| Does an Audioquest Niagra 1200 limit amplifier dynamics? I have had a few (including the president of Earthquake Joseph Sahyoun directly) of different amp manufacturers (Simaudio, Bel Canto), tell me go directly to the outlet and bypass power conditioners with an amp. I had a few lengthy conversations w... | |
| Are advances in technology making speakers better? @grislybutter Excite - meaning appealing to a potential new market. Evoke - going back to the loyal base for the classic Dynaudio sound the loyalists have always loved. "Evoke-ing" the great memories of past Dynaudio lines... @curtdr thank... | |
| Are advances in technology making speakers better? @grislybutter you know what's funny? I posted about my experience on Excite vs Evoke and someone replied "maybe the name of the lines is even more appropriate than it would seem". BRILLIANT observation! I found that to be incredibly ironic and ins... | |
| Are advances in technology making speakers better? @jumia I'll share my story and hope this helps. 23+ years ago when I got into the higher end I auditioned, bought, sold many different speakers for my HT/Audio system (PSB, Definitve Tech, Paradigm, B&W). Once I was introduced to Dynaudio Audi... | |
| What selections do you play when showing off your system to others? Temptation - Diana Krall Spooky - David Sanborn On the Beach - Chris Rea I Can't Tell You Why - Diana Krall The Look of Love - Diana Krall A Venture - Yes It Keeps You Runnin - Doobie Bros | |
| Sonus Faber Lumina 5 vs Klipsch Forte IV @octobertime Though the Klipsch may sound warm side of neutral in the beginning I think you may find them lean more towards the bright side after long periods of listening especially. Just my personal opinion. I actually own a pair of the SF Sonet... | |
| Slight buzz through speakers Thanks again @straightwire. I did try the 2 prong cheater plug and the hum was still there. There is no noise coming from the Mac unit itself, but through the speakers. I am pretty convinced that somehow introducing the Mac with it's 3 prong plug ... | |
| Slight buzz through speakers Hello @straightwire and thanks so much for taking the time to send such a thorough and detailed reply😀! I currently have Comcast/Xfinity. Unfortunately, Verizon FIOS is not available in my area and because of my location (lots of woods/tall tr... | |
| Low buzzing through speaks So, @russ69 and @dpop the XLR ground lift adapters did not do anything, which I'm almost glad because wow were they a bi%$h to get in! The attenuators are arriving today via UPS. Let's see if they do anything. If not, I'm still going to try t... | |
| Low buzzing through speaks Thank you again all for staying the course with me😊! @davidrolon thanks for sharing your issue, my router is on another floor so it’s totally separate from the system.. @russ69 @dpop just an update, the ground lift adapter and attenuator are ... | |
| Low buzzing through speaks Thanks for clarifying @sleepwalker65 unfortunately that is so far over my skillset I wouldn't even know where to start. Are there any other already made XLR's that you know of that could solve this issue? | |
| Low buzzing through speaks Thank you @sleepwalker65 , so are you suggesting I go to RCA IC's? @dilatante great point on the fully balanced. I am pretty sure both the Mac and Sim are fully balanced, I know the Sim is actually and I have to believe the Mac is as well... | |
| Low buzzing through speaks Thank you @dilatante and definitely noted. You all make such great cases and like I said above because of so many thoughtful, helpful, insightful, and supportive replies from all of you the outcome is now secondary and if I live with it, I will sl... | |
| Low buzzing through speaks RCA’s should say | |
| Low buzzing through speaks @russ69 @dpop just read this in the Titan owner manual: The gain in each channel is the same among all balanced inputs and among all unbalanced inputs, but NOT the same among balanced and unbalanced inputs. Keep this in mind when level mat... |
