Wilson Audio- The rest of the story i will take this a bit off topic, but hope to stimulate some thinking for owners of older wilson products.i have the WP6s, which i'd characterize as highly dynamic, but disjointed, aggressive and a bit grungy...like a lot of high frequency trash i... | |
Is my room too small FWIW, my room is 11*15, speakers along long wall, my seat < 1' from rear wall, which is treated w/ 4" thick bass panels behind my head, reflective side out; the ear ignores reflections < 10ms which a panel close to the head provides in mid-u... | |
Is my room too small put room treatment in, and you will be fine. see my system pics. without room treatment, its will never be much beyond midfi. you listen to your speakers interacting with your room being fed by your electronics, in that order. | |

Review: Pass Labs XA60.5 monobloks Amplifier just b/c the amps act differently when plugged into same outlet does not mean that DC isn't the problem. could simply be one amp is more susceptible to DC. get a multimeter and check if you're getting DC out of the outlet.if no DC and you'd like t... | |
Review: Pass Labs XA60.5 monobloks Amplifier to test to see if its ground related, simply run a thin piece of wire from one chassis to the other (ie, use chassis screws, NOT the speaker binding posts). if they're on diff AC circuits, i would expect this to be the problem.if thats not it, you... | |
can mundorf supreme caps be used for AC filtering pls post your correspondence chrissain, i'm looking at using the same caps in an AC filtering application myself. | |
can mundorf supreme caps be used for AC filtering no. no current limiting in AC filters other than trannys & inductors. my fave conditioners use neither. also, suspect that putting caps from H/N to ground would also help. but do more research.also, may want to encapsulate the caps in flamepro... | |

Pass XA30.5 enough power for Wilson Sophia 2? fwiw, using the xa60.5s on my WP6s in a room 15*11*8 (ie small), i am seldom able to get the meters to move (ie leaving class A), but it happens sometimes. easy to play music 90db for extended sessions if distortion is low enough. | |
any audiophile guitarists out there? one of the things i'm finding my audiophile ears are telling me is that most pedals are absolute crap and shouldn't be used. granted, i've tried about 4. only one i liked was a $200 modified keeley tube screamer 808. pretty awesome.that said, i li... | |
