| Tube or Trasistor Room acoustics can contribute to this a great deal. I'm going to give you a free experiment. It is not the final solution but try it and listen.First, speaker placement and toe-in. Some speakers sound best with no toe-in at all, some direct to you... | |
| Tom Petty: It was an "accidental" OD I'm very sad about Tom Petty. I'm also sad about the state of pain and addiction management in our country. Prince had to reach outside of the state he lived in to get addiction care. It's quite likely he had inadequate pain management as well. As... | |
| B+W 801D upgrade crossover Um, I think so, but they wouldn't sound like 801D's anymore! hahaha. :) | |
| Bi-amping Sorry for adding more. What's interesting also is the impedance rise in the treble, along with a drop in response in the top octave. This is a speaker which might actually cry out for a tube amplifier to bring out the most output in that top octav... | |

| Parasound Halo Integrated Buzz/Hum I have owned 3 separate pieces of Halo gear and never had a hum/buzz issue.One thing to try, disconnect any Cable TV/Antennas. They are the most common source of ground issues. There's good cheap fixes if that turns out to be the case. Best,E | |
| Does a streamer do anything to the data that Tidal provides? My practical experience: Depends somewhat on the DAC. I used a Wyred4Sound re-clocker, and it worked really nicely between a Squeezebox and an older DAC. Since I upgraded the DAC, this no longer matters.Best,E | |
