Budget DAC/Preamp with Remote? The PS Audio is solid but it seems to be a dollar for dollar trade between it and the Benchmark DAC2? | |
Budget DAC/Preamp with Remote? The NAD is interesting in how it converts EVERYTHING and measures really well doing it. I love the fact that most of these options are balanced as well. | |
Anyone using a Class D amp w/ribbon tweeters? I ran BelCanto with Magnapan 1.6s for years. It was pure sex. | |
Room correction, DSP for dummies. SPEAKERS AS THEY ARE DESIGNED! I know people who design things for a living. I have not talked to many who said they were not often forced to make tradeoffs between what they desire vs what is possible given their reality. I am also 100% positive ... | |
Room correction, DSP for dummies. Interesting conversation and one I have some feelings about. I have this terrible personality defect that tends to make me dive way too far down the rabbit hole on most of my hobbies. I grab something and squeeze the crap out of it until I get a p... | |
Budget DAC/Preamp with Remote? Thanks for added feedback. I feel a little funny saying it but I have a little emotional connection to my amp. It's likely not as awesome as my lurv of it but hey... Some hobbies are not fully logical. | |
Room correction, DSP for dummies. Very interesting. So it seems there are some decent options AND competition that are already under $1000! I can just build my system then when I’m ready grab which of these best suits my needs and plug it in between source and DAC/Pre and go to to... | |
The RME ADI 2-DAC 32Bit/768kHz Are the balanced and RCA outputs both live at the same time? I may like to run RCAs to subs and balanced to my Belcanto. | |
Budget DAC/Preamp with Remote? THAT looks interesting! The fact it includes an EQ makes me think I may be able to tickle that little dull spot between 1000-2000hz in the LS50 as well. Good call! Thanks for the lead! | |
B&W Matrix 802 series 2 vs series 3 vs ATC SCM40 Anyone have information about whom may be doing crossover upgrades for this speaker? | |
Vandersteen 1 repair. Stringreen. I don't question them. Looking at options is simply wise imo. Doing so led me to Vandersteen in the first place. | |
Vandersteen 1 repair. Trade value on the new version is not the worst idea ever. I'll be running a Benchmark DAC1 and upgraded BelCanto Evo 200.2 with them so it may make for a damn nice combination. | |
Vandersteen 1 repair. Madisound responded to email and inform me that they think there is a Seas driver that should be pretty much an exact replacement. The initial numbers look good as the impedance, efficiency and range look spot on... Should know more soon enough. | |
Vandersteen 1 repair. $180 seems to be the 1 woofer cost. If that was for both I would likely have them out and in route for repair already. | |
Vandersteen 1 repair. Stevecham. It would seem logical to me that they would keep a few drivers in stock and simply charge core to get rebuildable pieces back. Jperry. I may still switch it up a little but I do in fact like the design and ideology behind these speakers... |
