| HELP! I bought equipment drunk, don’t know anything. Ronniewills, not to be flippant, as I believe you're being honest, and you could have done much worse in the purchase department! And I get it, I've had the drinking issues as well. But have you considered open mike night at comedy club, I love t... | |
| Noise floors I've tried something similar, a high back chair, higher than my ears. My listening room at end of house, front wall at outside wall, so at listening position virtually all house generated noise behind listening position. The high back chair masked... | |
| The stereo sounds fine, music is great, but Jeff Bezos came back to earth. I predict this thread will be gone soon enough, all the nuance of Whitey on the Moon lost by tired old tripes of left vs right. Such enlightenment has never been observed. See, I told you the Bezos and Branson flights would bring about world peace. | |
| The stereo sounds fine, music is great, but Jeff Bezos came back to earth. Whiteys on the moon, thanks for that! And we know Jeff and Richard Branson will come back as changed men, the infinitesimal man in the universe thing, mass world improvement right around the corner. Such enlightenment has never been observed. Lets... | |
| Fear of volume control Pauly, thanks for that, explains much in the global sense. And then on the micro front, I find individual recordings or cuts, even on same album/cd (recording levels variable within that single album/cdn) require individual volume settings, someth... | |
| Rank the tweaks, geeks! In the end I can't possibly rank, at one time or another I might have said any of the items you've mentioned as the most important. All links in chain are important, improving the weakest is entirely variable within one's system at any single poin... | |
| klipshorn speakers I assume I could get my Klipschorns to measure better with digital processor, but at the cost of colorations of that processor, nothing that signal passes through doesn't have sound signature. I don't want a single change here from the status quo.... | |
| Noise floors keithsax, cool, I have 1970 MGB GT, so elemental and slow, gotta love it! | |
| Noise floors In order to mitigate or solve a problem, one must first identify that it is in fact a problem. Once identified as problem, you have a number of choices. You can ignore the problem, they say ignorance is bliss. You can admit there is a problem, dec... | |
| Noise floors I'm not really sure I agree on the greater the system resolution, the less ambient noise floor should matter. As I've attained ever increasing levels of resolution, the more these ambient noises bother me. I tended to listen at higher volumes when... | |
| Noise floors Speaking of vehicles, noise and internal combustion engines. I have 2021 Ducati Supersport S, Suzuki DRZ400 and 2011 Mustang GT modded to no end. They all make lots of noise, I may be guilty of imposing on someone's listening session. Still,I'm re... | |
| Noise floors So, assuming there is a listening room noise floor, would a room with 0db ambient noise level be best, would it have to be an anechoic chamber? There have been a couple posts here with practical advice for lowering listening room noise levels, tha... | |
| Noise floors Another thing, how much more ambient noise is added when you measure ambient sound with your system is on, no music, just idling. Is it 15db, 20db, 5db, if it was you'd have one lousy system. I bet it adds virtually nothing, and I hear people com... | |
| Noise floors Some of you are totally misunderstanding what I'm saying. I am not talking about the noise floor of the audio system. This is ONLY about the noise floor of one's listening room. With the stereo system OFF, I can measure the in decibels on my decib... | |
| Noise floors So true, just this morning measured my room. Steady state near 40db, with noises from active outdoor environment, into 60's. And I live in relatively quiet suburban area. Busy roads, tires on pavement, amazingly loud, can't imagine living close to... |
