| Are members not leaving feedback anymore? I usually wait for a buyer to leave feedback before I do. Just in case there is an issue with the sale.Bob | |
| Business Ethics in the Audio Industry I agree.It would have been nice if Schiit offered the new Freya at the original price, seeing as you had already placed the order.I doubt they would be loosing too much money, but instead gaining greater customer loyalty.Just think if you posted t... | |
| New home power protection? I concur with snapsc.There will be no 100% effective surge protection, but I would, at least, get a sacrificial whole house surge protector. They aren't very expensive, but should provide a good layer of protection.Bob | |
| Kimber 12tc incompatibility with ayre my-r twenty @adg @mike_in_nc ,Great points. I also use about 25 feet of interconnect between my preamp and amp and 6 feet to my speakers.A system with 'true balanced' circuitry allows the interconnects to have minimal effect on sound quality.Bob | |
| Calling all Vandersteen Fans If you are getting the cables from AQ or a dealer, they should be able to offer spades that fit the Vandy's.The GO-4 that I got from Johnny fit like a glove.Bob | |
| Calling all Vandersteen Fans @helomech,I think you made a good choice. I was just posting my experience with adding subs to Vandy's at full range.I wanted to use my 2w subs with the VLR's, but space dictated otherwise.The Hsu subs are good enough for my office, but I wouldn't... | |
| Windows in a listening room I skimmed the video. He seemed more interested in absorption than reflection- the latter, I think is the real issue.I would definitely add something to diffuse the reflected sound from the glass.Having a room with bookshelves, curtains, blinds and... | |
| Calling all Vandersteen Fans I am running a pair of VLR's with HSU subs at full range.I have to admit that I have to dial down the crossover point below 80 hz in order to get a good seamless transition.Though Vandy's may not go to 20 hz, they go pretty far down- and let's fac... | |
| Computer to DAC Streamer I went with a Bluesound Node and use Ayre Codex's for DAC's.Very simple and affordable. Great sound, too.I would also consider Aurender. I got one of Sam Laufer's Mini, but am still working on getting it set up.Bob | |
| Qobuz Users Update? I think there are still a few bugs in the Quobuz app. I know the Android app is giving me some issues.B | |
| Vandersteen 2Wq subwoofers with M5-HP crossovers - help needed Well, there ya' go...B | |
| Vandersteen 2Wq subwoofers with M5-HP crossovers - help needed I would do as Mr. V. said, and check to be sure the impedance is acceptable for the crossovers. The only other Agon'er I would contact would be Ralph Karsten (atmasphere). I am sure he would know if there will be issues with impedance. (And, I kno... | |
| To Equi-Core or Not to Equi-Core? That is the question! @lowrider57 ,Please don't take my word for it. I am just one of those that doesn't get too anal about mixing digital and analog.😆Bob | |
| To Equi-Core or Not to Equi-Core? That is the question! @lowrider57 ,Good questions. I know there is a member who upgraded his unit (and eventually sold it) who would know better than I.But, FWIW, I plug all my equipment in-digtal and analog- and haven't had an issue.Bob | |
| To Equi-Core or Not to Equi-Core? That is the question! I own 2 Equi core 1800's and both perform without issue.Underwood Wally bought the company and I have no doubts he will be a responsible owner.Bob |
