| Sony XA5400ES lack of bass when new? "(Nothing below 100hz)"If you have confirmed this with measurements, the player is defective. Or are you speaker figuratively?Kal | |
| Has anyone heard the new OPPO BDP-83SE Ah. That does not make the older, original chipset "better." It just makes it more suitable/convenient for your selected mod. In fact, the new chipset is, in all ways, superior.Kal | |
| Suggestions for a pre w/ direct pass including sub A "pre" will not decode any of the digital formats you list. You mean a "pre/pro" or preamp/processor. The least expensive of these that will meet all your functional criteria are the Onkyo 886 or similar Integra 9.9. These are being replaced by n... | |
| Has anyone heard the new OPPO BDP-83SE 11-16-09: TbgKr4, It doesn't use "The OPPO BDP-83 Special Edition uses the state-of-the-art Sabre32 family of Digital-to-Analog Converters (DAC) from ESS Technology. "I do not understand this or the point.Kal | |
| Crossover Tutorial Well, I guess all the positions have been heard from. Ask Albert, read a book. | |
| Crossover Tutorial You cannot choose one. No off-the-shelf electronic crossover can replace the built-in one. To do this job, the crossover needs to be custom designed for the speaker and this is not a task for a beginner. I suggest that, for the moment, you leave i... | |
| Suggestions 4 surround processor w/newest formats. 11-15-09: JoysjaneStill haven't decided fellas.Have been reading up and it sounds like the Marantz does al the new format decoding itself. Might just end up letting it do it's job and bypass the whole processor gig.What say you's?Depends. How's th... | |
| Has anyone heard the new OPPO BDP-83SE 11-15-09: TbgI have the non-SE version coming and this is by choice, as this version has the better chip, at least as used in the Exemplar modification which is what I am getting.Better chip? Which chip?Kal | |
| 2 Channel Dual Output Pre-Amp WITH Sub output?? 11-15-09: Djs73183It looks like the P7 is a multi-channel pre-amp, again I am only looking for a 2 channel.Yes but it does both.Also the 2100 only has 1 set of main outs, I am looking for 2 sets of main outs, and a sub out. Use Y-connectors after ... | |
| 2 Channel Dual Output Pre-Amp WITH Sub output?? Parasound 2100 or P7. (I don't know what you mean by "CRAZY expensive" since you don't say anything quantitative.)EQ usually goes between preamp and amp(s) or in a processor loop.Kal | |
| odd number of channels Wkraft, there is no missing product category. 4, 5 and 6 channel bundled interconnects exist. I have sets from Harmonic Tech and Crystal Cable. OTOH, this is not an issue since you can use multiples of 2 and 3 channel sets. | |
| How do you correlate the SPL with db There is no absolute way unless you calibrate the Behringer since dB is a relative measure. That said, the RTA should be scaled in dB as well although probably not the same dB.However, all this is relative and that may be all you need. Filter magn... | |
| how good is oppo bdp 83 on music from c.d.'s? And include how you have it configured with the rest of your system.Kal | |
| Using OPPO BDP-83 - USB drive interface I have not done a direct comparison as I used the USB for downloaded music files but they were excellent and I suspect they are equal to CD. My movie experience was superficial and included only some videos of my grandchildren. Quality of the orig... | |
| Using OPPO BDP-83 - USB drive interface I've done it. It works.Kal |
