| Nordost Heimdall warm??? thanks ssglx, you mentioned that the Heimdall ics added warmth and fullness. Would you say they are adding something to the signal? I am trying to achieve as neutral a sound as possible.davt, did you find the Heimdall sc to be full bodied in a nat... | |
| Isolation devices and CDPs isanchez, can you please more a little more specific about this devices you have used? For example, did you use the Finite Elemente Cerabase or Cerapuc? Which Equarack footer are you using? Equabearing? | |
| Stereophile or Absolute Sound I like each one for different reasons. I like the measurements and technical analysis of reviewed components of Stereophile. I like the everyman style of TAS. Sometimes I feel the reviewers in Stereophile are trying too hard to be audiophiles when... | |
| Finite Elemente Cerabase vs Symposium Rollerblocks jfrech, what a coincidence. I lived in the Dallas area as well, Coppell to be exact.eds60, I would very much be interested in seeing your system. | |
| Finite Elemente Cerabase vs Symposium Rollerblocks jfrech: Thank you very much for your reply. First of all, nice system! The all black components look awesome!Right now, I am on the fence between the Symposium Isis rack and rollerblocks or the Finite Elemente Signature rack and Cerabase. I like t... | |
| What made you select "audio" as your hobby I think music selected me. I come from a pretty musical family so I have always loved listening to music. I then started to really collecting music when I was 15. I know have a 5000 cd collection. I was then driven to put together a system that co... | |
| Isolation devices and CDPs Bob, may i ask which roller ball type footer you tried and which one you prefer? | |
| What beats the Evolution Acoustics MM3 ?? Bill_powel, the problem is that not everyone wants the recreation of live music nor does everyone agree on what live music sounds like. Once the sound waves hit our ears and is interpreted by our brain, the judgment of what is pleasing to us becom... | |
| What beats the Evolution Acoustics MM3 ?? I guess the answer to this question depends on how you define "beats". In my opinion, whatever speaker you prefer over the MM3 beats it. Like everything else in this hobby, speaker preference is purely subjective. We all know that measurements or ... | |
| Isolation devices and CDPs Sorry, I meant to say isolation OR damping OR both? | |
| Isolation devices and CDPs I wonder what is more important for the cdp, isolation of damping or both? I noticed that most devices are mainly focused on one or the other. | |
| From Pass X250,5 to 350,5 : what to expect? spatine, assuming the sensitivity you provided is at 8ohm, here is what I calculated based on your numbers (these are only best estimates):at an average volume of 70 db assuming a peak of +15db, you will need 0.03W at 4ohm and 1.0W at 85dbat 81 db... | |
| From Pass X250,5 to 350,5 : what to expect? spatine, what is sensitivity of your speakers and its nominal and min impedance? If I have this info I can calculate for you the max power you will need. Also, how far away do you listen?The XA does not double down power. | |
| Music Server vs. PC vs. Transport vs. ? Chris, I run wireless to my Sonos and no issues. FYI Sonos runs on a proprietary wireless network that seems to be more robust than my wifi (Linksys). I have not had any issues with drop outs or any other strange sounds. One thing to keep in mind ... | |
| From Pass X250,5 to 350,5 : what to expect? spatine, what efficiency and nominal (and minimum) impedance of your speakers? You will be very surprised at how little power you actually need if you listen at normal listening levels. I actually calculated the power my speakers needed at varying... |
