| Rel vs the world @bjesien , If you a) have a dedicated room for music b) comfortable working with flatpacks/woodworking (a.k.a going the DIY route) c) don't mind the towering size (a.k.a very low WifeApprovalFactor), i would recommend the GR Research open baffle d... | |
| Rel vs the world @smodtactical, the pair of Rythmik F12Gs replaced a pair of Rel S series 812s | |
| It is not you, the sound really is getting worse @spenav, i was responding to the diy kit he linked which was priced at 225. For a 150ish bucks more, one can get a finished speaker with all the kinks ironed out by Andrew. Enjoy! | |
| Rel vs the world After I discovered Rythmik and got two of these (with Danny’s drivers), my RELs got sold quickly...The REL hype train crashed hard! http://www.rythmikaudio.com/F12G.html I also have 2 of Danny’s DIY open baffle dipoles to help my maggies in a 2nd... | |
| It is not you, the sound really is getting worse @erik_squires , i could be wrong about this. But, i sense that when a native mixed DTS X or Dolby Atmos movie track is downmixed by a receiver to 7.1 or 5.1 because a user had fewer speakers, dialogue can lose intelligibility. Same goes for a nati... | |
| It is not you, the sound really is getting worse @erik_squires , I've had the best luck on center channels with concentric drivers (least disruptive!). I have the Elac Adante series by A.Jones for my hometheater and that center channel is awesome (though it is humongous and takes over your space... | |
| Need recommendations for better two-channel audio out of my Marantz SR-6005 and my B&W 683 @georgepv , yes, the Rythmiks have way more DOFs (full 0 to 180 variable phase control, PEQ, etc) to help integrate a sub better than many other subs out there for 2 channel systems. Sealed/servo-controlled is the way to keep it precise and clean ... | |
| Danny Richie "fixes" the Linkwitz Arion loudspeaker Danny is a genius and a God-send to this industry. He exposes the lack of engineering aptitude displayed in many speakers out there and offers a solution to the gullible masses who fall victim to marketing hype. | |
| What Center Channel are you using in your Home Theater? A 2nd center channel on the ceiling and the primary center channel on the floor seems very absurd! Stop complicating things, lose the 2nd center for a minute and get a good stand for the main center channel sitting on the floor. There are good sta... | |
| Need recommendations for better two-channel audio out of my Marantz SR-6005 and my B&W 683 #1 First things first,Get rid of the lousy Klipsch sub and get two Rythmik sealed servo-controlled L12 subs The price is 1060 usd shipped (530 each). This alone is a great future proofed upgrade for music. No matter where your upgrade journey take... | |
| Streamer ugrade options please Your requirement list is long and things are looking bleak for the blu-ray market. The upcoming playstation 5 release from Sony is projected to pretty much kill the rest of the contenders in the Blu-Ray market.Oppo would have met your needs, but, ... | |

| CD Player vs. music streaming There is no streaming crap that comes close to SACD or bluray audio in sound quality. Yes, i listen to both stereo and am also a strong proponent of multi channel/surround music. However, the DACs in cd/blu-ray players and streamers can very much ... | |
| blu-ray/cd/sacd player with EQ or tone controls? Any recommendations please? @erik_squires minidsp seems like the best option thus far...especially since every bluray player i read up on all last night is not as versatile as the yamaha?! All the other stuff is aimed at the videophiles and not the audiophile. GO YAMAHA, I, ... | |
| blu-ray/cd/sacd player with EQ or tone controls? Any recommendations please? @erik_squires , the yam has output stages balanced after the DAC. I run it with xlr to a true balanced preamp & power amp. I'd rather not deal with the Shiit Loki in the middle. Is there a blu-ray/sacd player that may have eq, tone controls e... |
