2023 AXPONA Show Report

The worst part of these shows is the horrendous BO smell in the listening rooms. Imagine a small hotel room packed with people all day... go figure. Not trying to knock the show. It's worthwhile but brace yourselves!!!

@advanced101 

I notice you have a Luxman amp.  Are you using the A50's as fully powered speakers, or just the bass section? 

Have you seen the AM Acoustics room mode simulator? It helps place speakers outside of the worst room modes, and your listening room too.  Have you measured your room? I'm curious how great you can make it sound if you took full advantage of the DSP capabilities of those amps.

It’s the semi-active A50-II, so the 30w Luxman is only amplifying the upper 3 Ellipticors.

The suite of REW measurements have given me an idea of what my room is doing and helped me figure out room treatments and their positioning but, mostly, been tweaking by ear.

I don’t have the skills to leverage everything the Hypex software can do, but am happy with one of the two presets Troels offers for the 15” woofers.

@blisshifi I will look for you. You are a great guy and positive poster on Audiogon.

@bubba12 Sure, would love to meet. I’ll be working at the DH Labs booth a bit, but also splitting time between the T+A room and AV Luxury International when I’m not exploring on my own. Feel free to PM and I can share my cell if you want to coordinate.
