| Why the obsession with the lowest octave There is 40hz bass and then there is 40hz ATC active 100's bass. Real 40hz isn't all that bad.Elizabeth, LOL and then there was the woman on Jeopardy who was shown a picture of a bird and asked "What is a Booby?" Well if she doesn't know, then who... | |
| Solid state recorders The new Denon DN-F650R has better specs (closer to the Sound Devices) and uses the newer SD cars or USB, not the compact flash which I was told will be going obsolete.The big question, though is how does it SOUND? | |
| Help to store hi-rez on external hard drive. There are CDP like Yamaha CDR-HD1300 or Numark HDCD1 with an internal hard drive. Could just play direct from that to your DAC. | |
| White noise Funny this thread came up as I'm using pink noise just starting today to break in my new Seas drivers. There is a harsh breakup mode at 5kHz as shown by a steep dip in frequency response as seen on my Behringer DEQ2496 when I run pink noise throug... | |
| How a turntable is like a gym membership I'm too lazy for red book CD's where I had to change discs after only listening to 1-2 songs. So I got a CD burner and record only my favorite songs. Being dual well, I can:1) Switch CD's and listen for over 2 hours without fiddling with the CDB.o... | |
| Why Don't More People Love Audio? Throwing money at high end audio (or most things for that matter) does not gaurantee anything. I've heard plenty of uber-expensive stereos that sound horrible.The rich, being that they are rich, aren't not buying because of a lack of money.How man... | |
| Epos ES14 vs. Neat Motive 2 Not in my room to my ears. Switching over from Epos M15 to single driver full range was "ear opening". YMMV. | |
| If upgrades were no longer possible would you be FIRST:Even if nothing new was available I still continue with upgrades as I discover the benefits of things which already exist which I did not know about.SECOND:Most "upgrades" are nothing more than just churning of existing products. This happen... | |
| Epos ES14 vs. Neat Motive 2 Poly cone does not blend with aluminum tweeter.Sounds like 2 different speakers put into 1 box. | |
| Supratek in business again.... Electrocompaniet is back in business now too :-)) | |
| Behringer DEQ2496 - wow Paul, is that true even with digital EQ?Well, I guess my system is resolving then. I tried it 2 ways. First flat EQ with the Behringer in and out of the system. Second using the EQ on my Denon UD-M31 and comparing to the Behringer.Interesting how ... | |
| Behringer DEQ2496 - wow Lewinskih01, I don't have a DAC so I am stuck with analog for now.My comments:"I am a little disappointed that, while the DEQ does not add colorations per se, it does add a slight haze to everything. Sound is slightly less clear, less crisp, and a... | |
| I know this is heresy, but... Eldartford, if I follow you it is better the way I have it - in analog mode between CDP and preamp? Using my CDB's digital output instead, the DEQ2496 DAC sounded horrible. My ear was hurting (like my B&W's) within 5 minutes. Guess I'll have t... | |
| Behringer DEQ2496 - wow I found the Behringer DAC to be thin, bright, sibilant. Brings out the worst in CD sound. | |
| I know this is heresy, but... Can someone tell me if the DEQ2496 connected between the CDP and preamp is worse than between pre and power amp?I am a little disappointed that, while the DEQ does not add colorations per se, it does add a slight haze to everything. Sound is sligh... |
