| How good is the crossover in your loudspeakers? My main crossover is on Yamaha's website (NS-5000). | |
| Tin Pan Alley and Thanks to You- which speakers play the tap on the snares the best? Yamaha NS-5000 has tonal accuracy 26hz-40khz using woofer/midrange/tweeter made from the same aramid fabric. It has the effect of a single driver with much broader frequency range. There's a Vandersteen model that does the same. The market trend ... | |
| We Need To Talk About Ones And Zeroes The other glaring variable in resolution is antique coaxial internet service versus fiber optic or microwave mesh. At my old house I was limited to coaxial and it was not pretty. The technician told me he had a job for life replacing coax connect... | |
| Do most people prefer tight bass or non tight bass? I would not frame the issue in those terms. Bass intensity and detail are more accurate. Does your subwoofer dovetail with your speakers' woofers? Do drums and stringed bass instruments sound the way they would in live small venue music? Or do y... | |
| Need help choosing speakers for Outlaw Audio receiver Hsu CCCB 8 is interesting. Under $800 for a pair. For the full $2K maybe Tekton Pendragon. | |
| Why most $3000 and lower DAC’s sound almost identical I never worry about it. I'm using the DAC onboard my Peachtree PreDac and I like it. There's a handful of DAC chip manufacturers everybody uses. It is not cutting edge technology. | |
| Integrated amp under $5k Peachtree Carina 300 has Hypex modules. | |
| Has anyone switched from Class AB/A to Class D? Was it better? Was it worse? I bought a Panasonic SA XR 50 with an Energy Star sticker on it for my transition to class D. Not a reference piece but it can do 5.1 signals and it never gets hot. Now I run B&O Ice Modules in two sizes: Red Dragon M500 monoblocks; Wyred4Soun... | |
| Class d amplification Wyred 4 Sound SX-1000 R are 1000 watt Ice Modules with nice power supplies and proprietary input boards. 3200 USD. Head room for your Blades. Gear depreciates precipitously so buy low to insulate yourself. | |
| Nomenclature for streaming I call mine Frank. | |
| Tannoy history and my unbelievable journey to and experience with vintage Tannoys Interesting. I am married to a Japanese girl so we bought Yamaha speakers. | |
| Matching a amplifier to speakers Wyred4Sound SX 1000R monoblocks ($3300) will make your Dynaudios sing. Headroom is what I refer to. Like a powerful car where you set the cruise control but the transmission doesn't kick down, even in the mountains. | |
| Picking speakers 3000-5000 budget To get the job done I would recommend Tekton Moabs with Wyred 4 Sound SX 1000R's and a preamp of your choice. Not the most congenial speaker brand but there is real independent thinking in the design. You might also like the GR Research Brute/Bull... | |
| How hot is too hot? Efficiency is inverse to heat in a device. If waste heat is a problem switch to nice class d. | |
| Chinese DAC's There are talented engineers around the world so I wouldn't use nationality as a criterion, except where the country has very high labor costs reflected in the price. Some producers may use counterfeit parts especially in the crossover. Caveat emp... |
