| subwoofers and panels don't mix I know this isn't music, but the movie 'Push' has some of the best bass I've ever heard integrated into a movie. And I mean really low bass. I think flat response is a bit low, raise the level of the woofer (assuming you're crossing over at 60 Hz ... | |
| Music Server with no DAC? Yes - looking at the JRiver funcitonality I would consider the client/server functionality a must. Posted on MM about it, perhaps MM can do it via mapped drive letter? Not sure. But agree the J River functionality looks great, and you could add op... | |
| Behringer Crossover for Maggies vs Bryston LiketoListen - yeah, the entry fee is so low, it seems almost worth trying as an experiment. Let me know how your project goes. I am a fan of Hero ICs as a not super-exotic but extremely dependable and have several balanced in my system here and t... | |
| Behringer Crossover for Maggies vs Bryston Cool. What is funny is that a couple of people have contacted me directly on this, and I may wait a year and then get a floor model XVR-1 - the opposite of where I was heading with this thread. Some say that once you go active, the active crossove... | |
| Mark and Daniel Ruby - with NuForce ClassD? Arg! That exact combo is included in one of the main Ruby reviews :). I guess the combo worked out great.http://www.6moons.com/audioreviews/markdaniel3/ruby_3.html | |
| Behringer Crossover for Maggies vs Bryston One thing that is nice about the Bryston are the adjustable slopes. Magnepan recommends the following for the settings at the crossover:Low Pass: 18dB per octave at 250HzHigh Pass: 6dB per octave at 200HzNote that asymmetrical crossover point and ... | |
| Behringer Crossover for Maggies vs Bryston Yeah - no DSP. I don't want ad and then da, the Behringer above, as far as I know aren't dsp based. There is another model above the one I mention that is DSP based.Oh - and one other general comment I should have put in the top part. One way to m... | |
| Why do digital cables sound different? It would be fun to ABX the Kimber D60 (almost 1k at 2m) with the Blue Jeans Belden 1694 $14 dollar or whatever cable. I'll have the Blue Jeans one, anyone got an extra D60 they can lend? He he. And don't misunderstand, I'm a Kimber fan overall, de... | |
| Music Server with no DAC? This is something along the lines of what I'm saying - so there is a market for this... They are basically prepping the Sonos for high quality outboard DAC...http://www.underwoodhifi.com/mod_sonos.html"Our Sonos reclocker upgrade is now available.... | |
| subwoofers and panels don't mix Martykl and others - first sorry for not responding in a better amount of time. The research I set out to do was quite time consuming and while I didn't quite finish it I have enough to post. So - first of all I agree with a follow-on comment that... | |
| Why do digital cables sound different? It is possible that we could summarize a few points:If you DAC re-clocks really really really well (and most very modern ones focus on that now in varying degrees)and If your SPDIF cable is 2 meters or so (not less)andIt is rated somehow to mainta... | |
| Why do digital cables sound different? I have a (hopefully) simple question. Now that we are using 24/96 music and lets assume also 24/192, does that change the requirement on the "Freq Resp dc - 40 MHz" type of rating? What MHz is required? Interesting that Kimber D60 (quite expensive... | |
| Music Server with no DAC? Oh - and agreed to your last sentence, which makes the issue more complex as well... It, by degree, minimizes the importance of the actual DAC chip and whatever other ICs are there right around it to support the process. | |
| Music Server with no DAC? Yeah, I agree. We'd have to know what % it is... And that is indeed the crux of the argument! If it is incrementally (assuming one already wants the rest of the device, which is an assumption we are making) not a high % to add it to what exists as... | |
| Music Server with no DAC? Overall I agree with what you are getting at - and you'll love this - to prove your point I have bought a Beresford for my AV DAC needs which at $250 (a far cry from 5k) is probably at the 90% or even 95% level of anything available in 2000... Whi... |
