| How to make small room sound bigger The question is, do I need to maximize absorption vs diffusion ? I’d rather not do near field listening. | |
| Sonus Faber Elipsa vs. Elipsa SE I had a chance to hear both. I got the SE version. Much better tweeter. Much better finish. The tweeter is the biggest reason to get the SE. The upgraded tweeter comes off their flagship 45K legendary Stradivarius, which is currently listed on Aud... | |
| Conditioner vs. Surge protector It’s out of stock on Amazon | |
| Conditioner vs. Surge protector Thanks for all the feedback. I hired an electrician, he will install whole house protection. I will also add higher end conditioners with protection before any stereo component. | |
| Conditioner vs. Surge protector that's very helpful, thanks | |
| GIK Vicoustic and others For ceiling Getting double 5/8 dry wall with green glue and safe and sound stuffing. what should I do with the floor ? It’s concrete now. I don’t think I can install hardwood on concrete. Thick vinyl floor ? | |
| GIK Vicoustic and others @barts why double dry wall if you’re already using rock wool ? Where did you instal spray foam ? Why is glue important? | |
| GIK Vicoustic and others @ bjp9738 My friend had a similar experience, long wait for poorly packaged damaged panels. They did not replace the entire panel, just the front plates, and he had to fix them himself. Sounds like Vicoustic is more professional and higher quality. | |
| GIK Vicoustic and others Would double dry wall be sufficient or do I need insulation such as rock wool ? Has anyone tried both? | |
| Lumin or Aurender Aurender bested lumin on every level during the last 2 years. | |
| Diablo 300 vs Luxman 590AXii with Sopra 3 what kind of sound are you after? Spora has a beryllium tweeter which could be quite bright. Class A Luxman is a good thought but may not be powerful enough to fill the room. Look into Mcintosh integrated, specifically MA12000, its a tube pre with... | |
| Bluesound Node 2 and Node2i with Oppo Sonica DAC Look into Aurender, great streamer and some models come with superb DACs, far better than Oppo. Alternatively, get a better DAC and keep Node as a streamer. It has the best interface, IMO better than Aurender. I own both | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Has anyone heard of Witold Lutoslawski ? Polish composer. Just listened to his Variations on a theme of Paganini (1941) arr. for Piano, strings and percussion. There is only one recording made by Denis Matsuev on Idagio. This recording also in... | |
| Best streamers WITHOUT a DAC I think blue sound node is great, ease of use much better than anything else out there. Tidal connect works flawlessly, no need for proprietary apps, just get a better DAC and you will be all set. Alternatively, get an Aurender A100, it's a t... | |
| Other factors affecting sound great recommendations on insulation and conduits. I was planning to get a barn door for aesthetics, is this a bad idea? any specific recommendations on whole house surge protectors? |
