| Anybody else using a distributed array sub system? Hi Marty, James still sells musical instruments as well as audio gear out of his home, I believe. His company is called James Romeyn Audio & Music, LLC and his website is www.jamesromeyn.com The 4 sub distributed array has far excee... | |
| Subwoofers zardozmike, I was about to post my long and detailed response to your post but thought it would be more useful as a separate thread because you could still read my info and there may be responses from other members who utilize a distributed su... | |
| downloading music versus cd `s quality Lisar, I doubt it, sorry. But, given the high level of your system, you may want to go with separates for a computer audio/ high-rez source, anyways. It'll make upgrades easier and allows for your own sized storage drive. You'll likely want one wi... | |
| downloading music versus cd `s quality Scot-w, Yes, the Sony HAPZIES is a very good solution for those who want a one box solution and don't want to deal with a laptop, software, wi-fi/router, separate dac, NAS and a backup hard drive, although I think a backup drive may be needed for ... | |
| Does HiRez really sound better? Hi In shore, Thanks for clarifying. I think I understand your comment/frustration better now. It seems you are, like myself, already convinced that HiRez offers the best sonic performance of currently available music sources. You're just looking f... | |
| Does HiRez really sound better? In shore, While I don't disagree with your comment, I would add that switching to a computer based digital source in one's system is not a simple thing and requires some commitment. The first need is to educate yourself on how it all works and the... | |
| D-SONIC SOA Class-D Core Amps. The best Class-D ? Thank you, Syot.Mitcht is right, no need to SHOUT since we're all here listening.Tim | |
| Digital Amplifier Questions Almarg, That's good news. And, yes, I agree that I would have noticed any combo of static, noise and buzzing. None was present even at a fairly high (1/2 of max) volume.Thanks for your assistance and verification,Tim | |
| Digital Amplifier Questions Hi Almarg, I did initially try your recommended method (tuning to an area low on the AM band with no station present) but found it difficult to determine when RF interference was present. Tuning to a station with only decent reception (not an over... | |
| D-SONIC SOA Class-D Core Amps. The best Class-D ? Syot, Very nice system. Both of your Youtube videos sounded very good even on my laptop with headphones, amazing. Your room also looks very nice although the room is quite dark. I'm finding it difficult to make out everything; I can see the Rowlan... | |
| Digital Amplifier Questions All, For something that has absolutely nothing to do with the sound of your system, RF interference/leakage testing is sure a pain in the butt; mainly since I'm handicapped and walk with a cane. As I stated I would in my last post, I bought a $15... | |
| downloading music versus cd `s quality Hi Douglas, I was just reading about a PS Audio DAC that also up converts CDs to DSD and supposedly dramatically improves the sound of ripped CDs. This is very interesting and appealing to me. However, I don't know if it's worth thousands of dolla... | |
| Does HiRez really sound better? Zd542, The 'Loudness Wars' on CDs has seriously reduced dynamics and micro-dynamics which are potentially much better on CDs as opposed to cassettes. Additionally, CDs benefit from zero wow & Flutter and a much lower noise floor. The areas I n... | |
| Digital Amplifier Questions Bombaywalla, You're right, I could do as you suggested but I don't want to be tied to a cord and handheld portable radios aren't expensive.Guido, Okay, I'll keep an open mind and see if I can pinpoint the leakage point if RF interference is detect... | |
| Digital Amplifier Questions Guido and Al, Both good ideas; I'll get a battery powered portable radio (I've been needing to buy a new hair dryer, anyways) and set the dial to a low frequency on the AM band that lacks a strong station signal. Next I'll test with the various am... |
