| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @kota1 you have to understand that the world I’m in is even beyond studio high end globally. Studios are on a price / performance budget. Many use the DAD converters in the AVID MTRX. Awful DA. Compromise in commercial rooms is normal. This format... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @kota1 i came here only to refute this absurd thread. Not here to post pictures. None of the rooms you posted have the cohesion plus dynamics plus resolution plus DA/amp/cable quality here. Photos are PR ... means nothing. Atmos done right is 12 o... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @lonemountain happy to participate today, glad you're enjoying. @kota1 This thread is a relative newbies insult at the whole forum, so I have no problem with responding in kind. All of his equipment is (to me obviously) mid fi. There is nothing ... | |
| What is Your Opinion of Atmos Music? As far as getting into the format as a speaker listener, there is no rush, most of the products are not up to par compared to great stereo. I recommend Trinnov Processing for high end rooms, and for starter rooms you can get in with $15,000 no pr... | |
| What is Your Opinion of Atmos Music? @kota1 My personal and professional opinions of Atmos/Spatial ... it’s the evolution of the headphone format, unintentionally created by all involved. Not much released at the moment is great work, so early days. As a speaker format it’s fun and ... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @kota1 you seem like someone who’s not in the music making profession, but someone who is very passionate and I appreciate your passion. A few things that you need to understand. 1. posting pictures of studios means nothing. Everything is done in ... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @donavabdear I’m happy to see that you’re excited about the new format, I work in every week.I have a very high-end atmos and stereo room, and the only analog hardware focused, mastering Atmos room in the world at the moment. Going back to your p... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @donavabdear I’ve been listening to studio monitors and hi-fi speakers for probably 40 years. 1. Your Genis are not very good in the grand scheme. The Geni Sheen is not accuracy it’s massive distortion from DA and DSP and cheap amps. Yet ... If y... | |
| Question about Class A You’re going down the right road looking for class A, don’t listen to anyone who says that a properly made class D amp has the qualities you seem to seek. A, A/B, D etc. each have a flavor. Although some A/B are biased for a handful of watts at t... | |
| Dolby Atmos - is it for Audiophiles? As a stereo mastering specialist, using MM3+Exact, Allnic Audio A-6000 monos and Bricasti M1 SE DA, I am turned off by the corporate push for complexity that will lead to a $600 soundbar or headphones for most.99.999% of the world has never heard ... | |
| Why don't more recordings have soundstage outside of speakers @andy2 it’s about mix and (mostly) mastering. Then of course, the room set up. Width is not about width ONLY ... width needs a defined MID with distinct L and R SIDES. It’s hard physics. | |
| MQA is for chumps Good to see people coming around to what I heard years ago, as did many people I respect. YET there are too many false ideas still being put forward. The main issues I have as a mastering engineer and an artist advocate, and a person who has done ... | |
| I just bought a Steinway which sounds like a banjo. First off, it’s a snarky post, get over yourself. Secondly as was said, your adjectives are NOUNS. Thirdly, pianos sound VERY different even in the same size, just like speakers do ... from Steinway B (boring and predictably overused) to Mason and... | |

| Gave up my SET----looking for moderate to higher power replacement options If you love the sound that you had you’re not gonna find it by going backwards on SET or A or AB or certainly Class D and you’re not gonna find it for two or $3000, that’s absurdThings that sounds THAT great are heavy and hot and take power and th... |
