| What is the average dealer mark up? And then the dealers wonder why their sales are so low? You would think they would advertise to a highly selected mailing list. The data they collect for mailing lists can be very narrow. Andy then they only carry a few speakers and assume thei... | |
| Audio discounts during Coronavirus jrwaudio,I have ab OPPO player and I can't see why anyone would bother playing CD's anymore when you can just sit on your sofa and streams huge volumes of music as hi res quality. My CD's sit in the drawer. You would have to spend a fortune to b... | |
| Magico vs the world Whatever you do, don't ever suggest Paridigm. They might be too good. I think their 85F Prestige speakers are incredible for the money. I still think you can never beat the sound quality of the SALK Sone3 Encore's. However, they sell direct an... | |
| New Yamaha integrated amps Why would anyone buy a Yamaha amp when you can purchase a Parasound integrated. I wonder why manufacturers promote watts when the real spec should be current? Watts are a bigger number. | |
| How far away from your speakers are you? I would Google master setting speakers. Not sure where you live, but find a dealer who specializes in this. Soundings here in Denver is one of the best in the country.I have copied and pasted an article to help you. Soundings demonstrated this ... | |
| Question on how DAC’s work... jassman7,I just read your reply. Are you saying if I connected my Bluesound Node 2i to an external DAC using digital coax, I could achieve complete unfold of MQA? When I attached a ProJect S2 DAC to my Bluesound, the bass sounded thinner. I thi... | |
| Bass at your ears? (Bass imaging) Meant to ask. What do you mean by bass at your ears? I thought you want to create distance and sound stage in order to visualize the artist playing between the speakers. If you want bass at your ears buy a good pair of headphones and then good ... | |
| Bass at your ears? (Bass imaging) I like the way REL designed their high level connection. They really act as an additional woofer and they are not detectable if you set them up right. It is also important to play two instead of one for room balance and for staging. All you wan... | |
| Is it all worth it? I cannot understand why anyone plays vinyl when there is streaming technology available? No noise from the stylus tracking on a vinyl record. With all the hi res recordings they have to sound better. Unless, people love to hear the noise from p... | |
| These seem a bit pricey $$$ What really astounds me is I receive real estate listings of homes in my area every day and after viewing about 400 homes, I have yet to see two speakers sitting in any room of a house. They show pictures of expensive entertainment furniture with... | |
| Question on how DAC’s work... The way I understand things is if you attach an external DAC to a Bluesound Node 2i via digital COAX, you only get 1/10 the unfold of MQA. Is there a better streamer than a Bluesound that can completely unfold MQA? If so, which steamers sound si... | |
| A secondary system to enjoy. Why not install speakers in the ceiling throughout the house and attach them to an amplifier so you can hear music throughout your home? Here is where a Bluesound comes in handy. | |
| Why is There Not More Consolidation in Audio? I think we are going to see many audio manufacturers go out of business due to the Corona Virus. People are unemployed and they are going to choose to eat rather than buy stereo gear. Hope this does not happen.This industry was barely alive befo... | |
| what's your opinion on the magazine 'stereo review'?? I think most if not all stereo magazines are paid by the manufacturers to review their equipment based on how much money they give to the magazine or to the person writing the reviews. They often will sell their gear at cost to the writer in orde... | |
| Fairly new to streaming. Where to start? Forgot to mention. Hard wire CAT6. Eliminates wireless streaming issues. However, depends how far source is from you system. |
