| USB Cables: beginning the rabbit hole @jeffreyw That's good to know. I bought an Inakustic Reference USB with my Innuos streamer. I've not owned any other higher quality USB cables to compare. | |
| R2R next? Don't like ESS https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/650186437-gustard-r26-r2r-dac/ Gustard R26 dac for $825. It's an r2r dac. | |
| Movie/film suggestions. Something About Mary is a great comedy. Ben Stiller and Cameron Diaz. Young Frankenstein. Strange Brew. Mouse Hunt. All comedies. Beer makes them better. 😅 | |
| System Advice If you aren't streaming, you should try it. A Wiim dac/streamer or a Bluesound Nano would be an inexpensive way to get into streaming. | |

| R2R next? Don't like ESS @dclone I went from a Gustard R26 to a Gustard X-30 (four ESS9039SPRO chips). I was afraid that I would miss the warmth of the R26. I don't. The X-30 is very impressive. I'm sensitive to sibilance and high frequencies. The X-30 is very detaile... | |
| R2R next? Don't like ESS @carousel I agree. An R26 might be found used. There's one on US Audio Mart for $1000, but they might take less. I recently upgraded to a Gustard X-30 and I'm very happy with it. I haven't heard the A26, but I'm sure it's nice. @iseland +1. ... | |
| Subwoofer with center channel @soix A speaker level connection with the SVS and NHT would be difficult. I'm currently sending the LFE channel to the SVS via a REL wireless transmitter. And, I don't really have a great spot for the NHT. It would be interesting to try four su... | |
| Subwoofer with center channel @erik_squires Yes, I have three subs. Two REL S/510 for two channel connected by speaker level connections. These also connect to the LFE output on my surround processor. The REL has separate gain controls for speaker level and LFE level inputs... | |
| Subwoofer with center channel @mswale I do have the channel balance set correctly, I believe. My Onkyo generates a test tone and allows me to cycle through the channels and adjust the volume for each channel. I'm only doing 5.1, so it's pretty simple. I agree that a subwoof... | |
| Subwoofer with center channel @woots I went back through the menu on my Onkyo. It does have a crossover frequency adjustment for the center channel. I have it set at 60Hz, so I assume everything below that is going to the subwoofer? My Sonus Faber center channel speaker is ... | |
| Subwoofer with center channel @carlsbad2 I was wondering about that. | |
| Subwoofer with center channel I actually have three subs. Two REL that run in two channel and home theatre. A third larger SVS sub that is connected to the LFE channel for home theatre only. I was thinking that there was a crossover setting for center channel in my Onkyo su... | |

| HOW MUCH IS TOO MUCH TO SPEND ON A SYSTEM? IF YOU GET THE SOUND DOES IT MATTER? People spend a lot of money on booze, vacations, etc and don't think twice about it. I bought my first pair of Von Schweikert speakers in 1997 from money I saved by giving up alcohol for 10 years (it was necessary). People spend $50k on vehicl... |
