| So, I listened to a $1Million Dollar System I like old sayings. Here's one. "Money they don't know what to do with" When I heard Sasha DAW. Kinda the same, distant and dull. | |
| Nobosound Springs I use springs under the Crites. If I recall the weight limit for four springs is 120 lbs. A rule of thumb is the spring should be half compressed, measured between top and bottom disk. Is the definition of isolation pucks, pods, bars or platfor... | |
| Best way to keep REL sub from “hopping around” at high volumes I like the sound of springs over sorbothane. I think Herbie's is platinum infused rubber. Many choices once you get this solved you will love the bass. | |
| Am I Getting Soft Here? HaHa! See how long it lasted. I have a proper rack coming. The other one just sat on the floor so this should help. It is a Pangea Vulcan they were on sale for $169. I have a bunch of Herbie's stuff to put under components. Is it advised to ... | |
| Am I Getting Soft Here? So many people sound like my experience. Sold everything raised my kids. Retired, started over. I'm not rich. I don't have audio stores, a society, or any audiophiles around. So I bought speakers and had some equipment. And I am such a wise ... | |
| DACs that do well without a preamp Most DAC put out 2V single ended or 4V balanced. Also check the volts required for full power on the amp. Some volume control bit strip "bit strip" as volume is reduced. There are several kinds of volume control, resistors based, light based, a... | |
| Snake oil of the year? Sure there are 1s and 0s. If somebody buys something and it works good for them. Aqvox must sell enough to stay in business, for example. But, good streaming requires proper streamer design, filtering for EMI/RF,, linear power supplies anythin... | |
| Pass labs upgrade path I have the pass XA25 running with a Khozmo passive. And upgraded resistors. I think my system has a neutral sound. I have horn speakers as well. I won't be buying anything else. Really good sound. | |
| Experienced only: What have you done with room correction? I started updating my system 3 years ago. After, i got all the components, one of the first things I bought was room panels. I have two bass traps sitting behind the system, 6 first reflection panels, and 3 diffusers . Room is 12 x 17x 8. Very ... | |
| New Sugden mono blocks have arrived. Those look like some "real" amps JK. . I have Pass so I am sure I would love the sound!! Congrats! | |
| Pass Then vs. Pass Now XA 25 is a very pleasant sound with good bass control. Xa30.8 is double the weight of the XA25! It’s very rare to hear someone say they they don’t like the sound. Tastes do vary. I think the first watt stuff will lack reserve power. If you don't... | |
| Dedicated room suggestions Hi, I have Crites speakers which are about the same dimensions and efficiency I have been tweeking my system for 3 years. Slowly and surely I have improved the sound. My room is 12 × 21. That is about the minimum width. Here are some suggesti... | |
| Luxman Knockoffs or Counterfeits? Pass XA series would be close to Luxman in sound and much more available. I've also seen Luxman on one of the high-end web sellers. Been awile tho. | |
| Streaming You can spread out the expense. Buy a bliesound. And a ethernet cord. Blue jeans cable will make any length and Cat 5-8. I trialed Q buzz against Amazon. It sounds just as good. $9 a month. You can trial as many as you want. Then, if you li... | |
| Bluesound node + INNUOS PHOENIX USB? The Bluesound with an upgraded power supply is very good. It is about $150 from Pd Creative and easy to install. Also an EMI/RF filter of some sort. I bought $50 ones and was amazed. Network Acoustics Eno also gets great reviews. Several vari... |
