Did I damage my new amp I have disabled my remote smartphone volume adjustment function Something I don’t have as that would be the solution | |
Did I damage my new amp The problem was the first night of experimenting with streaming, something I’ve never used, I grabbed my phone the wrong way and it cranked my amp up to maximum volume. A dangerous situation. I just felt it would make more sense to be able to sele... | |
Did I damage my new amp Thanks Jetter. That I know but what I find strange is the relationship between the phone and the amp with regards to volume settings. Turn up the amp and the phone volume goes up, turn down and the phone goes down. The other way around also. Adju... | |
Did I damage my new amp So two people commented that I’m “doing it wrong” as far as volume adjustments go yet I get no answer when I inquire as to the correct way. Im not trying to be funny either, I am curious about the answer. | |
Did I damage my new amp It's been a stressful day and a half so I'm thinking I will avoid music for a day or two. Let my brain decompress. My new speakers, hopefully, will be here next week. That's when I can really have a good listen. | |
Did I damage my new amp I hope you sort this out. But here’s one little tip for you. If your streaming involves using the volume control on your phone, you aren’t doing it right. So what is the correct way? | |
Did I damage my new amp So…😔 after all that I might have to recant. I’ve spent the last few hours a/b ing the Focal’s and my old MA’s. I can’t hear what I thought I heard last night. Maybe my ears were too tired? Maybe I just hit run of a few poorly recorded songs? I d... | |
Did I damage my new amp If you are using an app like Lumin, Sense or some other streamer app, you can fix the volume. What are you using to stream? Just my iPhone or iPad and the Arcam | |
Did I damage my new amp The Focals are in place. My wife is still sleeping so I can’t play at a decent volume yet. But I should have thought of this yesterday. I plugged in my headphones and I think it sounds ok. You know how it is now, my mind will be messing me up f... | |
Did I damage my new amp I hope you sort this out. But here’s one little tip for you. If your streaming involves using the volume control on your phone, you aren’t doing it right. which brings me to a side question. Is there a way to have the iPhone or iPad volume to... | |
Did I damage my new amp Not that I am refusing the dumb ass award but Arcam could ship streaming amps with the “max volume” feature for the Net source at 50 or so, and then direct people to that setting in the manual. It never dawned on me that my iPhone would do that. I... | |
Did I damage my new amp I’ve got a pair of Focal Chorus 714’s in my surround sound setup for my tv. I might just plug those into the 2 channel setup and have a listen. I’ll try that tomorrow sometime. That should get me a quick answer as I don’t think they have ever been... | |
Did I damage my new amp I hope so. Even though they are the out going speakers I figured I could sell them for a bit of cash. That’s not going to happen now. But if that’s the case, better the speakers than a brand new amp. | |
Did I damage my new amp Seems to be more in the mid to higher frequency. The woofer surrounds are fine. | |
Is my amp good enough? In some sense the question is "is good enough good enough"...you certainly can get better, but at what price? Did you compare the Arcam to the NAD ? There is no question your NAD is "good enough".. Yes, this was what I was alluding to in the... |
