| So I'm still searching for the right amp... I should mention that I need a good phono stage, at least until I can pull the trigger on a separate phono amp. Okay now you got me curious to ask: what exactly do you think is the difference between a phono stage and a phono amp? | |
| Comparing systems through phone recordings Yeah, it works. But the consensus around here is this will be a waste of time.So let me say right up front I am NOT telling anyone to start auditioning components via YouTube! Yet sometimes something is better than nothing. Which for most of us no... | |
| Considering replacing my Rogue Audio Cronus Magnum with separates. My only concern is that it is built by a small enterprise, namely Don Sachs, so not sure how warranties and repairs work once he retires or worse. Interesting point of view. My concern has always been that you cannot match the performance of a ... | |
| How many speaker companies? Unfortunately there are no qualifications required to be a speaker designer so theres no limit to how many speaker companies there can be. Fortunately there are no qualifications required to be a speaker designer so the only limits are imagi... | |
| So It`s Ok To Mix and Match Ported and Sealed Subwoofers ?? If you want to see what DIY with freebie cabs can look like, my system is now posted. | |
| Audio Rack Selection Posted today, my system, with lots of pictures and a description of my rack. Its hard to tell the top granite is sitting on sand, but the sand bed in the bottom rack can be seen in some views. Lotta work but really affordable and outstanding perfo... | |
| So It`s Ok To Mix and Match Ported and Sealed Subwoofers ?? I sometimes wonder if the same effect of a DBA setup can be had with way lesser priced subs !?Yes. For example, Tim has the Audiokinesis Swarm system with one Dayton amp. Read his comments, how awesome it is. Based on his and others info I built ... | |
| DIY corner traps Right. And the fabric the material is covered with has a big effect on the higher frequencies. | |
| As good as it gets I guess I hope it improves a little. I am comparing it to another good amp and don't hear the sound I as hoping for.One thing really frustrating, people dribbling little drabs here and there. Just come out and tell us wtf is going on, so we can h... | |
| Which amp would you go with The smart buy is an integrated. Variable out is no substitute for a pre-amp. Separates make no sense below the mega-buck cost no object level. Which you ain't. No purchase is forever. A separate power amp ties you into a weak position by limiting ... | |
| So It`s Ok To Mix and Match Ported and Sealed Subwoofers ?? Tim is one who knows what he's talking about, Steve. I don't even need to read his posts any more, they are all so thorough and accurate its only if I have the time any more. When it comes to which sub, if you have one you like go with it. It does... | |
| Buttkicker transducer vs earthquake transducer vs ??? The key once again is to use not just one but several. I like to combine metamucil with prune juice. Earthquake! Buttkicker!!! | |
| Curious about the difference in what I’d hear on different tonearms A much more productive approach is to search out all the reviews and comments you can find on the arms you're considering. Concentrate on the performance of the arms specifically. Ignore the table. Ignore the cartridge. Ignore everything but the a... | |
| Interesting conundrum Right. I'm always puzzled by people who change three things and then act like its just one.Makes me wonder, if they aren't aware such obvious things matter, what else are they missing? | |
| So It`s Ok To Mix and Match Ported and Sealed Subwoofers ?? Very risky scm taking advice from one of the least knowledgeable on this subject on the whole site. DYODD.The Audiokinesis Swarm are ported, yes, but all come with plugs. Plug a port and it becomes a sealed speaker. There's nothing magical about p... |
