| New Parasound Halo JC1+ monoblocks just released!!! I find it a little bit strange that all of the PR is about the “technical improvements” and not about the sonic improvements If they are correct technical improvements, then it improves the sonics as well. Also Parasound aren't the sort of ... | |
| Bazaar buzz Just to add, if you have a Buzz still with the inputs both shorted, then the amp has a problem, and needs to be looked at.Cheers George | |
| Audio Physic speakers Most of the older flagship models I've heard are image/sound staging and depth kings.Cheers George | |
| Bazaar buzz Sorry misread your first post, as you have a buzz when the inputs are open circuit, but in fact it’s the only time the buzz is not there.See if you have a buzz when you plug in some "shorting rca plugs" into the amp.Cheers George | |
| Active or passive? I would have thought the complete control over the amp by a speaker manufacturer would offer amazing results...to the point of choosing active over passive in many cases. Simple, I’ve always found the more "active components" that are in the sign... | |
| Active or passive? that should be revealing dumb auto correct. | |
| New Parasound Halo JC1+ monoblocks just released!!! That’ll quickly come down just like the old ones did 30%, as Parasound like to do volume with their products. Probably around $12-$15k once the dust settles. Yikes, almost twice the retail. But it looks like they pulled out all the stops on this n... | |
| Active or passive? George, what I meant is that there are some active speakers I"ve listened to that I didn’t like the voicing. Even in passive mode it wouldn’t have mattered. I’ve done a lot of this with very reviling ESL’s >150hz with dynamic bass drivers <... | |
| Bazaar buzz So if I plug my ARC Classic 60 into the wall with the speakers hooked up and turn it on I get no buzz. Please note that no other equipment is plugged in NOR are and interconnects attaches to the amp or any other piece of equipment. Your gettin... | |
| Synergistic orange fuses i know burning in helps, which it ‘has’ definitely over a few hours playing, but how long should I give them before (perhaps returning them under their generous 30 rule?) Send them back, others here will have you burning them in🤦♂️ changing dire... | |
| Active or passive? There was always something special about the active speakers that I found alluring even if I wasn’t in love with the voicing. For bass active is the best, tightness and control "the alluring"But for the mids and highs go quality passive, then you... | |
| Genesis digital lens As you may or may not know, the Genesis digital lens is suppose to remove jitter and to reclock the digital material. Would this device improve the final output or just can I exist without adding the genesis digital lens???? It helped the sound... | |
| Monoblock power amps same dedicated outlet? Looking for input whether putting both monoblock power cables into same dedicated line outlet receptacle is ill advised. Always best in the same highest quality outlet, as if in different ones there is a chance of creating an earth loop with th... | |

| Stynergistic Research FEQ X 4 Interesting now you think being an "SR Fuser" is derogatory, now that’s making progress for you to becoming an anti snake oil campaigner, maybe you can drag your messiah "geoffkiat" along and the other musketeers. Good for you miller. |
