| A case for running speakers full range - Tekton Double Impact SE w/ SVS SB16 subs Thanks for the replys. I have my subs in the front corners on the outside of the speakers.. This makes alot of sense.. Now my issue is how to do this with my Anthem STR pre. To use the subwoofer outs, you have to turn on the "Convert Audio" feat... | |
| Anthem STR "Convert Analog" sounds much worse @djones51 wait what? I thought setting the crossover in the Anthem created a high pass or low pass whatever for the mains... i.e. setting the xover at 50hz sends nothing below 50hz to my main speakers.. No? So using the subwoofer management on... | |
| Anthem STR "Convert Analog" sounds much worse @djones51 thanks... I kinda suspected that and mentioned it on another board and people told me it's "not exactly totally really like that" that I was still getting the goodness of the Lumin dac, but I really didn't see how that was since the Anth... | |
| A case for running speakers full range - Tekton Double Impact SE w/ SVS SB16 subs @uberwaltz thanks... I feel I've read a lot recently about how relieving your amp/speakers from the low freq's opens things up and things are overall more dynamic, but I'm totally not seeing that. If anything, I see it as less processing and t... | |
| Anthem STR preamp vs Integrated amp preamp section Are you asking me a question? You want a direct connection from your iPhone to your Anthem STR? | |
| Anthem STR preamp vs Integrated amp preamp section I think the consensus would be that streaming anything straight from your iphone would be considered an inferior source in the first place. If you can afford an Anthem STR product, why wouldn't you get a dedicated streamer like the Bluesound Node... | |
| Anthem STR preamp vs Integrated amp preamp section @george_r Gotcha, I'm not sure. I don't see why it wouldn't but there are many more knowledgeable than I. I do know that if you connect via USB then you're using the Anthem's DAC so there's no need for an "i device" dac. | |
| Anthem STR preamp vs Integrated amp preamp section @george_rIt does have a USB input if that's what you're looking for. But it does not support streaming airplay. Not sure if this is the response you're looking for. | |
| Q Acoustics Tensegrity tripod speaker stand - where can i find something like this ?! @kenjit yes i followed that link and don't see where it says you can buy separately. I thought I checked all over. It's just the speakers main page. Im going to feel stupid if I'm missing something obvious. | |
| Q Acoustics Tensegrity tripod speaker stand - where can i find something like this ?! @kenjit I don't think you can buy the stands separately. | |
| Q Acoustics Tensegrity tripod speaker stand - where can i find something like this ?! yeah i saw those solidsteel ones.. They just don't achieve the same aesthetic imo. I'm trying to also look for just normal small tables used for plants or side tables. Surely there's something like them even if they're not dedicated speaker stands. | |
| Ditching Lumin T2 - Lumin U1 Mini or Bluesound Node 2i Continuation of my previous post....so you end up saying "ok i think that probably sounds best." Listen to the next song, nope! Something's wrong.. Tweak adjust... Find the new perfect setting just question it constantly. The thing I've found ... | |
| Ditching Lumin T2 - Lumin U1 Mini or Bluesound Node 2i @big_greg yeah it's definitely smoother with 4 but ensuring they're all in phase is the tough part.... Because, you're never sure which subs are out of phase.. Normally one or two are in phase with the speakers and slightly out of phase with the ... | |
| Ditching Lumin T2 - Lumin U1 Mini or Bluesound Node 2i @big_greg I have 2 SVS SB16s and 2 SVS SB2000s. Love the 4 subs but the sb2000s are really for experimental use and fun. Those will either be sold or go to a second room soon.But yes, I can tweak the subs in the app. It's just more manual and I ... | |
| Ditching Lumin T2 - Lumin U1 Mini or Bluesound Node 2i big_greg I can bypass it all... But I can't use bass management or ARC if I do. |
