| New TT : Balanced vs. Unbalanced Connection? The turntable itself is neither balanced or unbalanced, it is the cartridge that can either be wired balanced or unbalanced and it is my understanding that virtually all cartridges are capable of being wired balanced. If you use the XLR connectors... | |
| Subwoofer xLr connection I assume that the 1100XL is a discontinued model since a search on their website ends with no results? Regardless you can connect a balanced XLR output to an unbalanced XLR input. They will work, you just will not get the common mode noise rejecti... | |
| Using PA Speakers In A Home "Audiophile" Application! Currently in my system I am using some touring level outboard gear with what I think are excellent results. I am not using touring level speakers but I have been wanting to compare some of Meyer Sound Labs products like the UPM-1P, UltraX20 and th... | |
| Little help with REL subwoofers, please? You can try a T9x or a T7x to see what happens. Hopefully you can get them on a trial basis. As long as neither sub can reproduce the offending frequency of the room with enough power you should be good to go, but if either of the subs can reprodu... | |
| Little help with REL subwoofers, please? Classical organ can cycle very low. To reproduce frequencies below 40 Hz. takes insane amounts of power and when you factor in that our ears are not as sensitive to lower frequencies the task can become particularly difficult. I’m not sure that ev... | |
| Musical subwoofer under $2000 Before you buy any sub read this first. https://soundoctor.com/whitepapers/subs.htm In my opinion if you are not listening to loud bass driven rock of some type, the addition of a subwoofer to a full range speaker will not make a big enough impac... | |
| Rhythmic F12SE setup using line in I believe that your Marantz along with the Audyssey was performing both low and high pass functions and some e.q. functions. If you are unable to incorporate the Audyssey into your current setup you no longer have any of their benifets I.e. clear.... | |
| REL .LFE input Why not just use the left and right low level inputs? Or does your REL not have them? | |
| What are your exact settings for volume and low pass filter on your SVS sub? I have 2) SB4000’s paired with Wilson Tune-Tots. I have the SVS output levels set at -3, but the whole system is controlled by a XTA DSP unit, using Audiocore software installed on a laptop. Crossover points and volume levels will vary somewhat d... | |
| Which frequency to adjust if voices/mids give me a headache. If the irritation seems to be brash or brassy, I agree with the 1.5k to 1.6k give or take 500 Hz. assessment. If the irritation is more shrill, I find more often than not that the offending frequency is around 3.1k. It could also be both regions. ... | |
| Really Long XLR Mogami W2534 Neglex Quad cable $1.19/ft. from Redco Audio. Neutrik NC3FXX-B and NC3FXX-B typically less than $5.00 each. I believe Mogami is the preferred cable for professional recording studios. | |
| Midrange Increasingly Harsh The cause of your issue can be anything in the chain from start to finish, including the source material, cables, seating location and the room itself. All you can do is replace one item at a time and listen to see if the problem has gone away. Do... | |
| I'm going to buy my first tube amp. I need honest blunt opinions @soix +1 @atmasphere +1 I'm using a pair of Atma-Sphere MA-1's to drive a pair 8 ohm 87 db efficient Wilson's with great results, but I'm also using subs to drive every thing from 177 Hz on down. If I wasn't using subs I would want to find the h... | |
| Subwoofer Advice & Therapy :) Before you purchase a sub you should read this. https://www.soundoctor.com/whitepapers/subs.htm This white paper was written by a former JL Audio engineer, hence all of the JL Audio product references, but there are other options that are just ... | |
| SVS SB-2000 Pro/3000 vs. REL T/7x Both sealed. This is Incorrect. The T/7x is not sealed, it has a 10” passive radiator on the bottom of the cabinet. I currently own SVS, REL and Rythmik subs. Used 100% for music. I would choose either SVS or Rythmik over the REL. Besides bein... |
