Who thinks $5K speaker cable really better than generic 14AWG cable? Any opinions about fuses? | |
Advice Please...H/K or NAD? I've really enjoyed my 3490. I use it in my nearfield desktop setup, driving a pair of Era D4s. I got it because it had a build in DAC, great price, and good power. I've only had a chance to compare it to one other receiver - my Marantz SR5002. It... | |
Advice Please...H/K or NAD? Packbasket-This is interesting to me since I have an HK 3490 and have thought about upgrading - possibly to a NAD, based solely on reviews. How does the HK sound compared to the NAD?Ryan | |
A blasphemy....I know.... First off, pigments are a completely different conversation than the RGB light spectrum. The reason I say the extra yellow color is marketing bulls#t is because RBG are the primary colors of the entire spectrum of light that our eyes can see. You ... | |
A blasphemy....I know.... The TV might look great, but as far as adding yellow, it's gotta be pure marketing bullsh#t. The RGB spectrum already has yellow (it's just not in the acronym), so they're not adding anything. Ryan | |
Anyone use Next Acoustics room treatments? I tried emailing them also, but never got a response. I was able to talk to them (Dave Paxton) on the phone, and he was very helpful with suggestions about the best way to treat my room. He even suggested I send in a sketch of my room and he'd loo... | |
is a center channel really necessary?? I had a 5.1 system and went back to 2.1 because I wanted to use my surrounds in a desktop setup. So I sold my center channel. While I liked the 5.1, I really don't miss it at all. Voices are centered and perfectly intelligible. Sure, the cool effe... | |

Bookshelf speakers with the good bass. Totem Mani-2 have incredible bass with weight and accuracy that I doubt you can match in another bookshelf speaker. Ryan | |

I can't tell the difference This really makes me wonder, as I've never purchased a DAC, but often thought about it, if it's going to make much of a difference. DAC reviews make it seem like they make a world of difference, but when it comes down to it, do they? How do DACs r... | |
Computer Speakers - $200 -$300 price range Definitely Audioengine. I've owned the Klipsch Pro-media and Audioengine A2's. The Pro-media has a sub, so you get the low end, but the satellites are harsh and thin sounding and it's hard to get a cohesive sound across the whole spectrum. The A2'... | |
Any DACs have the Sabre 32bit D/A Converter ?? MrTennis,How do you like the esstech dac? Have you compared it to any others?Ryan | |
What is a good upgrade for a Nuforce Icon? You might check out Virtue Audio. The Virtue One Classic is $299 and puts out 87 watts. It's a small amp like the Icon. I've read it's performance is really improved by including the upgraded power supply, but that'll push it above your budget. An... |
