| 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).

| 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... | |
| adante I have had the Adante floorstanders for a year and a half now. I have them paired now with 2 of Danny Ritchie’s open baffle servo subs and some competent electronics. I was lucky to have a a good room to begin with (didn’t have to do any major rem... | |
| Should people who can't solder, build or test their speakers be considered audiophiles? Wow, the dude is tooting his horn a bit much because he can apparently solder, build a stoopid lil box and throw some drivers in it.Dude, i run a large test lab where we primarily build/test aerospace components. We do stuff everyday that can be w... | |
| Balanced vs RCA between amp/preamp Why don’t i just plug all my gear into a very good balanced isolation power conditioner (with excellent CMR) and make my life easier fellas? A wise man once said, " Spend in the right places"Though .....someone mentioned he gets aways with fewer g... | |
| Sub Not Waking Up most probable problem:a)You probably have the volume control knob on the sub way up. b) YPAO may have compensated when it does it's level matching with your speakers by turning the level way down for the sub. The signal the receiver sends now is i... | |
| Why do you guys pursue a flat frequency response when you buy a subwoofer? @ka1j What DAC are you using (DAC output going into the MEN220)?Have you done a sonic comparison from your DAC output to the MC275 on your 2 main speakers (without subs) to the inclusion of the MEN220 in the chain and listening on the mains only... | |
| Why do you guys pursue a flat frequency response when you buy a subwoofer? @tomic601 , here are some tracks i use when i'm tinkering with it and listening for things (non compressed FLAC versions of these, 24bit 96khz when possible). Overall SPL levels are relatively high (farmhouse/no neighbors).Hans Zimmer - Mombasahtt... | |
| Why do you guys pursue a flat frequency response when you buy a subwoofer? @audiokinesis , Many hardcore audiophiles i know stick with 2 channel music systems, a.k.a, their high end turntables, DACs, integrated amps/monoblocks, etc with no bass management. These guys try subs and abandon them because they can't get it... |
