| Shorting Balanced Amp Imputs (pin1-3) A couple of comments. Despite having heard of shorting the balanced connectors, I wouldn't do it as they are usually active along with the rca connectors at the same time; i.e., they are always both on. The other is that it's really surprising to ... | |
| Anthem AVM-2 Any thoughts / comparisons Dhodges, well if you want the single unit to do as good as the Krell pre, the pre/pro has to have an analog pass-through (which the Anthem does) that overall is as good as the Krell pre in stereo. It might be a stretch for you to expect that quali... | |
| Anthem AVM-2 Any thoughts / comparisons The specs on the unit seems very interesting. I've been unsucessful in finding any information beyond what's on their web site. How do you find running the Vantas through the KRC2 tape loop? | |
| Room Correction Systems? Pls1, If you don't mind my asking, how much did it cost for the engineer for 2 days. It seems like you did the entire setup the right way. Very interesting! | |
| Aerial 10 T vs Aerial 8 B Do any of you guys with more recent 10Ts have instructions for the sound anchor stands?? I didn't get any, and I'm told there are none. Thanks. | |
| Severe Imaging Problem One thing that the xlo disk helps with is checking every possility of phase probs, along with the solutions. If that doesn't seem to be the difficulty concerning l and r imaging, then you might want to consider hiring an acoustician. The guy will ... | |
| Digital Interconnect - Recos? Alex, Did Kevin Halverson REALLY say that all digital ICs are the same?????????? | |
| Aerial 10 T vs Aerial 8 B I agree with Tswhitsel. Samski, search the threads for 10T to read what some of us say about those. One problem with the 8b is it's overpowering bass and difficulty in proper set-up. I have the 10Ts and can't find anything wrong with them. As far ... | |
| Rock and Roll Speakers Yes, it is really nice to know that so many of us do listen to rock!!!! Having just bought the Aerial 10Ts, I better not listen to the avalon eidolons. Perhaps for another system... | |
| Aerial 10 T and EAD Poermaster 1000 ? Sound_decisions: Thanks for the comments. I've got a clarification question for you. My ears are at slightly different heights depending on the angle of my reclining listening chair; it's extremely adjustable, even height. Regardless, my ears are ... | |
| Burn-in time Vs. Getting used to a sound DK, my friend, dust bunnies don't rule here as far as the cables are concerned, since she finds it so easy to move the cables to clean/vacuum! Fortunately, she cannot move the equipment rack, amp, monitor, and speakers! Accidentally pushing button... | |
| Burn-in time Vs. Getting used to a sound DK: Moving the cables from their original resting position is enough to disturb the formed dielectric. However, one may not be able to hear the difference. I do hear it whenever I listen after my housekeeper was here. I doesn't take very long for ... | |
| Aerial 10 T and EAD Poermaster 1000 ? You guys with 10Ts: What kinds of room treatments have you been using? And do you use the stands? I don't have any room treatments. I have it set with room objects doing absorption and reflection. I've got concrete floors (carpeted) and walls. I'm... | |
| Biggest hype-worst tweak Good thread guys!! Dekay, if you think quarters on the speakers is cool, switch them to gold eagles. Oh, if Sam Tellig even found why that does something, he'd say buy never has. I think its whacko, DK! | |
| Biggest hype-worst tweak Well, I feel a bit strange mentioning this one. It has to do with putting crumpled aluminum foil in the corners of my living (listening) room. The purpose of this is to protect myself from unfriendly aliens and to sharpen high frequency focus. ;) ... |
