| Why I'm not adding a sub to my 2-way monitors for music Quick update on my addition of an SVS Micro 3000 to my M30.1 system. I speak for myself in my living room with my equipment. LR is maybe 17 x 13 and I have the Harbeth's about 24" from the back wall, with the sub in between the speakers, closer... | |
| Why I'm not adding a sub to my 2-way monitors for music "I guess you’re not listening to Alan Walker at concert level..;)" Nah, I'm more of a Skrillex kinda guy. | |
| Why I'm not adding a sub to my 2-way monitors for music I just added an SVS Micro 3000 to my Harbeth M30.1 based system. Its certainly filling in space I knew I was missing. My listening area is the right side of a 27 x 13 room and is pretty well damped. I can see how setting up a sub could be a P... | |
| Harbeth again…or other speakers for acoustic music? A couple of guys asked how its going with my SVS Micro 3000sub and Harbeth m30.1 setup/integration. First just a little context so you know my particular situation. I retired about 6 years ago and have moved 4 times since then. Always a 1 or 2 br... | |
| Harbeth again…or other speakers for acoustic music? I’ve owned a pair of m 30.1’s for about 4 years. I really enjoy them and I too like jazz, vocals, acoustic guitar, piano etc. Acoustic music with space and realism mixed with artists like Monk, Bill Evans, Billie, Etta, Esperanza, Glenn Gould, Yo ... | |
| Sound System on $10K Budget Lots of interesting responses. Forget the advice from the member that said go for high wattage. Things have changed over the past 30 years. Concentrate on component synergy; whatever pieces you get have to work well together and that can mean ... | |
| How good is Pass INT25? Great great integrated. I have one of them and have been an audio hobbyist for a long time and have owned too many pre/amp’s and integrateds. There is something unique and special about the "voicing" of the INT-25. I play it through a pair of Harb... | |
| What do audiophiles do in their cars? Just bought a '22 Honda Civic EX. I thought about the Touring model (major differences were nicer stereo, leather and wireless android auto) but didn't want to spend another $4.5k. I can listen to Qobuz on my phone connected to android auto (a b... | |
| You own a store, you sell 2 brands, which? Harbeth and Pass. Easy. | |
| What comes after Harbeth 30.1s? Thanks OP for starting this thread. I pair a Pass INT-25 with the M30.1's and it's a great match. I've had the Harbeth's for a few years and recently have been thinking about "upgrading". Or just add a small subwoofer and be done with it. My l... | |
| What Integrated Amp do You use Pass INT 25 with Harbeth m30.1's. Excellent match. | |
| Rogers High Fidelity Integrated amplifiers I find it a little odd that no one mentioned that Roger from Rogers High Fidelity chimed in months ago with an answer from his perspective. I don't have a Rogers (not that i wouldn't want one!!!) but I thought that was kinda classy and wanted to ... | |
| Why Don't More People Into Music Reproduction At Home Play Around With Musical Instruments I started playing fingerstyle acoustic guitar when I retired about 6 years ago. I agree with some of the other posters - very challenging to play an instrument with any proficiency. I'm certainly not proficient, but I have fun and it's something... | |
| Audio Connection + John Rutan (a kudo) +1 for John Rutan at audioconnection. John sold me my first high end audio gateway drugs (NAD and Vandersteen 1b).....34 years ago. :-). I still remember driving to his shop during a snowstorm to pick up my new stereo. | |
| Has anyone used the new Innuos 2.0 Sense music app? Compared it to Roon? I’m an old(er) jaded audiophile and ex IT person. I know a good bit about computers from a practical sense as a power user. Honestly I did not hear much of an improvement moving from a stripped down Win 10 laptop to the Zen mk3 that I bought in Ap... |
