| Luxman Integrated - What do they sound like Hi @jasonsimI'm curious what you feel the warm up time for the Luxman is.Best,E | |
| Tweeter Capacitor Upgrade (Coincident PREs) So if you are bypassing old caps, measure the ESR, and then ensure that in parallel, your new caps don’t cut that more than 0.2 Ohms or so. You can use something like the free XSim crossover simulator to examine the impedance plot and add the appr... | |
| Tweeter Capacitor Upgrade (Coincident PREs) With bypass I noticed that vocals, saxophones and acoustic guitars sound not as smooth and tonaly reach as it was without bypass. It seems it cause a deep in lover mid range. This can certainly be a symptom of what I'm describing. The amp used ... | |
| Best multi-purpose subwoofer I have a Hsu 15" subwoofer in a rather large cabinet.Well integrated with the room and other speakers, it is better than every single sub out there that is not well integrated. My point is, good integration is worth almost everything, and this is ... | |
| Topping DX3 Pro - Live I installed the drivers in Windows 10, but no idea if they are even necessary. Found the Tidal exclusive mode settings, and same for my MediaMonkey, things got much better after that. A certain harshness that was making my ears hot disappeared. Th... | |
| Best multi-purpose subwoofer Here is a great resource that does not get referenced enough. https://data-bass.com/home | |
| Can someone tell me why Tidal MQA shows as 96Khz when using a non-MQA DAC? BTW, I just tried the suggestions in that article, though finding the settings was a little weird, but I can confirm that I'm getting either 44.1 or 88K depending on what I'm listening to. I imagine the MQA pass through also works.Best,E | |
| Need Help With Diagnosing A Problem OP:I had to touch the unit, however, static problems in different gear evidences itself differently. And yes, a heater in winter will dry everything out quick. Maybe try a bowl of water 2' away from it or so, see if it keeps it from happening. :)... | |
| Tweeter Capacitor Upgrade (Coincident PREs) Let me add a little:If you mess up the 2nd pole in the low pass filter, you can drop the impedance through the area above the crossover point, which actually doesn’t change your LP frequency response very much, but if your amp has very much output... | |
| Can someone tell me why Tidal MQA shows as 96Khz when using a non-MQA DAC? For Windows I found the perfect article. https://inspiringheadphones.com/are-you-getting-the-best-out-of-tidal-hifi/If you have an MQA capable DAC use the eclusive, and MQA passthrough settings. | |
| Tweeter Capacitor Upgrade (Coincident PREs) Old capacitors ESR shouldn't be an issue, because I can adjust HPF cutoff frequency by potentiometer. In shunt caps this can have really bizarre effects, so I doubt it. :) Depends very much on your amp. | |
| Tweeter Capacitor Upgrade (Coincident PREs) For bass caps, you can seriously go cheap. :) It's still a huge improvement. | |
| Tweeter Capacitor Upgrade (Coincident PREs) hi @bache, Sorry, I meant to say the Audyn TC 0.1 uF was $20, and I was recommending it as a bypass. | |
| Best multi-purpose subwoofer I really like Hsu products. But in general, room acoustics and room correction matters a great deal. Best,E | |
| Tweeter Capacitor Upgrade (Coincident PREs) @bache what is your point?? |
