| My Apologies to Miller Carbon Nice to see MC get positive feedback as opposed to the ridicule he usually gets. Nice to see him get positive feedback he's earned as opposed to the ridicule he usually... | |
| Changing Interesting how more than one sense adds up for you. I know that some people also appreciate the tactile qualities of vinyl -- the feel of the records, their weight, the friction of the needle, etc. I'm not being facetious at all, here. It's just ... | |
| How many of us are truly diversified "Meh"? He has enough energy to type three letters not a few more? To such low energy I say "meh."EBM -- let me guess-- MAGICO, ASAP!!!! | |
| How do you know what your weakest link is? OP, you’re a bad boy for not sitting still while the dude with the Einstein avatar lured you in for another cut and paste lecture about how "everything matters."You asked a straightforward and carefully worded question and you deserve a reasonable... | |
| How many of us are truly diversified Variety is the spice of life. I like the word variety but I have no problem with "diversify." There have been times in my life when I have hewed to too narrow a path in all kinds of ways -- eating the same kinds of foods, watching the same kinds o... | |
| New Raven Audio CeLest Monitor coming this fall. I'd love to hear about them! Is Raven going to pull off a two-way capable of being powered by their lower watt tube amps?More importantly, can they possibly compete with Tekton? (Inside joke for our Tekton fanboy who, for some reason, didn't buy a... | |
| How many of you are digital only systems? All digital here. Got my modded out R2R dac, good streaming rates, and a carefully kitted room. No need to change. And I’ve heard vinyl, grew up on vinyl. Not really worth it for me, and I’m not alone. Those who insist we're deficient because of t... | |
| Refurbished CXC Transports +1 fuzztone. I love my CXC | |
| Streaming Transport without DAC- few choices If I didn't have a Blusound Node, I'd do a Raspberry Pi. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fX7NSaAKYU&ab_channel=TheHansBeekhuyzenChannelhttps://darko.audio/2020/01/raspberry-pi-audio-streaming-101/ | |
| What process did you use to integrate multiple subwoofers for 2 channel listening? @mapman Interesting. I just listened to a couple of podcasts with Duncan/Darren and they are sub integration fanatics. They said that no full range speaker, even the Wilsons, are immune from some benefit from at least one sub.Yes, I've moved them... | |
| What process did you use to integrate multiple subwoofers for 2 channel listening? QUESTION: Bit of a side question -- At present, I have my REL hooked up to BOTH mono block amps' speaker terminals -- left and right. This has worked really well in providing left/right sides to my single REL.However, now I have 3 subs -- two Ryth... | |
| What process did you use to integrate multiple subwoofers for 2 channel listening? @djones51 @soundsspectacular Yes, I listen nearly near field. I bought speakers based on how they sounded in this space. My stands are at 20" (not the usual, higher 24 or 27") and I sit a bit lower, too. I have carpet and ceiling absorption, too. | |
| Class D amps seem poised to take over. Then what? @douglas_schroeder I especially enjoyed this paragraph, both for pointing out a psychological cause of instant resistance to Class D, as well as the variety of stakes in the way of trying something new.And I don't hear you arguing against a variet... | |
| What process did you use to integrate multiple subwoofers for 2 channel listening? These are great suggestions and I really appreciate them. For the moment one thing is absolutely certain : with 6 1/2 foot ceilings there is no way that I am going to get a great result even with the technology you are mentioning. At this point m... | |
| Class D amps seem poised to take over. Then what? They will fade away for you, it sounds like. That's cool.But seriously, I'm not sure the line of progress is as singular as this. As long as there are different sounds people enjoy, there will be other amp types to suit those tastes. Just as there... |
