Right way to connect a 2nd “extension” center channel speaker?
For example, Yamaha’s Musiccast ecosystem was designed for whole house applications like yours in mind. A wireless musiccast speaker system can bring the music to another room without having to tinker with zones, cables and passives. I use the fo... 
At what price is one considered an Audiophile.
few if any will agree on what a deeper soundstage, lower noise floor, longer note decay or any other Audiophile nuances should cost. This is why any price/performance ratio standard IMO is nearly irrelevan Such an unintelligent falsity/ the com... 
Class D amplifiers. What's the future look like?
@deep_333  Thanks for the pics of the Technics innards. Have you hear their newer model G700 Mk 2? No, i have not...not interested in that one. It has great reviews though. I specifically needed the SU-R1000's 300W into 4 ohms (without space h...

@jacobsdad2000 Sorry and I don’t mean anthing bad about anbody and at this site I have never noticed (and not saying there isn’t) any obvious females talking about audio gear. But I do suspect behind every audiophile that is married or lives with... 
At what price is one considered an Audiophile.
@deep_333    If your current system is your final audio destination kudos. What is offensive is claiming anyone that has or desires an audio system of better build and sound quality cares less about music and more about gear? That might get the a... 
At what price is one considered an Audiophile.
For example, Elac Debut Reference Floorstanders from Andrew Jones - $1400 Rythmik L12 Subwoofer - $629 Yamaha A-S701 integrated amp - $800 Schiit Modi Multibit DAC - $300   Sum Total = 3129 USD ----> The fidelity and musicality of this se...

This is how the internals of 1930 computers looked. Compare that to the internals of today's desktops/laptops/servers/super computers That's it...I just got meself a brilliant business idea. My Class D-iddly amp company will, hereby, be known... 
Magnepans and dogs
There is some tribal hearsay out there that magneplanars induce more limbic brain activity than regular speakers. It could also be fake news. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats. When they are in the room I turn the spl levels wayyy down and swap to simpler... 
Significant steps? (DAC)
@facten @tvrgeek "Sorry if you have one, but $140K for a DAC is not perfection, it is pure bragging rights.". I don’t have one , don’t seek out listening to one because it isn’t in my realm of spending on one piece of audio equipment, don’t pre... 
Class D amplifiers. What's the future look like?
GAN miracle vs Technics, it just ain’t adding up on what you’re getting for the price! Funny enough, even that ~10k honestly priced engineering extravaganza Technics gets hammered by a whole lot of simpler Class A designs and no Class D-iddly unde...

ifi LAN iSilencer
Do you think this tweak would make a difference if I already have an optical network between my streamer and router? @zlone , Yes, I find the pluses to be cumulative. I run FMCs with a patch cable in between --> IFI LAN --> Streaming devi... 
Class D amplifiers. What's the future look like?
What? A tube manufacturer and dealer comes on to a thread about "What’s the FUTURE of class D".....and puts down ALL class d amps without even mentioning what he has heard and specific A/B tests. Then he tells us all the cool stuff he has and the... 
Anthem ARC - Well, it's not that great.
The end goal is to be sitting enveloped in a seamless dome of sound with no individual speaker even being remotely localizable. If one doesn’t have the room for it, he doesn’t and that's about it. There are many tools in object based audio prepros... 
Anthem ARC - Well, it's not that great.
@erik_squires , The primary goal of the processor’s auto-cal is to set the distances/levels for speakers, subs, deploy any RSC filters correctly as it sees fit, etc. You will need to make manual fine refinements to distances/levels further from th...
