| My Gray Experience Sorry to hear such a frustrating story and the end result is that they will get away with it ! Did you pay on a credit card? Refuse payment, that will get their attention. These shipping fees are out of control. Online shopping is a whole new ... | |
| ?Wireless all in one speakers Swan M300 MKII 3 way. Set them up for my brother-in-law recently and they sound incredible. He loves them and they look quite nice. Paired them with an SVS subwoofer. | |
| What's the weakest link in my stereo set up? I live in a townhome, so limited on space. Townhouses and stereos sometimes don't mix well. Living too close to other people causes a lack of volume and dynamics. | |
| Perhaps the most annoying myth in audio of 2025? Talking about Loudness! The main point to realise is that that no matter what volume control you use, the less you resist or "apply the brakes" the better. The main job of a pre-amp is signal resistance with as little degradation to the signal as possible. Matching a pr... | |
| Perhaps the most annoying myth in audio of 2025? Talking about Loudness! @ghdprentice I never heard that one... It is definitely not true in my experience. Do you use a potentiometer volume control? Most people do. Your amp runs full open and the voltage must be REDUCED to normal listening levels. Any type of pot... | |
| Perhaps the most annoying myth in audio of 2025? Talking about Loudness! The volume knob is like applying the brakes. Restricting the frequency. The higher the volume knob the more resolution is allowed to flow. So, the pre-amp volume knob should be as high as possible within a comfortable range. Of course there's a li... | |
| Replacement same model tweeters like a major component upgrade AMT tweeters are far more delicate and easily prone to injury. I've often womdered about the crittical tension required for proper operation. There would be no way of knowing if the tweeter is out of spec. The effects of humidity, hot to cold or a... | |

| I find myself "tuning out" anymore.....is the magic fading? I don't even think about getting new stuff. The music is the main source of enjoyment. Specifically new music discovery I find entertaining. Like hunting. Sometimes a week or two will pass without turning on the stereo. No guilt and the desire re... | |
| Reference Tracks? My favorite female track for imaging and simple voice purity.... Album..."Jacintha is her name" Track... 'something cool'. For overall dynamics and bass... Album... "Touch YELLO" Track... 'Kiss in Blue' both male and female voice purity OR ... | |
| Would like to get more bass out of my B&W 801 series 2 speakers OP said he listens at "low to moderate" levels. He has no need for more power. He has plenty. Simply add one good sub. You can always add another but at these levels he probably doesn't need it. It's such a simple fix. | |
| Class A\B or D for summer months (vs Class A) You shouldn’t be restricted by your imbalanced AC unit. Run any amp you want in perfect comfort. My listening room was furthest from the AC unit and couldn’t keep cool. Installed a mini split AC unit. Runs perfectly quiet.(no, really, it’s silent... | |
| WHY DO SOME AUDIOPHILES TRY TO TELL OTHERS WHAT THEY CAN OR CAN’T HEAR IN A SYSTEM? Not knowing the scope of your own ignorance is part of the human condition. The problem with it is we see it in other people, and we don't see it in ourselves. The first rule of the Dunning–Kruger club is you don't know you're a member of the Dun... | |
| Dual Sub-woofers paired into two sets of speakers - connection option. @tunehead Correct in your thinking. High level connection will pass along the sound charateristic of your amp. Punchy amp = punchy sub. It uses a small signal and uses no extra load. Highly recomended for stereo set up. | |
