| Audio Diversity - What is it? Sonic priorities are important as well. For some, a well placed image is critical - and they'll gladly give up low frquency extension for it. Other are unwilling to give up the lows, but may be willing to compromise on image.For some, dynamics are... | |
| Monster Power conditioners. Anyone using one? I have a monster PowerBar 2100 and I think it does a great job - totally cleaned up the unbelievable amount of noise on my power lines. I use it for source components only - not for my power electronics.Monster, unfortunately, suffers some of the ... | |
| How many CD/LPs do you need? You know the difference between an audiophile and a music lover? A music lover's record (CD) collection is worth more than his stereo system. (I'm afraid I'm still an audiophile, but I'm working on fixing that). | |
| Tweeter hiss? Tooter - a question:Does your integrated have tone controls? If so, have you got the treble turned up. Many amps will exhibit hiss when treble is elevated.Just thought I'd check... | |
| Difference between white and pink noise Pink noise is equal sound pressure for each octave, white noise is equal sound pressure at each frequency.Remember, as you go up in pitch, there are twice as many frequencies in each succesive octave (between 220 and 440 Hz, vs. 440 and 880 Hz, fo... | |
| Stinkin' Meridian "System Remote" I use a Pronto Neo for everything and love it. | |
| Which processor to combine 2 channel/ 5.1 ? You didn't mention a price, but I love my Meridian 568 - so clean, great 2-channel as well as multi-channel music settings (you might get hooked). Check it out. | |
| Electrical lines from fusebox to Amps--Upgrading? I, too would appreciate a copy of the email. | |
| Top Ten Speakers of All Time? Although they're small, Mission 770's were a true classic. I always regretted not buying a pair when I had the chance - sweetest little 2-way ever made. | |
| Hi end audio who cares I am very lucky - my wife doesn't really care about the sound much (she can hear the difference, but doesn't spend much time listening), but she's very supportive of my audio hobby, allowing me to spend large $$$ because she knows how much pleasur... | |
| Picking the right amp... I just saw a Meridian 558 5-channel x 200 watt amp go for 2550 on eBay. Keep your eyes open! | |
| Receiver vs Processor Dklap,Presumably, the answer is sound (and video switching) quality. Why are some 2 channel audio receivers $129 while audiophiles spend thousands of dollars - often for products with FEWER features? The same reason.If the higher priced units don'... | |
| Tandberg tape decks My first Tandberg was a 330. Later I traded up to a 3014, then a 3014A. The 3014A is, without question, the best cassette deck ever produced. (I A/B'd it with the Dragon for hours - no comparison.)The 330 is not as good as either the 3014 or Drago... | |
| Checking the quality of your AC Shasta,I have to disagree on the "overhyped" dirty power issue. I live in a residential suburb - our voltage is constant and reliable, but my sound so significantly improved after I installed a power conditioner I had to do some testing.I have an ... |
