MC cartridge for Clearaudio Concept 1600$
So many praising reviews about Hana ML one might get the impression that this is the perfect cartridge  
MC cartridge for Clearaudio Concept 1600$
@sls883 so how can you describe Hana's sound signature?     
MC cartridge for Clearaudio Concept 1600$
@neonknight Thank you for advice! Not sure AT will suit my tonearm because it has compliance 25 10-6 cm/dyne (10 Hz), too much. And neutral and refined is good, but I'd prefer emotional and energetic with punchy low end. If Hana has more "meat" it... 
Separates vs Integrated
Maybe I will say a strange idea for the forum, but try to look at this topic from the point of view of your life. We will never find "that very sound", because we listen to different music and our perception of sound changes with age. But if you a... 
My list of compact subs with room correction.
@russ69 what exactly you did not like in that sound? Once I decided to get rid of reflections in my room, bought sound absorbing panels and installed them on a wall behind me. The sound became strictly right, but absolutely dead. Dry and lifeless....

Adding to the list Syzygy Acoustics SLF870, 12" subwoofer for 1000$ with app and room correction. Interesting device.  
New speakers for a new start?
I join everyone who recommends Vandersteen. They fill with great airy sound whole apartment so you can listen to them even from the kitchen. And I can tell you, that I listen to death and black metal, also hardcore and this music is not a problem ... 
My list of compact subs with room correction.
@mijostyn Looks like an option. It has "five-position selector to tune the KC92 for various positions within the room". It plays down to 11Hz as they say, like previous KF92, but KF92 played well down to 14Hz according to tests, which is anyway gr... 
My list of compact subs with room correction.
@zlone You are welcome. Room correction is not possible without DSP processor.  DSP is a digital signal processing system. That's why all in the list have it. It allows you to fine-tune the settings of your sub, not just gain and crossover, DSP ca... 
Rythmik Audio F12/F12-400 vs JL Audio E-Sub e112
@damusicguy okay, looks like JL is not a best option. I would like to have Perlisten but they are too expensive for me now. Maybe if I could find 10" used, but no one sells them.  
Do different speaker stands can really make a big sound improvement?
I always thought that important purpose of the stands is to remove vibration from the speakers themselves from the floor. But if we consider that the problem is also that vibration from the stands is transmitted back to the speakers, then it is lo... 
Rythmik Audio F12/F12-400 vs JL Audio E-Sub e112
@deep_333 for the price that DS1200/1000 sells for, there is also Martin Logan Dynamo 1100X, which I find very interesting because of Anthem room correction system it has. But they all are over budjet unfortunately.   
Rythmik Audio F12/F12-400 vs JL Audio E-Sub e112
@sounds_real_audio Hello! I have just bought a 300W amp (for 4 Ohms) but haven’t tried it yet, I have to change 110v to 230v first. I’m sure the sound will become better! @james633 Thank you for warning! I’ve never seen any reviews like that, eve... 
amazing transformation...how?
Oh, and you can also assume that everything seemed so high and sharp compared to your previous cartridge and turnable. And after a year and a half, that sound was already forgotten and you looked at the new system with an unbiased eye. And two mo... 
amazing transformation...how?
Hello! According to you, the sound was so terrible that it is unlikely that the player itself could have had such an effect. The cartridge may be special if it was in unsatisfactory condition. But if you haven’t touched it all this time, then it’s...
