| Home theater and 2 channel setup from same speakers? Yes, it is MUCH easier than most people think. And it is NOT a compromise of yoru 2 channel sound. HT Bypass as people have mentioned is the official name for it. What it really is, is a seperate input to recieve pre-out from your HT reciever for... | |
| First Gen Multibit Bifrost obsolete? If you are going to compare to the state of the art, it was obsolete the day you bought it. It is an insexpensive (cost effective) DAC. It does not compare well to 5 digit DACs. I have a Bifrost II in my second system. It is, in my opinion, on... | |
| Cable Troubleshooting Find the right connectors and put them on your cables. Don't add extra connections to the signal path. | |
| Still another question about biasing tube amps The OEM calculates the bias for you but they have to assume a tube type. I recommend you learn how to calculate your own bias. It just takes a bit of googling and reading. You'll need to know the plate voltage on your amp. As GS says, it is ... | |
| Allan Taylor Got up this morning. Made coffee. Grabbed breakfast. Sat down. Put on the Beat Hotel, and saw your thread. Hotels and Dreamers is my vote. | |
| Does USB quality matter when ripping CDs? When copying a file, error checking is in place and it will keep correcting until the new file is bit-for-bit the same as the old file. May take a while. (Streaming you don't have time for this so bits get dropped.). In your title, you mentione... | |
| Legacy Audio Focus XD Much like a martin logan, powered woofer and amp driven highs and mids. | |
| Legacy Audio Focus XD Good choice although the Legacy Focus SE (passive) is sensitive enough for SET use at moderate volumes. Jerry | |
| A Very Blissful Christmas Playlist Scroll down on Qobuz featured playlists and there is currently a Classical Christmas playlist. | |
| A Very Blissful Christmas Playlist Thanks. I listen thru Roon. I logged directly into qobuz on my pc, opened it in Qobuz, favorited it, then I could see it in Roon. Enjoying it now. Nice list. Jerry | |
| A Very Blissful Christmas Playlist OK. So It's Christmas Morning. I'm sitting here at 0500 listening to Christmas Music. How do I import your playlist into my Qobuz? | |
| Anyone that is familiar with or owns Lumley Megavox 150s? I have questions. Learn to calculate your own bias numbers. It isn't hard. There is lots of bad advice on the internet when it comes to bias. (good advice too but until you can calculate it yourself, you don't know which is which). Jerry | |
| I have NOVA V's and I am not happy I think most good systems get bright as you listen very loud since the higher frequencies hurt your ears. Especially as your ears age. | |
| Why are so many people spending so much money to build “perfect” streaming system? Dude, do you even stream? | |
| EXPEREINCE WITH AYON @soix They have never been big in the US. Of course I'm the kind that tries to stay away from the crowd. You know then pieces that get recommended a dozen times every day, often by people who have never heard them but read the Stereophile list... |
