| Poor Fritz Hi,Listen, I just want to remind everyone that we've seen this movie before. Same arguments, same obvious logical fallacies, and same protagonist. Best,Erik | |
| a question for those "in the know" re: the future for quality FM I think finding great radio stations online is the answer.Lots of Jazz and classical stations do a great job. Using Tidal as well. | |
| I really wanted to dislike D'Agostino George,I hope you are getting all the help and support you need in these difficult times.Best,Erik | |
| Wireless pickle What about a rug in between to hide the cable?? | |
| KEF 107.1 or B&W 802 S3 Matrix That kube adds some serious EQ to the speaker. If you are OK with that route, why not try a Schiit Loki?? | |
| Any electronic geniuses here? Yes, assuming an ideal transformer, the measured impedance is related to the impedance at the output by the ratio of winding on the input vs. the output. http://www.vias.org/matsch_capmag/matsch_caps_magnetics_chap6_04_04.html | |
| Poor Fritz So, the point of this thread is how inexpensive Fritz speakers are, and how good they are an how others still unfairly compare them to speakers much more expensive. This post which I have partially quoted is the perfect example of the type of revi... | |

| Speakers which always sound good Well, I think Monitor Audio is a good British brand, but not sure about how well it plays in the avg. vs. ideal setting. | |
| Speakers which always sound good @sokogear Have you listened to KEF's in a variety of environments?? | |
| Speakers which always sound good I just have to say, it is true, I have yet to see a house that has a good room for a stereo. It is frustrating. But then again audiophiles are probably in the 1% category. I can say that I'm firmly in the below 50% category. | |
| Luxman 505uXlI vs Cary SLI-100 Given the modest integrateds I'd say the Klipsch is a very strong speaker, another possible integrated is a Rogue. My concern with the ML with both of these amps is an over softening of the top end due to the speaker impedances ( I assume you mean... | |
| Need more slam! Help! Of course, you could also move the speakers closer to the wall. :) | |
| Need more slam! Help! Hi Sammy,That's more midbass. Here's the thing. What you could do is:Treat the roomAdd an EQ but just for the woofer. That lets you keep your mid/treble pure, but play with the mid bass. |
