| Legacy Focus HDs Could be your room and what works best. Having them angled to L and R of your chair does aim the speakers approximately where I was referring to (behind the listening position) but at an angle that works great for your location. | |
| Legacy Focus HDs Steve: If you are able, try to pull them out from the back wall 3-5 feet. Depending upon your room, you may find what I did that this improves the sound stage in all dimensions and deepens/sharpens the bass, etc...In short, these speakers love bre... | |
| Legacy Focus HDs Steve: Thanks for the info on your room setup and for measuring your speaker distances, toe-in, etc...please let us know what you have.Doug: Thanks for the early opinion on the SE speaker. I look forward to your revised Dagogo supplement on the SE... | |
| 20 Amp Dedicated line: 10 gauge vs 12 gauge wire Analysis Plus makes a 10-gauge extremely high-quality in-wall certified conduit, "Power Oval 10" that lists for $30/foot. I have great conduit already in-wall (10-gauge multi-9's, solid core, hand-pulled) as referenced above however I am getting r... | |
| Legacy Focus HDs Steve,....glad to hear that! These speakers continue to make me very happy with all types of music. Hifiman, Steve, et al: How many feet apart, how many feet from back wall, and how much toe-in did you find works well for your rooms? I am consider... | |
| Amp suggestions to pair with Edge G1 preamp If you can stretch a bit more budget, you might wish to consider the Edge G8+ monoblocks which are G8 designs with the added benefit of the laser-bias circuit design from the NL series amplifiers. Another A-gon member has a pair up now for about $... | |
| 7.1 speaker set up recommendation I second Boston_high_end and forgot to include Usher when I mentioned Totem above. Usher is another brand that gives great sound/value for less than many other speaker manufacturers.... | |
| 7.1 speaker set up recommendation Give Totem speakers some serious consideration at this price point. I second the recommendation above that getting better individual speakers and staying with 5.1 at this price point is advisable. At most, consider going to 6.1 (1 surround back sp... | |
| Amp suggestions to pair with Edge G1 preamp I do not know your speakers or your budget point however, I have personal experience with Edge G8 and NL amplification. If you can afford to go (used or new) to NL 10.1 or NL 12.1 amplification, you will find amazing sound waits for you with these... | |
| Audio Racks & Equipment Support I have multiple Adona racks with very good baseline results and have also augmented/tested with Stillpoints, BDR pucks, cones, and other tweaks. The best I've found without spending thousands on things like Critical Mass platforms are from Composi... | |
| 20 Amp Dedicated line: 10 gauge vs 12 gauge wire There is no issue running 10-gauge wire for a 20-amp circuit. I have a circuit run with hand-pulled solid-core 10-gauge and high-grade conduit that is 100' from breakout box to listening room with great results. I use Oyaide R1 cryo'ed outlets and... | |
| Which budget digital cable ? Analysis Plus Digital is a great value buy. | |
| Rel Storm III Subwoofer with Custom Neutrik Cable I do not know if the 5-wire is covered in the manual (it is not for the B1 and another REL I owned). It sounds like this might be a cable made for HT config where someone had amps for the L/R and an amp for their center and used the REL to pick up... | |
| Anyone go without power conditioning I used passive power conditioning for quite some time and then went to active (balanced, power-factor corrected power) and enjoyed the result very much. I have recently sold off the latter unit and am plugging straight into a custom-run dedicated ... | |
| how long to break in a power conditioner? Minimally, you may wish to take a look at a Furman Elite 15PF or a used IT-Reference of some form. They both have a dedicated bank of 4 outlets that are setup to deal with high-demand amplifiers. |
