| Audeze MM-100 @gkelly Here I’ve lived literally five minutes away for eight years and it’s the first time I have ever been in the store. What I really liked about the experience is once he was sure things were working properly, he handed me the iPad and left me... | |
| I listened to a pair of Audio Research Reference 330Ms “IMO ALL ARC tube gear has the same "voice". Warmly analytical but not a warm bubble bath (with somewhat grey water) like, say the McIntosh MC 9011.” Okay so that’s one of the best metaphors I’ve heard in awhile! Nice… Happy listening. | |
| Impressions of Pacific Audio Fest 2024 @pinwa , to clarify, my comments concerning the Borreson's and their sound had more to do with the room setup and not so much the speakers themselves. I tried moving around the room some but changing position didn't seem to help. @kennymacc , I ... | |
| PS Audio IRSV selling My pop(RIP) had a set of the IRS'. There's something about the soundstage presented by a physically large set of transducers that is difficult to resist. Even small ensemble music just seems... there. That said he played holy heck getting them set... | |
| Worth repairing a Velodyne ULD-12 from the 90's? Most of these responses are just flat wrong. When I pulled my old RHLabs sub out of storage the surround on the driver was dust. Just a quick websearch led me to these folks: http://www.theloudspeakerstore.com I pulled the speaker and for a re... | |
| The Rapid Rise (& Fall) of the CD Honestly, I think it's all pretty good. We have LPs for the "analogue forever" crowd. There's CDs for those who simply must have 0% background noise. And we have digital streaming for pretty much the ultimate in convenience, access and variety. ... | |
| Bluesound FWIW: My Node2i is fine. Happy listening. | |
| ARC M300 MKII call for help Might try giving these folks a call: https://www.pyramid-audio.com/ Good luck and… Happy listening. | |
| Shocked. Need Opinions. How muck power do I need? @tomaswv Others have already explained the relationship between wattage vs. db and speak efficiency. I'm only going to add my practical experience. I used to have a pair of Hafler DH-220 kits that I installed their bridging kits into. When in bri... | |
| What is your front end ? I really should do a system page like so many others… Linn LP12 Valhalla with M&K Rabco and Hana CJ Premier 6 MC pre-preamp California Audio Labs Auria CD player Bluesound Node2i into Border Patrol DAC ARC SP11 MkII preamp All “vin... | |
| Suggestions for testing a never installed, 20-year boxed amp. I think the advice being given about contacting Pass Labs before powering up is sound. Not being familiar with Pass equipment, is there any current limiting circuitry in them? I have a Mark Levinson ML335 that's been boxed for 25 years or so. When... | |
| Would you move to a bigger house if you could just to have a better listening room ? @mikelavigne I just visited your link. I have only one word: Stunning. Happy listening. | |
| Would you move to a bigger house if you could just to have a better listening room ? We’re searching for our next home for when my wife retires. The main reason is to find a home without stairs but I’ve been promised a dedicated audio salon. My system is in our living room and while it sounds good, it’s a compromise. The next pl... | |
| Not sure what to think @olfac87 I think you can apply the following motorcycle racing analogy to audio. You can throw more and more money at the motor and gain a few tenths of a second a lap but if you throw the same money at suspension work, you'll gain full seconds a... | |
| Electric bill any high My guess would be the compressor in your refrigerator. Amazon sells apparatus that you can use to measure current use. Good luck! Happy listening. |
