| Yamaha NS 5000 w/ NAD M33 Echoing some of what @waytoomuchstuff mentioned about dynamic contrast, dropping the room’s noise floor as much as possible is the first step to improving perceived dynamics, i.e., takimg care of that noisy hvac, buzzing things, rattling walls et... | |
| Upmixing 2 channel I upmix all my music in my multichannel room from stereo for music listening ( with Dolby’s DSU, Auromatic, 360 reality, etc). To optimally facilitate this for the codecs, you need to create a very seamless blended soundfield where no speaker can... | |
| Yamaha NS 5000 w/ NAD M33 @yyzsantabarbara I’ve had the NS5000 for a short while now. I got an offer I couldn’t refuse on my Schweikert from a guy who audited it earlier this year and sold it (i.e., my empty wallet became fulleth again). I was leaning a bit towards a Bor... | |
| What am I looking for in a Processor Try Yamaha RX-A4A (all channel preouts) (You are confusing the terms AV receiver and AV preamp processor). All channel preouts in a AV receiver will only exist on more expensive models within the same brand. The preamp processor (no built in pow... | |
| Yamaha NS 5000 w/ NAD M33 The NAD is class D (bad nad). The class d emperor never had clothes with certain types of speakers. Return it and get a pair of Schiit Tyr monoblocks ($3200) + a Kara preamp for the under 5k price bracket to do that speaker justice. It will let y... | |
| Moving into an apartment with wood joist floors - worried about neighbors hearing There is some solid advise given, and some a bit drastic or too much too soon. I had a loft studio space in an old textile building in MA years ago, so I have some experience. Keep your speakers, do all the normal furnishings you are thinking: ru... | |
| Are there other people like me ? Amazed by their low cost system :) For sure you are right in my book... 😊 Discarding all audiophiles with blind test is as silly as approving all of them ... We must learn how to hear and how to listen all our life...Especially if we are not acousticians or maestros or skilled mu... | |
| Are there other people like me ? Amazed by their low cost system :) The main reason I go to audio shows is so I can have a reference to compare my system to. You get to listen to expensive and professionally tuned systems and determine where your system stands. If you don’t listen to other systems how could you p... | |
| Rockport Lyras deep_333, I heard from a friend of mine that he gets a lot of the stuff for free on consignment to showcase it from dealers so when he says that he’s paying for all of it I highly doubt he is and my friend confirm that, he told me that he strong... | |
| Differences in YouTube, Spotify, etc. Qobuz is a reliable #1. There is something to be said about youtube music, especially if one has a premium account. Not sure if it is bring served lossless at times, but, some albums sound quite good. It also tends to have rare stuff that can’t b... | |
| Moving into an apartment with wood joist floors - worried about neighbors hearing Your priorities in life are off. First, put a downpayment on a house where no one can bother you for spl levels dude. All the Eggleston Kiva, Diva, etc crap could wait. | |
| Revel Salon2s: Seeking Advice Different opinions/experiences exist... Revel speakers are a bit dry, analytical, etc, but measure great, I e, designed by guys who understand engineering, but, don't have a good ear for music (unfortunately). If you told the Revel engineer, "Du... | |
| How important is the efficiency of a speaker to you? Herman = +150 Toddalin = -165 | |
| Speakers Viagra/Infrastructure boost for existing Dynaudio: Made in the USofA Schiit Tyr monoblocks times 2 = $3200 Schiit Kara preamp = $700 Rythmik L12 Sealed subwoofer times 2 = $1250 Total = $5150 | |
| Anybody here listened to Daniel Hertz Speakers? What did you think? The M1 system sounds spectacular. Most "systems" i have heard in that price bracket and above sound fake. The M1 should have a certain kind of appeal for musicians with deeper pockets, imo.. Is it priced too high? To me, it is, but so is every Wi... |
