Will Subwoofer Help? hombre, thank you. Was just hoping for someone to confirm that. Free expert consultation is grand resource. Now I can quit chasing phantoms & go do some detail gardening or rearrange wine bottles. Like maybe everyone, too much dead time on my ... | |
Will Subwoofer Help? m-db, I'm printing out your answer for reference as you've answered a couple additional questions for me. I had forgotten about serial connection for multiple subs. At least everything is on a dedicated circuit and will so remain. Many thanks.hom... | |
Does anyone collect something else other than music. Wine. European.Thousands of bottles. The right choice for any occasion.Women, yes, earlier in life. Experience, yes, all over, and often and various, so many lucky encounters. Books, from philosophy to botany, and not just music and audio kit. Has... | |
Will Subwoofer Help? Thanks, miller & ozzy. I guess just start out running everything full-range, then tweak crossover if/as needed. Think I've got tower placement figured out, and from what I have read, sub placement doesn't really matter. Though I would start be... | |
Left/Right Channels LOL miller & iso. | |
Unreal prices Old and rare and durable are nice. IF not since supplanted by objectively superior products. Only discontinued legends I would crave are non-electronic, and almost all non-mechanical. The exception would be Mouli manual tin rotary cheese grater. W... | |
Schiit Freya+(Plus) Not having compared the two sonically, I can't say. But if balanced operation is important to you, the Freya+ offers two balanced inputs as well as balanced output. There are other functional differences as well. So I would first compare the two f... | |
Why do you think Bi-Wiring improves the sound ? I bi-wire because the speakers are so designed & mfr encourages & already had the wires from last setup. Adding a second pair of binding posts just to enable bi-wiring strikes me as nutty, as others have said. Nobody thinks bi-wiring is h... | |
Schiit Freya+(Plus) Thank you for an excellent idea. Will find a suitable test recording handy on both LP and CD, plus streamable from Tidal. (CD runs COAX into DAC rather than RCA into Freya -- a test within a test). Given any takeaways I can then experiment with NO... | |
Schiit Freya+(Plus) wolf_garcia, are your good results irrespective of input source (DAC or analog)? Tubes give me great improvement with DAC input, but sound overdramatic with phono & tuner inputs. | |
Schiit Freya+(Plus) needlebrush, what upgrades are you considering?I was enroute to Rogue RP-7 when waylaid by this intriguing budgetalternative. | |
Older And Wiser or just Tighter and Deafer? aewarren, same here. The stranger thing is that when I tweak or upgrade the system, and then remember to listen with hearing aids, it gets better still. The upside of older and wiser is that we literally never know what we are missing. We ARE miss... | |
iPad directly into Amp - okay idea? or bad idea? DAC definitely needed. Dragonfly Red a good choice for this modest setup. (Q: why is it that few if any in this forum, or any others in my experience, can spell the word "lightning," as in "a bolt of?" The word "lightening" means "getting lighter"... | |
RIP Art Dudley Another irreplaceable. Only HP could be a greater loss. Immortals all the same. | |
Considering A SS amplifier neonknight with that configuration, maybe you need a new house more than you need a new amp? |
