| Why "bookshelf" sspeakers? @phusis “actually, if your mains reach down into the 40Hz range you could experiment with running them full-range, and thus placing subs at a proper, minimum distance would add to the number of bass sources (mains + subs) for an effective DBA a... | |
| Streamer Comparison and Suggestions Any of you directly compared the Innuos Pulsar with the Sonore Signature Rendu SE Optical? Impressions? | |
| Why "bookshelf" sspeakers? You will pay a lot of money for that bottom octave done right with a pair of large floorstanders. It is easier, and typically less noticed, for designers to cut corners with how the lowest frequencies are handled (i.e., driver size and quality, c... | |
| Besides the BBB how do you fight claim resolution against FedEx Shipping large, heavy, sensitive items is problematic, and expensive, at best. As a seller, I do everything I can think of to minimize my risk of shipping damage, which takes time and costs money, so I eventually became more conservative wrt buyi... | |
| Why "bookshelf" sspeakers? My “bookshelf” speakers are made by Aerial also, but they weigh 105 pounds each and have dual 9- inch woofers in a sealed box. Sitting on 70-pound Sound Anchor stands and paired with two Aerial SW-12 subs, the system offers flexibility of placemen... | |
| Streamer Comparison and Suggestions Thank you @grannyring for your feedback on the SQ of the Pulsar, the responsive support of Innuos, and your preference for the Sense app over Roon. I will have a hard time giving up the artist write-ups on Roon but for better SQ, maybe. The SQ o... | |
| Whats playing on your system today? Vince Guaraldi here, can't have Christmas without him. | |
| Happy Holidays to All Merry Christmas all, a good day for music with family and friends! | |
| Streamer Comparison and Suggestions Good comments and about streamers - thanks. I was able to hook up the Sonore Signature Rendu SE Optical (SRO) today in my system for a trial, and I like what I am hearing. I then wired a new dedicated line to my panel to power my IT-server area a... | |
| Relationship between Ethernet Switch and SQ You will likely get almost as many different opinions as responses. Mine is, you could do a bunch of stuff and buy a bunch of stuff but, unless you have a noticeable noise issue, you will be hard-pressed to hear a difference from the changes bein... | |
| Bananas vs Spades - for Jumpers? “bananas on one end and spades on the other” The best option for flexibility, IMO. I like the BFA style. | |
| Is it important to long demo or own HIGH END gear to have a fair accurate view about it? @noromance @bigkidz +2 I cannot think of a time in the past 20 years when I have been wrong on my first impression of a component/speaker after trying it in my system. Sometimes in the "first 5 minutes" and certainly within the first couple of ... | |
| Is it important to long demo or own HIGH END gear to have a fair accurate view about it? Lower the prices That’s ridiculous. High end audio is a tough business and few get rich off of it. Pricing is reflective of R&D costs, manufacturing, sales network (dealers or direct), shipping and, finally, what the market will bear. Compa... | |
| Duelund Tinned Copper Speaker Cables @mdrone - I have compared the Jupiter tinned copper wire against the same from Duelund as ICs and couldn’t really hear a difference. I have not compared them as speaker cables. Last week, I re-installed my 7awg tinned copper Western Electric peak... | |
| Streamer Comparison and Suggestions So you all got me interested in Grimm again and I reached out to them and asked whether they were considering developing a streamer type product. John-Paul Lizars replied that their goal of the MU1/MU2 was to offer "a self contained solution to d... |
