| Options to improve digital sound @mswale I feel it’s important I clarify what I mean by “decoupling” with regards to hifi music streaming. For Standard data networks or WiFi, this does not matter. I view the chain of devices + cabling that run from outside your home to your ... | |
| Options to improve digital sound @mswale Appreciate the detailed information. The discussion of data network noise and implementation is not a very exciting topic and clearly full of debate. I think, It should be important to those looking to improve their digital music exper... | |
| Options to improve digital sound Hi. Instead of suggesting various streamer, endpoints, cable or configuration options, I’ll try to briefly breakdown various areas to consider that create interference in the cable/ network path affecting audio resolution (sound floor). That way... | |
| so bass traps in corners do nothing, it seems we have been fooled. or are being fooled. Thank you seanheis1 & ozzy62. Everything you see in the room was designed, hand built and installed by me. Crazy amount of work! Well worth it! Total weight of all the material close to 3000lbs. Mass/ weight, proper design and placement all p... | |
| so bass traps in corners do nothing, it seems we have been fooled. or are being fooled. @seanheis1 The front wall, front wall sides and ceiling above front wall required a lot of low frequency management. To control 125hrz to 250hrz issue, ceiling required proper treatment. https://www.audiogon.com/systems/8747 | |
| so bass traps in corners do nothing, it seems we have been fooled. or are being fooled. I can’t help but chime in. I’ll steer clear of speaking about Dennis specifically. I have spoken to him on the phone and met him in person at an audio show. I have my opinions but no need to elaborate. It seems we have moved from corner bass t... | |
| so bass traps in corners do nothing, it seems we have been fooled. or are being fooled. I spent 4+ years personally building my own dedicated listening room. The room is 13.5’ x 15.5’ x 9’. (I consider this a small room.) The room was originally our separate dining room. I closed it off and stripped down to studs on front and rear wa... | |
| Acoustic treatment question: do you agree with Dennis Foley that $46k to $65k is required? Dmaddox77. Congratulations on finally receiving your boxes. I’ve nearly blanketed my entire room with activated carbon panels, including ceiling, so I’m fully aware of the effectiveness. Where did you place the carbon boxes....sidewalls, front wal... | |
| Acoustic treatment question: do you agree with Dennis Foley that $46k to $65k is required? Lemonhaze. I measured the room response with a small omnimic and cell phone. I was fortunate enough to build, change, add, subtract, listening and listening again as I worked through the build process. This gave me the ability to hear what worked ... | |
| Acoustic treatment question: do you agree with Dennis Foley that $46k to $65k is required? hilde45,Thanks! I had zero building experience when I started. Never built a thing in m life. Where there's a will, there is way. Anything for good music. | |
| Acoustic treatment question: do you agree with Dennis Foley that $46k to $65k is required? Brownsfan1, Yes it is possible to purchase the carbon and possibly the plans from Dennis, but not sure if he still sells his build plans. I carefully combed through each one of his videos trying to reverse engineer everything he designed. I've fig... | |
| Acoustic treatment question: do you agree with Dennis Foley that $46k to $65k is required? I thought I would jump in on this conversation about Acoustic Fields product cost. I spent the last four years converting my dinning room into an exceptional world class dedicated listening room. I started my journey watching and reading as much o... | |
| If you stream music from the internet, I can't recommend this more highly I’ve been using fiber optic between network switch and DAC for almost two years. For me, it’s such an improvement over straight Ethernet, I’ll never go back. Galvanic isolation/ separation is probably the key here. As with most things hifi, doing ... | |
| Is this how a Subwoofer Crossover is supposed to work? I’ve spent the last several weeks attempting to integrate 3 separate subwoofers into my listen room along with my Moab speakers. From what I understand, an external crossover unit like the JL Audio CR-1 is essential to getting accurate time alignm... | |
| I bought some Owens Corning 703. Now what? You have the gift of room volume/ space. No level of acoustic treatment can make up for lack of room volume. Experimenting is a means to an end. Enjoy the journey. Yes, set expectations accordingly, but don't settle for less than what you think is... |
