| Best Holographic Speakers ~$7k per pair The most holographic speakers i have heard in my life are the Omega SAM's they put a huge sound scape that envelopes you in the listening space. I've yet to find a speaker that can do what they did for sound staging. They have other issues though ... | |
| Chinese DAC's I suppose as a Canadiann now is not the time to buy a US made DAC, I was considering a couple, now maybe it's the time to try one from China / EU. Should have grabed one a few months ago oh well. | |
| Upgrade ....streamer or amp? f it was my money, I'd recommend you upgrade to an outboard DAC, I do not see the sound improving much doing another streamer. A quality DAC is going to have the largest increase in sound considering your options. A streamer’s internal DAC is gene... | |
| New buy, no return policy If you're able to listen to them in the store, will they not let you take them home for a home demo? If not i'd buy from somewhere else. Or get the used ones and save some money. Who cares about warenty on a used speaker. If it didnt break in the ... | |
| Replacement/upgrade for Bluesound and Chord Mojo 2 streamer/external DAC combo "Mojo 2 is around US$600 together, so ideally would like to spend that much or up to US$1,000" I do not think your going to beat the Mojo for your budget just make a differance/ side step. Maybe a powersupply for the Mojo, but IMO Chord makes a... | |
| Turntable to Phono to Pre connections well from my understanding phono carts are inherently balanced so it is easy to add a balnaced cable to them. I've never done it or know anyone that has. I believe you have to rewire the tone arm as well. | |
| Tube amp/ preamp advice Anything from 2wpc and up will fit the bill, but if you’re going to crank it up to fill a larger room maybe 20wpc and up. Really any tube amp will work. If you want a warmer side stick with traditional old-style tubes like 2A3,300b, EL34, EL84. Al... | |
| Suggestions for Preamp Tubes Could also be the KT150's IMO they can be overly bright tubes and IMO not a great match with Klipsch. pobably way more power then you need as well. JJ's are not the tube i'd go with if your looking for a warmer sound. you really need to look at... | |
| How remove odor from interconnect? put some shrink wrap on them and seal them away. | |
| Are internal component upgrades worth it. what Carlsbad2 said. and cabinet/horn damping is also a factor in these that should be adressed. | |
| Rel Carbon Special hook up question either or. I've used both with no noticable differance. | |
| Search for B&W Silver Signature 25/30 Speakers Are you selling your 2030's? I've dreamed of a set for years. | |
| B&W Knock-offs they are on sale $1785 can$ so $1400ish USD. lol look the part anyway | |
| What Speakers are Available Today Similar to the Von Schweikert DB99? Many speaker manufactures make hi efficiency speakers still. If you like them or not is of course a personal thing. I find many of them are: horn loaded, Single driver wide banders, combination of horn and box’s and Open baffles. Of course, there ... | |
| Sound room humidity I watched an interesting video on Rick Beato’s site, he was interviewing a sound guy who did live concert sound. He mentioned that they must take humidity into consideration when setting up the sound in the live event as it effects the sound quite... |
