| Mccormack dna-1 protection problem +1 Soix.If you don't get Steve, Pat can help, too.If you can swing it, try to get the amp upgraded. It is well worth the money.Bob | |
| Vandersteen Sub woofers v Rythmik Subs @noble100 ,I think Johnny was referring to the integrated equalizer in the new Sub 3.As far as I know, there are no subs with equalizers incorporated.B | |
| Vandersteen 2Wq subwoofers with M5-HP crossovers - help needed Glad to hear that the problem has been isolated.I would be interested in hearing what Mr. V. finds in those M5-HP's. I didn't think there was anything that could go wrong with them.Bob | |
| Fuses on Magnepan .7 speackers I have heard a difference between fuses, mostly for the better.But, I do think prices have gone a bit too high. Also, some of these designs are not UL spec'd. So, I would be concerned that they would trip when required to- and save the equipment t... | |
| Classical Music for Aficionados Can anyone recommend some good classical music FM music stations that I can access with my Bluesound app?Here in NY, we have what is left of WQXR, but it is a sad memory of what we once had-That is, remembering WNYC, WNCN, and others I have forgot... | |
| Is this MQA news a big deal? @elizabeth,+1I believe MQA is the 21st century version of Dolby. Just another way to get people to believe audio manipulation is supposed to result in 'better sound'.B | |
| Home network audio options (streamer/DAC) I went with the Bluesound Node. It has an internal DAC that can be overridden, but for the price, it is pretty good. Connectivity is excellent and the App just got a serious revision. Customer service is excellent, as well.Though you state you don... | |

| Classical composers, symphonies I just discovered Etienne Mehul. He was around Mendelsohn's time. Very interesting composer. Spotify has a great catalog of Early Romantic composers on mostly Naxos Label.Later Romantic composers:Anton Rubenstein- Piano Cto #4 and numerous piano p... | |
| Vandersteen Sub woofers v Rythmik Subs @bondmanp ,What is wrong with your system?bob | |
| Spotify for classical music lovers I have both Tidal and Spotify and if an album isn't MQA, it seems that the output is the same as Spotify-44K, at least according to my Ayre Codex.I tried Quobuz, but it kept having problems with playback. It would play for a while, stop, and then ... | |
| Vandersteen Sub woofers v Rythmik Subs The Audiokinesis swarm makes sense, but then if you could put 4 or more subs of any brand in your room, you would probably get the same result. The whole idea is to balance room aberrations.As I posted in other threads, the new Vandy sub is probab... | |
| Spotify for classical music lovers +1. Rvpiano.Though some dismiss Spotify for not having High Rez output, I find the search and 'Discover' titles to be a great source of new music/composers.Hopefully, with their IPO, they will consider offering a high resolution output to compete ... | |
| Vandersteen Sub woofers v Rythmik Subs Well, the 'magic' of the Vandy sub system is that the subs integrate with the crossovers(-the subs compensate for the 6db decrease the crossover applies). I don't think there are any other manufacturers that can do the same.I own a set of HSU subs... | |
| New Speakers up to $15k - The more I read the less I know! I would be surprised if Atma-Sphere and Magnepan couldn't offer an audition, but the recommendation of Audio Perfection by mr_m would be a good route.B |
