| Reducing PC Jitter I suggest you read this thread at Head fi. It may help - good luck. | |
| High density fiberglass as bass absorber? See this Acoustic coefficents.Basically thickness or volume is FAR more important that pcf. I'd make sure you are above 1.5 pcf and not more than 6 pcf and get the maximum volume you can. Since you want broadband absorption it is the volume/thickn... | |
| Musicians? Unless you've got financial issues or a tin ear, I can't imagine not getting the piano tuned every 6 months. Perhaps you play regularly. None of my family does - although the wife and daughter did for a while about 8 years ago. The wife has decid... | |
| More convinced of analog than ever I'm with Tvad in that I think it all depends on the recording as to what medium is better. That is my view also. | |
| More convinced of analog than ever Never said that, never meant to imply that.Then I suggest you re-read your initial post starting from the title "More convinced of Analog than ever" with its description of how you heard the latest best possible digital has to offer and found it w... | |
| Musicians? I am rather embarrassed to say that our piano just got tuned after roughly 8 years. The good news is we have a gem. The guy who came collects pianos and owns a piano museum and was simply floored - he said our upright sounds like no other upright ... | |
| The Reeses Cup: components that come together perf Well I don't know about your WAF acceptance factor but a Fergie CDP is one helluva a CDP. | |
| More convinced of analog than ever Yawn. Sure. Hang on ...let me grab some popcorn. Repeat everyone all together now the mantra.... "Analog is good, no matter how cheap. Digital, no matter how expensive, is always bad." | |
| The Reeses Cup: components that come together perf BongoB,You are going for some heavy rotation there - you need a good streaming source for a warmer liquid sound - something like the Fergie CDP | |
| The Room, not us, determines our speaker choices Unfortunately, you have to just keep trying until it happens. You can do a lot to fix room problems with a lot greater chance of success than randomly trying speakers in the hope of finding one that is sufficiently bad or uneven in reponse so tha... | |
| The Room, not us, determines our speaker choices horses for courses...agreed | |
| The Reeses Cup: components that come together perf Your thoughts betray you, or is that simply a lightsaber in your pocket? | |
| Wadia, Benchmark Questions.. Yes you can plug the Benchmark straight into the power amp - it is quite capable of operation without a preamp. | |
| Subs: DIY Kit vs. Martin Logan I think ML use a custom 10" Scanspeak - it is a pretty good driver not a cheap one. ML designs gear to work with panels (fast) so it is probably more musical than most subs. | |
| The Reeses Cup: components that come together perf Personally, I like Benchmark DAC1 married with ATC actives. The thin sound of the DAC1 in the lower mids (compared to other digital sources) seem to mate well with ATC's. Detail is accentuated without any digital "harshness" although subjectively ... |
