| LOUDNESS COMPENSATION EITHER IN AN EQUALIZER OR LOUDNESS CONTOUR CONTROL IN AN AMPLIFIER If you get the shitt Loki max you will have remote control and 3 presets. You can make an adjustment for low listening, then save it. They have a 15 day trail so you can try is first for a minimal restocking fee. I dont need to use mine much , but... | |
| what amplification are you running with your Dynaudio Heritage Specials? Running mine with a Pass 250 integrated. Glorious midrange and deep bass. Nice upgrade from my special 40’s, which are awesome speakers. | |
| anybody upgrade from Dynaudio Special 40 to Heritage Special? Keep the 40’s IMO the heritage are not worth the price to upgrade. I traded my 40’s for the heritage and I am thinking of selling and buying another pair of 40’s. I am using a passlabs 250, so it’s not an amp issue. I will say, the heritage is mor... | |

| Buying Used Equipment on the Internet Good advice here. If you are new to the game, you might start off with TMR,ebay or this site. Buying used IMO is when you know what your want and looking for a good price. I did one friends and family purchase, but I did contact the person I bough... | |
| What happened to all the highend stereo shops @RLJ, You forgot Soundworks, in Wheaton,MD. One of the biggest Krell dealers on the east cost. IMO, they were one snobby dealer. Once the son took over the shop, the shop died quickly. | |

| Burn in vs perception It seems we all have different experiences concerning break in. I have 7 pair of bookshelf speakers and most seemed to change sound over time. I have a Loki Max EQ and I would need to control brightness for a time. After the so call burn in, I wou... | |
| Schiit Loki Max? Stuart, when I say change the characteristic of the speaker, I mean when you adjust a frequency on the loki, it’s as if yoou change how the speakers is voiced. If you adjust the highest treble knob, you can make your speaker become bright. Your so... | |
| High end speakers at low volume You asked about the schitt Loki Max. It will definitely help at low volume. Someone mentioned about adding noise, well maybe with a scope you , might see it, but to my ears I hear nothing added to my music. Because the unit is all analog it seems ... | |
| Focal 926 -----> Dynaudio Special 40 or..... The special 40 would have no problem filling your room. However those speakers like current to sound their best. I use mine with a Pass Labs integrated 250. A speaker that would definitely fill your room and is very dynamic is the JBL 1600. These ... | |
| Too powerful of an amp!? Yes you can go higher. In fact if it’s a high current amp, it will be more beneficial. I run my Pass 250 with many bookshelf rated less than 250w rating. No issue what so ever. | |
| Schiit Loki Max? I have had MY LOKI Max for about a year and I must say I could not do without it in my system. I have space limitations in my room, which cause me to locate my bookshelf speakers close to the rear wall. What I like most about the Loki, is it seems... | |

For me, I have purchased my speakers based on reputation and read as many reviews about a speaker I am interested in. i rarely by new, so if the speaker has generated a lot of interest, easy to sale if I don’t like it. Since my audio system is in ... |
