Goofy, I know but I'm pretty happy right now Put 4 inch absorptive GIK panels on the ipsilateral and contralateral reflection points on both side walls.... | |
| Should I graduate to floor standers or will larger bookshelves suffice? Bookshelves+stands and floorstanders typically have the same footprint. When a dude's claiming he saved space, he did not ( it was just psychological for the dude). Unless you're stuck with nearfield listening distances (where drivers don't have r... | |
| rocket 88 Maybe cables matter, but y’all understand that bi-wiring does absolutely nothing, right? You’re still sending a full-range signal down both pairs, the crossovers still do their low-pass/high-pass roles. And at 10-12 ft the series resistance is st... | |

| Magnetar @mahler123 If you referring to the Panasonic blu-ray player, the new model is the UB9000P1k (MSRP = 1100 USD), which i have. It is unclear where you’re getting the 1500 price tag. It can also serve as a great sounding CD player/network streamer/D... | |
| Subwoofer power conditioner As a general rule, never plug anything worth a premium directly into the wall unless you have whole house surge protection installed, i.e., Get an electrician in and get a Siemens unit or similar installed. It is not just a safety net for audio eq... | |
| Low cost subwoofer upgrade Speaker cables make a difference, interconnects make a difference, etc, i fully agree. But... how fascinating this is!! your sub's playing 20 to 60hz (mas o menos)? depending on where your crossover's at....and yet you changed a subwoofer's powe... | |
| Getting 2 subs As long as both subs are sealed, you shouldn’t have any issues integrating them. Don’t mix a sealed and ported sub in your configuration. If you don’t want your neighbor to get thumped and just want overall clean immersion, a) For starters, u... | |
| budget diy tube preamp beating many expensive preamps... problem with my system? On the same note, get rid of the dumass amazon rca cables and get some Audioquest rca interconnects. | |
| budget diy tube preamp beating many expensive preamps... problem with my system? Dude, you have a NS5000.....Yamaha designed a beautiful preamp called the C5000 (an engineering masterpiece) to go with that NS5000. You should get that preamp and do the type of tube toking that pleases you with some tube dac instead. | |
| looking for an integrated amp in the $1500 range The Marantz PM8006 is a nice sounding piece in your budget. It also had an exceptionally good sounding built in phono stage for your budget (from what i remember), which may make you sell the Rega Booga phono piece you've got...one less pestilent... | |

| Did my preamp short kill my Mark Levinson amps and Infinity Beta servo ? @jerry_b2 , So.....who manufactured your preamp? After fiascos like these, all brand loyalties would be out the door, I'd think. | |
| Horns with good timbre and tonality? W.r.t real instruments, it is harder to get to the tonal/timbral accuracy level of some TAD, Yamaha, Voxativ, older Schweikerts, Gershman (hit n miss), etc with alternate waveguide/compression driver offerings, ime/imo. Unless a guy spent a couple... | |
| Best Buy Says Bye-Bye to DVDs Better get a hold of a high fidelity bluray player before they all get discontinued. Sony's Playstation 5 was the single biggest disruptor of the market for bluray player manufacturers. Bluray audio (when an artist chooses to also offer his album... |
