit wound. :lol:

LOL ?

Misha,
Yet another baffling post :-s .Not sure what you are on about, but I am sure you do... The exit wound comment I agree is a bit much as I dont like to think about shooting anyone, I have enough trouble killing a terminally sick cow, all the same I see nothing wrong at all with law abiding gun ownership of any kind. For me they are tools, like a spade to a gardener. I am sure a pic of a spade would not have raised a similar knee jerk reaction..

Unfortunately, in some areas, they are a toy that "everybody" wants. Not good.

An interesting topic, but we are soo off topic, how about a split topic as respect to the OP?
My feeling with guns is licencing is very important. You are not really going to commit a crime with a police reg gun it is going to be an illigal one. Also here in Aus to get a licence you need to give a genuine reason to aquire. Mine is primary production, ie my work (farm). If you wish a gun to hunt with and you have no land, you need a letter from a land owner giving permission otherwise you will ony be granted a limited licence that you can only use the gun on the range and then you need to shoot a certain number of shoots per year or you loose it. Nearly all gun crime is illigal guns and there is almost never issues with licenced owners. Glad to live in what is still a free country.
IMO guns never kill, it it the idiot holding it, unfortunatly whatever legeslation is passed you will never stop idiots and prevent them getting hold of illigal guns.

I'm happy to let this thread run as long as it doesn't drift too much into the politics of gun ownership.

To be honest, most people who live in countries where gun ownership is tightly regulated don't see the regulations as a restriction on their freedom any more than having speed limits or drink driving laws. It just isn't an issue. If I want to shoot I can join a gun club. If I had a farm I could apply for a shotgun licence. I can't carry a firearm to protect myself or my property, but then most muggers and burglars over here don't carry firearms either!

If you live in a country where you feel the need for this sort of protection from other people or the state then I support your right to vote for laws that allow this, but please don't tell me that you have more freedom. You don't, you just live in a more dangerous country :wink:

Now that's out of the way, from a purely sporting perspective I quite fancy joining a gun club as I was a keen marksman when I was younger. I'm not interested in killing anything, just shooting at targets. Now I just have to find an upstanding member of the community to vouch for my good character :lol:

JaS

Plinking targets can be good fun, but my Dad found out recently how difficult it is to get a rifle in the UK. A had a shotgun in the UK, but a rifle is another story. I cant think why as I know what I would rather be shot by :D .
I dont think of guns as the Americans do for personal protection. If I need protection of a gun it is time to move IMO, but for a farmer, or for fun, competion at the range with law abiding persons what is the problem?
I recently shot a competition at Atherton on the 1km range were the bull is the size of a beer mat, great fun and a real buzz when you hit it! No killing either :D
