| Aurender Conductor App suddenly acting odd How do you get Conductor to make up a random playlist? | |
| Fritz carbon 7SE MK 2, Upgrade @robshaw Rob, we have a nice sized audio group here in Nashville area. As we try and move from one person's home to the next each month, we get to hear a huge variety of gear. Today (Saturday) is another gtg where this owner has an analog setup ... | |
| Strategy for upgrading long interconnect cable run Peter, I have an 18 foot run from preamp to amp. Before I settled on Wywires and was fortunate to find a very long Wywires pair I daisy chained cables for the better part of 2 years. I found that the last 3 to 6 feet impacted the sound and reflec... | |
| What are your top three live concerts of all time? Pat Travers at a local bar in Rome NY in the late 70's. Still hear those drums after standing 10 feet away and marveling. Instant Pat Travers fan. Also, Talas fan and spent many a night in clubs in awe of their power of the trio. The drummer had ... | |
| What does your DAC sound like I bought a Denafrips Pontus 655th edition dac from a member here over a year ago to see what all the fuss was about. It was solid, heavy, well built, but sounded like crap. I was confused. I ran it constantly for weeks and still no improvement. Ve... | |
| Validation @noromance @mahgister Thanks folks. I try to address each area the best I can. The room was existing, so I could not rebuild it as it is the only room over the garage and exposed to the elements on 3 sides. My take is audiophiles must conside... | |
| What's ideal size for a listening room? You can use many site calculators to predict what modes you will have in a room, or likewise, try to design a room that avoids piling up of room modes.. For instance, AMROC has a calculator where the results are visual and as you slide your cursor... | |
| Best DAC’S $5k to $15k @mijostyn same here with the Bricasti, but before long I will get to hear Bill's Cinnamon Galle dac. He has great taste in gear. I'd like to try different sounding dacs, but it sure gets to be expensive doing so. | |
| Attention Horn Owners Come on out to TN and we'll show you a good time. Volti is maybe 2 hours south of the airport and we have plenty of audiophools around Nashville who can open their doors for you. | |
| Validation I will crush you!! Yes, very competitive and constantly striving for improvement. And you will say nice things about my sound, or..... I will crush you! Happy listening. | |
| Room Treatments - ATS Corner Bass Trap @hbarrel You are very welcome I updated my TN systems page with new pics of the room and the traps. I have smaller triangle bas traps in the rear corners also behind the Real Traps diffusers. | |
| Room Treatments - ATS Corner Bass Trap @hbarrel Foam is not a bass absorber. Don't waste your time with those. And foam is not effective on the other frequencies other than the most highest and shortest. There is data out there where you can see the comparisons. Rockwool or equivalent... | |
| Room Treatments - ATS Corner Bass Trap @hbarrel They look nice. Good color selections and decent NRC numbers. I just installed some Acoustimac 6 inch bass traps in the corners up high in my room because they build them lighter than I do. A two inch panel is not going to do diddly for b... | |
| Room Treatments - ATS Corner Bass Trap Do what you can to tame the bass. There are limits and room modes are "almost" impossible to overcome (wrt flattening the response curve). Take a look at my TN 2023 system page for before and after bass traps response curves. I have it slightly "f... | |
| Footers under new speakers Rogue Hera, awesome preamp. About 20 years ago I had one on loan for 2 weeks and loved it. My ignorance of tube microphonics at the time dissuaded me from keeping it as I was heating the tinkling of the tubes at idle and thought it was a defect. ... |
