Emotiva separates or Yamaha AVR recommendation? I don't think much matters until you have the same LCR speakers. You might get better sound with just L&R with phantom center. Mismatches ruin the soundstage. | |
Need to Know More Full Range Drivers Brands... Lowther JordanTry Madisound.com for tons of drivers. I built Merrill Zigmahornets and love them. You can find the plans online. They will take almost any 4 inch driver. | |
Bookshelf Bake Off So, you said "bookshelf"-are these going in a bookshelf? If yes, you can't have anything rear ported. Anything with decent bass extension may sound drastically different in a bookshelf. You might find things to be more flexible if you consider ... | |
Bruce Moore Custom M125 What Teo said!His pre-amps and phono stages are quite impressive too | |
The low frequency response is Bass, not Base. Explain that to Siri/Autocorrect. | |
Pulling myself out of old, broken equipment, one hesitant step at a time... Odyssey has its following, just not me. I spent a week with one of Klaus' amps and have even met with him. His taste in sound just isn't mine... My 2 cents. | |
Recommendations for Vintage Speakers Big John,Where is home? I've got a couple of vintage pairs really cheap if I don't have to ship. KLH 17's and EV Wolverines.Pittsburgh... | |
Pulling myself out of old, broken equipment, one hesitant step at a time... You will never get your money out of that repair. If you don't think they are the "end all" then why throw money away. Keep that amp if it works fine and put the budget into new speakers. That amp could run forever? | |
Is there such a thing as a bluetooth receiver w/ usb output? I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S7. I usually stream Tidal and the sound is very good. A lot depends on your DAC and the source. For streaming I love KJAZZ.org. | |
Researching value of two pairs of hi-end speakers The triaxials are Jensen 610-B if I'm correct. Value should be around $1000 to $2500 depending on lots of things.The cabinets aren't worth the shipping. Strip them out and sell the drivers and crossovers. | |
Is there such a thing as a bluetooth receiver w/ usb output? The problem I see is bluetooth is an analogue signal. I'm not sure if that's viable??? | |
Is there such a thing as a bluetooth receiver w/ usb output? You need an OTG cable, "On the Go". These are under $10 on Amazon for Android phones. Good luck with Apple... https://www.amazon.com/CableCreation-Micro-Compatible-Android-Tablet/dp/B01M5GZ3N0/ref=sr_1_7?keywords=OTG+cable&qid=1564324499&am... | |
Researching value of two pairs of hi-end speakers The EV's are similar to Klipsch and I was told that some had the Cornwall's mid-range driver??? I've got a pair now and the sound is good, typical horn but my Cornwalls were nicer. The EV's are pretty common and many were even kits. They are ef... | |
Playing SACDs Ahh, now I get it. That is a problem with SACD. The format is proprietary and they are not allowed to pass the digital signal. So, you are very limited with 2 channel SACDs.Without a doubt the Hugo sounds better.My 105 does have toslink and coa... | |
Playing SACDs Tell me if I'm reading into this incorrectly but: If you want to run your Oppo into the Hugo this is for 2 channel listening, correct? My 105 outputs digital 2 channel to my Hugo. Most SACDs are hybrid 2 channel discs. Yes, if you have pure SA... |
