| Sonos or Mac Mini? Mac Mini user, here. Love it, and I am still boosting performance where I can.Like mitch2, above, I went for the Mojo upgrade. Just received it yesterday, in fact, and even at this early stage, it was a vast improvement. I expect it will get even ... | |
| Switches setting for M5-HP with the 2WQ at 80Hz I guess they started printing the settings right on the crossover cover sometime after yours were made.There's no 80K setting on mine, but there is a 50 and a 100.Assuming that they have not changed the switch settings*:For 50K, set 1, 3, 5, 7, 10... | |
| PS Audio DAC II or Bryston: two great machines Rfprice:According to Steve Nugent of Emperical Audio (check the site... tons of good information), you'd be much better converting the USB to I2S input on the PWD II. I've followed many of Steve's recommendations, and can boast great clarity and p... | |
| Levinson 352H, or Bryston 4BSST, or... Austinbob -- Thanks. I'll keep that in mind. | |
| Levinson 352H, or Bryston 4BSST, or... Dweller --The PS Audio Perfectwave DAC II has a pre in it.Yes, I'm aware that this might be impacting things. | |
| Subwoofer Newbie Looking for Recommendations I recently added a pair of Vandersteen 2Wq subwoofers, along with the MH-5P battery-biased crossovers, into my system that includes Magnepan 3.7 panels.The difference was nothing short of astounding.The Vandersteens do blend seamlessly; offloading... | |
| Something wrong with my 2.7QRs Hmmm, I wonder if this is the glue problem. Over time, the glue that adheres the wires to the panel can degrade and cause detachment. Rough handling during the move could've contributed.Magnepan could surely take the speakers in for a checkup or r... | |
| Do Vandy subs benefit from better cables? Thanks, Timo62. I'm still working on the placement. That said, the cable is way longer than I need, so I may cut it down today, still leaving room for a variety of placements.Can't spike yet until I know where they're going.And I got the M5-HP cro... | |
| PS Audio DAC II or Bryston: two great machines I have a PWD II. Love it! | |
| Subwoofer Question s Schubert - Well, large is relative, I suppose. They were larger than I had expected, but since they tend to be placed in a corner, it's not a problem in our space.I believe the Vandersteen setup is unique, but can't swear to it. But as Bondmanp sa... | |
| Do Vandy subs benefit from better cables? Thanks, Almarg. I believe that was the explanation that I first heard. I was speaking with my audio dealer guy yesterday, and when I asked how much of a difference better cable would make, he said, "Ehh, not much."Evidently, the cable supplied by ... | |
| Subwoofer Question s Schubert - Only yesterday, I picked up my second Vandersteen 2wq subwoofer. I love what they do for my system (digital source, PS Audio PWD MKII DAC/pre, Spectron Musician III amp, Magnepan 3.7 speakers.)Although the subs come with small crossover... | |
| Do Vandy subs benefit from better cables? The speaker cable provided by Vandersteen seems rather light. At least the sub has a fixed power cord, so I won't have to trial and error the PCs. | |
| Please help with Spectron Musician Issue. Thanks, Kernelbob... I think... :)Budgetary restrictions preclude the possibility of a second Musician III at this time, although I do appreciate your insights.One thing that surprised me: The Vandersteen 2wq subwoofers were the best possible addi... |
