| Best multi-purpose subwoofer Hi Tim, Once again thanks for the detail write up. I also have been reading a ton and making phone calls to better understand how multiple subwoofers in a room make the bass better and how at the end of the day the Swarm system really is a great v... | |
| Best multi-purpose subwoofer @noble100. Believe me I have read your post in detail slowly, sometimes a couple times and it has a wealth of information in it - and all of it makes sense and follows the audiophile do’s and dont’s. I am now inclining to give the Swarm base syste... | |
| Need DAC/Streaming Advice Hi Steve, I always appreciate your posts. Unfortunately unlike other folks on this forum, I stream using Apple Music. Don't find much difference between Tidal basic and Apple music basic plans. And besides the entire household is using Apple Music... | |
| Best multi-purpose subwoofer It’s interesting to see so many different opinions. The product reviews online are all over the place too. Right now I am getting a good deal on an Earthquake supernova MKIV 15 inch for $625 and an NHT CS-12 for $500. Just lost a great deal on a R... | |
| Need DAC/Streaming Advice @johnkay74 - if you don't have Roon, what's the best way to stream Apple music from Allo Digi One? I really don't want to use Airplay as I believe it compromises on the sound. Also I want to stick with Apple music because of everyone in the family... | |
| subwoofer to digital music and movies Earthquake is great. The form factor is big and not pleasing to the eyes in the Family TV room. What I’ve heard of the REL’s is that they are for both music and HT and can be connected to both at the same time. Not sure if Earthquake can. | |
| Need DAC/Streaming Advice Really trying to understand why audiophiles prefer AirPlay? | |
| subwoofer to digital music and movies Instead should I selling my Earthquake sub for a REL or other brand? | |
| Best multi-purpose subwoofer Never really heard of the Swarm. The website seems weak without much info and it’s not been mentioned or written up elsewhere besides AS. Also the set up for 4 not being wireless means running wires all across which is definitely a no. I’ve narrow... | |
| Need DAC/Streaming Advice Does playing Tidal or any other service via AirPlay affect SQ? I’ve A/B using Apple TV direct connect to my Benchmark DAC and AirPlay and there is definite SQ compromise with AirPlay. | |
| subwoofer to digital music and movies Thanks for the reply and it makes sense. The sub I have does not have the DSP and is one level lower supernova MKIV - which happens to have the high level input along with the LFE and hence my question on using both. | |
| Best multi-purpose subwoofer How are the REL subs? Earthquake Supernova? | |
| subwoofer to digital music and movies Thank you for the response. I appreciate it. Couple of point - first I've read when connecting .LFE from Marantz you are technical using the Marantz processor to adjust the X-over frequency and at that point the subwoofer internals are turned off.... | |
| Sound Quality of red book CDs vs.streaming @missingtime where does the ethernet cable go? My Apple TV is ethernet hard wired (like it better than Airplay) - going into OPPO105 (to split the HDMI sound) - coax out from OPPO going into Benchmark DAC. How can I use a better ethernet cable? Wi... | |
| Budget Music Streamer I am really now torn between Allo DigiOne signature or a Mac Mini set up for my digital music streaming. Understood Mac Mini will need some additional cleaning up front - a USB to spdif converter (my Dac does not have USB) and a reclocker to begin... |
