| Looking for a new Subwoofer my 2 cents: everything about the Fyne F-702 screams that they go down to cover the bass frequencies (30Hz) and do it well. To add a sub to those without massive overlap is challenging. You either cut off the lows of a full range speaker with cro... | |
| moving to Exposure 3010s2d, internal DAC card or Denafrips Enyo R2R 15? Go with the Enyo. | |
| Looking for a new Subwoofer Definitely go with two subs over one, and I wouldn’t recommend the XR11 for music because it’s ported, and especially the lower JL Audio subs have known reliability issues so I’d cross them off too. If it’s me I’d get two Rythmik F12G subs that ar... | |
| Use of Denafrips Iris 12th DDC with computer If there were any dedicated unit that would give me the same visual enjoyment and convenience that I have now and improve the excellent sound I currently have, I would be interested. @firstonetallguy Here’s some good evidence from an above post... | |
| Six DAC Comparison The person who wrote " Comparison is the Thief of Joy" even though not being about audio in its context, certainly has created a saying that is worthy of taking on board when getting bogged down in audio equipment. I’ll counter with “Ignorance ... | |
| Transparent Audio power cords I’d call SMcAudio and see what they recommend given what you’re looking for. | |
| Challenged with Going from Integrated system to separates Very simple — just run an interconnect from the Marantz front L/R preouts to the home theater bypass input on the C12000, and obviously the MCD12000 also gets connected to the C12000 as well and that’s pretty much it (only the C12000 is connected ... | |
| It’s true what they say/and a question As a drummer I agree with @roxy54 that the sound of tom toms can vary widely depending on many things. Hell, using the right heads I can make my maple kit sound like it has birch shells, so who the hell knows what’s “right?” That said, one song ... | |
| LAIV Harmony with the issues LAiV is having it cannot be a very good DAC. @tkrtrb125 That’s not a fair conclusion at all. This is a new product, and it’s not at all unheard of that any new product can have an unforeseen issue. The key is how the company ha... | |
| Use of Denafrips Iris 12th DDC with computer Your most effective upgrade by far would be a good separate streamer, but it’s hard to think a DDC wouldn’t provide at least some improvement over that mess of a signal coming out of your computer. I put an Iris between my streamer and DAC and th... | |
| Amp for Persona B Speakers I’d highly recommend this upgraded SMcAudio amp as it will very likely do everything you’re looking for in spades. You’ll save a bundle, and if you like what you hear you can send it back to them to get their latest mods for even better sound and... | |
| Six DAC Comparison Great info. As a former reviewer I’d make two observations FWIW: We as humans are inherently awful at judging a piece of equipment on its own, which is why I regard reviews that don’t include comparisons to anything else (looking at you TAS) as... | |
| Six DAC Comparison Thanks for all the great info and follow up, but this is such a tease! 😜 Really looking forward to your thoughts, and Mojo is now back on the short list for my next DAC upgrade — very interesting about the choke power supply. My main concern wit... | |
| New speakers for 15*12 room powered by Lamm 1.2s? Dump the Thiels....the crossover is sucking all the music out... Well that’s just a complete load of crap. | |
| Power amplifier longevity… thoughts? Here’s another SMcAudio amp with more than enough power and basically a new amp as of 2015 with the Ultra upgrades. Best of luck. https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/650135552-mccormack-smc-audio-ultra-15-dna-1-power-amplifier-upgraded/ |
