| Bookshelf speaker recommendations I have been using my media player and luckily it has a 20 band EQ. The only frequency I need to cut is between 200hz and 300hz maybe up to 350hz. Streamers with that capability is a plus. There is so much I can position the speakers. Assuming... | |
| Bookshelf speaker recommendations I currently have the Paradigm Mini Monitor v3 and for the price are good sounding speakers but they are way too midbass heavy like boxy sounding. A few options I was looking was the Dynaudio Audience 42 or 52 or even the Contour 1.1. Assuming y... | |
| Building Resonance Free Subwoofers The title is just a tad misleading. There is no such structure that’s "Resonance Free". If a structure has mass and stiffness associated with it, there are resonant frequencies. You may have pushed it out of the sub’s operational range or not (tes... | |
| Suggestions on improvement Your gear is quite nice. Another thumbs up for that great gizmo known as the Schiit Loki EQ. Other than that, maybe use a Marijuana edible ( a very small amount and if it is legal in your state) to help calm your mind and enhance the music listeni... | |
| Monos, Stereo or Multi-Ch for HT and Music Stay with the Lyngdorf. It's feature set will save you in execution for music as well. If you care more about sonics, get 5 Schiit Tyr monoblocks for L/C/R and Surrounds... or 3 monoblocks for L/C/R and a Schiit Vidar 2 Class A for the Surrounds.... | |
| dCS Bartok Apex vs McIntosh DA2 - Trouble Hearing the Difference @verdantaudio - Good suggestion, but the Bartok is actually serving as both streamer (through Tidal Direct) as well as DAC. So it’s really Wiim & DA2 vs Bartok. Well, you could pack up the Bartok, ship it back to Bartok's maker within the... | |
| Best speaker brands for transient response @deep_333 @phusis -- I am curious, what is it about JBL that makes you not a fan? Imo, home audio could learn a lot from a certain category of the pro audio space...like Levinson/Daniel Hertz tried to do more recently. For example, Meyer Sound ... | |
| Speakers on top of subwoofer Definitive pioneered combining loudspeakers and subs in the same cabinet for decades and Golden Ear is doing this as well. I haven’t seen any complaints about them. The optimal location for a subwoofer (low bass transducer) is usually never at ... | |
| so bass traps in corners do nothing, it seems we have been fooled. or are being fooled. Guys, I feel it would be remiss of me not to warn you about Dennis Fooley. Apart from him frequently offering dubious information he has spent time in prison. Best to steer clear. Wow, aren’t you something special? So, a guy who spent some time... | |
| so bass traps in corners do nothing, it seems we have been fooled. or are being fooled. Dennis means well. Whether or not you agree with him, he’s working hard to bring better sound to this hobby that we all care so much about. I diy’d all diffusion panels (the formula, home depot lumber, saw, glue, nails, stain, no other magic re... | |
| so bass traps in corners do nothing, it seems we have been fooled. or are being fooled. Last I heard, you all occupy a single listening position.. you are not some omnipresent being who float around in space.. listening from every inch of the room. Standing waves occur between 2 parallel walls. Hence, look at the wall spots straight... | |
| so bass traps in corners do nothing, it seems we have been fooled. or are being fooled. I want to shave his head. Don't be so rude to silver haired foxes... I am sorry if mother nature robbed you too soon and left you with nothing but a low WAF bare dome. (Pretty birds never nest in bare tree...I mean dome.) | |
| Fleetwood Sound Deville amp recommendations? Also, suggest you investigate the Kirmuss Adrenaline speaker cable. Something about these cables that really make my Deville's sing. What was the special sauce in Kirmuss that transformed the Devill from bathroom singer to Grammy winner? | |
| Pioneer Elite vsx-14 enough for hdi-3800? Alternatives? @deep_333 This is interesting. I assumed as cabinet size goes up bass extension goes lower and more impactful. Curious if that means sensitivity has to be lower to get more bass? Or are you saying smaller cabinet size is what you can't have. If... | |
| Is D for Dry? Class D... @deep_333 No I will pass on the Schiit stuff, found your post to be hypocritical. Panasonic, is not on my radar. Prefer products from the EU. Sure, drop the 70k on Aavik, it sounds amazing/brilliant and has some European innovation on display..... |
