| Does Anyone Use Pro Audio Speakers as their Main? I have been venturing into pro audio for the past few months...currently in the process of getting active crossovers dialed in on some big Yamaha horn installation speakers. Coincedentally or not, most audiophile speakers I’ve owned (jbl, tad, et... | |
| Sony HT A9 for music When I do, I’m impressed with the quality of the audio for music. I concur with a reviewer who when asked if the HT A9 was good for music replied it’s damn good. Sony can be proud. I recently tricked a dude who came over for an audit into think... | |
| Assistance in selecting new speakers… As far as multichannel amps go, some good speakers are going to eat up most of your 15k to 20k budget and you may be hitting the budget limit. Hence, you could go with the meaty monolith amps (manufacturer direct), especially since this series wa... | |
| Assistance in selecting new speakers… I would like to see the list. I’ll admit, I’ve been a “KEF” guy, and I need to explore other options. In this context, architectural is Built in wall and/or ceiling speakers. @johnmcnaughton . "Architectural" speakers get compromised because th... | |
| Value of a preamp? The ’preamp’ is essentially a cash grabbing strategy by certain manufacturers who went to the umpteenth level to do a ground-up design/fine tune a preamp to a specific power amp. For example, Luxman... they designed a wallet abusing preamp (c900u)... | |
| Accuphase E-5000 factory power cord good enough? Write to Accuphase Japan and ask if a different power cord will make the sound better (lift more veils, add more organic serums, etc) than the cord they gave you. Ask them what cord you should specifically buy. Since they designed and built your a... | |
| Luxman leaves me wanting The "lack of fullness" in the midrange is not the Luxman’s fault...it’s that useless speaker known as the Devore ’Gibbon’ that you are running with. (Surprised some poor lil cable didn't get blamed for the scooped out midrange, 😂) | |
| Opinions about Daniel Hertz Judging by responses above, thread should be titled Levinson Witch hunt. For whatever its worth, the guy is smarter than most dudes peddling non-innovative, lazy rinse/rehash/repeat crap in the high end for decades. The latter type of creature mu... | |
| What next? I have restored a Marantz PM94 and have recently purchased a pair of Von Schweikert VR4.5 speakers, am using Apple Music through my iPhone. What would be recommended to improve the sounds? Also have a restored Sansui 9090DB with stacked Advent sp... | |
| How long does Class A have? The sweetness of class A will need to be pryed away from my cold dead hands. However, I've had solar panels for a while now and my Tesla gets charged by the sun! (to put Greta Thunberg's mind at ease). | |
| MBL 101 X-Treme MKII My favorite city...will try and make it to your shop when I'm down there at the end of march. | |
| Finally...subwoofer that's aesthetically pleasing! Sadly in the press release you could see the scan speak sticker on that midrange. Good brand but at ludicrous prices I expect them to be made of fairy dust. Ah, Stradivari's daddy tried to pull a fast one, dropping scanspeaks in a box, eh? We... | |
| Confused with size of speaker to get when placed along long wall in large room @djwong , I have a similar space in my basement without that ceiling height. Since you are already considering Perlisten, you could talk to a integrator like Matt Poes (Poes Acoustics) and see if you can set up a high WAF dual use stereo and theat... | |
| Magico A5 vs SF Amati vs Raidho D3 - Help me decide! Get a pair of subwoofers and figure out how to make it work in your room with your current speakers. That's one jump in SQ you couldn't miss. Otherwise, a jump at this level with a speaker won't feel like a whole lot, especially, if you're an old... | |
| DSP Active Crossover The minidsp SHD (2 way digital xover) uses an ESS 9028 DAC chip......pretty good. The Audiophile Junkie (see his Youtube channel) uses this Minidsp SHD in his super system. I posted this on a couple of other threads.....but I cannot stop talking ... |
