Concrete or Wood floor in listening room? I am also in the process of constructing a listening room, and am installing wood floor over slab. Out here in the Pacific Northwest, we like a moisture barrier over our slab, so this is what I am doing to install my floor.1) Clean slab and paint ... | |
Wall Mounting Hardware for Acoustic Panels Thanks Carl,Here is a link to the impailing clips, although I've been told they are probably available at Home Depot.http://www.acousticalsolutions.com/products/hardware/impaling_clips.aspHow many did you put up per panel? How big were your panels... | |
Stereophile test CD2 In/Out of Phase test:question In my experience I concur with Herman. You listen for the voice being between the speakers, not outside of the two speakers. | |
The Magic of Brazilian Music I second the Marisa Monte. Equally if not more so, I suggest the following self-titled CD which can be had on Amazon:Joao Gilberto [IMPORT]Original Release Date: February 6, 1991Label: Polygram Int'l Catalog: #837589 This one is just Joao, his gui... | |
Jolida JD-100 and Headphones I'll agree with FBI. I was really impressed with the Jolida's headphone driving capabilities. I asked Jolida whether the phones went thru the tube stage, and they don't. Just an OPAmp. But it does sound good (I sold my Corda headphone amp) and doe... | |
Advice on integrated tube amps It was my impression that the Dynaudios like alot of power. Has anyone actually used any of the tube amps mentioned above with the Dyns? If any, I'd be thinking Rogue, but I have no previous experience with the Dyns. | |
I Need An Outboard Balance Control, Do They Exist Maybe someone can speak on this - would it be possible to add a resistor to one channel to balance it out. If so, would the resistor have the same effect at all volume levels? | |
Monitors and Integrated for $300-$500 The NAD should really be fine. I used it with a pair of Linn Tukans with good success. I actually liked them better than the spendor 3/5's. | |
Adcom 5300: too aggressive for Epos M 12s? I want to chime in and note that I auditioned the Epos M12.2. speakers last weekend, both with an Odyssee Stratos and a Sony EM amplifier. Those speakers were quite impressive. Warm and full, reasonable imaging, very good for the money. They sound... | |
NEWBIE: Is JITTER a dance? and CLOCK like a watch? Looking for confirmation: is it true that ripping a CD to a hard drive, and reading off the hard drive into a D/A converter results in much less (or no) jitter? | |
Why so much???? I don't think Ashra has asked unreasonable questions. If someone collects porcelan figurines and has all of their walls covered with shelves (each holding 100), any of us might think they are a bit crazy. The collector may even admit to that, and ... | |
Hanging Speakers from the Ceiling... Macrame??? Thanks guys. Great suggestions. I especially like the web link. I'll get in touch with this guy! | |
How much difference between balanced XLR and RCA Also depends if your living environment has alot of RF noise. Balanced filters all of that out. If you live out in the country, it doesn't matter. If you live in the heart of Manhattan, you may see some benefit. | |
Rocky Mountain Audio Fest Shameless self promotion! I'll throw one in just to help you out! | |
$800 Cartridge Shootout and Upgrade Path I've had both the Denon and the Shelter, and I can only say I am much happier with the Shelter. I found it to be more lush and overall enticing than the Denon, which I found to be more analytical and not as smooth textured. Yet I don't miss any of... |
