| Why "bookshelf" sspeakers? IME it depends on what your musical preferences are. I think a 3 way “bookshelf” with a sub can get you pretty close to a tower. With 2 ways the single mid driver is trying to do all the bass, vocals etc and they struggle with upper bass articulat... | |
| Ayre AX-7e with KEF Reference 1s or LS50 Metas That is super confusing? Or maybe I’m dumb. Could be either. | |
| Tekton Open Baffle Speakers Yeah it will 7k if they sell like hotcakes! Otherwise they will stay at 3 or less like his last open baffle did. | |
| Why "bookshelf" sspeakers? “High” end audio is a niche for sure. Bookshelves are more feasible to ship and move on from. Other than that, yeah they take up just as much space as a floorstander. I will say when it comes down to a really good monitor vs a mid grade tower I’ll... | |
| Bookshelf Speakers for office ~$500 Jazz mostly so I guess tweeter/midrange is the most important I’m guessing. Along with some punchy mid bass. Off the wall suggestion, used old Snell. I had some Snell Eiii I think they were. Wonderful speakers and very expressive for that kind of ... | |
| Musical subwoofer under $2000 @fred60 , dang it sounds like Paradigm did you dirty I’m kinda surprised! | |
| Musical subwoofer under $2000 @fred60 , "I think you are right not to spend too much, as Class D amps (I think all subs use Class D) can’t be repaired once they fail. I spent about $2,500 on a Paradigm sub for my home theatre setup and it failed after about a decade of use. I... | |
| TV Based System - Hifi vs. Studio Monitors For tv don’t use a studio monitor…. | |
| SST Son Of Ampzilla II vs Parasound A21 or A23+ No never heard the A23+. The A23 didn’t get rave reviews at all. Maybe it’s great? | |
| Musical subwoofer under $2000 The Rythmic IMO and IME is not a great rock sub. Does not hit hard…….. at all. I would take one JL over 2 Rythmics all day. My Fathom F113 is on its ways back from repair. JL and I’m sure a lot of other subs are visceral, the Rythmic is not. The J... | |
| SST Son Of Ampzilla II vs Parasound A21 or A23+ A21 is a great amp IMO. Not heard the others but depending on your speakers the a23+ would probably be on the bottom of the list. | |
| Musical subwoofer under $2000 You want punch in the gut tight bass? or blend just a little something down low? | |
| Preamp vs DAC vs Streamer Congrats! I’ve yet to see a dac straight to amp guy still a dac straight to amp guy after a year or so. | |
| Help for a Lo-Fi guy I never pay over 50% for a used piece and that’s if it’s current. Normally pay 30%ish if it’s older. Just because there are guys asking certain prices I assume they are getting 20% less or so depending. | |
| REL .LFE input My understanding is bass around 100hz and under is not stereo. If you want to be sure just buy a 2 into 1 splitter. LH and RH outputs will be summed into a single plug for your sub. |
