| Subwoofer insight. @ghosthouse It sounds like you are using powered subs, but feeding them with a "speaker level signal from the amp" -- doesn't that cause overpowering of the sub? I would think it also halves the impedance of each channel, which can be a challenge... | |
| Has anyone heard a DNA-1 with the Gravity Base upgrade? Thanks @jaker — I went ahead with the mod, and I agree! | |
| Active line level crossover with subwoofer out - HELP @heaudio123 Thanks for the info.@erik_squires -- If I remember right, you are a proponent of standalone DACs (specifically Brooklyn), DIY swarms, and dedicated multichannel subwoofer amps, in addition to miniDSPs. Assuming that's so, do you put... | |
| Active line level crossover with subwoofer out - HELP My (limited) understanding of room nodes is that they are affected by the placement of the subwoofer (or subwoofers, as in a swarm). If that is true, can a single mini-DSP fix the room nodes regardless of subwoofer location? Or do you need one m... | |
| All the brands I don't like... @erik_squires - I knew you could clear it up for me!@mijostyn - This thread is NOT useless -- that was a GREAT Seinfeld clip! | |
| All the brands I don't like... @alaric62 Thanks for setting me straight -- that's what I get for reading threads too fast...I'd still like to know what Erik thinks about Mc vs Mac. | |
| All the brands I don't like... Why is this necessary? What am I missing? Who cares?I care — Erik has good opinions, as valid as anyone else’s, usually informative, often entertaining, and never abusive IMHO. Besides, I’d like to know if he meant to say Mc or Mac... | |
| Adjusting speaker positioning. What, if anything, to expect? For what it's worth, I prefer a sound stage that extends beyond the speakers; ie, to the left of the left speaker and to the right of the right speaker. I agree with the comments that say the singer should be anchored midway between the two speak... | |
| Your first system and your journey... Dual 1215 TT with Stanton 681EEE cart;Dynaco 120 power amp & PAT-5 pre (home-built, of course);ADC floor standing speakersGot me through college with decent sound, but I'd love to compare them to my current setup, and see how much has changed! | |
| Upgrade McCormack or... @mitch2 Glad you're enjoying your upgraded Ultra-G DNA-1 monoblocks -- at one point in this thread, you said you'd get back when you had a chance to compare them with your Clayton M300 monos; how did that turn out? | |
| Cataloging Question I would put it under “R” — but if I thought there was a likelihood of confusion, I would put an index card in the appropriate place with a cross reference to other locations. Yes, you could call me anal, but it works. | |
| Upgrade McCormack or... Thanks @soix! Patrick and I eventuality decided that the best package for my system and budget was: Gold Special upgrade, IXYS bridge rectifiers, Jupiter bypass complement (capacitors), Gravity Base Junior upgrade and Furutech Orange input fuse.... | |
| Upgrade McCormack or... Thanks to all for the recent responses to my August post. Following up, I decided to bite the bullet in October, and sent my amp in for an upgrade. Patrick was extremely sensitive to my cost issues, and only recommended special additions when he... | |
| Need under $1500 preamp for my system Have you considered the Parasound Halo P6 2.1 Channel Preamp & DAC? $1599 at Audio Advisor: https://www.audioadvisor.com/Preamplifiers/products/12/ | |
