| preamplifier after preamplifier? Using my Marchand crossover and passive subs, I set the gain on the crossover @ 10am and the mains at 3pm. Quite a difference. And I have very efficient speakers. May not help here but it is possible to use high efficiency speakers. | |
| Do I really need an " Audio Grade Network Switch "? I am under the impression these switches also reduce RFI/EMI. Some folks use 2 switches and a Network Acoustics Eno. I also found the Silent Angel is the same as the English Electric 8 and a couple other brands. Many of the LPSU are over 500 as we... | |
| Why spend more than $25 per piece of equipment on vibration reduction? I had some hemisphere shaped black rubber. Not sure if they wre brand name. They were on my subs for some time. When I heard about the springs, i replaced the rubber ones. Immediately, the bass was detailed, deeper, enveloping. I believe the rubbe... | |
| Is Rap a valid musical form? @jonwatches1 @krimsonhead I listened to those songs and enjoyed them. Little tough to listen to lady singer. The band and rap were integrated well. PS KC fan here. Post metal with detail. Back in the day it was fun to follow all the intro... | |
| Is Rap a valid musical form? There are many styles, like poetry. Not as simple as you think, actually very complicated. Many of the songs are real and personal, about growing up, drugs, relationships, loss. For someone to dismiss this is sending a bad signal. Especially w... | |
| Is Rap a valid musical form? This retired person had the stereo that played good bass. The rest is history. I have heard lots of it. I tried. I do like Tupac, BIG, and others. Not a fan of the synthetic bass, a cymbal and a vocalist. So I like the ones that are more mus... | |
| Tandberg 3012 Integrated w/ Innersound ISIS ESLs I had two Tandbergs, older models TR2080 and 2025. Sound was great but I never pushed them. They were pretty heavy and I was told workmanship was excellent. Parts got hard to get. Soundsmith quoted 1300 WCS to repair. And it was not blown up. | |
| Sound To me, no equalizer will fix problems with songs or your system. I feel I have my room pretty well treated and don’t hear dips or loud frequencies( cancel or add) I have tried to keep the sound as neutral as possible, then I feel I can tell if som... | |
| Sound I went to college. We slept all night using a turntable that kept playing. Abraxas or DSOTM. Heard all the Yamahas and Advents. Good sound? Sure. And we had the best ,music, mid 70's rock. Kept the bug. Very nice store here in town. Bought... | |
| Heat in class A equipment I know everybody stacks their Schiit. The Aegir was warm to the touch, guessing 120F. Stacking traps heat. I would not do it. | |

| Why I'm not adding a sub to my 2-way monitors for music I went with what my friend brought over to my house 20 yrs ago. I put 2-10" subs in between my mains. The Marchand crossover boards say 1985 on them. I sent into Phil(very nice person) a couple years ago and it was fine but he put some nicer opamp... | |
| 2022 Audio System Wish List and thoughts about streaming @jerrybj Thanks for the info. Looks like a nice Lpu. But I didn't see a switch. Found out one thing. You can just keep adding. Pretty soon it adds up to real money. | |
| Upscale Audio and Primaluna Sounds like OP was doing the same thing that he accused Kevin of. I've been told the most outrageous things over the years, and it doesn't have to be audio. Sure, you can tell me why I should buy your stuff and compare my equipment to yours but ... |
