| No more "High End" for me...Back to Reality Audio Thanks everyone for your words of Wisdom (not joking actually). I had a friend over this afternoon (the owner of the R3’s actually). He couldn’t believe how much Bass the Speakers were generating. I put a very basic EQ profile into the miniDSP as ... | |
| No more "High End" for me...Back to Reality Audio Yeah. I just can’t believe how good my system sounds with such cheap "not Audiophile" stuff. I’m listening to MoFo’s SACD of Tapestry at the moment just enjoying the music and not giving a Rat’s Ass how it’s getting to the KEF R3’s. Did I just le... | |
| No more "High End" for me...Back to Reality Audio That's awesome @pesky_wabbit ! Enjoy my friend. Tubes ain't for Boobs. I had my fun with them (Jolida 3502p with KT150's). A friend lent me a pair of McIntosh MC30's for a little while. Very nice Amplifiers but for what they are going for now. Not... | |
| No more "High End" for me...Back to Reality Audio @mrskeptic Overpriced and overhyped. I’ve heard them played through their own DAC verses external. External DAC’s always won. My friend picked up an $18 Dollar BDP-80 (? - not sure). Anyways he drives his DAC with that $18 Dollar machine as his Tr... | |
| No more "High End" for me...Back to Reality Audio I’m running loaner KEF R3’s and they are Dull as F until I connected a pair of ICE Power 1000W@4ohm Amplifiers with a miniDSP EQ that I gently boosted the Treble from 8k on up and another gentle boost from 100Hz on down. Passband I did not touch. ... | |
| For all you Bose 901 Haters! @roxy54 Top right is a 1972 Series II Sealed Box (it used to be my Center Channel). On the left is a Continental also a sealed box design. The other Continental has a bad driver or two inside. The bottom 901's are from 1968 Series I. | |
| For all you Bose 901 Haters! Wow ! All the haters can just KMBCA then. Added GRS Planar Magnetics front and back with miniDSP EQ’s for the room. Two ICE Power ASW-1000’s (@4ohms) Stacked Baby ! https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipNe-38-5uHCgOmMXa2MK7mhUU5Lw_zl5Yk1JOm9-... | |
| what does this mean? Yeah. I've written the guidebook book on what NOT to do with Leo's old BOSC Amplifiers. Personally, I prefer the Ultra Amplifier. More WPC and Tons of protection. Yes, leave the Amp on all the time is fine if your Preamp or Line out from an AVR/ ... | |
| Vote Your Ranking -If you have an opinion on this digital subject 1) DSD/SACD discs 2) 192 or 96kHz/24 Bit files and DVD-Audio/BluRay Discs 3)Red Book CD that’s been properly remastered/re-issued (e.g. 1994 Bob Ludwig Rolling Stones Collector’s Edition Atlantic Remasters/Re-Issues) 4) AmazonHD and Neil Young ... | |
| Dedicated Circuits - Subpanel importance? @lowrider57 Yes and the stupid thing is I have a soft start circuit board that I bought (and tested) off of eBay which is residing inside an incomplete Amplifier project that I’m working on. I’m sure if I would have “Jerry rigged” the AC power bet... | |
| Dedicated Circuits - Subpanel importance? I ran 10AWG stranded for my Audio only equipment using flexible Armored Conduit (AC) cable that my local electrical supply house provided me. He sold me the stranded 10AWG separately for the AC cable. What a pain in the Ass to fish 3 wires (H,N,GN... | |
| Dr. Johnny Fever from WKRP in Cincinnati has signed off :-( To me personally, it my favourite Sitcom of all time. I grew up with all those characters. As a pre-teen/teen, my friends and watched every episode and talked about it at school the next day. You loved all the characters but Johnny was always my f... | |
| Oh Ye of Little Format Ok. About 3 years ago, I met Gus Skinas up in his Boulder Studio upstairs at the PS Audio factory. An amazing and very nice man to talk to. Did a great one hour Zoom session with our gang of six 2 years ago. Anyways. My comment to Gus was. How in... | |
| Can one have too many tube components in a system? I'd been 100% solid state up until a year or so ago. 1st it was my eBay score STAX SRM-007tA driving my Koss/Drop 95/X Electrostatic Headphones. This led to my trading in ALL my PS Audio Stellar Amplifiers for a BAT VK50-SE (with enough to spare ... | |
| Changes in DAC Presentation - Need Advice When I had the Terminator on loan for a week. On some material I never noticed a difference between it and my “Forever DAC”, the PS Audio DirectStream DAC Sr. On others, it was night and day. The Denafrips was forward and a tad “shouty” on some tr... |
