| Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) What about the Watkins gen 4 speakers? Probably hard to find since they are direct sales. I have heard the Dynaudio's need current to drive them. Used pair of Harbeth 30's? | |
| Speaker Isolation -- Experience with Townshend Seismic Isolation Podiums I have been using the seismic podiums for about a month now. They are the real deal. Everything in the sound improved, bigger sound stage and depth, better definition of instrument placement and bass quality improved. I was going to spike them ... | |
| Footers under my speakers double the perceived value of my speakers! I am using Townshend seismic podiums. I have used the following: 1) nothing 2) spikes through carpet to sub floor 3) spikes on top of 1 1/2 inch flagstone 3) herbies gliders. By far the best has been the Townshend podiums. If you have smaller s... | |
| What's the best isolation system? Another vote for the Townshend seismic podiums. Audio room is on the second floor on carpeted suspended wood floor. Tried no spikes, spikes, flagstone and spikes, herbie's gliders. They tightened up the bass, reduced a node I was getting, ope... | |
| Lumin T2 burn in time? xcool, please keep us posted as you get more hours on the unit. | |
| Doe you enjoy your listening to music and your system more with others or alone? I enjoy sharing with others, especially with young people that have never heard a good system. Alas, most adults get bored pretty quickly except my wife who will request another selection. I usually listen by myself a couple of hours in the even... | |
| All-in-one integrated, 10-15K range, class A/B only Has anyone heard the T+A PA 2500R integrated? Seems like it could be in the mix. | |
| Best small, desktop speakers, $500 or under (new or used) I like the Vanatoo speakers. They always get good reviews and I have a pair for my desktop use. https://vanatoo.com/l/transparent-zero-bluetooth/ | |
| Townshend Audio Podiums - current owners opinion on the merits of this product I installed the Townshend podiums in my system yesterday. My brother who is musician / recording engineer thought the bass had tightened up and you could hear the plucking of the bass more distinctly, any haze was cleared up, the instrument place... | |
| Comparing Powerline Ethernet to WiFi for streaming audio Has anyone compared a mesh range extender vs. a hard wired ethernet connection? | |
| Townshend Audio Podiums - current owners opinion on the merits of this product I believe Max Townshend addressed the perceived bass change. He measured it at a .00 something change in db's. I am getting a pair and will report out on my observations since I have a carpeted suspended wood floor situation. Another friend is ... | |
| IsoAcoustics GAIA footers: impressions I have not been 100% pleased with my speaker placement in my room, so yesterday I decided to start over. I used various math formulas previously and couldn't get a node at about 80-90 Hz to diminish. I went back to the Wilson set up where you sp... | |
| Loud popping noise with Classe Audio SIX pre-amp in phono MC mode I agree with pops, I had a similar problem with an older McIntosh pre amp. The problem seemed to go away after it got warmed up and it turned out to be a loose solder joint. | |
| HFT High Frequency Transducer Ok, I'm one of the biggest skeptics when it comes to a lot of tweaks. When I was at RMAF last year and visited the Synergistic Research room, they did a real time demonstration of the effect of the HFTs. The room was treated with them and when t... | |
| Synergistic Research Cable Risers? Ok so I heard them at 2019 RMAF. I'm a big skeptic in all the audio voodoo. They had them in the system and then removed them on the same audio cut. Yes they made a difference. So here is the caveat. I'm not sure if it was the riser or the HF... |
