| The problem with absorption panels- it kills the fine details Geez, never expected to see the word 'horrifying' so much in an audiophile thread. Now I'm a little horrified to listen to my system! | |
| Recommendations for good sounding streamer My first foray into a separate streamer was the new Bluesound n130. Definitely a step up from my Macbook air. Super easy setup and works great with my iphone. Then, recently purchased a used Ares 2 dac. I was surprised at the huge step up it wa... | |
| What now? Seems like you understand it's not an ideal situation - that's good. You mentioned Vienna Acoustics Bach. I love my Bach Grands, listening to them right now. Warm ish presentation with silky smooth tweeter and great mids. Beautiful rosewood fi... | |
| Eeny, meeny, miny, moe... Catch that often elusive something by the toe. Right now it's Hegel h360 int. with LRS or VA Bach Grands. Nice combo but will be switching out soon for my Rogue Atlas magnum tube amp and Perseus tube pre. Or maybe my DNA .5 and the Perseus? Or... | |
| Magnepan LRS in the house! @hartf36 Thanks for that | |
| Technics SL-1800 mk2 @boothroyd Thanks for that. Seems like pretty much the same specs as the 1200 but obviously not the same machine. The 1800mk2 is $500 on CL. Original MSRP of $300. LOL | |
| Magnepan LRS in the house! Yes, nice job @rbertalotto. I am not a metalworker but do enjoy woodworking in my small basement shop. So, I'm going to use some sturdy oak for my stands. I don't think the angles in your design will work with wood though. We'll see | |
| Do You Tell Others How Much You Have Invested in Your System? @northman Very funny! Geez I would be delighted if anybody even knew about my hobby. Let alone ask any questions about it! 🤣 | |
| Magnepan LRS in the house! Great story, and great speakers! Really one of the best values out there IMO. I was lucky enough to find a near mint set locally a couple of years ago. Running them with a Hegel h360 and and Rel T9x sub. Sounds great to my ears. Looking forwa... | |
| Static attack! Time to get the humidifiers going @dekay Yes, it does take some practice. But, by George, I think I've got it! So what is your preference, the wool or rubber? My Rega has felt (is that wool?) but I've been considering trying cork or something else. I think the felt holds a lot... | |
| Static attack! Time to get the humidifiers going @mikelavigne Thanks for the product recommendations. I will look into them. As far as the Zstat doing 💩 goes, I was never sure it was doing anything either. But, this little arm swing attraction thing of the dust brush kinda proves it for me. ... | |
| THE IMPORTANCE OF TIME DOMAIN RESPONSE MUST READ Geez, not again.😭 | |
| Anything close to Hegel H360 but smaller/lighter? Well, I can vouch for the h360 being a great amp. I just love the way it drives my LRS and old Snells. But putting it in a suitcase and shlepping it onto a plane? I would not be into that. Unless you are young, of above average strength, and h... | |
| Looking at a used Nuprime IDA- 8 integrated. Thanks soix and jjss49. It's on local CL for $500. I don't think I can go wrong! As long as it checks out of course. | |
| Is blasphemous Music ok? Hmmmm, lots of spirited discussion from an obvious(?) trolling post. I too am surprised this thread has not gone totally off the rails yet. +1 with whoever said it's best to keep this site about audio and music. I have pretty strong opinions o... |
