| Tact 2.2XP for room correction "proof of concept" Marty, I am using the SVS Sub EQ unit which is similar to the Velodine. Problem is my mains run at full range through an all analog signal path, while the subs go through an A/D/A conversion. I have a suspicion the resulting time delay differences... | |
| 2 channel priority in HT Processor...who's is best I'm thinking of the solution suggested by Edorr and Soix, and from time to time by Kal. If the XLR output of a SACD player were passed through a preamp and input via analog XLR to an Integra would the sound I hear be that of the preamp or the Inte... | |
| What's the best unipivot to arm ever made? The original "Audio and Design" arm with the arcuate mercury baths and designed by John Wright of IMF fame. I bought one directly from him decades ago and used it with great pleasure over a long period. It was superior in materials and constructio... | |
| OPPO BD95 output question It does but you should buy the Oppo BDP-93, not the 95, as you will not be using the DACs and analog outputs which are the only advantage of the 95 over the 93.Kal | |
| Cary 11a vs Anthem D2 "The Cary 11a recognizes PCM output from an Oppo 93 as DSD, thus there is no bass management. Does the D2 have a similar problem?" I have not found any device other than the Cary that does so. | |
| Which surround algorithm is better? I have never heard any surround algorithm that is universally applicable. Some are fairly benign (Anthem-Logic) and others are usefully tweakable (TriField) but, ultimately, every one is caught out by one recording or another. If I feel the need t... | |
| incorporate 2 channel amp into multichannel system Correct but not likely in my experience. Also, easily repaired.Kal | |
| room analysis software RTA Lite is cute, handy and completely ineadequate for this.Kal | |
| incorporate 2 channel amp into multichannel system That's one way. The simpler is to connect the L/R outputs of the SSP to the Creek, set the latter at a mid-level of the VC rotation and mark it so you can repeat that setting accurately. Then you run the SSP's setup/calibration for all channels vi... | |
| room analysis software These are the low/reasonably priced options, imho:RoomEQ Wizard (must add mic and preamp)R&D (must add mic and preamp)XTZ (complete hardware/software package)Omnimic(complete hardware/software package)Kal | |
| Processor upgrade from Integra 9.8? I am here.It is impossible for me to know how the 80.2/3 would sound compared to anyone's analog 2 channel setup, even my own (since it is in a different house). The Carys have all had excellent analog sound but, imho, fail as adequate digital MCH... | |
| incorporate 2 channel amp into multichannel system Gentlemen:What you have described is the procedure for emulating a HT Bypass when that function is not provided. It is an input on the 2 channel preamp with an accurately fixed gain into which one feeds the L/R line level outputs from the HT or MC... | |
| McCormack DNA-1 runs hot 100 degrees is only warm, not hot. Normal in my experience with my Rev. A DNA-1.Kal | |
| Network VS..... What are "networked cables?" | |
| incorporate 2 channel amp into multichannel system Does the Creek have an HT Bypass function? If so, that is what will do this for you.Kal |
