| 30 yr old speakers- time to replace drivers? After you calculate the cost to replace the cross-over and driver, and time, I suggest you also listen around for new speakers or newish but used, in the same price range. You may be able to enjoy an upgrade for a similar price, or not, but worth... | |
| Is There A Better Solution? I am not sure I fully understand your question but I have a system that is for music and TV. The music path is streamer, dac, pre-amp, amps, R & L speakers. The TV path is cable box, AVR, center channel speakers and back channels and pre-out... | |
| The End of My Search for a Power Conditioner @jfrmusic Did you plug your amp(s) into the Gemini or only your other components? What amp(s) are you running? Thanks. | |
| ??? How Much Would You Spend ??? I would buy used and spend 2 to 4k. | |
| Physically Comfortable Headphones Get open back headphones so it is cooler. I like the sound better anyway. And, look for a set that has metal in the upper band that goes over the heard, then simply bend the metal a bit it to fit your head. Finally, look for felt or fabric ear ... | |
| Is "detailed" audiophile code for too much treble? This is a great thread - I had the same questions and this thread is very informative. It seemed to me, that for my ear, with each bump up in resolution or detail due to better components, the tone or frequency shifted slightly upwards, making th... | |
| Six DAC Comparison @ltmandella Were you using the Benchmark DAC as only a DAC or as a DAC and volume control? Thanks. | |
| Microphone recommendation for recording 2 channel demos Check out the Zoom H4n Pro. I used one when my son was playing guitar and drums to catch some memories. It will get you started and then you can add external mics if needed. | |
| My stereo Very nice. I bet it sounds great. | |
| New Speakers under consideration - but I’m afraid I second the suggestion for Focal speakers. They are great all-rounds and have the ability reproduce the wide variety of music you like. With your biamping, they would sound great. Great deals on the used market. As others have said, you shoul... | |
| new member, some questions, need help please Similar spot as you but maybe a year or two ahead. I will parrot back the good advice I received from this site. I suggest listening to different systems as much as you can. Different speakers and equipment will present different sound or sound di... | |
| What Power Amplifier Should I Buy? I liked the PS AUDIO BK250 as well. Like it so much I bought another and now vertically biamp. It imparts of bit of tube sound, but has a solid state output stage. I find it to be a nice compromise. I have the F208s but they are not hooked up t... | |
| Eversolo DMP-A8 bypassing my preamp despite setting to fixed volume out I don't have experience with that unit, but I would check to see if only one output from it can be bypassed. I had a device once that had one specific output that could be set to unity gain. | |
| YouTube Indicates What the Future is For Audiophiles - Interesting Demographics. I think the demographics would be the same 20 years ago and in 20 years. When I was younger I was out doing active stuff and disposable income was spent on kids and pay off debt. | |
| Six DAC Comparison Having just read this thread, it seems as if many comments are responding to the wrong thread. @mitch2 Thanks for spending the time and effort to provide your listening impressions. I have a DAC3 that you are listening to and am interested to... |
