| Sopra No 2's or other alternatives? What sound characteristics are most important to you for speakers? | |
| Picking a speakers I’m using it 50/50 music and movies. Denon receiver and Denon 2 ch amp, that I want to replace for another 3 ch amp eventually. Very helpful info — thanks! Assuming your AVR has preamp outs as you’re already using a stereo amp, if I’m you I han... | |
| Speaker Jumper Cables Revisited Great post. Always thought highly of Wharfedale Diamonds, especially at their very reasonable price points, so nice to hear some confirmation of this. Thought I’d share my experience with jumpers that’s a bit of a different use case but made a ... | |
| Picking a speakers I’m familiar with the 804Ns and their bass capabilities are not much to write home about, and especially since you’re using a sub I think you’d be giving up more in sound quality than improving bass/dynamics. If you feel like upgrading the center... | |
| Ifi Zen Stream with Tidal Connect Frustration Thanks so much for the follow up, and I’ll have to revisit this now myself. Did iFi actually figure this out or did you figure it out some other way? Just curious cause they didn’t do squat for my very similar problem with Qobuz and mConnect+. Any... | |
| Speakers versus Balance vs Amplifier I’d first rule out you don’t have an equipment problem if you haven’t already done so. If you switch the speakers and the problem switches sides then there’s likely a speaker problem. Not sure if it works the same with electronics (maybe someone e... | |
| Picking a speakers Are you noticing a mismatch? If not and you’re happy I’d just stick with what you have. On paper there’s not a lotta difference between the HTM2 and 4S anyway. | |
| Advice on using a dac with my avr It’s ok. Some people are just slow learners but glad to see you finally might be getting it after the second go around — better late than never. | |
| How important are spikes? +1 @roxy54 I’m at the point where I’m just gonna ignore future emergingsoul threads — dude’s out of it and just way just out there, and where that is I have no idea and I don’t wanna know. Had enough of this nonsense. Peace out. | |
| Lyngdorf 3400 using external amp Honestly, I’d just contact Lyngdorf on this one and cut out the middleman (aka, us). They’ll probably answer your question completely and definitively in a few sentences. | |
| Centers - Go big or go home Very interesting! Always love hearing new thoughts/info like this, especially when it’s born out of actual hands-on experience and based on something real. Can’t wait to hear more! | |
| XLR cables for a reasonable price? What a great system! Congrats!!! I’ve heard Ralph @atmasphere say here many times that if components follow the “balanced standard” (that I think he may have a patent for) the differences between interconnects becomes basically nonexistent and t... | |
| How important are spikes? @emergingsoul There’s not one thing you said that I agree with. Not one. | |
| XLR cables for a reasonable price? I would like some recommendations on reasonably priced XLR cables that give excellent sonic performance. “Excellent sonic performance” doesn’t really help as we all hear and value certain sonic traits differently. What specific sonic charact... | |
| Ifi Zen Stream with Tidal Connect Frustration I have tickets open with Ifi but no clear explanation so far. Yeah, iFi customer support is basically non existent so don’t hold your breath. I had a similar experience using Qobuz with mConnect+, and while it worked initially it went south i... |
