| Proac Response 3.8 stereo imaging is not centered Presumably you have listened to the tweeter, putting your hand over the mid-bass unit that follows jsut to check? Likewise with the top mid-bass unit? This might help you single out which unit has lower amplitude. Otherwise (assuming it's not ju... | |
| New speakers for 15*12 room powered by Lamm 1.2s? I suggest you upgrade your DAC before you sacrifice the Thiels. The 7.2 are good speakers and I have never heard them sound too bright. The Lamm is an excellent amp (my subjective opinion) and I’ve never heard it sound harsh / bright either... Wh... | |
| Do No Harm ... well the least harm anyway Hi - the response to your question re, "intrusive to the original signal" is to use a passive ("line-level") or active, analogue xover. The passive is the easiest implementation, all you need are the electronic characteristics of the source & ... | |
| Digital vs Analog experiment The issue is not that analog is inherently better. The recording is actually different. Agreed - although I would suggest "the source material is better". That said, may people actually like the analogue sound, in and of itself (I do too). No ... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 or Vitus SIA-025mk2 / RI-101mk2 Not knowing your tastes, speakers, musical preferences etc, here goes: if you want ultra high resolution, Vitus. If you like tonal accuracy and musical flow and more power, Diablo. That said, either of them can drive most if not all contemporary... | |
| exploring DACs Am I barking up the wrong tree if I preferred the sound of the Delta Sigma DAC in the Chord? Or is there some flavor of r2r that I might like? The simple answer is no or, I doubt it. I had a MSB Select II (ladder) and loved it, but ultimately ... | |
| darTZeel Agree with the above. Any speaker you like with 90+ sensitivity would do fine. The MBLs are not among these Given the voicing of the amp, I would go for speakers with a flat and extended high frequency. One "point source" type of speaker I woul... | |
| People complain about lack of bass, not enough mid range. Solution? Try optimising speaker placement. Then, try some room treatment (diffusers, absorbers, etc) - As other have noted above, you might find the bass magically appears! Following the above you may wish to bi-amp -- or not, as it were. OTOH, if you li... | |
| If you have a nice system why do you really need room treatments? Hi - I assume you are not out to take the mickey out of the rest of us so, It’s about a really nice system in a room and you should be able to discern the qualities of a really nice system in room. in order to do that, you have to hear the qua... | |
| Heavy speakers: How to be able to reposition? One way is to place them on a small mat or carpet. The you slide the mat /rug/ carpet. | |
| Audiophile Gershwin Recordings Thanks bringing it to our attention | |
| Swiss Options - Piega & Stenheim Hi @qwaszxxx Firstly, has anyone found themselves in this same position and compared these two models themselves? Unfortunately, no, but I have listened to them separately in show conditions. While I found the Piega clear, with a good dynamic... | |
| Help . . . I’m dumber than my active speakers! I'd take Martijn up on that offer above! | |
| You tube hifi influencers. Love them or hate them? You tube hifi influencers. Love them or hate them? How about, "ignore them"? | |
| Classical Record Collection Needs New Home Hi @laufeyjarson It's kind of you to offer. You could also post on another forum where many members have analogue rigs, including some setup for mono & 78rpm |
