Sound coming from JL Audio F 113 If you have an original F113 (ie not v2), and it's never been re-capped, it's probably due. The original boards had capacitors that were marginal for the conditions. The factory replaces them with higher-temperature caps that are expected to last ... | |
Room Treaments - Where To Begin... Room treatment needs to address three main items: Bass reverberation time First reflections Slap echo For (1), large bass traps in corners. For (2), absorptive panels at sidewalls and ceiling first-reflection points. For (3), provide absorp... | |
Passive vs Active...Again! I've tried many DSP preamps. The DEQX was one of the best sounding but most complex to set up. I sent it back. Others are much simpler to operate. Still, a good result with DSP is never free. It takes energy and time get great results. The same i... | |
Trouble Understanding an Ad. The MiND is available separately and also as part of some Simaudio preamps and integrated amps. | |
Passive vs Active...Again! >> don't you need some kind of engineering degree to run DSP? It sounds very complicated. << I thought you were considering active speakers because they had DSP. It's no more complicated when it's in the preamp than in the speaker. Ma... | |
Passive vs Active...Again! I’ve been using DSP with passive speakers for nearly 2 decades now. There is no reason you can’t, too. Look into DSP preamps by Anthem, miniDSP, Classé, Lyngdorf, DSPeaker, Trinnov, NAD, and others. DSP can do a lot by itself, and the better the ... | |
Apologies to TMR Audio Geez, I just got something from TMR that was either a superb deal, or they posted a wrong price. Either way, they stuck by it with no BS, shipped promptly, and in all ways have been a superb vendor. I’d buy from them again, for sure. Good man, @j... | |

Output issue w/ Anthem STR? Glad to hear you figured it out. | |
Output issue w/ Anthem STR? I can’t say what is happening with your system, but here is mine in comparison. Roon Core - Auralic Aries G1 - Anthem STR Preamp. The Anthem shows whatever sampling frequency that the source (Roon) provides and indicates. So what you’re seeing it ... | |
Are Ohm Walsh's a step up from Martin Login Electro Motion ESL's Ohms are going to be very different in presentation from the MLs -- you know that, right? Panel electrostatics have a narrow, focussed sweet spot, while omnis like the Ohms have a more spacious sound. What is better will be a matter of taste. You... | |
Class D amp recomendations please I have a pair of Apollon monoblocks made with the PuriFi 1ET400A modules. I really like them, enough that I sold a $7000 amp because I prefer the Apollons for clarity, soundstage, low noise, and general musicality. I have listened to amps in the $... | |
Component grounding Then the question is, is this a good idea, or does it create a ground loop that can make the signal more subject to hum, not less? | |
Impressed with all in one computer speaker - Vanatoo I heard them at AXPONA 2019 and was really impressed at what they offer for the price. The sound was quite enjoyable. | |
What Monitors would you pick for my new office (bookshelf) >> I like the Harbeth 30.1 a lot. |
