| MQA actually tested Why is it that the group of naysayers (cable, mqa, they all sound the same on these threads) have unfounded biases that they try to prove by finding somebody in their little world that agrees with them so they can broadcast it out. It’s hilarious ... | |
| MQA is for chumps Looks like all the cable naysayers from ANA are on this thread. Do you know how stupid some of these threads look? You try to push so called experts docs/videos biases against your narrative, who gives a sh$t? If you can’t hear or you don’t have a... | |
| Looking for recommendations for a pair of full range speakers for ~8k or under I also agree with mijostyn, there are so many better quality speakers out there for the same or even less money. If you have a McIntosh amp, I wouldn’t buy a warm sounding speaker like Sonus Faber unless I listened to them with your amp 1st. McInt... | |
| EXTRA! EXTRA!! Millercarbon Proven Wrong!!! Read all about it! EXTRA! EXTRA!! Another waste of bits and bytes on the web. MC comment: ‘Just not up to the exalted level of Mr White. I suspect few, if any, are.’.With comments like this, the whole story collapses. Everything this audiophool does he claims it’s the best of the ... | |
| Connecting a streamer via an Ethernet cable Always use a wired connection and only use wifi when you can’t use a wired connection. | |
| Diffuser or absorber behind listening position....and is it worth doing?? MC has no clue on acoustics, to treat a room properly will require both absorption and diffusers. Glass is the worst for acoustics, no pods/springs will fix that. Go to the experts like GIK, ASC, or Acoustic Fields (as examples) to get their opini... | |
| Can someone please explain brighter = shrill sounding, no bass, weak midrange, metal dome bad tweeter. NHT with bryston for example.warmer = relaxed treble, good midrange, clean bassdarker = mixing a warm sounding amp with a warm sounding speaker. Sonus Faber speakers with ... | |
| The two most common mistakes are bass and treble What a joke about not purchasing speakers with sensitivity ratings lower than 90 or lower than an 8 ohm load. In this 1 sentence, you pretty much eliminated every "best" speaker on the market. Most of these "best" speakers have sensitivity ratings... | |
| Have I got the wrong amp? or the wrong speakers? Some old "jay" receivers from the 70's were very good like the Yamaha CR series (especially the cr2020), others not so good. Also, there are some good receivers in todays market: look up the Mcintosh MAC7200 receiver, it will blow away what MC is ... | |
| Reel to Reel Woes why not look at an Otari with 15ips capability? Balanced outputs and inputs, 10" reels, awesome deck | |
| Minimum Broadband Speed Necessary For Uninterrupted Qobuz and/or Tidal Listening? It’s not your router or anything inside your house, it’s the copper network. Copper is shared with all your neighbors and that’s why your speed varies. Also with copper, your download speeds are 10x faster than your upload speed. Also copper is no... | |
| $5k-$6K DACs w Roon? Not sure what your bias is against the vendors on your "do not get" list but I would choose 1 of those over any of the 1's you are interested in. If you do want to go with only the 1's on your list, then the Bricasti would be my pic. Sounds like y... | |
| I just finished my new listening room... I would want to hide those speakers behind curtains or doors too and probably would improve the sound | |
| 2 Ohm Tekton Pendragons Who listens to MC anyway? He is so wrong on many of his comments. A 2 ohm load is going to be a problem for most amps. With speakers like what MC has, you would be spending around a grand or 2 for an amp to match the caliper of his speakers and no... | |
| Is this an right time to buy hifi? Never buy Bitcoin, and silver and gold aren’t that great of investments. There are so many better investments to make out there.As for an audio system, car, and other tangibles, these are not investments, they lose money the minute you take them o... |
