Speed accuracy- how accurate is accurate? There is your answer. :) But mathematically, it is off by 0.6% of perfect. That's pretty good. | |
Speed accuracy- how accurate is accurate? It is all about enjoyment. Wow / flutter is more important in my mind than absolute pitch. Question is, how much effort are you willing to put in and whether it will be worth it. :-) | |
Anticipated issues with mixing Active + Passive speakers in Home theatre? Here's a good source of clearance center channel speakers I would recommend more:https://www.partsconnexion.com/wharfedale-center-channel-speaker.html | |
Anticipated issues with mixing Active + Passive speakers in Home theatre? Normally mixing speakers is a reasonable compromise in a home theater so long as you have adequate room correction and the speakers have no glaring issues or differences in dispersion.

Please vote The McIntosh is going to give you the most headphone like experience. If you have limited placement options, or are unable to treat your room acoustically, that will be my vote. The Sopra and B&W have rather pronounced treble treatment. Would ... | |
Pass XA200.8 Review - Fun measurements @shadorneI see where you are going. There are a number of tube pre’s I’d like to have in my system, but due to budget, and space I’m living a hyper modern lifestyle. A Myteck Brooklyn DAC to ICEpower amps via pure silver interconnects.However, I h... | |
MAC Autoformers? Honestly, I think the big thing is taste. From the perspective of creating an ideal voltage source, the autotransformer is garbage, but if that tickles your ears, and it is your money, then that's what you should get. That simple. Best,E | |
Best sounding "budget" integrated amp for Vandersteen 2C. Did I already recommend an Arcam? I really really like the sound of those integrateds. | |
Tekton DI Monitors To be clear:The tweeter array has no apparent comb filtering as a result of the array itself. All those armchair designers and array detractors were W R O N G. OTOH, the array to woofer matching shows plenty of comb filtering, none of which the A'... | |
Tekton DI Monitors Hey @teajay Read my comments, from the very first posting until now. When have I assessed the sound quality of these speakers? In fact, I make it clear you should listen to them, and many replied that they only care in the sweet spot. At most, I r... | |
Work Headphones Under $200, sealed, easy to drive Just my luck, HiFiMan 400i and 400s are under $200 right now, and open back. :( They are teasing me! Erik | |
To active speaker or not.. this is the question Actives, especially studio monitors, are a great choice! But there is no right answer. At the end of the day you have to love the sound. | |
BEST SHIELDED XLR CABLES Make your own from solid silver conductors. :) https://www.partsconnexion.com/CONNEX-66070.html | |
Tekton DI Monitors stfoth - Possibly. The reflections on the floor and ceiling from them will be complicated. I would definitely attempt a lot of absorption on the floor all around these. Between them as well as between them and you. Best,Erik | |
Mytek Brooklyn DAC+ or Schiit Yggdrasil? The Schiit and Mytek are very very close in tone and resolution of low level detail. |
