| Harbeth Super HL 5 Plus room size? No issues in your room especially if you listen as close as you described. They can create some bass modes near the wall behind the listening spot in smaller rooms if you are backed up against it. | |
| Floor Standing Speakers That Would Sound Good With the NAD Integrated Amplifier. I had a NAD C356BEE and C272 power amp that was bi-amping a pair of PSB T6 towers- new model equivalent would be PSB X2T. Deep and impactful bass- the bass response on those PSB speakers is incredible and your amp will deliver the goods. Midran... | |
| Opinions of GoldenEar Triton 1 I listened to the one quite a bit- did not care for it. driver incoherence, image shifting and some detectable harshness at volume. The one/R sounded much better, the bass was phenomenal but the midrange was colored, flat and unnatural. they so... | |
| Harbeth vs. Focal - Apples and Oranges... why are you married to the focals? what kind of sound are your after?I heard the 30.2 and they seemed overly smooth with a class A amplifier and vinyl front end. with the right system tuning / cables they are hard to beat for a natural sound. lo... | |
| Why so many JL Audio Fathom subs for sale I wonder They are a high quality, popular subwoofer but adding subwoofers to a system can cause disillusionment. | |
| Sub to complement KEF LS50s: SVS vs. Rythmik i had the ls50s successfully integrated with a single JL Audio D110 subwoofer and the sound was excellent. JL makes high quality sounding subwoofers and the tone of the bass is what they really do well, the tone of the notes is addictive. slam a... | |
| MartinLogan Subwoofers- Don't Overlook Them! noble," I’m fairly certain the exact number of subs considered acceptable in a domestic room is higher for most men than most women" we definitely agree on that point ! I would like to hear the 4-subwoofer swarm system one day, possibly at AXPON... | |
| MartinLogan Subwoofers- Don't Overlook Them! @gochurchgo I have them connected with high level speaker connections, which has sounded better on my particular amplifier than line out connections. Having these connections (like my old JL Audio sub) was one reason that I picked them | |
| MartinLogan Subwoofers- Don't Overlook Them! @millercarbon of course two subwoofers in a room do offer advantages but the design and spec of the subwoofer is critical. At this point having two subwoofers has negated the issues I had using a single sub and until I find something to compla... | |
| Pondering a Speaker Upgrade your speakers are nice but not very natural sounding. the B&W 805 d3 can sound very natural but as you said on the small side and also have a peak in the bass response that causes them to emphasize a certain bass note frequency frequently. I ... | |
| Thoughts on extending speaker life. I would not hesitate to use armor all if i thought the surrounds needed it. i have some original polk monitors that are over 30 years old and show no signs of deterioration- but they are rubber surrounds and the grilles have always been in place.... | |
| Speaker Break In...? Or listener “Break In”? this should not be a question for anyone who has ever purchased new speakers and paid attention to them. | |
| Anyone know how to set up Rythmik subwoofers on an ARCAM AVE550 receiver? I have been looking at the F12 G (the G has the paper cone material). The lighter weight material supposedly makes the texture of the bass more lifelike and dynamic for music with a very fast response and decay. Regardless these seem to be speci... | |
| Where are the subs? I bet you are running a hefty power amplifier! People might be surprised what their main speakers are capable of given the right power from a quality amplifier. In my previous system running very good dual 6-1/2" woofer ported tower speakers an... | |
| Wharfedale Linton Heritage 85th Anniversary They aren't even close and it might not be about quality- it's about voicing. They are voiced differently and I prefer the Harbeth sound by a mile. |
