| Aurender n200, talk me out of signing on the dotted line As others have mentioned, the Conductor App can be an issue for some people. For me, I can not add a song to a Qobuz playlist and support is still troublshooting. Original ticket was a month or so ago. In addition, the program crashes once per se... | |
| My end game speaks. @skydog25 You are in a wonderful situation. I have not listened to those exact speakers. I have listed to the Magicos A series and the S series a step down at two dealers (short sessions) and I have spent alot of time listening to the Focal Sca... | |
| A listening test of two power amps @surdo Great post and listening exercise. I listen with my ears and not my eyes or wallet. That being said, there is no wrong answer because everyone hears differently and prefers a different sound profile. I will listen this weekend on my ma... | |
| Searching for a little more warmth @croissantfoxwine My suggestion is to swap out the Node for a streamer that is at a level that matches the rest of your system. The helpful advice I received was that I need to start with an ideal signal before I start changing other things around... | |
| Bryston 7B3 vs 4B3: Extra Cost Worthwhile? I would be interested to know Benchmarks thoughts on damping factor. Assuming the same 10’ cables are used, I believe the damping factor is halved, down to 85 bridged in to an 8 ohm speaker. From Benchmark web site: Nevertheless, it is possible ... | |
| My Aurender N150 is stuck in repeat mode Is anyone else unable to add a new track to a Qobuz playlist in C4? I go through the process and C4 says it is adding the track to the playlist, but the track never appears, even after 1/2 hour. I reported this problem to them about a month ago,... | |
| Bryston 7B3 vs 4B3: Extra Cost Worthwhile? @jfrmusic As another data point, I have one AHB2 for my Focal speakers. I like the AHB2 at this stage in my path, but it is not be for everyone. I have been considering a second AHB2 and enjoy trying different arrangements and listening for diffe... | |
| Bryston Cubed Amps in Bridge Mode @jimmy2615 Thanks. That's helpful. | |
| Bryston Cubed Amps in Bridge Mode @jimmy2615 What benefits did you find running the amps vertically biamped? When you vertically biamped, did you use shorter cables between the amp and the speaker? I tried (for a short listening session) my amp (not Bryston) bridged last night an... | |
| First Bi Amping Experience Are you using a Y cable to split the pre-amp output? Are you using any crossover before the amp? Thanks. | |
| Emotiva XPA-2 Gen 3 or NAD C 275BEE or Rotel RB-1582 MkII for Revel F208 I had the F208s. The AHB2 sounded good and a nice step up from an RZ820 AVR. IMO, any of those amps you list would work well - I have always liked Rotel. | |
| You don't lack bass, you have too much treble @curiousjim Perhaps you just don’t like those instruments which produce sound at those frequencies. It’s not your system. I don’t like trumpets live or recorded and if I built a system to make the trumpet tolerable to me, it would be a misrepresen... | |
| You don't lack bass, you have too much treble To make a room sound less bright, are diffusers or absorbers, or both, suggested? Thanks. | |
| who makes custom speakon speaker cables for the Benchmark AHB2? Blue Jean Cable confirmed that they can make cables with Speakon. I suspect that BM uses Canare 4S11 cable. | |
| who makes custom speakon speaker cables for the Benchmark AHB2? I tried to respond but Audiogon blocked my post. Oh well. |
