| Not sure what to think or do... Maybe I missed it but what JBL speaker did you have? You mention a tower and you replaced them with a stand mount so maybe that's playing into your sound difference? My buddy has the JBL 1400 Arrays and yeah that would be a big step backwards goin... | |
| Pure Class-A Amp under $2000 (USED) -50 on the Schitt Aegir I had a pair and they couldn't handle the LSA Statement 10 which is a 83db 10ohm bookshelf nor a pair of Fyne F501 which is 90db 8ohm. Both amps would shut off at any music past 88db volume. Both speakers worked perfectly ... | |
| NEW QUALIO AUDIO IQ SPEAKERS REVIEW : REVELATORY ?! Definitely and interesting speaker | |
| The best plug in filter ever! So, just want to be clear on the application. My set up is Dedicated 20amp > Richard Gray 400Pro > Power amp Traditional 15amp > Furman Elite PF15i > Sources So I would need two of these, one for each wall outlet? | |
| What is your opinion of single driver speakers I built a pair of those using a Fostex driver and they were pretty darn good. That Pearl Acoustic speaker is based off the Mark Audio Pencil speaker which has been around a while. I wouldn't use them in a big room nor is it "loud and proud" type... | |
| Streamer matching to system @matt_mccloat Yes I do and I love the sound of it, the app is better than the BlueOS and miles better than the Lumin in every aspect. See my virtual system | |
| Streamer matching to system Here's my suggestion | |
| Paradigm XR 13 sub I'm sure it could replace the pair you have but given what you already have and not knowing anything more, I'd keep what you have. Those SW1000s are no slouch and a pair can sound better than a single good one when placed right. | |
| Advice? Less than $4k, solid state preamp, neutral to gentle Here's my choice https://www.anthemav.com/products-current/model=str-pre-amplifier/page=overview | |
| What Gear Has Disappointed You? My most recent underwhelming experience was trying the HiFi Rose 150. Bells and whistles aside (which didn't interest me anyway), it was not $3k better than my Auralic Aries G1 so I sent it back. Also buying the Lumin U1 Mini to replace the BS Va... | |
| Old school shootout: Snell A/III vs. Original B&W 801 | |
| Streamers/DACs I'm currently using the STR Stack and I'm using the Auralic Aries USB into my preamp. So with that I'll recommend the Auralic Aries G2.1 and they prefer WiFi use. I tried and sent back the Lumin and a HiFi Rose 150 to keep my Auralic. | |
| So, I listened to a $1Million Dollar System @ozzy I understand and I agree with you. I've heard a lot of high dollar systems that are poorly positioned, in a crappy room that sound like crap and easily bested by a mid level system placed right and a proper room. It's a bummer you had a ... | |
| speakers/ amps liking one another Those 948s are a lot of speaker for that small of a room so you can do some treatments but I'd also suggest some kind of DSP to tame those down (think MiniDSP). I use Anthems ARC software on my Aurum Cantus speakers in my small dedicated room (11.... | |
| So, I listened to a $1Million Dollar System I've listened to a million dollar system (Focal, constellation, clear audio and Transparent) and thought is was absolutely wonderful, so I guess we all have different tastes when relating to the dollar amount. |
