| Subwoofers.... one 10" or two 8"? Due to "group delay" sound impulse leaves the sub usually 8-10 msec later than it leaves the main, even though the electrical impulse hits the sub and the main at the same time. So must be aligned by ear. Using just distance measurement doesn't wo... | |
| Which Zu for you I keep looking a Zu but wonder about the 16 ohm impedance.Are all their speakers 16 ohm? Don't know that much about it, but am lead to believe that pushing a tube amp (Woo WA5 in my case) into such high resistance is hard on the transformer. Any t... | |
| help a Die hard ANALOG guy choose a budget CDP Check out ModWright Oppo if you want analog sound from a CD (SACD) player.

| Help wanted: Bass! Subs seem to get a bad rap because they are almost never integrated properly. It is crucial to get them time aligned with the main signal.You need a sub with continuous phase adjustment. And the right method for adjusting it. http://www.theabsolut... | |
| Is my room going to suck The auto EQ on your sub should help.Maybe not your cup of tea, but you can get $100,000 SQ from $8000 in a good headphone/amp setup. (Think Abyss and Woo WA5LE)No more 7 mo olds here, but the rest of the family is happier when I use my headphones ... | |
| Your not a serious audiophile I'd you have?????? You are not serious if you haven't bought your wife a nice car because you feel a little guilty about how much $$$ you have spent that she doesn't know about.You are not serious if you can remember "how much that cost" when your wife asks. | |
| Your not a serious audiophile I'd you have?????? You are not serious if you are unwilling to pay your staff $20 each time to intercept UPS before they get to the front door. (Staff was 100 % until $7000 Headtrip headphone amp showed last week.)You are not serious if you do not recognize "Headtri... |
