| Sound Artist SC8b @b_limo , i have had a pair of these for a few months and they are very unique and fantastic sounding speakers. I really didn’t need anything and bought these out of sheer curiosity.They will do you good for electronic music. Throw some Shingo Nak... | |
| ~$15K floorstanders: opinions sought @wassaicwill, the JBL K2 S9900 is well above your budget (new or used) if you have a hardstop at 15k. But, if you can get your hands on a pair of their S4700s for under 15k, it should truly madly deeply rock your world. My younger sibling has th... | |
| Are systems genre dependent? mmhmm,,,and that is exactly why i have 3 different/different sounding systems (mix of speakers and electronics) at home. If you have an eclectic taste in music, there's no way around it.For the guys who like to listen to their "gear" with a limite... | |
| Rel vs the world @bjesien , Go with a manufacturer (no matter who it is) that offers more DOFs to tweak your system if your sub doesn’t just magically integrate. This is especially true if you have a high end 2 channel system and may not have all the additional fr... | |
| Sub Question. One higher quality sub or two lesser quality? (Rythmik vs HSU) Also consider the possibility that "upgraditis" could set in if you go with the 2 lower priced/lower performance subwoofers especially if the higher performance/priced sub was within your financial reach. In that case, it would be wiser to get a s... | |
| Rel vs the world @trentmemphis, Ah yes, the longstanding REL marketing magic of "seamless integration" like no other sub out there apparently! I guess the power of suggestion can work wonders too...Make some other guy who spent years with it look rude and silly (w... | |
| Rel vs the world @bjesien , If you a) have a dedicated room for music b) comfortable working with flatpacks/woodworking (a.k.a going the DIY route) c) don't mind the towering size (a.k.a very low WifeApprovalFactor), i would recommend the GR Research open baffle d... | |
| Rel vs the world @smodtactical, the pair of Rythmik F12Gs replaced a pair of Rel S series 812s | |
| It is not you, the sound really is getting worse @spenav, i was responding to the diy kit he linked which was priced at 225. For a 150ish bucks more, one can get a finished speaker with all the kinks ironed out by Andrew. Enjoy! | |
| Rel vs the world After I discovered Rythmik and got two of these (with Danny’s drivers), my RELs got sold quickly...The REL hype train crashed hard! http://www.rythmikaudio.com/F12G.html I also have 2 of Danny’s DIY open baffle dipoles to help my maggies in a 2nd... | |
| It is not you, the sound really is getting worse @erik_squires , i could be wrong about this. But, i sense that when a native mixed DTS X or Dolby Atmos movie track is downmixed by a receiver to 7.1 or 5.1 because a user had fewer speakers, dialogue can lose intelligibility. Same goes for a nati... | |
| It is not you, the sound really is getting worse @erik_squires , I've had the best luck on center channels with concentric drivers (least disruptive!). I have the Elac Adante series by A.Jones for my hometheater and that center channel is awesome (though it is humongous and takes over your space... | |
| Need recommendations for better two-channel audio out of my Marantz SR-6005 and my B&W 683 @georgepv , yes, the Rythmiks have way more DOFs (full 0 to 180 variable phase control, PEQ, etc) to help integrate a sub better than many other subs out there for 2 channel systems. Sealed/servo-controlled is the way to keep it precise and clean ... | |
| Danny Richie "fixes" the Linkwitz Arion loudspeaker Danny is a genius and a God-send to this industry. He exposes the lack of engineering aptitude displayed in many speakers out there and offers a solution to the gullible masses who fall victim to marketing hype. | |
| What Center Channel are you using in your Home Theater? A 2nd center channel on the ceiling and the primary center channel on the floor seems very absurd! Stop complicating things, lose the 2nd center for a minute and get a good stand for the main center channel sitting on the floor. There are good sta... |
