| Mid sized room -Full range vs Monitor Given your room size, you can still accomodate a full-range floorstander. The only question is how large can they go. I had no problems previously with Sonus Faber Grand Pianos in my smallish 11'W x 17'L room. However, in one review by John Atkins... | |
| Bryston or Outlaw Bryston.Our local PMC dealer used Bryston electronics to drive all PMC range of speakers on demo. You can consider Bryston's integrated as the 3B-ST/SST may be a slight overkill for your TB-2's. | |
| What SS Dac , Bel Canto,Benchmark, ????? Audioengr,Any idea how to differentiate between the revised and older units? The face plate of the older units are larger than the revised ones? Or we can tell from the serial numbers?Thanks in advance. | |
| Need help generating a short list Seadweller,I have owned the Sonic Frontiers Line 1, and you might want to consider upgrading the preamp as an option. I find the dynamics to be little flat with the SF pre. Just an opinion. | |
| My system is bright? I need help. thanks Think you've answered your own problem. Since you've got good results with your previous gear in the same room, it is obvious that your current ultra-revealing electronics have too much of a good thing. You didn't get any brightness in your previo... | |
| My system is bright? I need help. thanks Tvad, you've summed it up nicely. Speaker positioning is not the only issue he didn't get optimum sound from his system. He didn't have a dedicated room and most importantly there is little or no provisions made to room treatments as brought up ea... | |
| Questions for specialists on “warmth” Your humour in your thread made me burst into laughter for a while. Anyway...I was quite mixed up with adjectives/hifi jargons used in description as well but got that sorted out now. cold=bright=harshrevealing=neutralwarm=*can't think of any syno... | |
| My system is bright? I need help. thanks Since you have tried various speaker placement and the brightness is still prevalent, it's down to the electronics. The synergy between your speakers and the Musical Fidelity amp, in my opinion and some others, is the culprit. You can of course tr... | |
| My system is bright? I need help. thanks I agree with Tvad wholeheartedly. Speaker placement and the room itself have the most impact on the perceived brightness apart from your electronics. Cables have the least effect and should only be addressed when you've sort out the rest ie. speak... | |
| Meridian 508.24 problem Strooper, before you send your player for repair, try cleaning the lens with a dry cotton bud. If this method fails I think you need to give Meridian a call. | |
| What should be the first component when upgrading? I guess your budget dictates which component you should be upgrading first ie. the cheapest one. I think it doesn't matter which component you should be upgrading first since you're upgrading everything in the end aren't you? If I were to choose, ... | |
| cdp's you had glitches with An old Sony player from the 80's that start giving problems going into the 5th year of use. Even the technician gave up and refused to attend to the piece of junk after several times of servicing and repair. It eventuall7y ended up in the garbage ... | |
| HELP...Bubble Wrap Marks in PIANO BLACK Speakers?? Just a note, normally the professional that refurbishes pianos would advise against a total repaint job since they wouldn't look good compared to original even though they have done a good job. In most cases they would try to grind off and polish ... | |
| HELP...Bubble Wrap Marks in PIANO BLACK Speakers?? I have no clue how the bubble wrap can leave permanent marks on the piano finish of the speakers. Since you have tried various methods without any degrees of success, I would stop trying. You won't know as you may do more harm than good. As some p... | |
