| Equalization with REL six pack Just getting back to everyone because I have my six pack and it set up properly buy a local St Louis dealer. It is pretty amazing. Two things I learned help answer my questions that I originally posted: 1. Regarding the potential overlap of subwo... | |
| Shindo Masseto w Koetsu .3mv output Thanks for the responses. I was only surprised because with my Berning preamp I have to dial the digital higher than the phono. But I realized after reading your comments that the Berning mc transformers were adjusted to high gain. That explains ... | |
| Shindo Masseto w Koetsu .3mv output Hi guys. Returning to this thread because I actually bought a Masseto! I have had it up and running for a few days now. It sounds beautiful and seems to have adequate gain for my koetsu rwsp, just as you all predicted. An unexpected oddity emerge... | |
| Equalization with REL six pack However I'm not inclined to second guess John Hunter and all the dealers who have set up thousands of six packs. My working assumption is that they are right but I would just like to know why! | |
| Equalization with REL six pack Thanks for clarifying Gene. You bring up another point that had me scratching my head, which is why the three subs would be moved alongside the main speakers when an array is used, versus taking advantage of slightly different room placement to ev... | |
| Equalization with REL six pack I am attenuating to ameliorate a room problem between 40-80 hz that I cannot treat for ... not for parlor tricks. Thanks for assuming the worst without knowing anything about me, Gene. | |
| Equalization with REL six pack m-db: Not sure how this applies to my question of when to apply attenuation in the setup process? Before or after setting the REL crossovers and volumes? Thanks | |
| REL six pack questions Thanks audiorusty! Yeah you make a great point about them using small monitors for their demo. But in many installations they use giant main speakers that have response down to the bottom. So it's still a mystery to me with those kinds of speakers... | |
| REL six pack questions Thanks Charlie. I keep reading these kinds of things, so am excited to hear it. | |
| Equalization with REL six pack Thanks Erik! I put room treatment aside only to avoid people telling me I shouldn't be doing equalization etc etc. I definitely understand it's best to treat as far as you can and then maybe equalize what's left, if needed. I do have a couple of b... | |
| Equalization with REL six pack No thank you. I listen to 80% analog and ike the PARC. | |
| Shindo Masseto w Koetsu .3mv output I have played with outboard sets with a previous setup and the Hashimoto HM-7 based sut sounded amazing. The only thing I did not like about it is that it tended to make images very large, which for me makes the whole presentation less realistic. ... | |
| Shindo Masseto w Koetsu .3mv output Thanks again, everyone! I will start looking for a used Masseto. There is one in Canada that is a possibility. | |
| Shindo Masseto w Koetsu .3mv output Thanks for the great feedback guys. Good to hear a .3mv cartridge sounded great on the Masseto. Lalitk, I seem to read repeated opinions that the masetto is superior to the old monbrison, and potentially not as good as the new monbrison. Not sure... | |
| Shindo Masseto w Koetsu .3mv output Thanks for answering the bonus question! Appreciated. May I ask what cartridge you used and its output in mv? Stu |
