| Electrostatic speakers and low volume resolution "BTW, and somewhat off subject, some time ago I started a thread regarding phase testing using pink noise and how I noticed some migration of the sound as I progressed through increasing frequencies. I performed the same test after I did the autom... | |
| Electrostatic speakers and low volume resolution "04-03-15: BroadstoneThanks, Zd. I'm not advocating use of an EQ as a solution for all problems and I do understand, or at least am aware of, phase issues associated with additional artifacts being introduced into the sound stream. However, if I h... | |
| Best computer for usb hi fi source "04-08-15: ElevickI'm not a Mac fan plus they are pricey. Windows 8.1 is awful. I wiped a new Acer laptop, put in a solid state drive and installed Windows 7. All is perfect. Using both JRiver and Foobar but when streaming, media player is easy. D... | |
| Buzz from preamp I think it would be a good idea to list your entire system. There's a chance the problem is not with the preamp. | |
| Best computer for usb hi fi source I like a PC because you have more options. But I buy the separate components, and assemble them myself. Doing it that way allows me to select all parts that I know are high quality. If I had to go with something pre built, I would just get a Mac M... | |
| amp for vandersteen Quatro maybe vandersteen 5a Ayre is a very popular choice. That's what I use. A V-5 and a K-5 would be hard to beat. But you should still listen to them first. Just because I like them doesn't you'll feel the same way. Aesthetix is a good choice if you want to use tubes. | |
| Best A'gon System I like Audiogon's updated feedback system. It used to be where anyone could leave feedback for whatever reason they wanted to. Now they're system is like ebay's. It gets tied to a purchase. | |
| Any comments on Synergistic Research Atmosphere Is your Shunyata Aries solid core or stranded? Also, is it copper or silver? | |
| W4S Mamp or Bel Canton REF500 m ? I think the W4S would be a much better match for your speakers, and the kind of music you listen to. | |
| Clayton Audio Class A amps. Need amp advice Retail $14,000Retail $13,500For an amp at those prices, there would be no hypothetical anything. The only decision I would have to make, is car or plane. | |
| Will the SOtM USB card work with Windows Server? It should work. Doesn't the person who's building your PC know? If it was my PC that they were building, I would expect them to already know this type of thing. | |
| Power Supply for a music PC If you are only using the PC for music, then you don't need things like powerful video cards that use a lot of power. I use a Corsair RM750, and that's probably way more than what I really need. A 550 or 650 should be more than enough. | |
| Clayton Audio Class A amps. Need amp advice "Any feedback is welcomed!!!! Thx"Are you sure about that? Or is it just the feedback that you want to hear?"Flying out of control?? How do you come up with that. Who says that? I have it boiled down to 2 amps and am asking for other members opini... | |
| Looking for a remote for a MHZS CD 33e You can just buy a universal remote. If you don't know what brand of transport is in the CD player, try different codes until you get one that works. | |
| Clayton Audio Class A amps. Need amp advice "That's what I thought about the Ayre Integrated but he swears its the best sounding amp under $20k bar none. He is so dead set serious on it."People say a lot of things. If that were the case, then why does Ayre make amps that cost more than the ... |
