| I like my system flat, no tone controls, no eq..........what is your preference, and why. Nice story! Glad you made good on it! :) | |
| I like my system flat, no tone controls, no eq..........what is your preference, and why. Audiophilia is truly bifurcated, and that's a very good thing, as there is a path for the purist and the technologist. My review of the Legacy Audio Whisper DSW was a lesson in appreciation of both approaches. With the speaker I can run either ou... | |

| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker Just noticed this on the Benchmark website: THE AHB2 IS SOLD OUT. ORDERS PLACED TODAY WILL SHIP ON OR ABOUT DECEMBER 7TH. | |
| I like my system flat, no tone controls, no eq..........what is your preference, and why. Let's kindly, for the sake of this particular thread, hold to the definition of "flat" as the OP intended. We are not speaking of flat frequency response, but a straightforward, less processed system, without digital EQ, etc. As with so many thing... | |
| I like my system flat, no tone controls, no eq..........what is your preference, and why. I have been in the game long enough to know what you mean regarding EQ, etc. But, here's the thing; it's all coming around again, but in a much improved way. "Flat" is under serious assault by changing technology. :) | |
| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker Lordcloud is not making a claim (an assertion without evidence). He is sharing the experience of using the AHB2 in Mono mode. George, let's suggest someone bought two parasound bridgeable amps, and they said they sound better in Mono mode than bia... | |
| Revelation: Merlin+Joule- Total bliss dumbeat, If you are using the stock/generic PCs it would be another step up. You may be in vicinity for your budget and current components and speakers, but even between cables there are distinct performance differences. In a basic home system whe... | |
| Revelation: Merlin+Joule- Total bliss dumbeat, I often use PCs by Clarity Cable, but also a good option in your price range is Silnote's Poseidon series. | |
| Revelation: Merlin+Joule- Total bliss dumbeat, congratulations! How lovely that you seem enamored of the sound. Kudos on making a change, one that I feel is superior to the suggestions of inserting a device to manipulate the sound. Imo you would have altered the sound, but not had the... | |
| Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic What strikes me the most about is not that these changes cover a wide range of attributes or characteristics of sound quality; I find that cables globally influence the system's sound. What amazes me is the degree to which these changes happen wit... | |
| Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic maplegrovemusic, yes, I would like to review the Vortex. | |
| Running Benchmark AHB2 in bridged mode and 4 Ohm Speaker I am running a small tower that is 89dB and 4 Ohm, and two of AHB2 in Mono with Exogal Comet and Plus Power Supply take 90 of 100 setting sometimes at listening level. This is no issue for the Comet or the amps, but with less efficient speakers yo... | |
| What is the most dramatic way of increasing a speaker's Bass and Low mid? dumbeat, I respect your choice, and I'm happy that we are chatting rather than flaming each other. Much better fun in audio forum participation! :) Duke and I know each other; he is a respected speaker designer. He does a distributed array of subs... | |
| Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic alexatpos, unless there is a reason to take caution with operating a particular speaker on the other outputs, I make it a point just to see what the resultant sound is like to try speakers on all amp outputs, i.e. 4,8,16 ohm. The results can be su... |
