| Using digital 75/50 ohm cables for analog Thank you both for the information. If I should be at 100mOhm or lower, it sounds like the 75Ohm cable is not idea though maybe not necessarily audible unless it's putting "strain" on the device it's connected to? | |
| 14 ohm 7” midrange driver As I recall, I was not able to source replacement drivers and I reached out to a number of places. | |
| 14 ohm 7” midrange driver I was fortunate to find a guy who could repair mine. He did great work and there is no inconsistency between the left & right speaker. The speakers are still working today , quality work. Outlier Audio, 773-844-1983 | |
| Adding streaming services to a streamer via usb I appreciate the additional insight into your individual experiences. I'm going to grab a long lightning usb cable w/camera adapter and hard wire it to the Sonica usb port while I digest some of these ideas. My family uses the system as well ... | |
| Adding streaming services to a streamer via usb Looks like I'm going to try the hardwired route and see what happens. I might throw Volumio on a usb drive and see what happens but it appears Volumio might actually need to be tied to a cpu. I thought I read somewhere a while back about a thi... | |
| New streamer I just tried a few streamers because my setup changed due to one of my kids taking part of my system to college. A lumin U1 mini w/sbooster into a Ps Audio strata as preamp feeding meridian g57 amp & ProAc 3.8’s sounded amazing- detail, ton... | |
| Thinking of upgrading speakers from ProAc 3.8 I have enjoyed in my system for 23 years. The PS Audio speakers are getting excellent reviews and I believe they have a 30 day in home trial period. They use a high-quality ribbon type tweeter as well. They also recently had a sale on them that may/may not still be going on. | |
| Thinking of upgrading speakers from ProAc 3.8 I have enjoyed in my system for 23 years. I have a pair of 3.8’s that I like a lot. I have heard the TAD ME1’s several times at Axpona and have thought they would be a worthy upgrade with a nice sub. | |
| Best set-up under $20K I did forget to mention in my post that system 2 is a Ps Audio Strata. It's pretty amazing for the cost, especially today, and I also hear the difference between cables with it. Nice bass slam with it as well. It does miss a little bit of stag... | |
| Best set-up under $20K B&W Speakers are interesting for me. The first one's I really heard a difference on were the 805 Diamond's from the early 2000's. Since then I liked other sonic profiles better and have been able to hear more differences in electronics with ... | |
| 2nd system for office, all-in-one integrated suggestions I've had a PS Audio Strata for a few years now and I keep going back to it. My other system has a tubed front end and vinnie rossi amp. The Vinnie system has a little more bloom and body but I've also spent more time, money and tinkering to dia... | |
| Soliloquy replacement parts I was in the same situation with a ProAc driver. It took a little digging and referrals but I found an electronics repair shop that rebuilt mine. reasonable price, great work and had it back in 5 days. Your HiFi shops should know a repair sh... | |
| 14 ohm 7” midrange driver The driver has a 14 obm label on it and ProAc said they don’t have any anymore. Does anyone have creative ideas that will allow me to not recycle these speakers? I briefly considered an in line circuit to bump up the impedance but causes issues ... | |
| Red Wine Audio - 30.2 LFP-V Thanks for the replies and insight. I did communicate with Vinnie and he is out of stock. I am looking into another way to accomplish the battery mode, while the powered mode IS working with the unit. If I have some success I will share with th... | |
| Admitting my error… There r so many variables that are not understood in any of our replies and “insights”. Thats is why some can enjoy a single media on $1k of system value and others can not with a $300k system value. The $1k person can truly be crazy happy as ca... |
