| Young audiophile metal head looking to level up speaker choice Look at Klipsch Forte III or Forte IV. Both can be found on the used market from time to time. | |
| Efficient speakers -- What was your journey from A to B to ? Curious how people would react to the assertion, "Klipsch speakers need a more careful pairing than other similar speakers." That would be helpful, possibly, as a data point. @hilde45 I do think one needs to pay more attention to supporting g... | |
| Eliminated my preamp with amazing results @ozzy The LEEDH processor in the Lumin streamers is indeed fine sounding. | |
| Eliminated my preamp with amazing results I am using a preamp, but it's a Hattor Audio passive device. I haven't heard any active preamp in my system (up to about 8K) that could beat a well designed passive. Not all systems will perform optimally without a preamp. But when it comes togeth... | |
| Efficient speakers -- What was your journey from A to B to ? I have had the gamut of speakers including magnepan, von schweikert, Wilson, and a host of others. Around 2013 a friend of mine brought over an early pair of Klipsch Heresy speakers. Like a crack dealer on the corner, he got me hooked. I immediat... | |
| Zesto Andros 1.2 Thanks for all the comments so far. | |
| Zesto Andros 1.2 Just don't go by cost as a measure of performance. Yeah, ah, no. That's not what I'm doing. But most of the time, allowances have to be made for a certain price point. That said, when the dust settles I may prefer the SPL. There are no guaran... | |
| McCormack DNA 0.5 vs. DNA 2.0 Deluxe I agree with @soix on this one. But here's my take on the DNA 2. Years ago I had a pair of DNA 1 Deluxe monoblocks driving some magnepans. On a whim I bought a DNA 2 thinking it might be better. Compared to the monos, it was rolled off on the ... | |
| Tekton Open Baffle Speakers Ok pindac. that’s A Good idea. Let’s keep It On topic. 🙄 | |
| Tekton Open Baffle Speakers It makes about as much sense as a person randomly capitalizing words. Which is to say neither makes much sense. I guess it’s a mystery for the ages. | |
| Tekton Open Baffle Speakers Must be using some sort of talk to text program. But if so, it is definitely a glitchy one. | |
| Tekton Open Baffle Speakers @pindac No response to the question I posed to you above? | |
| Tube Phonostage Causing Rumble and Noises @bpoletti is correct. Your turntable is sitting in a “hot spot”, a zone where bass frequencies are being amplified. If it’s near a corner, try moving it. | |
| Tekton Open Baffle Speakers The Spatial Audio X3s had no issues with rock or any bass heavy material. In fact, it was some of the best bass I’ve heard in my room. The speaker had other issues that led me to move them on, but articulate and deep bass was not one of them. | |
| Anyone with Aric Audio experience? I owned the Super KT SE amp a few years ago. Like all of Arics offerings, it sounds much more powerful than its rated output. I used it with EL34s most of the time and those 12 watts were plenty with a pair of Cornwall IVs. |
