| Has anyone added a small subwoofer to 2 channel and been thrilled with the result? casteeb, if you’re asking me, I’ve had a few speakers in there, most recently Canton Vento Reference DC9 speakers, which have a surprising amount of bass for small monitors and before that, Klipsch Heresy, which despite having a 12 inch woofer in ... | |
| Have you had enough of Classic Rock? No, never. I'm still "discovering" music that I've never heard or perhaps was dismissive of when I was younger. There's a lot of great music from that era that I'll never get tired of.There's a great classic rock station where I live that plays a ... | |
| Has anyone added a small subwoofer to 2 channel and been thrilled with the result? All of my systems include a subwoofer (or two or three or...).I have a couple off small computer systems in smaller rooms and use small sealed subs in both, a Rythmik F12 in one and a SVS SB12-NSD in the other. I love Rythmik subs and think they a... | |
| Music streamer with no DAC and no storage? Another vote for a BlueSound Node (I have the 2). I have mine connected to my Auralic Vega DAC. | |
| Turntable Interconnects? What don't you like about the BJCs? Are you using the LC-1? They have low capacitance which makes them an excellent choice for use on a turntable. With the level of the rest of your gear you might be better off spending the money somewhere else.... | |
| Peachtree Nova 300 I've owned the Peachtree Nova 300 for about a year and it sounds great and both the DAC and headphone amp are very nice and might make you think twice about getting either a dedicated DAC or headphone amp. A lot of value for the money. | |
| Ahhh--Problem solved. Adding a REL sub-bass unit... I have Legacy Audio Focus 20/20 speakers (3 12" drivers) and ran those for quite a while without a subwoofer, using my subwoofers only for home theater thinking I didn't "need" a sub. I decided to try adding my two SVS SB13 Ultras to the system a... | |
| Kudos to Dan Wright of Modwright I bought a used LS100 here on Audiogon and had some questions about it. Dan didn’t have to, but he was very patient and helpful in answering some questions I had. Not to mention, the LS100 is a wonderful piece of gear. I also like that he’s here i... | |
| Speakers for a small room I have a pair of Canton Vento Reference 9.2 DC speakers that I have really liked in both my bedroom and a spare room about the size of your room. They are rear ported and will need a little space behind them. They produce a surprising amount of... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Last night it was Them Featuring (a young) Van Morrison. G L O R I A! | |
| Is the Music Hall MMF 2.2 a good table for an entry level table? I have 3 Music Hall turntables (including the 2.2) and a Project RPM 9 that use the fishing line / weight anti-skate and they don't fall off unless you move the turntable, hit them with the cover, etc. If yours is falling off with normal use, I'd... | |
| Buying my 1st new LP in 42 years..Suggestions? Don't do it, you might be opening the flood gates to boxes of LPs all over your house and having your family and friends think you've turned into a hoarder! Oh wait, that's me...If you like Roger Waters, pick up Amused to Death from Analogue Prod... | |
| Bass audition for your system.... HSU has files you can download to test your bass. It includes white noise at different frequencies and some orchestral recordings that can make it feel like your house is trying to tear itself apart with the right subwoofers - http://files.hsures... | |
| Manley Chinook or Any comparable Preamp? I've been super happy with my Chinook. I've also had Jolida JD9 and Musical Surroundings Phonomena Nova phono stages. The Chinook is in another class, much quieter than the JD9 and more detailed and dynamic than either the Jolida or Phonomena. | |
| PC+Dac or Streamer I have yet to have any issues with my BlueSound Node 2 either losing my library or dropping out on music, but I've only had it a couple of months. I have a strong wireless router and a wireless access point set up in my rack with a 4 port Etherne... |
