| Mapleshade...where's the love? Plenty of love here!I have and enjoy many of their recordings as well as many of their other products. Some of the very best recordings I have heard, proving that CD's can sound truly great! I do wish they would get some more talent though. | |
| Open Baffle vs Box It’s cool you are talking to Clayton and getting advice from the designer. I am working with Mark Shifter he is one of the other designers of Emerald Physics speakers amps and DSP units. (currently working on their next gen amps) I actually bought... | |
| Open Baffle vs Box Glad to help! I have a feeling you will be pleasantly surprised.Cheers. | |
| Open Baffle vs Box I have just recently moved from a full Vandersteen setup consisting of 3a signatures and a stereo pair of 2Wq subs with the $1000. M5 HPB high pass filters to Emerald Physics EP 2.7’s. (As mentioned Emerald Physics was Clayton Shaw’s company befor... | |
| Separate DAC or continue using the Oppo UDP-205 Whats the need for a streamer? Yes exactly, I use Tidal and Youtube music app and find its the best way to discover and try new music. Some say streaming will never be as good as physical media, I say it is close enough (with a good streamer.) I e... | |

Oppos are known for their very good DAC’s and are audiophile grade components where as the Sonos Connect is a mass market consumer grade product and are not known for High fidelity sou... | |
| Speaker Break In...? Or listener “Break In”? I can't make that first link work for some reason. You can copy and paste it. Interesting read: gr-research.com/burnin.htm | |

| Subs on stands The best thing you can do is to experiment. There are many schools of thought on sub placement. (as you can see by reading here) It just takes a bit of effort to try different set ups. You don’t have to spend money to try it. Find something to pla... | |

| Recent purchase Emerald Physics 4.7's Actually the EP-4.7 EP-2.7 and the current 4.8 and 2.8 and the KC2 models and maybe a couple others don't need the DSP. They can be run either way depending on what you want and are comfortable with. (not sure if the KC2's can even use the DSP) M... | |
| Recent purchase Emerald Physics 4.7's Hi smodtactical. I have not heard them myself but have been reading everything I can find. The 2.8 and 4.8 are the current top of the line only difference is the 2nd woofer on the 2.8. The 4.8 is for smaller to medium sized rooms and the 2.8 is fo... | |
| Emerald physics Amps 100.2 SE Question I second gleenedick. Not really such thing as too much power. It's the distortion that results from over driving a low power amp that will damage speaker drivers. I have two of these amps and use them sometimes with a pair of old vintage JBL's tha... | |
| Recent purchase Emerald Physics 4.7's Hello Paulshaywv. I just bought a pair of these second hand, they have not arrived yet. I was wondering if you still have them and if so how are you liking them? Any thoughts or tips you can offer would be greatly appreciated. I also have a pair o... | |
| Demo'd a few sets of speakers over the past 2 weeks... Oh and as far as I know there are no newer versions of the 3a sigs. The signature version was an update to the 3a. |
