| Which subwoofer should I get? Get a Elac Varro DS1000....dual opposed 10 inch drivers of a very high quality (German engineering at its finest) that would go well with the woofers on your magico. The app has a very user friendly auto eq tool that should help you integrate it s... | |
| Which sounds better 2 way or 3 way speaker design General rule of thumb...Drivers handling approx 30 hz to 300 hz should always be NOT the same driver that handled 300 to 2000 hz. Having said that, a guy who put 2 dollar trash drivers in a 3 way and designed a trash crossover/ cabinet can make a... | |
| Am I crazy to upgrade? Funny how, since they’re cheap, everyone here just casually bashes Emotive XPA-3s but look up pro reviews and they are universally liked and loved for their value. Audiogon snobs. Not snobbery...Cheaper Schiit and Yamaha amps kick Emotiva butt... | |
| Am I crazy to upgrade? My room space is 30’ x 40’. In the process of divorce. :) I’m actually selling her SUV to pay for it all. :) She was never supportive of the hobby. Lol However, I have high pitched ceilings. So, having a fancy Atmos home theater is too much of a ... | |
| Am I crazy to upgrade? It would probably be a better idea to go with one of the different multichannel "packages" offered than mix/match on your own. https://tektondesign.com/products/hi-fi-home-theater/theater-packages/ | |
| Retirement integrated amp for a “fiscal conservative” I’m currently using a Primaluna Dialogue HP Premium integrated amp which I’ve enjoyed for many years. Here’s where the “fiscal conservative” part comes in; this amp has 8 power tubes. Even with Primaluna’s great low tube stress design concept, I’... | |
| A list of efficient speakers at ~$5K a pair. I apologize @aricaudio for some undeserved harsh words and criticism written above. Every member here is an artist and an expert in design and they have incredibly high standards. @grislybutter It’s really not that hard to make a speaker look... | |
| A list of efficient speakers at ~$5K a pair. As much as I admire Aric’s electronics, his speakers are butt ugly. I’m more about sound than aesthetics, but even I have my limits and I couldn’t look at those things in my listening room. @soix +1, looks like the guy needs to take a art/desi... | |
| ??? What Is The MOST Expensive System You Ever Heard ??? What Was Your Opinion ??? Some 4 million dollar Chinese horn based system that sounded like ass... | |
| How cheap can you go and still be happy with the sound? I hope I never get to a place in this hobby where I can't enjoy a system because I know that a different group of components might sound better. That would be just as bad as not being able to enjoy a good meal at a cheap restaurant because I migh... | |
| I found audio nirvana.... @livinon2wheels Key word here is "NEARFIELD", even cheap gear can sound a lot better in nearfield by beginning to get the room out of the way. Many confused souls will spend 20k on a power cable, but $0.00 on a room or $500 for a couple of decora... | |
| Tekton Polycell15 @kdude66 , @sbayne @viablex1 Hey... who all heard or owns this ’polycell 15’ maybe? If you do, would you be able to make a comparison to the sound of the double impact? (which is really my only point of reference for the tekton sound). thanks.... | |

| Can you recommend Jazz for some one that doesn't like Jazz? I rarely find something I like. To me it sounds too disjointed, like everyone is trying to out do the others and they are all playing a different song. @fthompson251 When someone is not the greatest composer (just doesn't have it in his head, ... | |
| Ansuz Darkz resonance control footers It is just an OPPO, didn’t need 5100 dollar footers....Further, nothing about this footer is even remotely worth 5100. $500 would be pushing it. (facepalm) Try aliexpress, you will get the same "improvements" for about 1/100th of the cost. Anyo... |
