KEF 107 without Kube
@mofojo no because we were walking back to the car when I thought to ask. I've never auditioned speakers before where they EQ'd them so I didn't think to ask.  Also, I'm getting such a good deal that they're easily worth the money even if I'm not ... 
KEF 107 without Kube
@roxy54 Let me help you understand a little better. Most "audiophiles" prefer the straightest less altered signal path as possible. They want to believe their speakers are capable on their own merits to produce an accurate full range of sound with... 
KEF 107 without Kube
@roxy54 Can you provide a universally accepted definition of an audiophile? You're probably right to assume I'm not that. I am, however, annoyed by your response and kindly ask for you to troll your superiority complex to other boards.@yakbob I te... 
KEF 107 without Kube
So I just auditioned them at this dudes house and they were stupid amazing.  The bass was very deep and full for a speaker this size, or almost any size for that matter..  But THEN I found out later that he had turned the bass knob up to +6 to get... 
Cost to keep equipment running / on
thecarpathian, I figured someone already had a pretty good idea, and that was answered.  Saved $20 too :) 
Cost to keep equipment running / on
pauly, how do you think numbers get input to the screen.  A calculation from measurements.  It measures, and calculates. Also many of these tools will calculate cost I believe after you input your rate. Thanks for that waste of a post. 
Cost to keep equipment running / on
@hilde45 thanks for the site. Yeah none of those are sucking that much energy.  I guess mine is all the AC then.  Yes i know it's "easy enough" to get the tool to calculate the energy usage but I have better things to do with my time than figuring... 
Add a subwoofer to the center channel?
@russ69 I suppose I could try that but turning these on their sides so the driver facing forward isn't going to fly aesthetically, at least for more than a day.Surely someone has experience going from a smaller center to a larger full range center... 
Add a subwoofer to the center channel?
@russ69 Yeah RELs aren't known to be rated down that low I agree.. These are very small subs so they're not output beasts anyway. But adding them to a soundbar, I can almost promise you you won't miss the sub 20hz lack of performance.Anyway, I gue... 
Add a subwoofer to the center channel?
Ha well I have two REL t5i's and a KEF r400b hanging around that I like to put in different places.I had the RELs on a soundbar and it sounded SO good for a bedroom or send room system. 
Add a subwoofer to the center channel?
@erik_squires I was going to use a REL t5i and use the Neutrix (ms i know) connector.. So set the center to Large and use connect the sub directly to the speaker posts as you'd normally connect a REL.  This would create one "Large" center.REL does... 
Hang / move large tv by myself? Is there a tool?
Yeah I'm going to do some cleanup work and tinkering while the TV is down. Either way, there needs to be a solution for this. Most of us like to move things around, get new tvs, etc... and we don't want to have to bother a friend every time we nee... 
Hang / move large tv by myself? Is there a tool?
@fatdaddy2  There are a couple of problems with asking friends. 1. New neighborhood in new suburb so I don't know many of my neighbors.2. I need this done whenever I want.  I'm not sure how long it'll take me to do all I need to do behind the tv. ... 
Hang / move large tv by myself? Is there a tool?
I think I got it!  I need an electric standing desk.. Most raise to 48 inches and the bottom of my tv is only 43 inches.  I'll build a cradle out of wood and carpet it for safety.  Scoot the desk right under the tv and raise it up so the wood asse... 
BluOS Node vs Auralic software (or other streamer)
@sdl4 Oh yeah i forgot about innuos.. The main reason I haven't tried them yet is I felt I was paying for a cd ripper and storage which I don't want or need.  This is only for streaming. But, their software does look pretty cool.  Do they have a d...
