Pre-amp Suggestion Yes, tube amps are thought to sound warm, and silver cables are bright. Really? Because silver is shiny? Jason is on to something here. | |
Please Help Weed Them Out The Focal Stellias were on my list, but I then read about quality issues and having to send them back to France for repair. I am directing my interests on Audeze. I was wondering which of these (LCD-2C or LCD-XC) has more bass? | |
$16 Dimmer...... Oh, I read this wrong. I thought someone found a good $16 dinner. | |
Please Help Weed Them Out I do need a high isolation rig, as I usually have to play headphones while others are watching TV. Even with closed backs I can still hear the TV at quieter spots on most tracks. It's not an absolute, but preferred. | |
Please Help Weed Them Out OK, so I got a set of AKG K371. I like them a lot, and only $160 from Amazon! I originally got a set of Hihiman HE-R9, but I thought they were too dull sounding and very bulky. These AKG' are great, and I just ordered a set of Dekoni Choice Leathe... | |
Audeze - 3 conductors per side? OK, I got my answer on Google Images. I know, I've been living in a cave in Tibet. So it seems they join pins 1 and 3 to ground making it really only 2 conductors to the driver. | |
Audeze - 3 conductors per side? Yes, I understand an XLR connection at line level will be 3 conductors just like gdnrob says, but to connect to a speaker driver, wouldn't it be just 2 conductors? | |
-20 DB Volume Measurment No, it's more a reference of the input level. Your preamp is telling you that at -20db it is lowering the input signal by that amount. It is independent of your amp. | |
Please Help Weed Them Out I understand your warning, but the Benchmark puts in a separate THX Headphone AMP of very good quality. At least good enough to be called decent. | |
Please Help Weed Them Out I also see the Sundara closed back headphones for $229 Some say they're lacking in bass. Can anyone offer an opinion on them? Thanks | |
Please Help Weed Them Out What about the HE-R9? They're only $109 Are they any good? | |
Velodyne DD15 - worth repairing the plate amp? I sent my plate amp in for repair (DD15) and it only worked for another year. I wasn't into paying $400 per year to keep it going, so I moved on. SVS has some nice stuff with free shipping. | |
Question: Sub with Fs 54, but response remains above 95dB down to 27: How can I best build This is a bit of a story, but who else but you guys would appreciate this? A while ago my friend built a big coffee table sub with an 18" down firing driver. He got it all completed and wired up. On top of the table/sub he had a large heavy glass ... | |
Question: Sub with Fs 54, but response remains above 95dB down to 27: How can I best build Just be careful to brace this 7 cubic foot box. This will be a big box, over 2 feet in all directions, if a cube. Without a lot of strong bracing you will loose a lot of driver energy to flexing the enclosure. | |
