The "most foolish" loudspeaker tweak/upgrade ... is @fliz That being true, is it regulated by price? All things being equal (materials, configuration, etc) at what price point do you reach diminishing return? Does this mean the more expensive the produce, the better? (Caveat: these questions overlo... | |
Bob Burwen imparts his knowledge I'm not sure to congratulate you or express my condolences. This hobby is quite the adventure!! :-)IMO you have to be open to perspective from those who've proven themselves technically or can back up their opinions with provable fact, not more op... | |
Surround Processor / Pre Amp / 3D Sound Field @audioman2015 I would submit that if the Sony or Yamaha DD decoder of old is what you're seeking, it may be best to search for the vintage stand alone processor. You're right, AVRs today don't produce like the DDP.I'm biased to Meridian. The 568 i... | |

Looking for a used AUDIOPHILE AV Receiver Check out Cambridge Audio for your AVR. You may even find it suitable for 2-channel. You never know. | |
Bob Burwen imparts his knowledge @cleeds Well, its actually Dick, but I can't bring myself to calling another man that name, unless he deserves it. I would venture to say he's done just fine proving it outside of court...in the actual industry. But yes, to each their own. | |
The "most foolish" loudspeaker tweak/upgrade ... is @geoffkait They forget the password to the account with all their other posts. Besides, somebody has to provide relevant experience...besides "getting your numbers up". Plus its an easy, enjoyable way to pass time. All the subjectivity and blatant... | |

Surround Processor / Pre Amp / 3D Sound Field @savdllc Isn’t the intended purpose of Audyssey’s very flat frequency response to tame the room’s frequency response so it’s also very flat? Is the room really being corrected or is the signal being modified so the in room response reads flat? Wha... | |
The "most foolish" loudspeaker tweak/upgrade ... is So, these cables are worth the $39k price tag...and can out perform cables below this price point...because of the number of twists?? | |
ATC ACTIVE VS PASSIVE Two words: Go Active! | |
Improving 2- Channel Soundstage @erikt That seems to be the trade off when dealing with today's HT equipment. I’m a firm believer that only a few companies have gotten their sound modes correct. Everything else is exactly how you described it, funny sounding. | |
The "most foolish" loudspeaker tweak/upgrade ... is http://burwenbobcat.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/SOUND-IMPROVEMENT-REAL-IMAGINED-OR-FRAUD.mp3 This is very fitting. | |
The "most foolish" loudspeaker tweak/upgrade ... is @ptss Haven't you learned??? Gon'rs don't like being told their $39k wires are foolish!!! If they didn't listen to common reasoning....their audiophile experiences...hell, technical facts....they why would they listen to you??? The arbitrary subje... | |
Improving 2- Channel Soundstage Dealing with the acoustics is the best solution as @auxinput and others have mentioned. When you begin mixing 2-channel and HT concepts, it quickly feeds the notion that HT can't accurately playback stereo information...which is true when you don'... |
