| Peachtree DAC w LFD integrated ? Great. It sounds like all I need to do to use the Peachtree solely as a DAC for the LFD is to patch the Peachtree's Line Out into an LFD input with an interconnect and I'm set. This would save me from having to get a stand-alone DAC, at least for ... | |
| Peachtree DAC w LFD integrated ? Many thanks, Mofi! Will the DAC be engaged regardless of which output is used from the Peachtree? | |
| Headphones and Hearing Loss Many thanks for these responses. I'm going to give the momentum a try. If they are not satisfactory for him, I'll probably take them for myself! ZD542--yes, I'm not sure the answer to that, but I think some with hearing aids (like my dad) can use ... | |
| Headphones and Hearing Loss That's very helpful. I was actually considering a pair of momentum for myself. For my father, maybe these will work well too. He'll be listening mostly to CDs on computer (no serious audiophile set up). Classical stuff, primarily. I've heard a few... | |
| Endless debate: monitor + sub vs floorstanding My Rel T5 is only an 8" downfiring, yet it delivers vast bedspreads of sound. I have it set up in the corner, roughly 4 inches in and about 2 feet behind the left Tablette. The sound of Takemitsu's "From Me Flows What You Call Time" hits my chest ... | |
| Is Upgrading Degrading? tobias--I'm really enjoying the T5. I know many have spoken of the challenges of integrating a sub with monitors, but have not found this to be the case with this particular item. I'm getting more and more pleasurable sound through extended adjust... | |
| Is Upgrading Degrading? Hi Tobias,Yes--I pretty much agree with all of your points. I guess the issue seems relevant to me at the moment as I've just supplemented my system with a new Rel sub bass and have spent hours fastidiously playing with its position in the room, c... | |
| Is Upgrading Degrading? What seems to me a possibly related question turns on the issue of "naturalness" as the most sought-after attribute in a fine stereo system. To what degree do audiogioners agree (or disagree) that approximating a live performance ought to be the h... | |
| Endless debate: monitor + sub vs floorstanding Well...I took the plunge and got the diminutive Rel T5 to go with my Tablettes. It sits unobtrusively in the corner like a starving timber wolf, waiting for unsuspecting low frequencies, which it pounces on and devours, emitting the digested remai... | |
| Endless debate: monitor + sub vs floorstanding ok..if I'm not beating an already debilitated horse here...I found to my surprise, a local Proac dealer who adamantly insisted that "most people can't set up 2 speakers properly let alone three. A floorstanding speaker like the D18 will completely... | |
| Endless debate: monitor + sub vs floorstanding All very helpful comments. Many thanks. The damn Rel went up by 100 bucks, but I still think I'll grab one. | |
| newbie mania Many thanks for the tips. I'd been looking at the Peachtree, though a few reviews seemed underwhelmed. Nice to have the headphone option, as i live in an apartment, though it's not the most pressing concern. Had looked at a Pass Aleph here on audi... | |
| newbie mania Wow..that's a beautiful looking amp. there's one for sale here too! Would it be suitable for response 2.5s as well? | |
| omnivore newbie's dilemma hmm..very helpful comments..thank you! Maybe I'm better off leaving well enough alone in the amp dept for the time being. Or perhaps an investment in a good sub to complement the tablets would make sense? All quite confusing. I like the bass respo... |
