| Any Audiophile Quality Internet Radio Stations Out There? Lots. I use Roon. | |
| Automatic Room Correction has won the Subwoofer Wars not for me. it is a band aid at best and robs your subwoofer of power at worst.It is no substitute for optimized subwoofer placement (within reason). I will argue that these are not either or but instead of. One really interesting thing I’m readin... | |
| Automatic Room Correction has won the Subwoofer Wars I also should have said that how the ARC (generic) treats the rest of the bands is not what I mean to bring up, and this behavior is a lot more varied and subjective. It is in the subwoofer integration though that almost all ARC systems are better... | |
| Automatic Room Correction has won the Subwoofer Wars TBC: By ARC I mean the acronym generically, not a particular brand. There are at least 4 brands of automatic room correct systems which include subwoofer integration. Adjusting the arrival time and levels of a sub to match the main speakers is tri... | |
| Luxman L-509X People like me actually use these features. If I'd wanted a minimalist setup I'd have bought something else. | |
| Magico A3, suggested integrated amp. You have one I really like, one I really dislike, and also listen to Ayre. :) | |

| 'Anthem Room Software Anthem's stuff is for their processors and preamps/integrateds. Here's something much closer to what you are looking for:https://www.minidsp.com/products/streaming-hd-serieshttps://www.minidsp.com/dirac-series/ddrc-22d | |
| I blew up my receiver. Now what? If you got smoke, you did some serious damage. Take it to a repair shop. Erik | |
| Power Conditioners So if wall warts go into the dirty zone, does it also mean the DAC and the record player? Only amp and CD player have grounded power cables so they go into the clean zone? Dirty/clean is not about having a ground plug. The ground plug is usua... | |
| Better Power Supply for a Router? The ifi line of wall warts is pretty solid. | |
| Aegir upgrade to Pass...maybe Have you heard Luxman and Ayre as counter points? | |
| Power Conditioners Hi OP,I think that the difference is whether they use parallel only parts, like for surge protection, or whether they try to do noise as well. The issue is that parallel surge protection and filtering simply can’t get down low enough in the freque... |
