| tough choices Per the Sonos Faber Aida owners manual these speakers do not have to be Tri-amped. They can be Tri-amped but they are also designed to be driven by a single stereo amp or mono blocks if that is what the owner desires or can afford. Also with the A... | |
| Audiophile system for Techno and Dance music In my opinion, techno and dance music, is loud and bass driven music, so you would want a system that had plenty of power, especially low end power. I would also go with a balanced system over a single ended system. A true balanced system should g... | |
| Should I use long interconnects, or long speaker cables? I have my turntable set up in what most consider the worst possible location, tucked into a corner just behind and to the left of the left speaker. To make matters worse the table the TT sits on, sits on a suspended wood floor of the second story ... | |
| Bass Driver Size - how much better is an extra inch? Don't confuse frequency response with impulse response (impact) in regards to low frequency drivers. While a well designed 6.5" driver can cycle quite low in a well designed cabinet, it will only have a fraction of the impulse response of a large... | |
| Will 12 inch subwoofer be enough for an 18x20 room (with 10 ft cielings) Depends on what you listen to and how loud you listen to it.I have a 10 x 14 x 9 room and a 4 sub dba made up of three different brands; 2-13" subs and 2-12" subs.

| Adding a sub woofer? Hi Ryan,Depending on how large your room is, what types of music you like to listen to and how loud you like to listen to it, a single PSB 250 or even two maybe too small.What are the pros and cons of using the sub's preamp level inputs vs the spe... | |
| Total bass suck out at 40hz The only frequency response chart I could find for the NS-1000M inexplicably stopped at 200 Hz, but according to that chart the NS-1000M starts to roll off at approximately 630 Hz with 200 Hz being approximately 6db lower. According to Hifi News t... | |

| Help me understand "the swarm" in the broader audiophile world why doesn't Vandersteen or JL or REL and so on design their own swarm?You can build a Swarm/dba with those brands or any other brand for that matter. All you have to do is buy three of more and place them asymmetrically around your room. You can e... | |
| Woofer pumping possibly due to tube amp when playing vinyl I had a woofer pumping issue when playing vinyl a couple of years ago. The first thing I did was make sure the TT was as level as I could get it which helped a little bit. The other thing I did was place the TT on some anti-vibration pads like the... | |
| Rel vs the world I currently own and I am using a REL, Rythmik and SVS subs in my system. What would you like to know? | |
| Is Sub Gain Set&Forget Across Music Genres a Fallacy? Nothing wrong with your system. There is a huge amount of variation in how recordings are mixed and mastered. Multiple subs and room treatment will only help if you have low end booming issues. I have multiple subs in my system and constantly ha... |
