| Room Treatment? How important is it to treat the wall behind/between the speakers? I have a 13x23 ft purpose built room with rockwool behind all walls and acoustimat "rubber" on all walls and ceiling too (under the sheetrock of course). The room is acoustically tight and relatively sound proof so even listening loud it doesn't t... | |
| Surprised at Low Household EMI Readings I second the comment of the other member asking about the correlation between EMI and dirty/noisy AC. I thought EMI was generally caused by source cables being too close to power cables which interfere with the source cables via electro magnetic "... | |
| Why hasnt a turntable manufacturer produced a table with automatic tonearm return/shutoff? Yup, I use The Little Fwend lifter and even that's a pain half the time- because I have to remember to reset it after every play. And I find records an annoyance filled experience regardless- despite having a great table and cartridge I find vinyl... | |
| Less expensive alternatives to Klipsch Heritage Cornwall IV? I'm more amazed that posters on this thread have 23k and 13k posts- they must post multiple times a day, every day for a decade to achieve that. | |
| Pass Labs xa-25 or Coda Continum #8 I was intrigued by Coda too at one point but found it really really odd that the only reviews are in stereotimes by the same author who gushes over them in every article. Not one review to be found in Sterophile, Absolute Sound or any of the other... | |
| Would u give up usher mini dancer 2 for b&w 802's i belong to several groups/ forums, Audio Research, Mcintosh, Wilson and a couple more. The Audiogon forums are the snarkiest, know it all, confrontational, petty, hostile, political and unwelcoming of any I’ve interacted with. Adios, as BB King ... | |
| Best power cord for Audioquest Niagara 1200 I'd get a power conditioner for your power conditioner. | |
| Volti does it again! You may want to wait to listen in a non show, non hotel room environment if possible. I always find it tough to make an informed decision when at Axpona or similar- so busy, loud, distracting etc. Plus, theres always that overwhelming urge I have ... | |
| Looking for 200 watt Amp to drive Dynaudio Heritage speakers I have a pair of Bel Canto REF600 mono amps - 300 rms each that sound great, very smooth, musical and punchy - and can drive any speaker I’ve thrown at them. I use them for a few months a year too and move them around the house. They’re about 15 p... | |
| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! Thanks and in general I can mostly agree with the explanations of not wanting to advertise or pay etc. BUT the reality is that there are plenty of reviews on products that don't advertise and even more that see value in going to a couple fo the bi... | |
| The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! So I’m somewhat intrigued by the various Coda amps - but- how come there aren’t any reviews in Stereophile, Absolute Sound, Ultra , Audiophiliac etc. ? Can’t find any in any "popular" reviewing source? Also, they charge 3k for adding meters to the... | |
| Luxman leaves me wanting Based on you liking what you hear when you switch on "Loudness" you're not missing the mid range, you're missing probably a fuller bottom end and possibly some crisp highs. The Loudness button accentuates bass and highs (and as a result it actuall... | |
| What is going on here? Streamer or DAC? Why not share what brand and model you have? Perhaps others have had similar exp with it and diagnosed the issue? | |
| Rogue Audio hard to resell, has it fallen out of favor ? What took you so long ? Third or 4th comment today alone- troll. | |
| Rogue Audio hard to resell, has it fallen out of favor ? Agreed and thanks for your support lol! |
