| Who knows something about Tri-channel 3-channel stereo for music (not HT)? I’ve been meaning to build LXminis for a few years but other projects keep getting in the way. The full range speaker in the LXmini is designed to have a cardoid dispersion so I guess it’s all sweet spot in front of them. Do you know if the ones ... | |
| Who knows something about Tri-channel 3-channel stereo for music (not HT)? Pragmasi,Thank you for the response! The way I've tried already, puts the center in series with L&R (increasing impedance and causing no left or right bias). It also increases dispersion for wider sweet spot. It fails to increase holographic ... | |
| Can't get my second monitor to work with my Marantz 8802 - HELP I'm not familiar with your specific Marantz unit, but am familiar with sister Denon, they typically use same processor/menus.HDMI pass through is usually only available on one HDMI output. The source unit signal will pass-through this HDMI output ... | |
| Are there any Tool fans here? I'm not a fan of Tool, and have no comment on the quality of their recordings. I suspect they, like most others, take their work seriously and have invested significant time and resources in their work. Occasionally I make videos of our motorcycli... | |
| Correct Way to Invert Phase Sounds a little obsessive-compulsive, but it would bother me too - probably enough to make a change. | |
| I am Looking for That Elusive 3 Dimensional Room Filling Soundstage There was a time when amp mfg's were making 3-channel amps for this purpose, does anyone know what that was called? | |

| Amazon Launches Lossless "Hi-rez" HD Music Service Giving it a 90-day free trial. Angus and Julia Stone have an album in Amazon UltraHD quality - that type of music sounds so good on electrostats (guitars and vocals). I like that Amazon has clearly identified which music (albums/tracks) are in Ult... | |
| Is integrated the future for 2 channel audiophiles? I enjoy the NAD C-388 integrated with BluOS2i MDC module. It's the best all-in-one I could find with A-B speaker switching to drive 2-ohm loads. Not as fully developed user interface nor as easy to use as Denon/Marantz AVRs (on-screen menus). It c... | |
| Bookshelf to replace Martin Logan Source Following up. I did try the ML LX16, very affordable, didn't compare favorably with other bookshelves in the stable at the time (SVS, Elac, B&W, Buchardt), they did sound better than Micca. The cabinets were beautiful, and I really liked the g... | |
| Looking for a feature-rich 2-channel integrated that can drive 2-ohm loads Following-up. I did go with NAD C-388 and added BluOS2i MDC module. Getting it all setup is a chore (compared to Denon), but once all the firmware is upgraded, and settings sorted-out, it works very well driving electrostats. It even works ok with... | |
| Martin Logan Source vs. Goldenear Triton3+? Very pleased with Golden Ear Tritan 3+. Used as mains in HT system for many months now. Only thing I would change is go up the Tritan line, 2+, 1, 1R, or Reference. | |
| Is there any streamer/integrated competitor to NAD C-388 w/BluOS2i MDC? Thanks for the recommendations! The Denon/Marantz siblings are new models I didn't know about. Both rated down to 6 ohms (Martin Logans can hit 1.6 ohms momentarily), so the Hegel seems like the best option (rated to 2 ohms), and like the NAD M32,... | |
| What’s really hurting the audio hobby? What's hurting the hobby is cell phones, social media and convenience = very small % of population care about great sound - just as soon listen to Echo Dot because it's easier. I was over at a friend's house couple days ago and noticed he had a ne... |
