| Wanting to upgrade my streaming sound quality. Gobsmacked is good, especially if you can assess an in depth opinion while being so! Thanks for confirming sound stage, imaging, and playback of MQA on how playback compares to best vinyls. These among other features 150 has my sights on the 150 f... | |
| Wanting to upgrade my streaming sound quality. …as am I waiting to hear your impressions. Have the very same dilemma. Read countless reviews, as well as TAS’s recommendation just need to hear real world feedback to make the jump up to the HIfi Rose 150. | |
| Best in wall speakers I’ve used B&W and Klipsch with succes. Those Triad Gold’s look promising, also Martin Logan’s Edge. Move up the lines based on your penchant for audiophilia!In my experience most things that constitute stand-alones are relevant with in-walls. ... | |
| In ear headphones $150 or less Portlandlay would be intrigued to know your findings, as you stated the search through reviews and recommendation for that right balance can be quite an endeavor. | |
| In ear headphones $150 or less For in ear try the Klipsch XR8i’s. They’re a hybrid with subwoofer and have outstanding noise isolation (think while vacuuming, using lawn equipment, and of course cycling). Bass response is great, and midrange is just short of neutral (I find my ... | |
| In-Wall Surrounds : Installation Height Yes, in both instances I managed to end up with the middle of a dipolar array of tweeters falling at 24" from the ceiling, and 24" from ear level. However with your Paradigm CI Elite E80-IW surrounds being monopole this should also translate. | |
| In-Wall Surrounds : Installation Height I have two systems with in-wall surrounds. Each has different ceiling heights as well as one room having an open wall to the adjacent room. In both installs the surrounds are placed at 3/4 of the way up from the floor, with the tweeter at about 2 ... | |
| How do I power my 800D(3)s So to stay on topic... Curious to know what or if there was an amp. chosen for the O.P.'s 800D3's and the results? | |
| Heard the B&W N804d3s ... Would like to hear your results after adding the subwoofer. | |
| Heard the B&W N804d3s ... I too have auditioned the 800D3 at a presentation put on by B&W at my local Paragon botique, here in Michigan. Power and pre-sources were driven by the latest D’Agostino Progression monoblocks, and Momentum pre-amp., wired with uber-high-end T... | |
| In wall vs regular speakers? In my case the in-walls that I’m using fire in both directions in dipolar configuration, and have a very wide dispersion of sound... Even in the case where one room has an open side to an ajacent room. For the enclosed room side placement is just ... | |
| In wall vs regular speakers? I agree with some of the other posters but allow me to share my experience: I have a tower 2.1/5.1system consisting of B&W 802's, HTM-1 center channel and CWM-DS8 in-wall surrounds, and ASW-800 subwoofer. Another 5.1 system consisting of Kli... | |
| Can I use a multichannel amp to bi-amp my speakers Thanks. Being that I'm yet to take the plunge into bi-amping this brings a bit of clarity to the approach. | |
| Can I use a multichannel amp to bi-amp my speakers So could anyone speak on this as an option? http://audiophilereview.com/reference-speakers/a-tale-of-two-speakers---how-bi-amping-unlocked-my-bo... I’m using a Denon AVP-A1HDCI, Parasound A51, and B&W 802’s. What possible differences/improveme... | |
| Vincent SV-236 remote control I second the option to get the replacement from Vincent if only for practical purposes. However, and not contradicting... I never use mine, as my commands are programmed into my Philips Pronto 7500 and Marantz 9500 universals. This for me is more ... |
