| Whats more important? Speaker or the Amp Speakers can have more profound effect on the sound than an amp. Maybe a really tubey tube amp could be worse under certain situations but most for most people it's speakers.SS amps are very similar usually if they are of high quality. Much more s... | |
| Walls, ceilings, floors -- neighbors and sound Some condos may have double thick walls between them. Some that are smaller may be designed to have a garage between them on the lower floor which is almost like having a house.Bass frequencies will travel through alot. If you like to listen at an... | |
| Behringer DEQ2496: Ease of Use Eldartford: Thank You! I didn't ever think about using the feedback destroyer. I forgot all about it. Now I'll have to use that also. | |
| Tube amp with SS like bass Try an AVA Fetvalve 550 hybrid amp or a Blue Circle amp if you can get by with less power. Both have a very similar sonic signature that no pure ss amp can match with excellent bass.That's as close as you're going to get. I've not heard most amps ... | |
| Behringer DEQ2496: Ease of Use Eldartford: With my room being fully treated the worst case is plus or minus 10db. With just small adjustments across the frequency spectrum I've found I can make a huge difference in the presentation of my system. At 31.5 I have it cut 4db which ... | |
| A mistake spending too much on amplification? Spend money on room treatments if you want to hear a huge improvement! | |
| I know this is heresy, but... Well having plenty of fore thought can only help. Btw bass traps are essential and will help the sound of the bass alot. Not only that but the clarity of the midrange often improves dramatically too.Once you do get the room treatments there's no g... | |
| I know this is heresy, but... You may want to contact Rives or Realtraps. If you buy something from them they'll be very open to advice for you. Like Undertow says above, your system is unusual. I'd try to get the front baffle of my speakers out at least a few inches from the ... | |
| Behringer DEQ2496: Ease of Use The Behringer is only 300 dollars. For that money I feel it's an outstanding value. It can't fix alot of things and I only make adjustments of 3db max. When pushing up dips I only go up 2db. This isn't the cure all but for the money is a bargain. ... | |
| I know this is heresy, but... Phd: Components and cabling are not nearly as effective as room treatment or a digital equalizer. With the large variation in amplitude in the frequency response of all of our rooms more drastic measures are really necessary to allow our systems t... | |
| Moscode 401HR's Sonic Character The speaker/amp interface I find critical. It's really best to audition an amp in your own system. It appears there's not alot of used ones so you are stuck with a new one.If you like the idea of a hybrid amp you may want to try one of the AVA Fet... | |
| Placement of amps ? You can place your amp wherever you want, just be sure it's on a hard surface so it has good ventilation. | |
| aes ebu connections Or your dac will need a volume control. | |
| aes ebu connections If you go straight to the amp with the cd player you better have adjustable gain or you may blow your speakers and or amp. | |
| Behringer DEQ mods? I'd just use an outboard dac and use the Behringer only in the digital domain. That's exactly what I do. I can't imagine what mods would do to make the digital domain any better and an outboard dac leaves alot of choices. Therefore use the money f... |
