JBL L-200T3 original owner If just the surrounds need to be replaced, I'd estimate $12-1400. A full recone of the woofers could cost $4-500 and if done with aftermarket parts would reduce the value, depending on the buyer. | |
10dB resonant peak at 40Hz Your concern about hearing resonance rather than music can be addressed by a combination of HP filter and sub. By reducing the energy below 60hz in your mains and REPLACING it with a sub with DSP that you can move around, you would have some contr... | |
Assistance with room treatments I would suggest contacting GIK or Music City Acoustics for advice and information. That's their business and they understand complex situations. If you can use REW to measure your room, both will analyze it and provide advice and materials. | |
10dB resonant peak at 40Hz @atmasphere My single sub with the HP filter is doing such a nice job, I'm considering adding a second. But I'm concerned that while two may fill the room more evenly, I'm inviting phase issues with two sources. I'm thinking that one reason a si... | |
If you had to choose... Why not move up the ATC ladder. SCM 19s or 40s. They get better. | |
Songs this good don't come around every day. Just listened to it on my newly configured system. Beautiful song, great recording. | |
10dB resonant peak at 40Hz I just set up a sub with a high pass on my mains. It's an astounding and wonderful difference. Just having the low end coming from the floor instead of 30 inches above eliminated most of my 60hz resonance. The difference in clarity with the main... | |
Bluesound @rick_n That's what I pleaded with Bluesound to do but they wouldn't cooperate. @kmcong What OS are you using? | |
Bluesound @soix I've been streaming since around 2010 and when HiRez became available I started trials of all 3 services offering it. I thought Quboz sounded best but at that time they had an inexplicable limit on playlist size of 100 songs and that was a... | |
Bluesound Yes. I got the same reply from Bluesound. Very annoying. A workaround is to use the Amazon Music app to add what you want to your library. Then it may show up in "My Music" on BluOs. I had an existing Quboz trial about to end so I extended it a m... | |
10dB resonant peak at 40Hz At that frequency, a high pass filter at 50 hz might work. | |
All around headphone amp recommendations The LTA Velo is worth a look. Or the MicroZotl MZ3. Depending on your budget, Schiit makes some great headphone amps. You could buy 3-4 different ones for options | |
question about Balanced signals. Depends on the preamp. Some convert to balanced and some just pass a single ended signal down two legs of the XLR. | |
1 song you never get sick of? A Song for You Leon Russell That piano intro just grabs me and the lyrics are like a mantra. | |
Hi end audio equip sounds better today than in decades past due to tech - T/F @ghdprentice I’ll nominate my 1978 JBL 4311wxa vintage control monitors. They have a unique design unlike most. The concentric layout of the drivers, the midrange driver wired in reverse polarity, and the simple crossover result in a harmonicall... |
