| Advice on Revel Ultimate Studio2 Ex-Demo Purchase Assuming the dealer paid 50% of MSRP to acquire the speakers, He/She then gets to depreciate the other 50% over the 5 years being used as demos. Also, the dealer should have replaced BOTH tweeters, not just one, just for YOUR piece of mind. | |
| Glare on Choral recordings, classical vocals More thoughts on causes of glare: Could be due to an imperfect crossover configuration. I remember reading a review of a speaker (can't remember which one) where the author stated the crossover points were at 200 hz and 2000 hz. He stated these we... | |

| Slight hum in my amp. Is this normal? Watching this post with interest. I have a Prima Luna integrated making hum. If you are successful getting your fixed, I'll send mine in (under warranty) to see if it is fixable. | |

| MQA according to new Stereophile "loudness button" and "tweaking EQ in presence region" @melm - If there is nothing wrong with the recording, MQA won't fix it. It will, however reduce a monster size Hi-Rez file into something you can stream in a heartbeat. Any value there? | |
| Anyone else try this? Is it me or is medical progress painfully slow? Treat yourself to something audio! | |
