| Making speakers “disappear”….. Hi guys, so many responses and I’m e trendelt grateful, so many responses on two other categories I can’t respond as I’m flying today - 30 hours with stop-overs but I will get to these in the coming weeks, just jumping on so you guys don’t think I... | |
| Injecting one sub to Benchmark system… Hi Jon…that’s a new one for me - running from headphone out! im still in the very early stages and want to work with what I have right now. I have been reading a lot of good things regarding these Schiit products. Funny, the DAC 3 has a great re... | |
| Making speakers “disappear”….. Cheers iseland…..yes, I bought thick curtains for three walls, a pair per side so I can open to various degrees in the event of the curtains deadening the room too much. Still got work to do on room treatment/experimenting. | |
| Injecting one sub to Benchmark system… Hi M-db, thanks a lot for that! My remote for the sub doesn’t seem to be working so I popped an email off to Velodyne today to see if they can sell me one as I’m flying back to the US tomorrow for about a week. Front panel - mine has no switches... | |
| Does anybody pay a pro to dial their system in? Russ69….I think my speakers aren’t the problem - from all accounts the Totem 1s are great speakers and bigger speakers just won’t cut it in this small room. To counter what you say about no headphone can match speakers - if my system came close to... | |
| Does anybody pay a pro to dial their system in? Thanks GHDprentice. Yes, I’m doing all you recommended. I’m sure in the coming weeks I’ll get closer but I can’t help wondering if a second pair of experienced ears would help in case I’m not being realistic in what I’m hoping for. I’m at a point ... | |
| Does anybody pay a pro to dial their system in? Kota1, I’ve done exactly as you said and have the triangle dialed in. More to play with here, opening those wall curtains etc a bit so as not to deaden the sound too much, moving carpet etc etc. i have to fly tonight or tomorrow to the US so wil... | |
| Does anybody pay a pro to dial their system in? Thanks Newbee and the rest of you. Newbee I’ve been loving my headphones for the last year, at home and out and about and I’m leaning to agree with you - I don’t think this system can beat what I get out of those cans with portable amp. However, ... | |
| Making speakers “disappear”….. Oh, one thing….because my room is only 8feet wide I have the speakers closer to the wall than I would like, or if I brought them in two feet each I’m only left with four feet between the speakers ! Anyway, I’ll keep playing around with the limita... | |
| Making speakers “disappear”….. Thanks guys, I will keep experimenting in the coming weeks. One thing I noticed when I got the speakers to disappear was the sound seemed to come from the amp etc straight in front of me….sounds crazy but I need to move that so there is nothing th... | |
| Benchmark AHB2 amp - what speaker connectors are used…. No imhififan, you were more than helpful - way beyond helpful. Without turning the amp upside down and with the interconnects in the way also I wasn’t expecting to find that insert point and fiddling blindly with my finger didnt expose it. I have... | |
| Injecting one sub to Benchmark system… Thanks myjostyn, I’m just finding that out now as I hooked up the sub about a half hour ago. To add to the confusion I’m still trying to really get my room treatment sorted out and get rid of muddiness without the subwoofer. Something just isn’t r... | |
| Injecting one sub to Benchmark system… Kota 1 - thanks, but I’m trying to work with what I have here in Brazil and buying more gear and sliding through customs is out of the question for me at this point. | |
| Injecting one sub to Benchmark system… Thanks M-DB…. My model is the SPLR series, model is the SPL 10 RCH. Don’t have the calibrated mic but it should be easy enough through experimenting to get it integrated with my speakers. Going to try that today. just got the system hooked up (... |
