| Is Sub Gain Set&Forget Across Music Genres a Fallacy? After dialing in the powered subs on my Spatial X3s, I haven't touched a thing. Tight, tuneful and room filling bass is what I get. Sure, some recordings have more, some less. But it's never boomy or out of control. I just live with what's on the ... | |

| Wilson Alexia 2 Any high powered receiver will do the job. Dave Wilson did a demo with a receiver to show that the speaker is what mattered. Yeah, a receiver will "do the job". A Prius will "do the job" too, but I'm not a fan for obvious reasons. But your prem... | |

| Why Does My Nottingham Motor Seem To Run Fast? Former Spacedeck owner here. Motor and arm are fine. The motor is a low torque design hence why you have to give it a shove. Supposedly it transmits less vibrations to the platter. The unipivot arm is normal, all unipivots do that.Oz | |
| Magnepan, Ohm, Spatial or ?? Dutchydog,I understand that these speakers of yours had a nice “base“ to sit upon, but how did they reproduce bass?One more thing, punctuation can be your friend if you let it...... | |
| Getting the most out of my Definitive Tech bp2000's Jesse12The tuning of that big woofer is designed for maximum excursion and output. When I owned my pair I went to hifi 96 in NYC. I had been into audio for many years but that was the place I heard a kick drum accurately reproduced in many of the ... | |
| Getting the most out of my Definitive Tech bp2000's Well you got a really good deal so I guess you should try to make them work.Everyone is trying to be helpful, but missing the mark. The big problem with those speakers is the powered subs. No matter where you place the speakers or how much you adj... | |
| Getting the most out of my Definitive Tech bp2000's If you care about audio and not home theater, look for new speakers. I had the BP 2000s about 25 years ago and they were some of the worst speakers I have heard for two channel music. Great for car crashes, explosions and dinosaur stomps though. | |
