| Dynaudio sub with C1's Hi Tom I have been moving my speakers rack and sub trying to get the best sound. When I tried all 4 spikes it seemed to lose some 'meat' away from the bass. For the most part I didn't care for the sound. It was suggested by a Rel dealer to try jus... | |
| Integrated: Red Wine 30.2 vs Bryston B100 SST I have to agree with Jaybo - speakers first. I started with the Bryston B100 replacing my Denon. Very nice integrated. Next I got a Merdian G08 cdp. Then I fell in love with the Dynaudio C1's replacing my Mission/Cyrus 782's. The B100 matches fair... | |
| Strange amplifier problem 3. After some time I see a spark near the IEC inlet and check the fuse - it is blown.Did you see a spark or was it a clear glass fuse that blew? As far as blowing the line fuse I would think something is wrong with the amp. Something is causing an... | |
| Dynaudio sub with C1's Thanks for all the replies. Bob I never really thought about an external crossover. It is something to consider. | |
| Dynaudio sub with C1's Drubin - Yes I do run the Rel off the amp (high level). The Dyn subs wont do high level. I did compare the Rel with JL audio but with sonus faber's creamora's and auditor's and thought the Rel was more musical. I like a musical system.Shadone - I ... | |
| Dynaudio sub with C1's Dhaskins - I am using a Bryston B100 which does lack some power for the C2's but not that bad. As far as the sim I got my C1's from Tyler and he has a sim stack. BTW Tyler is the best dealer I have ever done any business with. Yeah great set up bu... | |
| Dynaudio sub with C1's Thanks for the response Shadone. My concern is that as great as the Rel is it doesn't seem to match up with the Dyn line. I was thinking if I change my intergrated with one that has a sub out would it be worth it to get the sub 500 to give me the ... | |
| Ethernet cable/router upgrade? I'll be the first to admit that I never thought something like a power cable (or dedicated wiring) could make such a difference but to me it does. Logically an ethernet cable shouldn't make any difference but I've never tried an expensive one. Kno... | |
| Ethernet cable/router upgrade? Ethernet cables wont make a difference especially in speed. The reason is you are limited by the speed of your internet connection (uselly capped at 6mb). The streaming music/video is encoded in the tcp/ip protocol which is digital not analog. | |
| Integration of a REL B3 subwoofer Mine sounds better in a corner - otherwise I'm too close to it. Try using just the front spikes. It takes out a bit of the bloom. | |
| Single Point Ground Ok from an electrical point of view that's different. By national code all building wiring must have a single point ground. First you need to understand that neutral is a current carrying conductor and earth ground (3rd prong on the pc or outlet) ... | |
| Single Point Ground A single point ground in a audio system could mean only 1 component is grounded. Typically the device that draws the max current. I have heard some 'tube' guys do that to eliminate ground loops/humming. | |
| Dynaudio Confidence C1 vs Totem Mani-2 I never heard the totem but I do have the C1's. I can't say enough good things about the C1's. Very transparent open and detailed. Great imaging too. Best midrange and overall balance I've heard for a monitor. They do sound better with a sub. I ha... | |
| Where's the bass? I agree with Chayro. I might add Klipsch to the mix. | |
| Widening Soundstage If your speakers are toed-in try them more straight on. Like Shadorne also suggested either move the speakers back a bit or your chair to be farther away. |
