| Little help with REL subwoofers, please? @m-db it surprised me to be honest. I figured it would measure better than the specs, just cause my room tends toward bass heavy, but not as low as it did. Tbh, I don’t know how accurate the measurements are but they seem to be consistent. | |
| Little help with REL subwoofers, please? I don't know how small your space is, but mine is small (12x10) and I just put in two REL T/5x subs. They were easy to integrate with the Neutrik Speakon connectors. They move enough air to shake the floor and my listening chair when I turn it u... | |
| Why Music Is Good For The Brain Interesting article. Music makes me feel happy, sad and everything in between! Nothing better than listening to a song I’ve heard many times and hearing some new nuance that I had never noticed before. | |
| Subwoofer Run the left line of the y cable to the left sub, the right line to the right sub. | |
| Subwoofer If it’s the true subwoofer junior you also have speaker level inputs and can connect directly to those using the left speaker level input on both subs. So right speaker output from source to left speaker input on right sub and left speaker output... | |
| Hermes DDC + Wandla DAC Sorry just reread your post and saw that you did cycle through the Hermes pin settings. Can you cycle thru the Wandla pin settings? In the video I attached above Alvin said something about some hdmi cables not working at all with the Denafrips a... | |
| Hermes DDC + Wandla DAC You might need to cycle through the I2S pin settings. See if this helps: https://www.denafrips.com/config-i2s | |
| Aurender N150 vs N200 @lalitk I would think about picking that one up myself if it was in black! | |
| Aurender N150 vs N200 With the level of components you have I would get the N200 and upgrade the DAC to a similar level. The Pontus II is a great DAC (I have one with a Hermes DDC) but I believe @audphile1 and @lalitk are correct about it being a bottleneck relative t... | |
| High End System Building. How important is the matching, cabling and room? Thoughts ? Most dealers are like audiophiles here with 40 amplifiers behind them and 50 dac and as much speakers experience , they know the gear , but they dont know much about the importance of acoustics ( i dont spoke about a few panels here ) and about e... | |
| High End System Building. How important is the matching, cabling and room? Thoughts ? The "dealer" would rarely tell you that...he may be all about "matching" expensive crap with other expensive crap and constantly capitalizing on the poor dude’s constant disgruntlement. @deep_333 i have a hard time believing this. I’m sure th... | |
| High End System Building. How important is the matching, cabling and room? Thoughts ? I don’t think anyone here has stated that anything matters more than the room. What do you do when you can’t do anything about the room or very little or there are things you can do nothing about? Getting another room is likely not a solution fo... | |
| High End System Building. How important is the matching, cabling and room? Thoughts ? @mihorn I agree the room matters a great deal and I don't mean for this discussion to devolve into whether or not it does, just that some folks can't do a lot about fixing it. The OP is one of those who cannot. @calvinj My room is not optimal ... | |
| High End System Building. How important is the matching, cabling and room? Thoughts ? my listening room isn’t optimal so I have done a lot of work with everything else to get a great sound that I like. I can’t do much about my room. @calvinj i figured you were saying something like that. Fortunately, I’ve been able to get my ro... | |
| High End System Building. How important is the matching, cabling and room? Thoughts ? @deep_333 i don’t know what you read but that’s not how I interpreted his last post. Room matters a lot, if you can’t fix the room you have to work with what you have. Getting components that play well together would probably sound better in a s... |
