| Decisions, decisions, decisions If you are considering Vandersteen IIs, you should really consider used Treos CT or Non-CT. Mine are beautiful, the highs are extended, and the lows are a pleasant surprise. My prior speakers in this system were Vandersteen 2CIs. | |
| New Dedicated Line - Almost No improvement I agree with giving the system more time. I had a new sub panel, wiring etc installed in my basement while we were in the process of finishing it. I took the system I had been listening to for months and moved it into the basement and it sounded h... | |
| cheapest cable upgrade ever Thanks for the tip! It works really well in my system. I will wait a week and then remove them to make sure. Has anyone tried this on an HDMI cable? | |
| Wilson Sabrina (not X), Sonus Faber Nova 2, or Vandersteen Treo CT When I decided to replace my Vandersteen 2ci speakers Johnny R recommended used 2012 Treo Non-CT speakers over new Vandersteen 2 speakers. In my room the Treo speakers go to 23 HZ before output declines (measured using REW and an Umik-1). In fact,... | |
| JTR Speakers, why so much? I have never heard them, but I considered purchasing three for my basement theater before the last price increases. I hesitated because I knew purchasing the front three would have led to me purchasing their surrounds also. I really couldn't ... | |
| JTR Speakers, why so much? Have you seen what’s inside of them? | |
| Bass sensation like a loud car system in home? @yukispier, I have experienced this type of bass in an upstairs room using four far field subs and one near field sub. The subs were JL audio, two with dual drivers and three with single drivers. The speakers were the large Klipsch Palladiums. The... | |
| Speaker sensitivity vs SQ Great conversation. I think some of you would really be interested in JTR speakers. They were mentioned earlier in the thread. JTR does pro audio as well as some high sensitivity home speakers and subwoofers. I am looking forward to hearing them b... | |
| New speakers. New room. Wonderful room! Thanks for sharing the room and your experience! | |
| Lots of bass at walls, lack of bass in center of room/listening position @Smodtactical, I suggest you purchase a Minidsp. You have already invested a significant amount in your system. The Non-Hd version of the Minidsp is $100. The HD version of the Minidsp is even better and can do more. It appears you are using REW... | |
| Tidal/OPPO streaming issue One of my players is hard wired, the other is wireless. Both have the same issue. When two people are trying to use the same account in Tidal, it will pause one of them. This is a different issue. | |
| Tidal/OPPO streaming issue I am having the same issue. I read on another site it might be a licensing issue. I am not sure what I will do from here, I have a 103 and a 105. | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? @noble100 if you are willing to invest some time learning REW, I think it would really help you understand what is happening in your room. I have experimented with the software but I need to invest more time. The friend that suggested I buy my cur... | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? @noble100, I apologize for the delay in replying to this thread. The Mini-Dsp helps optimize the information on ANY audio format. It can be used in a variety of ways, one of which is optimizing up to four sub-woofers. If using the Mini-Dsp fo... | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? @noble100 I agree the priorities of any system can be very different. The priorities of the person mixing the music or sound track also come into play. The bottom line is we each spend our time, and hard earned money where it matters to us most. ... |
