| Pass Labs “House Sound” vs. McIntosh “House Sound” @almarg I do use the DEQX volume control for the sub. I put in a set of RCA's, but just get AC hum. I unplugged the unit, let it sit for about 10 minutes, then plugged back in and turned on...same result. Read through the manual, I didn't see a... | |
| Pass Labs “House Sound” vs. McIntosh “House Sound” @david_ten Thanks for the input.@jafant I’ll post up after I’ve had for about a month.@almarg Hey Al, I’m going RCA/sub preout from the DEQX into the REL. | |
| Pass Labs “House Sound” vs. McIntosh “House Sound” @jbrrp1 thanks for the input. You are 100% correct, their equipment does deliver and the industry needs more folks like Paul and his employees running these audio companies. I've attempted to not like their equipment, rather, initially I attempt... | |
| Mytek Brooklyn I just purchased an Ayre QB-9. Not that I wish the above misfortune/headache upon anyone, but I appreciate the thread, as it persuaded me to not purchase the Brooklyn. | |
| Pass Labs “House Sound” vs. McIntosh “House Sound” @almarg Thanks Al! That’s a great thread. Correct in my signal chain. I’ll swap out to RCA’s, see if that alters. I do believe I may be approaching the point where an additional sub will have to be deployed, right now I just have 1. I’m using... | |
| Pass Labs “House Sound” vs. McIntosh “House Sound” All, thank you for the comments.@stereo5 That question cuts deep! I do like the C2500, 85% of the time. On most of the music I listen to, it is a pretty full sound, so to speak. I often wondered if I was missing out on some lower end energy and... | |
| Pass Labs “House Sound” vs. McIntosh “House Sound” @lalitk That would probably help!I have a set of the PS Audio BHK300 monoblocks, which are driving a set of Dynaudio Confidence C4 Signatures. I also have a DEQX Premate for Speaker/Room correction. All of my power cables are Shunyata Research a... | |
| A lot of hype about PS Audio, deservedly so ? They do the assembly in Boulder, the product forms are stamped here in the US as well. I did ask one of their techs if anything was manufactured in China, he said nothing is. That may not apply to their older offerings, but the amps/pre/direct s... | |
| Mytek Brooklyn Any updates? I was considering the Brooklyn as my headphone preamp/DAC. Though I’ve read plenty on them, reading this def makes me think twice about a purchase. | |
| Preamp tubes ran their life? All, thank you for the inputs. | |
| Preamp tubes ran their life? @noromance , I’ll check them out. Do you have any input on their musical characteristics? | |
| Preamp tubes ran their life? @kennythekey @djohnson54 thank you for the input. I should have qualified a little more...”Way up”, they probably ran for about 4-6/day for the first year, due to the preamp being inband of the home theater signal. I’ll swap the L/R channels, bu... | |
| Preamp tubes ran their life? I’d also like to get anyone’s input on 12ax7 tube replacements. My budget would be $200-$250 per tube. | |
| DEQX Final Config and impressions... Has anyone used a DEQX unit with the Sanders 10e speaker system? (Replacing it with the supplied dbx unit)I didn't see an answer in the other post, when you posed it. Possibly contact a DEQX dealer to find out and see if you can get an in home de... | |
| DEQX Final Config and impressions... Ahhh, I do believe I recall those reading those sentiments. I will continue to enjoy and thanks for all your help! |
