Are REL the most Musical Subs? Several thoughts as I’ve recently done a bit of research on subs: REL makes good subs but do not have a monopoly on naturally integrating into a system. Any good, properly-positioned and dialed-in sub will integrate seamlessly. You should seri... | |
The Rapid Rise (& Fall) of the CD I still have never heard anyone say, Wow! Look at your download collection! @vinylvision1 But you’re kinda missing a lot of the point of streaming. I don’t care how large your current music library is, it’s just a fraction of what’s availabl... | |
Receiver $10k USD? For a receiver?? Is this a joke??? | |
LAIV Harmony I’m not saying the Harmony was bad. I think for the price it’s great. It was much better than my R26. But it falls short compared to what the May offers in my system. @campo007 Congrats on finding an even more satisfying DAC. What aspects of... | |
Subwoofers If foam surrounds on Rhythmik subs are an issue for you, why were they even on your list in the first place? Also, I’ve never, ever heard of anyone having an issue with a Rhythmik sub. Crossing Rhythmiks off your list simply due to foam surround... | |
Six DAC Comparison Excellent! Thanks for listing the contenders — great selection and really looking forward to your thoughts/impressions. | |
Six DAC Comparison My point is that if the Benchmark is providing "state-of-the-art measured performance," then one could reasonably presume that the other five DACs, which sound different from the Benchmark, do not share similar ’state-of-the-art" measurements and... | |
Help - is Krell dead? @rubix Someone on another thread just said there should be a communication from Krell shortly, possibly on the Facebook page others have mentioned. | |
Upgrade from Revel 228be? Given what you’re looking for I would definitely add the Joseph Audio Perspective 2 to your list. Best of luck. | |
Speakers that disappear While I agree that all speakers “can” disappear to some extent or another and that things like the room and recording quality also matter significantly, some speakers still just inherently and more easily and completely disappear as a sound source... | |
Subwoofers Nice speakers. This one is a no brainer to me as you can get two excellent Rhythmik F12G subs for $1000 less than one of the RELs, and the F12Gs even go significantly deeper as well. I’m sure the RELs are good, but the price differential here is p... | |
$8k for speakers - new or used Here’s a pair of Joseph Audio Perspective 2s near your price point (they do have some minor damage that is what brings them to your price level). I got to hear the smaller Pulsars and your 804 D3s in the same system and hands down thought the Pul... | |
Speakers that disappear One of the speakers that will absolutely pull off a disappearing act most effectively and better than most all others are Joseph Audio speakers. Just pick the ones that fit your space and budget. Best of luck. | |
The Rapid Rise (& Fall) of the CD ... and CD’s are gaining in popularity again, there are a good many YouTube vids about this; sales are increasing and there are more CD players and CD transports hitting the market along with it.... Oh, there are YouTube videos so it must be tr... | |
Little class D amp vs tube amp Not sure what the point is here — different systems in different rooms sound different even on a YouTube video? |
