Do you adjust your subwoofer I have a separate set-up for movies with a cheap sub that works just fine. I never touch it. But, I am an occasional tweaker of my REL t9/x sub in the main system. First, it depends on what speakers I am using at the moment. If the Snell Typ... | |
Tubes for Rogue Audio Perseus Magnum Preamplifier @topten I know this is a very old thread but I am in the same boat right now and wondering what you came up with. Thanks | |
What do/did you do for a living? @ozzy Thanks for the kind words! | |
How easily can you distinguish between different DACs? @audiodwebe Like you, I have not heard many dacs. Started with a Jolida glass dac and it really didn't sound any better than my MacBook. Bought a Bluesound and started streaming with that. Heard a slight improvement to my ears. Then on to a Dena... | |
What do/did you do for a living? Fun and interesting thread! I’m a plant guy for the last 30 years. Grower, garden center manager, now landscape designer/sales for the last 16 yrs. I’m 57 and was hoping to retire at my current position but landscaping is a crap show these days w... | |
Another Golden Ear test. Geez, is there alcohol involved in many posts lately? I think I need some more whiskey to catch up to the OP. | |
What was your first record? Cheap Trick Live at Budokan Played on my ultra low end TT/8 track combo unit. Can't remember the brand to save my soul! | |
Taxation using PP G&S Thanks for all of the responses. You guys are great. Sounds like with the small time stuff I deal with there should be no problems. Regards | |
Does it make sense to "ignore low ball offers"? If the offer is not totally low-balled I will usually try to negotiate. But, I always respond just to be polite. Are low-ballers a PITA? Sure, but being polite is pretty easy. I always try to remember and take the high road so to speak. Cas... | |
Odyssey Audio Kismet Mono Blocks @soix Thanks for the info. I will look into Liberty. | |
Matching the cartridge to the phono stage @ajones82 I was like you a couple of years ago. Wanted to get into vinyl again but had no idea. Back in the day I just put a record on and dropped the needle! Never knew there was so much to learn. Still don't know much about the specs, numb... | |
Are Sales Down If my recent experience is any indication, I'd say sales are indeed down. I've had an ARC tube pre listed for 5 months now. Really, all I've had is low-ballers. ARC gear usually goes pretty quickly and for decent prices as far as I've seen over... | |
Odyssey Audio Kismet Mono Blocks @soix That is always a great question isn't it. I enjoy imaging and soundstaging overall I think. Instrument separation and air/space always puts a smile on my face. That's probably why I prefer tubes. My Rogue tube amp/pre combo is the best... | |
Odyssey Audio Kismet Mono Blocks Thanks for the replies. Wow if the Odysseys are a little smoother up top that would be something! One of the best attributes about the Hegel, IMO, is the smooth presentation. I would have to sell the Hegel to purchase the Kismets. Something I'... | |
Speaker upgrade for Primaluna EVO 300 - Looking to find some audio nirvana bliss! @soix Man I wish those Devores were in Chicago. I'd probably jump on them! |
