| Moving into an apartment with wood joist floors - worried about neighbors hearing There is some solid advise given, and some a bit drastic or too much too soon. I had a loft studio space in an old textile building in MA years ago, so I have some experience. Keep your speakers, do all the normal furnishings you are thinking: rug... | |
| Free air, tighter bass - snake oil or cheap tweaks? @erik_squires Oh gotcha...sort of like "peek-a-boo". Interesting. | |
| Free air, tighter bass - snake oil or cheap tweaks? I'm sorry but I'm a bit dim: what DOES he mean by "covering your speakers"? Like, cover the exposed wood/hard surfaces with fabric or felt (like the front panel of old Spica speakers)? | |
| Cable Break In for the Naysayers @unreceivedogma Nailed it. | |
| Can a DAC do double duty? @jmalen123 I have the PD-65 as well.Sadly, there's something wrong in the laser electronics and it no longer reads a CD. I -LOVED- this CD player. It really had an incredible presence and projected the instruments into the room. I wish I could ... | |
| Can a DAC do double duty? Man, I miss my Pioneer Elite CD Player!!! Yours is a6 CD version? Still running good without any laser issues at all? | |
| A $250 Power Conditioner? @lpretiring there are countless posts on various forums about 'power line conditioners', 'power line filtering' devices, to include the one I mentioned. They all perform the same function, and they all make the same claims, and they all make sam... | |
| Altec "Stonehenge III" speakers from 1977 - Any Good? @jasonbourne71 yea, seen a pair near me for $3500, faded front. Seems nutz to me too, but then again I really have no true frame of 'value' for these vs the actual sound. Do you find your bass/mid bass adequate? That is the only thing I am find... | |
| Altec "Stonehenge III" speakers from 1977 - Any Good? Thanks @hiend2 . The Model #19s are what I would -really- like to have, or the 17s. But I had never seen the Stonehenge model and kind of liked the smaller more 'conventional' floor stander as opposed to the large square box. I am curious what... | |
| A $250 Power Conditioner? Again, $35 and it does the same thing. | |
| Young audiophile metal head looking to level up speaker choice @nitewulf My stepfather turned me onto Legacy with his same-as-your Signature SE speakers, which OH MY GOD! He's had Vandersteen and Heron floor standing speakers both very very good and great accuracy, sound stage, etc. But the Legacy line trul... | |
| Speaker Spikes - Working Principle @j-wall Oh now I see what you are working with. You are actually possibly helping two areas and items: the sound reproduction IN the music room, and trying to reduce the impact on the living space BELOW. I have a few of the Herbies rubber things... | |
| Speaker Spikes - Working Principle @j-wall Can you post images when you get a chance? Just to see visually what you were dealing with before and after now that you have logged some sound signature changes. Thanks! | |
| A $250 Power Conditioner? $35. Is and does exactly the same thing. If it "does anything at all". https://greenwavefilters.com/product/greenwave-dirty-electricity-filter/ | |
| Young audiophile metal head looking to level up speaker choice Metal Head here (and Jazz, and Indie Folk, and Blues, and Ambient...) Tons of great recommendations here. Out of -your- choices, the Dyna are best, accurate and detailed but have more of a powerful sound than the others you are looking at. Like ... |
