| I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong Not sure if you are intimating that it is the ICE tech that is an issue (to you) or if the SMPS is not a problem to you. I have not, and will not, use the term SMPS to refer to a power amplifier in general, since the last two initials stand for "P... | |
| Luxman L-509x for B&W 803 D3 I'm looking at the impedance chart. The 509 is no slouch, at all, but the 803 D3 maintains an impedance around 3Ohms for a wide range of the bass to mids. https://www.stereophile.com/content/bowers-wilkins-802-d3-diamond-loudspeaker-measurementsY... | |
| Crossover Capacitors for Accuton Tweeters - Solen -> ClarityCap -> Jupiter -> Duelund << sigh >> with 15uF of caps in each speaker, I just can't do it. | |
| I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong The words of a man who has personal experience in a subject is called expertise. The words of a man who quotes others is called opinion. | |
| Found the bass culprit in my monitor speakers... It is possible to overstuff speakers, but removing it should make it smaller and therefore increase the bottom end (at the cost of a faster rolloff).I know at least one very experienced professional speaker builder (Lee Taylor) who thinks all stuf... | |
| I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong You say you can’t hear it that’s fine then live with it, but stop starting new Class-D threads to look for confirmation/cred from everyone about how good it is compared to the best linear amps. Says the man who has to, absolutely HAS to jump into ... | |
| Opinions of GoldenEar Triton 1 Most of the current show demos with the Triton 1r the speakers sound very smooth in the top end. Good, then I'm sure an extended listening session with them will do nothing but gain the listener's accolades as well. | |
| What is wrong with a sub? Nope, not at all. Integrating a sub well is the only issue. Done well they are spectacular. | |
| I went from Class D to Luxman A/AB - And most of what you think is wrong Don’t need to, they are all variations on a technology that has an achilles heel that can’t be fixed. But only George can hear it. | |
| Opinions of GoldenEar Triton 1 The Triton is not a ribbon. It is an AMT. Having said that, I love good AMTs and can't listen to GE for more than 30 seconds without feeling ear pain. When auditioning them I strongly recommend you listen to horns for an extended period. :) Best,E | |
| Anyone using AudioTools with IMM-6 on iPhone for room correction? It is OK in terms of a static, one location FR. I haven't used it in a long time, but you should be able to see any major bass peaks and dips in your location. | |
| Anyone using AudioTools with IMM-6 on iPhone for room correction? Hey! I have them, as well as OmniMic. Um, question is, what are you going to do with this info? If you don't know, talk to GIK acoustics and ask them for advice. Best,Erik | |
| Anthem STR preamp or integrated OR Parasound P6 OP:MQA is an absolute joke. Get whatever you like. | |
| Anthem STR preamp or integrated OR Parasound P6 The ARC in the Anthem puts it in a completely different league. Not only can you set crossover points but you can significantly improve the quality of your bass output. I have a Parasound P7 (in storage) and I have to run the bass out to a miniDSP... | |
| The term "High End" needs to die. Long live Hi-Fidelity! Hi @teo_audio :You bring up a number of general issues related to rhetoric and persuasion. Let me reply obliquely. Yes, I'm a bit of a troll, but often I do so with purpose, and I think it's valuable. My purpose is, often, to make our choices expl... |
