| How to set up Velodyne dd15 SubDude is an Auralex product. They work very well with my pair of HGS-15s.db | |
| 17' unbalanced cable v balanced with ISOMAX Al & Clio,Right now the 17' balanced cables run from the Cary 11a to the Proceed Amp 3. When I tried a KUBE 200, I ran the balanced cables from the 11a to the ISOMAX, unbalanced from the ISOMAX to the KUBE, and unbalanced from the KUBE to the ... | |
| hooking up HT amp I think what he's asking is if it will harm his AVR if only one channel is used, leaving the others unloaded. I think that depends on the stability of the amp design. I once asked that question of Madrigal; the answer was that Proceed amps are sta... | |
| Two-channel is inferior to multi-channel, no? Audiofreak32,I assume you're trying to revive a dead horse, otherwise a mere restatement of one of the positions in this thread makes no sense. Unless you imagine you're the arbiter of all things true, and thus spake the truth . . .db | |
| why use towers if you've got a sub?? In many applications, Rrog's point, "Monitors speakers with a sub also give you the flexability of pulling the monitors into the room for a more spacious sound while not sacrificing bass performance," is perhaps the most cogent in a thread with lo... | |
| KEF 107.2 with KUBE? I reread Olsher's review of the 107 in Stereophile. I think I discounted that aspect of it because I suspect hyperbole. Is it logical that contemporaneously built speakers would have such variations, yet the factory could build a given speaker wit... | |
| KEF 107.2 with KUBE? J24,Recalibrating KUBEs when a driver is altered would be necessary only if KUBEs were calibrated for individual speakers, something neither of us thinks is likely.db | |
| KEF 107.2 with KUBE? I've read that the design of the KUBEs is specific to models of speakers. The installation instructions for the KEF 107.2 warns that a 107.2 KUBE should be used with 107.2 speakers, but does not mention that KUBEs are adjusted for individual speak... | |
| Subs/Monitors vs Full-Range Speakers - Pros/Cons Integration of monitors and subs seems well understood and solvable. I'm concerned that monitors may not have the dynamic range to represent large orchestrations well. In my experience good floor standers do big sound better than monitors, but my ... | |
| XLR to RCA to XLR Sorry, Almarg, I don't, and I don't have a multimeter.Tvad somewhat reluctantly sold his pair of ISOMAX transformers to me. Now I have to find a KUBE for the KEF 107.2s I'm buying.db | |
| New or Upgrading Pre - Pro Yeah, Audiojan,And you get the beauty of clutter with 7 cables instead of a single HDMI cable. db | |
| XLR to RCA to XLR Tvad's ISOMAX transformers arrived today. I tried them using the KEF Model 200 KUBE that had previously caused the sizzle. The result was flawless: Silence at the speaker, and, even though designed for use with a different speaker, the KUBE provid... | |
| XLR to RCA to XLR Mine was the winning bid on a Model 102 KUBE to use with vintage KEF 102 speakers I use for center channel. I've arranged with Tvad to try his Jenson ISOMAX transformers in the loop. I'll report back.db | |
| XLR to RCA to XLR Jedinite,As I understand it, and my understanding may be incorrect, the use of a KUBE with the 104.2s is optional -- it only extends LF. In some applications, e.g. 107.2, the KUBE also tailors audio above the usual sub crossover. Thus, if you use ... | |
| XLR to RCA to XLR Al,The KUBE has a 2-prong AC plug.I used a female XLR to male RCA adapter into the KUBE from the XLR line out of a Cary 11a and a male RCA to male XLR adapter to the line into a Proceed Amp 3.Turns out I was using a KUBE designed for the KEF 102.2... |
