| Maybe being discerning isn't that good for us? I have a realtor who has sent me hundreds of listings of homes sold in my area and I am totally amazed I have yet to see one home with pictures showing two speakers standing in one room of their house. I have also seen only a few where they have ... | |
| I'm interested in hearing what "the best" systems sound like, where to go? I think it depends on where you live. It is always a good idea to spend a few days at a good audio show. However, many of them will bring some of their less expensive speakers because they assume most people will spend the money. They should ha... | |
| Moving up from a Node 2i melvinjames,I stream Tidal on my Bluesound Node 2i and I have never seen my screen laid out like this. I will need to find out how to use all it offers. Still hope they come out with a new Bluesound that can hi res video/audio to look at concert... | |
| Moving up from a Node 2i jeenan90,I would agree with you. The ProJect is a cheap DAC. However, when you connect a DAC to the Bluesound Node 2i, it breaks up the complete unfold of MQA. I don't know why MQA sounds better. For some reason I sense a larger sound stage an... | |
| Moving up from a Node 2i I ended up buying a Bluesound Node 2i and the dealer talked me into buying a ProJect S2 DAC and connecting it with an Audioquest Carbon coax cable. In doing so you lose 9/10 of the MQA unfold. So I unhooked the DAC and played MQA recordings by s... | |
| Wilson's Chronosonic XVX loudspeaker over 3/4 of a million US dollars Why wouldn't you place your components on a stereo rack. My wife would kill me if I ever thought of making a room look like that. | |
| Selling on Audiogon I had a good experience. However, why would anyone sell something using PayPal? | |
| Badly recorded albums needing upgrading Nothing like the sound of snap, crackle and pop. | |
| Comparison of latest DAC chips I have a Bluesound Node 2i and purchased a ProJect S2 DAC and added it to my system and found I liked the Bluesound played better by itself. I stream Tidal and when I connected the DAC to my Bluesound using Audioquest Carbon digital coax, it does... | |
| LP made from a digital master recording... I don't know why so many still listen to vinyl. I am not in to hearing the noise of the needle tracking in the groove. I think CD's sound much better. They sound much crisper in my opinion. However, I now can't understand why anyone would both... | |
| Speaker recommendations 10 to 30k and no beryllium That's a huge price range. That's like saying I am looking for a car between and Chevrolet and a Mercedes. Which one would be best.If you choose soft dome tweeter, they could destroy much easier than beryllium. Ribbon would also be as fragile.H... | |
| Low-sensitivity speakers — What's special about them? I would go with the SALK speakers. When you talk to Jim Salk tell him Larry Edwards from Denver sent you, His speakers are just incredible. You will love Jim. | |
| Adjusting speaker positioning. What, if anything, to expect? I measured the distance from the back wall and side walls to measure exactly the same and then pointed the toe in to reach my listening position. This instantly changed things. I noticed my mid range and tweeters really settled down. | |
| Adjusting speaker positioning. What, if anything, to expect? I went to Soundings in Denver and they demoed master setting speakers. The sound is very noticeable. What's nice is you don't have to sit in the sweet spot, which is nice when you have guests over to listen to music and cocktails. I moved my sp... | |
| Should I sell my DAC When I went to the dealer to hear a demo of the Bluesound Node 2i and really liked MQA. The dealer suggest adding a ProJect S2 DAC connected by Audioquest Carbon coax cable. When they did an A/B I chose the Bluesound played by itself. I for som... |
