| Genelec SAM active studio monitors for home use Have listened to the smaller Genelecs 8331 for an hour at a dealer (listening room) with the room correction active and at a distance of 1,30 meter.They are a little more hifi-ish than I expected. Warm sound, tries to play more bass than they shou... | |

| Speakers for a small room @rollintubes will soon upgrade my 12s to 19s or 20s. For the SL driver. Might at the same time need a bigger desk. Yes, you like to find another better, but always come back to them. And the easyness with wich you can integrate a sub, preferrably ... | |
| Bluesound Vault 2i, Cocktail Audio X40 or ?????????? For me it's my son with the golden ears. Wife's only interested when I put on some Mercury, Bowie or Boccelli.Always tries to a/b test streamers, dacs, amps and speakers. So far my ears only recognized real differences with speakers.....Favourite ... | |
| Speakers with the most detailed midrange? (non-ESL/planar) Very nice recommendations and interesting thoughts here. Keep on!At the moment I am surprised how good sound I have at my working place since I placed my ATC SCM12 there powered by a paradigm AMP with ARC2 room correction. Source is Tidal from PC ... | |
| Bass audition for your system.... As @Jafant mentions Jamie Cullum is a young talented man that really gets the SQ right. "Photograph" on his cd Cathing Tales is another track (of many) where the fine bass (electric in this case) has to fight a little to be heard (after the intro)... | |
| Bluesound Vault 2i, Cocktail Audio X40 or ?????????? Thanks. Nice test procedure. No arguing there :-) | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Was listening to Rita Coolidge’s 2018 album and then found the beautiful "Out of the blues" from 2010 (maybe). Remember her old redordings with Kristofferson. And background singer for Cocker. History. Tidal naturally. | |
| Bluesound Vault 2i, Cocktail Audio X40 or ?????????? What I understand its the same DAC in node2, node2i, vault2 and vault2i. But the i-version includes other techniques taken from the NAD M51 which is said to have had a "big" positive effect on the sound. @djones51 Can I ask what DAC would sound so... | |
| Sound Quality of red book CDs vs.streaming +1 marshmallows | |
| Bass audition for your system.... @n80 Which recording of the organ symphony are you referring to?When you test bass don’t miss to try songs where the bass has to fight with the kick-drum and other instruments to be heard. The bass resolution is just as important as the capability... | |
| Bluesound Vault 2i, Cocktail Audio X40 or ?????????? The streaming you have. And it works very well. But the built-in wifi you miss with the Vault. Or am I wrong? Note that the new i-series is out now and the reviews says considerably better sq. Maybe just marketing....... | |
| Speakers with the most detailed midrange? (non-ESL/planar) High quality pro speakers have my vote. E.g. Genelec serie 8331-8351 with GLE room correction software. ATC mentioned. Kii. Barefoot, PMC, Many more. Pro speakers job is to reveal midrange. Some are also really nice to listen too. Some are too goo... | |
| Speakers for a small room ATC has to be mentioned in all speaker recommendation threads :-). For that kind of money you can find a used SCM50 passive. The smaller passive SCM12 (pro-speaker) is a giant killer for much lesser money. Then you have money left for a profession... |
