| You are there vs. They are there @spenav Exactly. Why should we hang ourselves up over this false notion we must adhere to some unknown reference. Now I can accept we have reference for things like timbre with acoustic instrument, but sound stage/presentations. Do whatever is ple... | |
| Remote control for those that don’t have one! I have pre with dual manual volume control, with my Sabre chip dac I can do fine volume control with dac. With my R2R dac I have to manually set volume, gripper could be solution. | |
| Vintage turntable question Don't have info on Denon, but I have Technics SP10 MkII, much support for this vintage tt. I purchased mine as bare tt, no arm or plinth, power supply and cosmetics refurbished. Always good idea to replace electrolytic caps with any vintage electr... | |
| Denafrips offer to replace my faulty Pontus 15th, for a replacement fee? First off, what is percentage of faulty Denafrips equipment? In perusing the web I see faulty/defective products from manufacturers based all around the world. Furthermore, see bad servicing, support of these products. So I'm supposed to write off... | |
| Sunshine, Lollipops And Rainbows I recall a time when sunshine, lollipops and rainbows seemed to be a 'real' possibility. Hippies/counterculture with their illusion/delusions of universal love and communal living was a thing. Sunshine pop was the 'straight' worlds interpretation ... | |
| You are there vs. They are there Yes on @spenav. We'd have to be at the recording venue and or mix down of recordings in order to arrive at some objectively determined presentation of sound stage. And then we have to consider the system recording was mixed down with, it may have ... | |
| My impressions of the much Hyped LAIV Harmony DAC (I ordered one and Listened to it.) There is some undeserved bashing going on here, nice to see some more reasonable, thoughtful posts. First off, the Harmony doesn't commit sins of commission, it provides for a very coherent, musical presentation, this with both usb and I2S input... | |
| You are there vs. They are there Close miked recordings/performers will be inherently more in room than those distantly miked, your system should reveal both. Hard panned info will also have more inherent projection into room. I've never had a system setup where all info behind p... | |
| You are there vs. They are there One can have both a more forward sound stage and/or projection of performers into one's listening space yet also maintain depth so there is a sense of the recording venue. I have horns SET amps and DHT preamps so this inherently more forward ss o... | |
| My impressions of the much Hyped LAIV Harmony DAC (I ordered one and Listened to it.) Harmony dac sound quality best via I2S with quality DDC that bypasses dac master clock, usb implementation on it very mediocre. | |
| Will these subwoofer be enough ? @hardhattg Your second post only reinforces two REL subs exactly what you're looking for. I was looking for the exact same thing in adding subs to my Khorns. I've had conventional subs with low level connections, dsp, far more powerful bass than t... | |
| Sunshine, Lollipops And Rainbows Ray Coniiff's version of 'Everything is Beautiful' for real cornball. Tennessee Ernie Ford's version of same song doesn't work at all. | |
| Has anyone sold over $35k worth of equipment over the net? How do you protect yourself? Having just recently gone through selling a fairly expensive car in doing my research really only a couple fail safe ways to do this. One is wire transfer, two is cash but you better have black light for checking forged bills. Anything printed on ... | |
| Will these subwoofer be enough ? I run modded Khorns with two REL T9X, this most coherent sub integration I've ever experienced. I don't need much from subs with the careful placement and complete seal of Khorns into corners, I've sealed at sides with water pipe insulation, cust... | |
| Jay’s Audio Lab is shutting down His focus on inefficient speakers and high wattage solid state amps doesn't really interest me. He does need a far larger listening room for the type of equipment he reviews, his present room also sounds far too damped unless it's mics he's using ... |
