| Good read: why comparing specifications is pointless @coralkong , “This will be my last post to you. You are acting like a petulant child. Go away, I'm not buying your BS, and no how many times you feel the need to get the last word, I don’t agree with you.” +1 me as well. | |
| Silver Speaker Cables @jimski 👍 | |
| Primaluna? @aseaman007 Great questions. Could I suggest you post this as a new thread and delete this. It is a great question. But this is already a long thread. I’d be happy to respond. Big questions. | |
| Best way to keep REL sub from “hopping around” at high volumes Honestly, I have to question subs playing that loud. I found that when they were set more than very low in my audio system, they collapse the soundstage and screw up the midrange and treble. They should not be heard. I used to have 4 800 series s... | |
| Upgrading my digital system Nice looking system. I first would mirror @kota1 ’s comments. There is an enormous opportunity for system tuning and improvements in the sound you get from your existing system. But on your question. First, my streaming sounds the same as an equ... | |
| Are advances in technology making speakers better? No question about the amazing performance of Magico…. very fast and detailed. But watch out what you pair them with… they also reveal upstream flaws, hardness, and hash really well. | |
| I keep being reminded of how much power cords mater @jafant 👍😊 | |
| Not Chinese Fakes But Not big $$$ Either Excellent post. Thanks. Interesting. That is definitely not for me. Just my personality. I certainly understand why folks that like doing this kind of thing would enjoy it. I look forward to hearing what you think of the sound. | |
| Am I Getting Soft Here? @sns That happened to me as well. After my last upgrade I didn’t touch anything for nearly a year I was so entranced with my system… even though I knew little was optimized. Then finally getting curious I did one little thing and the result w... | |
| Is the seated-centered solo listening to music a dated tech? OP, Yes, sorry… I completely misread your initial comments. My bad. I can tell you from my point of view that mono does not hold my interest…. for a second. I have a number of well recorded mono albums… I generally cannot get through two cuts.... | |
| I keep being reminded of how much power cords mater @jafant My dealer also told me the GEN 5 -> GEN 6 was the biggest jumps ever and that the Ultra was competitive with the earlier generation of Opus. I have not made the comparison, but I trust him, everything he has told me has been spot on. | |
| Streamer Recommendation. I bought an Aurlic Aries G2 for this reason. However, then found out that a wall wart wifi extender eliminated the problem. I switched to Aurender, having better sound quality and less hassle. My conclusion after working on streaming in one form o... | |
| Good read: why comparing specifications is pointless Amir, I am sure you are well intended. But you provide evidence that you do not understand what quality audio is all about in your posts. You listen to half of the units? and process 300 units per year? I would not begin to consider evaluating a... | |
| Phono preamp with best mid bass Cool, congratulations! Enjoy. Nothing better than positive reinforcement after a decision, and as @audphile1 said, should only get better. | |
| Packing & Shipping Large/Heavy Speakers Many cities have professional resellers. They take audio gear from trade-ins from audio stores and evaluate and resell. They know how to pack and ship. Or look for local sellers. You may change your mind on shipping anywhere. I found buyers f... |
