| Neutral or Detailed. You can't have both Ok, I cheated. I use neutral amps/pre with speakers which I built from scratch. But more importantly the amps allowed me go with active crossovers for these 3-ways, so I was able to 'dial out' crossover related roughness and nonlinearities and nat... | |
| Good Day for the Jazz Museum; Unlucky for me. Good story, sorry it did not play out for you, though. Oh well, at least you can visit the jazz museum. Maybe it's a lending library??...hey, just a thought! | |
| My music sounds brighter If you need to test, remove the DBX and see if the problem persists. | |
| My music sounds brighter I'm curious about the DBX. Where is it in the system and how is it wired. Does it need to be on for you to pass a signal thru to speakers? If so, I would look for a forgotten improper setting...or else it could now be ailing. DBX works first by in... | |
| Is It Possible? Welcome to the high end! Sell your $25k speakers and Enjoy! | |

| Natural sweet spot in your system. EquiCore 1200 or Monster Core 1200? | |
| Natural sweet spot in your system. Oh, and room reflections can be a contributing factor too, if your room is particularly live sounding. | |
| Natural sweet spot in your system. Several contributing factors here. Volume control non-linearities occur frequently, but seldom account for the severity of the problem you describe. But, it IS a matter of non-linearity, but more generalized throughout your entire system(s). Altho... | |
| What do people place on their platter for dust protection @geoffkait ,Oh, and yes, what you say about the forms of energies above being photons, I should likely stand corrected. But, what I think Alan is dealing with here is how all these things are interacting together in the home environment...the hows... | |
| What do people place on their platter for dust protection @geoffkait ,Asked Alan if he had a simple, direct answer as to why he says that positive ions affect AV quality. Alan has dealt with that topic, at least indirectly, with those of us in his facebook group before, but I'd never seen where he'd boil... | |
| What do people place on their platter for dust protection @geoffkait I do know that virtually all types of environmental electrical noise like EMR, EMI, etc (whether produced by AV gear or other sources) are positively charged ions. Even heat given off from a transformer is a form of EMR. Ever go into a ... | |
| What do people place on their platter for dust protection The "air purifier" would need to be just an air 'filter'. Purifiers work by releasing negative ions that are attracted to impurities in the air which are all of a positive charge. That has the effect of making the particulants "heavier than air" a... | |
| Wear glasses? Play cds? Own PEEPS? Thanks for that heads up. Been using Ultrabit Diamond too, so will try Peeps as well. | |
| Blocking the propaganda I'm more or less am in agreement with @whart . I started out in this hobby trying to find out which brands, if any, had the most prestige or mystique (not that I could afford them). Over the 4 decades since, I then tried focusing on the "basics" o... |
