| Just a thought here but,,,,,,xlr adapters? I’ve been told by @bigkidz who designs high-end DACs that you’re better off using AES/EBU (the digital version of XLR) converters than using just RCA connectors. Could be wrong, so hopefully he’ll chime in here. | |
| I'm not sure what I need I agree with @auxinput an Anthem AVM-60 or other used Anthem AVP that has the features/connections you need would be a great choice for your setup if in budget. | |
| Cullen Cable I got two Cullen power cords a couple months ago. Took around two weeks to arrive. | |
| Which amp for B&W 805 D3 and HTM2 D3 speakers - Rotel RMB-1555? No. Just...no. Yamaha better tan Denon. Listen to me!!! | |
| Inexpensive speaker cables: any experience? Used Acoustic Zen Satori. End. Set. Match. | |
| Any thoughts or recommendations regarding the Emotiva SE8 or REL subwoofer? I am not a bass freak, and would be more concerned about integration and overall balance. First, and most importantly, get two subs for music, not one. If it’s me, SVS has dual SB1000 subs at a discount under $1000 with a truly risk-free (inclu... | |
| Which amp for B&W 805 D3 and HTM2 D3 speakers - Rotel RMB-1555? First, DON’T buy an Onkyo. Their reliability is atrocious, and worse, they’re now owned by a hedge fund or private equity firm that will only make it worse going forward. Next, and this will be a bit of a surprise because it sure was to me, I work... | |
| Maggie 1.7i's lack detail. Ideas? Gotta ask, if you had the amp why did you buy a Marantz receiver and not just a stereo preamp? IME, both Marantz and B&K skew to the warmer, fuller side and less detailed up top, so I don’t think either are helping you there. Another issue i... | |
| Power Conditioner question I currently have a Synergistic Research PowerCell 8 UEF. Wondering if a move to Transparent Reference Power Isolator would yield any benefit. Ooh. Not sure I’d do that unless you’re looking to change the sound signature toward the warmer, smo... | |
| Cullen Cable Looks like he sold his business to Wyred 4 Sound. He called it a merger, but the important thing is that he’ll still be making cables and generating new products. | |
| I need a subwoofer recomendation The SVS subs are nice, but I would say they have a particular sonic signature that is popular with the "consumer electronics home theater crowd". It's sort of a larger-than-life type boomy of sound that a lot of consumers find attractive, but it... | |
| Headphone amp? Pass makes a good headphone amp, as does Luxman. | |
| Need new headphone setup. Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones, arguably the best on the market Maybe the best noise-cancelling headphones, but that’s about it. | |
| Speakers that sound like Usher Be-20s/10s @steve59 What did u replace the Ushers with, and what are the improvements? | |
| I need a subwoofer recomendation I should say I have no experience with Hsu subs current offerings, but they’re great subs and a great value. My reason for recommending the SVS SB1000s is that I own an SB2000 and it’s incredible. It’s stuffed behind my TV and shakes my whole do... |
