| reliable DDC On a good dac or streamer dac combo, the equivalent of ddc function should already be built in. It should happen right before the conversion with negligible signal travel, etc. You could screw it up when you have a separate ddc box to do such thi... | |
| Building a second, vinyl focused system. Speaker advice needed! (<$10k) Tekton Perfect Set, designed for SET and other tubes...should check all your boxes, i suppose. There is also a version with a 15 inch driver. If you want to get all fancy with it and get your 10k's worth, ask for a custom with all Beryllium driver... | |
| Speakers for leading edge, transients, speed and big sound I have heard the Meyer bluehorn. It's a bit of a shame that most audiophiles will never hear some of these pro audio gems...because, I suppose, it didn’t have the gloss finish for the cabinets, in spite of all the engineering that goes into it. I... | |

Your room seems big enough to fit 2 pairs & the following should fit in your budget.. Speaker#1 JBL K2 S... | |
| How many times can u visit a hifi store before it annoys the store if u plan on a purchase Why do you need to wait 3 months to buy it? if you know you want it? Do you plan to go in there several more times to look at it in the next months, see if it helps make up your mind? It’s not that big a deal, just a preamp and a pair of monos ... | |
| Anyone heard the new Mofi V10 Master Edition at Axpona? Don’t feed this troll. He’s bringing up another speaker from an entirely different manufacturer on this thread for what reason again? no clue....am starting to wonder what the hell it is that he personally "worships"....what miracle box it is or ... | |
| Anyone heard the new Mofi V10 Master Edition at Axpona? @dayglow what speakers do you have? What's your setup like? Are you too shy to tell anyone about it? Don't worry and tell us about this high pedestal of yours, i'll be nice. I won't laugh all the way to China town, I promise. @kofibaffour Thx... | |
| Anyone heard the new Mofi V10 Master Edition at Axpona? It is not about just checking off some speaker design line items. This may be the first instance of an engineer of his caliber getting connected in the chain to the mastering apparatus (artist intent, etc), for example, have a better assessment on... | |
| Anyone heard the new Mofi V10 Master Edition at Axpona? Well, when the guy released a speaker some years ago, it was winning EISA awards over other speakers that were priced at magnitudes more. Hence, when he releases speakers, guys like me might pay a lil attention. Sorry to hear if you feel like som... | |
| Experience with Downfiring Subwoofer The best configuration you can get for a sub could be a dual opposed side firing driver configuration (ie two opposed drivers in the same box)., in consideration of how subs couple into a room...and what all happens thereafter. | |
| Big problem / bottleneck in my chain Treating a room to improve resolution is a rather intricate task and not cheap (for treatment that actually works). A couple of diffusers and absorbers (so many different ways they can be designed) made by whomever that’s put up in a decorative fa... | |
| Big problem / bottleneck in my chain Bottleneck ---> room (most probably), ears This afternoon, I did some experiments: plug the 260d as a cd player straight to the preamp using its internal dac plug the 260d as a transport to the TT2 (not using the mscaler) using the shuny... | |
| Best Holographic Speakers ~$7k per pair Depends...if you get something like a Andrew Jones Mofi 888 for 5k, you may get some drivers that are superior to off-shelf anything...and you won’t be able to make them for $50 or $100 if you have to do the r&d from scratch. Keep in mind t... | |

| Best Holographic Speakers ~$7k per pair Sonic holography is a trait of object based/multichannel audio (Sony's 360 reality, auro 3d, dts x, atmos, some of Yamaha's stuff, etc). Channel based purist stereo (or even legacy channel based multichannel) doesn't fall in that category. You mi... |
