Best speakers out there for Midrange and Highs I also have the JL-CR 1 which I use to bi-amp my Artemis Eos 2.1 speakers. They have two separate boxes, each larger than average, and resemble Watt/Puppies. I use an ML 534 amp on top, and a pair of Wyred 4 Sound mAmps on the bottom. I really l... | |
Why are tweeters so high off of the ground in many tower speakers... 2channel8, I would raise the speakers or lower your chair. I got that same result when I tried raising my couch five inches. I will be trying again but only by two inches. | |
Why are tweeters so high off of the ground in many tower speakers... I experimented by bringing my couch up five inches to bring my ears to tweeter height. The result was like I was looking down on the stage from the cheap seats. Horrible, I quickly went back to my current seating height. To achieve the thirty i... | |
Why are tweeters so high off of the ground in many tower speakers... Thanks to all for their input. My question was more general than one that concerns my set-up. I referenced my speakers as a starting-point for the discussion rather than a plea for help. But, since many respondents have taken the time to address... | |
Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Lewm, I am tired of the mechanics of turntable life. I am somewhat of a perfectionist so I spent a good deal of time and money using devices to ensure that every aspect of stylus on vinyl was just so, to say nothing of all of the downstream aspe... | |
High Quality bi-amp-able full range speakers - choices? Reubent,I use an external crossover between the pre-amp and the bass amps, it is a dbx 234xs. I have it set to the volume and frequency that I think best match the tops and bottoms. I have had a lot of people listen to my system and there is agr... | |
High Quality bi-amp-able full range speakers - choices? Johnsonwu,Thanks for that unexpected response. Do you have any specific info on re-capping the x-overs?Shadorne,ATC fully powered speakers sounds like an interesting option to look into, Thanks.David-Ten,I call your attention to the first paragra... | |
Best Computer Speakers I have a pair of Mirage OMD-5's powered by an Audioengine N22 integrated amp on my desktop, and an M&K MX70B subwoofer under the desk. My source is Roon on my desktop and an iDSD dac. The sound is excellent and the omni-directional OMD-5's pl... | |
Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? While I am posting to this thread I wonder if others in our situation are keeping an eye on the latest Technics coreless dd turntable. I hate that they chose the SL1200 model to follow and hope that they will consider the SP10 model for a new eve... | |
Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? pbnaudio,As you are working on setting up a TT-101 I have a question: can you consider what it would require to pull the power board and transformer out of the tin can and mount them in a separate box? I would love to do this as it is a source o... | |
Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? pbnaudio,Sorry for the delay in responding - I check this thread less often than I used to. Yes, adjusting the bearing cap does change the height and your instructions are probably right. I diddled with that for quite a while but then I changed ... | |
Does anyone have an opinion about the new P S Audio Bridge 2 ? jwt,I just had to respond to your finding that the PS Audio PW DS Dac sounded veiled. I have three dacs including that one and have the exact opposite conclusion. One thing I would suggest (not knowing if it applies to you) the DSD doesn't sound... | |
Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? Continuing my last post, I believe that the out-of-round condition must be in the record not the table because records are imprecise and therefore very likely to have that problem and if both the table and the record were at fault the trace would ... | |
Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? I believe that Halcro posted three gimballed arms - the only unipivots that I noticed was the VPI on the Classic Direct. It showed a rather ragged trace. I lean towards the idea that the regular speed changes on the Feickert traces are the result... | |
Vintage DD turntables. Are we living dangerously? I propose (without any data to back me up) that the tonearm has a lot of influence on the shape of the Feickert App speed deviations. I believe that unipivots are more easily excited by the 3D eccentricities of the records and thus show a more rag... |
