| I am enjoying my analog system, but what can I do to improve? Check any music frequency chart. There is no music up there to hear if one even could and the gear is capable. Just noise most likely. Waste of time and money but if you’ve already conquered what does exist and can be heard then there has to be so... | |
| About users with hidden agendas It’s an open forum. You can do what you think right. I’d just be civil and sure of your facts. | |
| CHANGING FROM AUDIO RESEARCH TO AUDIO NOTE SYSTEM That’s a big change. I’d be sure about it somehow before committing fully. Can you keep the old stuff until the new stuff passes the grade? | |
| Supper's Ready Two different but similar interpretations for sure. SR fans should also check out Steve Hackett’s solo version in recent years and the live version included on the first Genesis box set. Impossible to choose the best, only a favorite at any p... | |
| The worst sentence in audio writing It can happen in some cases. No worse than many other things people say. | |
| Describe your preference in a single sentence I like ‘em articulate with a little meat on the bones. | |

When both analog and digital playback are done extremely well the sounds tend to converge. It was one of the best phonos I have heard. Piano dynamics on an especiall... | |
| What do you guys think of adding a subwoofer to this system? Take a sound meter app and some white noise and see what you got and how much room there is for a sub to fill things out. Then you will know the answer. | |
| Speaker pairing suggestions to go w/ NAD M33 Find a nice pair of Ohm Walsh. | |
| Placement of Single Subwoofer Affecting Sound of Main Speakers Should ask what sub are you using and what speakers? Also consider using white noise and a sound meter ( app on smartphone) to get an idea of what is going on in regards to sub filling in lowest octave at your listening location smoothly. Some spe... | |
| Placement of Single Subwoofer Affecting Sound of Main Speakers Ideally you want one sub front and center. Front and slightly off center is next best. Avoid the corners. Rear center is another decent option especially if you sit closer to the sub than the front mains. You can get away with a lot with sub pla... | |
| What speakers for Naim Unity Atom For a room that size, with your requirement for detail, were it me on that budget, I’d stick with the smaller stand mounted monitors to start, see if enough bass and if not add a sub or subs later. I would avoid floor standers if room is upper le... | |
| What speakers for Naim Unity Atom No brainer, go with a pair of KEF ls50 meta for just a tad more new (they do detail as well as just about anything, within their limits), or even older ls50s that would come in under budget used. | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Radio Paradise. | |
| How much “suspension of disbelief do you need?” Not important to me anymore. Been there, done that. |
