| Tax Returns: Nothing, a new DAC or... ? A lot of good info here. Since tge original question is about tax returns and credit cards, I will point out that if you usually have CC bills and usually get back $5000 for a return, then you should really change your withholding amount to actual... | |
| Static electricity affecting sound reproduction. Please help!! Do you have forced air heat in your house? That is a big factor in producing the static electricity. Also, the more air infiltration the house has that allows the cold dry air to cone in, the more you will need that humidifier. Apart from sealin... | |
| Static electricity affecting sound reproduction. Please help!! I agree, your humidity levels are too low. Get a whole house humidifier. A few percentage points higher will do wonders for your comfort levels. You will certainly feel a difference. | |
| Cary Audio DMS600 or 700 vs Bluesound Node 2 Thank you. I'm going to assume the MM Ultra is suggested because my bottleneck is the dac in my Anthem str? That's a $600 to 10x difference in price. I like to buy something once and pay once instead of upgrading in increments. I may have to... | |
| Speakers for a Large Room (20’x37’) My space is open and very similar to yours. At the widest it's 17 feet but mostly 14 ft x 40 ft long with the kitchen on the other end and furniture 12-15 ft away from the speakers. I listen mostly from the furniture, so my expectations may be di... | |
| Cost to keep equipment running / on The Watt Meter Fuzztone posted above will get you exactly how much you're using with anything you plug into it. $15 and it's a great tool you can use all around your house for anything you can think of. | |
| Hang / move large tv by myself? Is there a tool? Ironing board if it fits the height. | |
| And My Budget Is... I agree with getting what you like off the bat instead of incremental increases in price and quality. If the op had purchased that $1500 CD player, then sold it for 1000 to buy a 2200 cd player, then sold that for 1800 or who knows 1000 dollars,... | |
| HTB preamp and AVR turning on the same amp. Thank you imhififan.You've confirmed my fear that the cable has to be modified. I guess I can do it, but I'm still amazed how there's no plug and play solution for this. I may just opt for both AVR and pre to turn on together instead of customizin... | |
| HTB preamp and AVR turning on the same amp. Thanks Fiesta. I do have a power conditioner that I don't want to replace to keep it 'audiophile friendly'. All the components seem to have 12 voltage triggers in and our. I'm sure others do this, I just haven't come across it yet. I did email Ant... | |
| Lay Off the Newbies! I used to be a regular on a Bodybuilding forum. When newbies come to ask the most basic questions and ask if their kitchen table or bar stool, crate, is good enough to do bench press with their 30 pound dumbells, I would always steer them in a pos... | |
| any suggestions on what to replace Bluesound Node 2i with +2 for big_greg's and other's suggestion re a preamp with ht bypass. This is also what I'm looking at after steering away from the Lumin T2s... dedicated option. Something like the Anthem str preamp has the ht bypass and a relative good dac and mo... | |
| any suggestions on what to replace Bluesound Node 2i with OP, I have a Node 2 and a similar receiver, the Anthem 720 playing 5.1 for HT. I also use the receiver's dac only because I was forced to do so as I didn't want to use the Node's dac and have the Anthem still convert through it's circuitry when us... | |
| Isoacoustics overweight Without knowing too much about the gaias, it seems like they work like a shock absorber or even springs on a car in terms of downward pressure the weight places on them. So, imagine you have a small set of springs and put a medium to large dump tr... | |
| House renovation: Help with 3.1(.2) vs 5.1(.2) vs soundbar Upon closer inspection of the pics, those rear surrounds will be difficult to place. If you can get cables to where you need them before construction is complete, I suggest doing it. Nothing else in terms of speaker wire for now. The soundbar does... |
