| Sound and Music Try installing the Daniel Hertz Master Class player/software (small change in the world of audiophilia) and convert some cd rips . It is not snake oil. It has made a lot of albums more enjoyable for me, get more immersed into the music. The follow... | |
| Furman Upgrade to Niagra Over Covid I was out of work and sold all my gear (and my house) just to survive, in that old set up I had a Furman PF Elite that I let go for pennies on the dollar. Wish I had it (and my old system) back again... ECON 101 - Have up to 12 mort... | |
| Experience with adding super tweeter? Goofy idea....unless you get into active crossover implementation or mod the existing passive crossover. (It is nothing like blending in a subwoofer without bass management and getting away with it). | |
| How does bi-wiring work? Biwiring works and you can hear subtle differences in a high resolution room. All my speakers are biwired. | |
| Finally...subwoofer that's aesthetically pleasing! The lil KEF KC62 microsubs (white or grey) look nice with modern home decor. One could purchase a couple of Ryhtmik drivers and diy a open baffle sub with a very a nice artistic design. hardwood and stain. In general, if many subs were not just ... | |
| 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). |
