| High-end amplifier clarification? I prefer to look at measurements, scopes, and articles (I don't understand ALL the technical stuff but, thankfully, there are a lot of real smart people that do) about amps instead of dealing with reproduction of sound by some lame "musician"...a ... | |
| Do you leave your components on 24/7? I think hell would have to have electricity...what...it runs on some imaginary power? Get real.... | |
| Do you leave your components on 24/7? I turn everything off except a Rel sub that's designed to be left on (no on/off switch anyway, and it's plugged into a different outlet...I unplug it when gone for days) as not much is happening until it gets a signal. Otherwise, having had gear w... | |
| High-end amplifier clarification? I listened to some Boulder amps today...I think if an amp weighs more than your car, it's high end. | |
| How far apart do you position your speakers ? So...I AM a bad person! Damn...I forgot to mention that the speakers sound great without pulling 'em out into the room. I just do it to remind myself of how wise and attentive I am, and that I can be as geeky as the next freak. | |
| How far apart do you position your speakers ? Since my speakers are light-ish skinny towers (Silverline Preludes), I move 'em out away from the back walls into a closer sweet spot when I feel like it, leaving my beloved old REL sub alone. I have the spot marked for returning them to "sweet sp... | |
| How far apart do you position your speakers ? Sebrof...I agree, but feel you may have missed my point. As long as the imageing and response of speakers meet my personal (and somewhat critical) tastes, I'm fine with some room sound. Many "audiogoners" might tweek the bejesus out of a room to o... | |
| DAC's, i'm lost Logitech Squeezebox Touch for $300 or less. Nice DACs and amazing performance for the money. I love mine, and when I plugged it into a friend's system (he has the same speakers as I do) bypassing his new Wyred4Sound DAC, we were both amazed at the... | |
| How far apart do you position your speakers ? If you move speakers away from walls, dampen surfaces, use tube traps or something in corners for standing wave issues, and have silent heating and/or cooling and no furniture, you can't live in my house. Period. I think the sound of a room can ad... | |
| High-end amplifier clarification? High End is any gear 99 out of 100 people haven't heard of. | |
| Preamp with tone control. The Adcom 715 is great for the money...it just is. | |
| Preamp with tone control. Cool...and if you don't like it you can blame me. Weird thing...when listening to an ipod pluged into the "aux" input, I noticed sound bleeding into other inputs (like the CD input if I wasn't yet playing a CD and the pod was on). I assumed there ... | |
| Speakers with Most good reviews in last ten years Vandersteen 2s may be one of the most universally well regarded full range-ish speakers of all time. | |
| Adding Sub to current system Hey...I thought I had the last word! The "Ludes" (nice huh?) are the best speakers EVER and if you don't agree I'm gonna thrown my drink at the wall. There...I feel better already. I tend to get rid of things I don't like and bagged a very expensi... | |
| Adding Sub to current system By "eq" I mean an electronic equalizer, not moving things around (do you mean obtaining room equalization by moving the sub?), and my observation is based on the actual use of a REL sub...I assume you haven't heard Silverline Preludes or any other... |
