| Driver breakin period, what’s the science? Almost all the break-in occurs, at reasonably loud volume, in the first 5-10 minutes. If you still hate them after that period of time, then you hate them, though keeping them will cause your brain to change far more than the speakers.However, cha... | |
| Takedown of pricey servers, streamers OCD HiFi guy lalitk,I will never have any issue with whatever price someone wants to charge for something. Want to charge $500 for a cable, or $20,000 for a cable or streamer, I have no issue with that.Now if you use wild or impossible claims to justify that $... | |

Unless you hacked into my e-mail account and saw confirmation e-mail, you ar... | |

| Help me tame my out of control bass Magnepans don't magically solve bass nodes unfortunately, however, adding a couple more subwoofers, some electronics for integration, and playing with speaker placement may. That may get your lowest nodes under control, and then you can work on t... | |

| Help me tame my out of control bass erik_squires10,600 posts02-22-2021 10:33amI just looked at your waterfall. That's not your speakers! That solid green line at 120 is background noise. More likely either your equipment or something like an AC running. Bang on erik. It is pretty ... | |
| Better Records White Hot Stampers: Now the Story Can Be Told! millercarbon OP7,755 posts02-18-2021 3:03pmIt’s cute the way you kids think.

| If you stream music from the internet, I can't recommend this more highly Amir may have bias, but the data does not lie. People like to convince themselves of their personal hearing superiority, so they will ignore the data, but that does not make it untrue. This isn't the 70's where all we look at it is a single freque... | |
