| Why is Monster M1000i interconnect overlooked? Dave_b,I am not surprised something more ordinary from Monster cable sounded better. I have always been suspicious of $20K cable rigs that change the character of the sound. Happy listening with your new cheaper cables. great that you get enjoymen... | |
| Behringer DEQ2496 - worth using in hi-end system? Bravo Tvad, Eldartford and WarrenhCould not agree more. I actually use the PEQ from the Behringer (feedback destroyer pro) . It works great. It is even cheaper! I manually set this up and just use it for ultra LF frequency adjustments but there is... | |
| Amp with a hard,clean and cold sound... 4B SST | |
| whats your idea of loud music. Old thread here but I agree with Tvad...105db continuous at the listening position is in the range of live music with peaks an extra 10db above that. Above this level I find my ears protesting and I would never listen for long periods at this leve... | |
| Review: EMM Labs DAC6e Signature Edition DA converter Oneobygon,Great review. I enjoyed your enthusiam for EMM Labs gear - no question that this is undeniably some of the best gear on the planet. Great that you get such an improvement in "clarity", "articulation", and "soudstage depth" on an upgrade.... | |
| CAN I RUN 50HZ AMP ON 60HZ? I have not had any problems in the US running a 220 Watt per channel power amp and preamp (designed for 50 Hz 220 V)with a step up transformer. The current demand will be roughly double what it would normally use at 230 V, which may be higher than... | |
| What are the specs of a full range speaker? Macrojack,Others have answered your question very well and better than I could."Small" can be of the order of a few feet at low frequencies.As Dave points out above, a small amount of EQ (Behringer, Rane, Rives Parc or other PEQ) can help smooth o... | |
| How can power cords make a difference? This question is for those of you that have experienced huge improvements with changing a power cord (and not the objectivists or unbelievers who refuse to hear any difference);Aren't you the least bit concerned that your audio setup might be over... | |
| How can power cords make a difference? Jafox,I read your interesting thread on Power Conditioner to the Rescue and how you had very little prior sucess with power cords. This is probably because the Eclipse gave you a proper stable electrical supply and allowed your components to perfo... | |
| How can power cords make a difference? Changing a power cord could make a difference. It simply means that either 1) the audio equipment is too sensitive to the input power supplied or 2) the electrical supply is falling outside the acceptable range for the audio equipment.Good audio e... | |
| What are the specs of a full range speaker? I have to agree with Mdhoover and some others who are arguing against the "greater frequency reposnse is necessarily better" viewpoint. Quality reproduction in the 80 to to 12Khz range is more desirable than a speaker that is "flat" from 20 to 20 ... | |
| What are the specs of a full range speaker? For me above 15.5 Khz I hear nada....so I would agree that linearity in higher frequency response in a system is not very important to me at least above this level.I respect that some can hear up to 20 KHz and when I was younger I could hear somew... | |
| who surprised and who disappointed Disappointed: Most "pop" artists disappoint in live performances...Duran Duran, Spice Girls, Dido, Rod Stewart are some of the worst I can recall but there are many others. They depend on good producers/engineers and many takes IMHO. It is mostly ... | |
