| REL Hum. Stumped Nice good job đ. I was gonna suggest a cheater plug to float the ground. | |
| Best Used Speaker Under $4,000 w/ Respectable Lows Also I might look at Tekton. Great speakers for the money and much above IMO. Great bass and everything else. | |
| Best Used Speaker Under $4,000 w/ Respectable Lows +1 great choice IMO | |
| can subwoofers make things worse? They certainly can make things worse! They can also make it much better if itâs dialed in correctly and time aligned with the mains. Also the type of bass. If you have a tight fast sub with a lazy bass speaker it will probably not blend well and v... | |
| Young audiophile metal head looking to level up speaker choice Personally I would x Usher off the list for Metal, at least the one I had. Dynaudio are pretty goodish for metal but need some beefy amplification. Never heard the Evokes but the Focus series was really nice for that kind of music. There is a Focu... | |
| Eliminated my preamp with amazing results I did the same thing and I liked the more direct dac to amp route better at first. Long term I preferred the preamp in the chain. YMMV. As others have mentioned, you might consider keeping your preamp for a bit. | |
| Floor to Bookshelf There is a pair of Dynaudio Focus 140s for sale for 600 bucks I believe. | |
| What to ask when buying used speakers? @bigtwin , â@mofojo  Whenever I've been the seller of speakers, they have always left my home like this. Overkill? $100 and a couple hours of my time. Only happy buyers at the other end. đâ  Iâm lazy so anything large I have a real good pa... | |
| What to ask when buying used speakers? I like and use @bigtwin âs approach. Also no feedback or bad feedback ratings I wonât pursue at all. Iâve probably bought 15 used speaker pairs and never had an issue with a single one. Probably only half were shipped, the rest were driveable. | |
| Speakers - Your "Safest" Choice @fastfreight , âOr get one of the last pairs of Revel Salon 2's for about 10 - 12k. Besst value out there IMHO.â  I donât think his amp would be anywhere near powerful enough for the big Revels as Iâve heard they require BIG power to get them... | |
| Speakers - Your "Safest" Choice Whatâs your main bread and butter for music type. You mentioned rock first? What kind of rock? Hard rock, metal. Everyone says a good speaker is equally good at everything and Iâve found especially on the higher end that is BS! Thatâs why Iâve kep... | |
| Tekton Open Baffle Speakers Ive heard open baffle speakers are not good for rock/metal? How is the mid bass on most open baffle speakers? | |
| Why "bookshelf" sspeakers? IME it depends on what your musical preferences are. I think a 3 way âbookshelfâ 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 Iâm 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. |
