Would you rent a $14,000 DAC for $75 per day? +1 onhwy61 | |
Tweaking Your Speaker Placement I use a cheap carpenter’s laser that my nephew gave me that looks something like this one, I just center it atop my monitor and eyeball it while aiming at a pillow where my head would be, using the top of the sofa as a gauge. I used to be fasti... | |
A question about trim rings around speaker drivers This question has came up before and after reading through all the responses, I tried it on some speakers I had at the time that had visible screws. Every screw required some tightening with a couple that needed more than a quarter turn to do acco... | |
Modding a Oppo 103 I did something similar to that with a ready made piece from a different make and it went smoothly with the install. I forget if there was a big enough of an improvement and it ran rather hot to the touch all the time so I took it out and put the ... | |
Thoughts on Speakers for a Small Audio/Video Room Yes they do. I'd try plugging the ports which would lessen the base boom while retaining some good, tight base and experiment toeing them in to your satisfaction. See if that works. If not, then monitors may be all you need, like the Revival Audi... | |
Package Has Disappeared in USPS System Gotta love this first world problem...timeliness. | |
Do CD Transports benefit much from upgraded power cords? @grunge1000 In regards to $2000 PCs, I think you'll find most here, me included, in thinking it's overkill. I've only spent as much as $500 for some PCs and found easily discernible differences and at that point, called it a day and just listened ... | |
Do CD Transports benefit much from upgraded power cords? @grunge1000 Your hypotheses of all the variances in power that a power line goes through in it's 100s of miles journey presupposes variances in its power delivery, cleanliness and stability, so why would it matter by the time you get in at your ... | |
Do CD Transports benefit much from upgraded power cords? How did you get "aging electrons" from this? It was never stated or implied. What's with the trolling? Is it that the more it makes sense, the more you refuse to entertain the idea? I'm glad you don't hear a difference but to pollute a thread on... | |
Do CD Transports benefit much from upgraded power cords? Hook up your system to at any point in those 100s of miles of transmission, at step up transformers, step down transformers, at 25 yr old 6 GA and 12 GA wiring, and your system will sound different at all the points you choose. One can't argue tha... | |
A special loudspeaker - Revival Audio Atalante 5 @jbhiller Thanks for the information. Now I'll spend the next week analyzing my room and maybe change things around. All the best, Nonoise | |
A special loudspeaker - Revival Audio Atalante 5 Hi jbhiller, my room is around 10.5' by19.5' but my listening space is 10.5' by 13'. One side opens to the rest of the place allowing SPLs to bleed out to the side. I used to run JBL 4319 monitors which are ever so slightly smaller than the 5s a... | |
And a Ho! Ho! Ho! To All! I think it's due to images not posting. At least I hope it's that. | |
And a Ho! Ho! Ho! To All! Happy Holidays to one and all! All the best, Nonoise | |
Why Do ~You~ Still Play CDs? When I asked one of the owners of the company that makes my cables why he's getting into streaming he said he'd settle for 85% of what he can get out of his CDP and TT for casual listening. They have four completely different systems that they tes... |
