Room correction - what device works best? Thanks Al, Roscoe. I learnt something already.Cheers! | |
Room correction - what device works best? Al,Yes, your speakers are truly of fine craftmanship. I've never heard them, but always found them very appealing from what I read.Are you sure the DEQX can achieve time alignment among the drivers if you are to keep the passive crossovers in ther... | |
Room correction - what device works best? Almarg,What a great post. Great synthesis of the potential of a DEQX.Are you planning to go active with your speakers, getting rid of the passive crossovers?You might recall I thought about the DEQX HDP-4 (at the time) and eventually opted for Aco... | |
Is it really useless Upscaling 16/44.1 music to 24 I think if I had the puter in the same room (i would blow my brains out)I assume you mean because of the noise the computer makes? Fair point, with standard computers. My computer is designed to be in the listening room, only playing music. It use... | |
which sub to get I agree with Mapman and Bob Reynolds. And also remember when I was thinking of adding a first sub to my stereo and had no measuring capabilities - or understanding, for that matter. So can relate to the OP maybe getting overwhelmed.I started addin... | |
Room correction - what device works best? I grew interested in acoustics and having a technical background and DIY inclinations, studied quite a bit, got a measurement mic, mic amp, REW software, and built a number of tube traps, Helmholtz resomators, etc. also worked a fair bit on layout... | |
USB DAC question for neutral setup. Please help. How about the Wyred4Sound, or iFi? Take a look.Alternatively, a Benchmark DAC1 is likely in that price range and rather lively. An older option, but might be a good one nevertheless. | |
Is it really useless Upscaling 16/44.1 music to 24 I didn't care for JRiver upsampling either. That is why I feed the DAC at the file's native resolution. However, I realize there are many factors to consider. Some DACs might sound better at higher sampling frequencies, some computers might be noi... | |
Is it really useless Upscaling 16/44.1 music to 24 Trcns,You've gotten very good feedback. I certainly agree with Dtc, and also adding this as another example.My PC audio goes from a highly optimized PC running Windows Server 2012 in core mode, with Audio Optimizer, JRiver, into Audiophilleo with ... | |
High value, high efficiency speakers for SET amps Thanks Ralph. I asked Coincident's Israel Blume about Dynamo's THD and he replied "1% @ 8W , .8% at 1 watt"Seems the difference in THD from 12.5% power (1W/8W) to full power is not much. Should I conclude there is no much gain from running this am... | |
High value, high efficiency speakers for SET amps Thanks Charles. Your amps look fascinating, but out of my budget and space constraints for my configuration as 4 monoblocks would be required. The Dynamo looks appealing from cost and space perspective, and obviously from the reports about the way... | |
usb dac Run some searches in the pc forum. This has been widely discussed many times. It's almost like asking if an MM cartridge would work... | |
High value, high efficiency speakers for SET amps Mapman: Not sure that is what Atmasphere was referring to. He doesn't tend to state the obvious.Charles: I realize many factors come into play. You might recall a thread of mine. My thinking is revolving around an active 4-way system and the ribbo... | |
High value, high efficiency speakers for SET amps Atmasphere wrote:Sorry to pop some bubbles here:The problem you are up against is that with almost any SET, if you really want to hear what the amp really does (the magic) you really **don't** want to push it past about 20% of its full output. If ... | |
Used 804 N or S vs New CM10 S2? Glad you agree with that phrase. Yet it does look like you are rushing it! :-)So you bought th RCD1072. Very good unit. I had it in that Rotel setup I mentioned.As good as it is, though, a stock Squeezebox Touch playing wav files from the same CD ... |
