| child-free environment? So far the posts range from "kids can't kill a krell" to "a krell could kill a kid" (paraphrasing of course). But one concept that is agreed upon unanimously is that the children are the top priority, whether from a safety or learning perspective.... | |
| entry into analog for naim/totem system Sorry, forgot budget: $2000, with $500 of that for the Stageline for my Supernait. | |
| child-free environment? It's great to hear how everyone relates the way they approach kids to their own childhood exposures to music and hi-fi. I grew up with one of those record players with built-in speakers, about the size of a coffin. I can remember putting the Chuck... | |
| child-free environment? You guys are speaking my language. Of course there's a selection bias determining who reads (and responds to) this post, but it warms my heart to see that no one yet has replied "yes" to kids and "no" they aren't allowed to use it. Corazon, you br... | |
| PS Audio PerfectWave DAC vs Bel Canto DAC3 Thanks to all who responded. I have now listened to the Bel Canto gear with the Joseph Audio RM25XL speakers, and the DAC3 did not sound anywhere near as good as the CD2, or as good as I have heard from the PW DAC through Triangle Quartet speakers... | |
| Help Speakers trapped on bookshelves Eldartford - that sounds too easy. For now I'll use the spectrum analysers on the sides of my head - much lower-tech and no user's manual, but that's what makes this fun, right? Dead horse flogged. | |

| Help Speakers trapped on bookshelves I emailed the folks at Totem and they suggested isolation cones. Now I have to collect opinions on good isolation devices, such as the vibrapods that Ghunter recommended. Any thoughts? One would think they're all pretty much equivalent, but I know... | |
| Help Speakers trapped on bookshelves Lowfidelity - thanks for keeping this all in perspective with the twin comments. I agree that they are much more important than speaker placement!Eldragon - can't mount them on the ceiling: the bookshelves go all the way to the ceiling and the roo... | |
| Help Speakers trapped on bookshelves Thanks again. Per Newton's recommendation, I removed the books that were packed all around the speakers and played with the toe-in. A bit better. But then I read Eldartford's EQ suggestion and a few other threads about equalization and decided to ... | |
| Help Speakers trapped on bookshelves Thanks for all your responses so far. I really love the Rainmakers in my price range, and I'd rather get a different room set-up than get different speakers at this point. Again, I consider this a temporary arrangement. As Mechans said, we'll need... |
