| Bryston SP1.7 Bypass or Digital In ???? Distortion, could you please elaborate on "Analog with DSP (outboard DAC)" part of your post. I understand "Bypassed (outboard DAC)" part. I'm using SP-1.7 in digital mode currently, since I have TacT before Bryston and did't want to introduce ext... | |
| Does a non-audiophile have to calibrate? Hi! If you really want to make a difference and save time, space and eventually money- buy TacT. Given the amount of money you've spent already, and a potential complexity of proper speakers placement and acoustic treatments, I would suggest you g... | |
| Pre/Pro with 2 MCH analog inputs plus.. Rros05666! So, what you are saying is that Bryston does have a discrete 5 channel analog preamplifier? That's were my confusion is coming from- I was under impression, that Bryston analog preamp is 2 channels only. The same goes for Audio Refineme... | |
| Pre/Pro with 2 MCH analog inputs plus.. Slightly off topic. Can somebody, please explain this? I have Bryston SP-1 Pre-Pro, which has one set of 5.1 inputs. My understanding is that Bryston's preamp section is 2 channel analog preamp "analogous to Bryston own B-25 stereo preamp". So, ho... | |
| AL 24MXL VS Trivista DAC? What is AL? Regards. | |
| what is the best way to deal w/ an asymnetrical .. I have a similar problem in my listening room. What I would suggest you do first is: THE PLACEMENT!!! CARA software is very good, if you really want to approach it in scientific way. Then, I would second Maggieq advice on TacT RCS 2.0 (or if you a... | |
| Any other Paradigm Studio 100v3 owners out there? Hi! I owned V.2 and now have 100 V.3 along with 20 V.3 and CC 470 V.3. I feel that V.3 is an improvement over V.2- less bloated and better defined bass, better midrange. The overall sound is more coherent and less overpowered by bass. I'm still de... | |
| Screen sound transparency Thanks, guys! I did mean diffusor (eggcrate-type). I also tend to think, that I should use it in under the screen. Will try to contact PMI. Regards. | |
| Sony NS999ES ModWright upgrade vs. external DAC Actually I ended up buying Musical Fidelity A3.24 Upsampling DAC and intent to keep it for some time. I'm very interested to compare this combo with the different levels of Modwright mods. | |
| The best Beatles recording on CD Thanks, Ben! Actually, I have "Let It Be... naked", great recording. | |
| Foam bass traps and diffusor panels Thaks for the help. I've just ordered Rives test CD2 and will try to update you on the proggress. BTW, on the Rives room simulation page, my speakers ( Paradigm Studio Reference 100v.3) are not listed, so I used the closest in terms of the size an... | |
| Foam bass traps and diffusor panels Thank you, Newbee! I do have an SPL meter, but haven't gotten around to the test disc yet. That's definetely a next step. I'm also waiting to complete some reconstruction project- building a new wall, the left side of my basement is open to the ad... | |
| Foam bass traps and diffusor panels Correction: my room dimensions are 21'5'' x 16'8'' x 8'. I have my speakers positioned according to formula- Room width x 0.447= distance from the back wall;(7'5'') Room width x 0.276= distance from the side wall (4'7'')According to Rives these di... | |
| Would an external DAC improve the sound of my SONY Thank you, Socrates! Your point is very well taken. | |
| Would an external DAC improve the sound of my SONY My question is now this: since I'm probably going to use Sony 999ES as a transport for Red Book playback with MF3 24 DAC, would doing the mods improve " garbage, coming out of the digital output" as was suggested by Socrates earlier in this thread... |
