| Dedicated lines — how many? Other advice? @yogiboy Gist of what you're saying is -- 15amp is sufficient? | |
| quiet classical music Try searching for "tafelmusik" in your music streamer catalog or online.I like Mike's suggestions for listening above, but for me 5 Beethoven Piano Concertos and Beethoven and Mahler symphony recordings would never remain "in the background."Speci... | |
| Dedicated lines — how many? Other advice? @lalitk Thanks so much. Yes, the advice has been good, overall, after getting some "my way or the highway" stuff sidelined. | |
| Dedicated lines — how many? Other advice? Thanks, all. As the present space is unfinished, and we’re already needing (for future capacity) to add an additional sub-panel, I suspect that adding multiple dedicated outlets will be relatively inexpensive to do. As I am in Denver and know a fe... | |
| Subwoofer Decisions - REL/Rythmik, Pair/Single, Paper/Aluminum Driver, etc. Quick update -- the Rythmiks work beautifully, and the extra controls on them were very helpful for adjusting them to the room. I have kept the REL also, and it’s now adding something to the mix as a third sub, further away in the room. Adjustable... | |
| Dedicated lines — how many? Other advice? Thanks, @audioman58 Another vote for multiple dedicated lines, and all the other details are being noted! | |
| What process did you use to integrate multiple subwoofers for 2 channel listening? @hleeid Thanks for your post. I tried some elevation but didn't help. Turned out that a different bit of advice from Duke was key -- partly plugging the ports on my stand mount speakers.I'm happy to report that I now have no more than +/- 6 db pea... | |

| What process did you use to integrate multiple subwoofers for 2 channel listening? Thanks, Steve. That sounds like a great result! | |
| Dedicated lines — how many? Other advice? That is the whole point of the test. To educate yourself and your ears to actually maybe understand what everyone else is merely talking about. The fact of the matter is until you have actually done this stuff you just don’t know....It is nice to ... | |
| Dedicated lines — how many? Other advice? P.S. You mention Fremer. He's a smart guy. So is Robert Harley; here's Harley on dedicated lines:"The room’s five dedicated 20-amp AC outlets for the audio system are wired with identical lengths of 10AWG on the same phase…. I specified five dedic... | |
| Dedicated lines — how many? Other advice? Been consulting some very experienced audiophiles with long scientific backgrounds. They've been testing audio for a long time and have fantastic systems.1. The idea of designing a power supply scheme around defeating ground loops is one way to go... | |
| Returning to audiophilism after 20 years: a little guidance would be nice :-) Hello and welcome, Pieter.You will find the passion level very high on this analog vs. digital question.I am fairly neutral on the question, and have watched the debates for a while.My own judgment is that digital is now very good and certainly so... | |
| Dedicated lines — how many? Other advice? @tvad I had that in my notes from before. On my list. |
