| Upgrade my DAC or buy more weed? Excellent question audiofreak31. I had a similar experience recently with the Allman Brothers at the Fillmore kickn' it live to near concert level dbs. I could almost smell the weed wafting through the Fillmore even before I lit up. It was at that... | |
| Luxman d-08u vs berkeley reference 2 dac luxmancl38, Wow, $3295 is less than I was expecting. Any word on the price of the new D-10X? | |
| Luxman d-08u vs berkeley reference 2 dac photon46, I am a member of the Suncoast Audio Society and have purchased most of my current system from Mike of Suncoast Audio as well. It's Mike who I'll most likely be relying on for a Luxman audition. I also heard the same Luxman / Magico syste... | |
| Luxman d-08u vs berkeley reference 2 dac photon46, I'm considering the D-06u or D-08u as well and I have something of the opposite concern regarding the Luxman, and that is I'm afraid of it sounding too laid back, "rolled off", McIntosh warm? I haven't heard it in my system yet however w... | |
| Shunyata Alpha NR "Settling In Process"? tvad, Yep, as strange as that may sound, my Shunyata jumpers are indeed directional. I took ghosthouse's recommendation and went with the Nordost method and sure enough, i did hear a slight increase in resolution. | |
| Shunyata Alpha NR "Settling In Process"? Thanks again ghosthouse, My speakers are B&W 805 D3s (small listening room), bi-wireable and I use Shunyata jumpers which are directional. I'll give the Nordost method a shot and see what I get. | |
| Shunyata Alpha NR "Settling In Process"? Thanks ghosthouse, that does help. I heard the same dark and rolled characteristics you described. With around 20 hrs. on them now now, they do appear to be opening up a bit more but certainly not to the extent I'm expecting. I spoke with Shunyata... | |
| The best speaker for a small room...at any price point. I had the Joseph Audio Pulsar 2 Graphene's in a small room (11.5 x 12) and they did not work for me. Put them up for sale here and quickly realized that when it comes to high end monitors, it is definitely a buyers market. Couldn't give them away.... | |
| The best speaker for a small room...at any price point. In my seemingly never ending quest to find what speakers work best in my small room, with my equipment, out are the Joseph Audio Pulsars, Joseph audio Pulsar 2 Graphenes and now the ATC SCM 11s. On to the Jean Marie Reynaud Bliss Jubilees! Anyone ... | |
| ATC SCM7 vs SCM11 ? Which one would you choose? I would also add that the ATCs need solid state gear. | |
| The best speaker for a small room...at any price point. I'm currently listening to the ATC SCM 11s in my 11.5 x 12 room and while the sealed design has effectively addressed the bass boom issue, I would definitely recommend these speakers be mated to solid state gear. | |
| Joseph Audio Pulsar 2 Graphene Placement & Break-In? prof,The new version 2 is better across all parameters. A more refined midrange, with beautiful, delicate, crystalline like high frequencies integrated perfectly with a deeper range into the lower registers. While the originals had these qualities... | |
| Joseph Audio Pulsar 2 Graphene Placement & Break-In? audioal11,Yes, the Pulsar 2s represent a significant upgrade over the originals. My issue with the 2s is my 11.5 x 12 listening room, which the 2s are simply too much speaker for. | |
| The best speaker for a small room...at any price point. IMHO, if you need room treatments or a sub to make a particular pair of speakers work in our room, you have the wrong pair of speakers. | |
| ATC SCM7 vs SCM11 ? Which one would you choose? I'm currently using the ATC ACM 11 in a 11.5 X 12 room to great effect. I would recommend the 11s over the 7 for your room. |
