| Technical assistance and recommendations needed Can your Schitt equalizer help with the brightness? How about speaker grills on versus off? | |
| Advice on speaker replacement That's a good price for the older KEF R3, but will you also need new stands since that is an odd-sized stand-mount speaker? Would you consider the Q750 in that price range if you like the KEF family sound? I'm not sure what your long-range plans... | |
| Classé CP-45 remote Just a follow up - there are a few used Classe remotes on-line if you do a search, but some of the sites look a little sketchy. The Logitech Harmony website indicates that their universal remote supports the CP-45. However, I think this is a dis... | |
| Classé CP-45 remote I wish I could help. I owned a CP-45 for 20+ years and sold it last year. I was always worried about what to do if the remote failed. I searched around on the internet for replacement remotes (or codes) but gave up looking after a while. It is ... | |
| Best 1,000 complete system for girlfriend ideas And here we are 21 years later. Wonder if the OP still has the same GF...? I didn't notice the date of the original thread and was ready to post why no one is recommending any streaming or Bluetooth options. | |
| BlueOS Changes Coming? Currently, I use an optical cable from a BlueSound Vault to my external DAC, then analog cable into the receiver. I assume USB between Vault and DAC would produce some improvement but not sure I'd hear the difference. Hopefully its more than that... | |
| Best Speaker for a reflective room ? @peter_s I agree. With such a large room, try to arrange some furniture so that you have a smaller listening area where you sit closer to the speakers and have an open space behind your listening position. | |
| Micca 14 Gauge Pure Copper Speaker Wire I saw Huff's review, so I bought a 4-meter pair of Miccas just for yuks. I have an old pair of Transparent Plus BiCables in my main system, and Anticable 2.1 in a smaller system. I'd echo @mceljo with regard to how they sound; very musical and sm... | |
| How long does it take a decent quality speaker to "wear out"? I have the same question regarding my now almost 25-year-old Platinum Audio Solo speakers. For several years I've been thinking of replacing them with something new, but only because of their age. They still sound terrific. The speakers were de... | |
| DAC recommendations I wouldn't buy anything until you get your streaming service sorted out. I use Tidal and Qobuz, but also have Apple Music as part of my cell phone plan. No matter what I do, streaming Apple Music via AirPlay 2 just doesn't sound right to my ears... | |
| Music Servers/External Drives No matter what drive solution you pick, make sure you have adequate backups. You can get a NAS unit with multiple drives, but even with that you should have an external drive backup that is not connected to your computer or network, in case of a v... | |
| Pontus ii and Hi Res The Node should do the first unfold of MQA files. I have a Node 2i connected to an Ares II via coax and I'll see 24/96 when playing Tidal MQA files. Maybe try another cable? | |
| Do speaker cables really make a difference ? Thanks for all the responses. I am thinking about trying Anti Cables speaker wire. It's very thin wire and unless they made the reviews up themselves, they are highly thought of by different users. Any thoughts on Anti Cables ? I have a mo... | |
| New transport or repair CD player I sold my 508.24 earlier this year primarily because of its age and my fear that if it broke, it would be expensive to fix or impossible to fix due to the lack of parts. I spoke to my local Meridian dealer, and he advised against spending any mone... | |
