| Raising Subs? When I had subwoofers in my system the biggest reason for moving them in any direction was to make the response as even as possible in their output band. through measuring and listening you find that if they are too close to a wall or other boun... | |
| Goldenear BRX Stand Height Always follow the manufacturer's positioning guidelines. So many people unhappy with the sound of their system did not even bother to read the manual. Not always about tweeter height at ear level either. KEF for example wants the LS50 tweeter... | |
| GoldenEar Triton Reference for a large room... They have powered, adjustable active bass drivers, seems ideal for your situation. Other options would include higher efficiency speakers like volti audio, klipsch cornwalls, andio note AN-E | |
| 12AU7 tubes for a Rouge Audio Sphinx V3 Integrated Mullards never worked for me- just did not care for the overall sound. FYI the JJs take a LONG time to burn in- they ship with McIntosh too and don't really smooth out until 700 hrs or so- no joke. In the mean time try amperex bugle boy, made ... | |
| My Medium List of Amplifiers and my Personal Review of Each ! @willgolf Yes, these are all amplifiers I have owned and know very well. Most recently the Parasound JC5 and after ~ 120 hrs. it has been a roller coaster ride the way the sound keeps changing ! | |

Tube amps tend to soft clip so that could be a solution- find a deal on a Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum II or III and you will have plenty of power and dynamics with zero... | |
| My Medium List of Amplifiers and my Personal Review of Each ! Sure- Preamp- Cary SLP-05 Speakers- Spendor D7.2 Congrats on the amp- definitely give it at least 50 to 60 hours. I was ready to return it after the first couple of days. | |
| What speakers have you mistakenly let go and then later repurchased? Spendor D7. Didn't know what I had- sold them and 3 years later bought the D7.2 which are "it". | |
| SL-1200G/Hana ML Best Headshell The tested effective mass of the GR tonearm is the best actual data I have seen for this spec and the G arm should be very close to this number. Effective mass as spec'd for tonearms is a qualification of its inertia or resistance to motion, not... | |
| Bookshelf vs diffuser panel. Who wins? @jumia where is the book case located? side wall issues can be greatly minimized with speaker positioning. | |
| SL-1200G/Hana ML Best Headshell From the HiFi News test report- | |
| Best Preamp and Amp combination, interesting finding!!! can you name names and compare all 4 possible combinations? otherwise we have not really learned anything. | |
| SL-1200G/Hana ML Best Headshell I have read that the technics arm was tested to have a 9g effective mass. the stock headshell has a lighter mass than most if not all aftermarket head shells, something i have found valuable trying to match cartridges. another plus for the ... |
