| The best CD Player for the money Emotiva ERC-1.I've owned two Oppo's and the ERC-1 cold smokes both of them.One was an 83 and when I got the Emotiva, I realized the Oppo was over rated. | |
| Metal, aluminum, or wood for a rack ? I just glued and screwed my two 3/4 in Birch plywood shelves together to make 1 1/2 in shelves and rapped on them with my knuckles and it was very impressive.It sounded like you hit a concrete block.No reverberation or resonance to speak of.It's m... | |
| Asymmetrical Room Treatment Ckoffend. I'm sure he's talking about a 4" panel.Also, it sounds like you're putting together a really nice room.I would stress that the 15 ft. space behind you should also be treated in some mannor.Stand at your listening position and clap your h... | |
| Mapleshade boards under speakers +1 on the bamboo cutting boards.There inexpencive at Lowe's and do wonders for speakers on carpet. | |
| Metal, aluminum, or wood for a rack ? Elizabeth, you can say it if you want to.I get a kick reading behind your gender thoughts on male preception.I've decided to build my rack out of wood. With stackable shelving with spikes at the bottom of eack leg that will sit on the shelf below ... | |
| Asymmetrical Room Treatment Kevin.I've often wondered about soundstage depth and width.Since it all happens at the ear, how does the width of a room and depth of a room affect what happens at your ear ?I can hear or perhaps preceive that a kettle drum is thirty feet behind m... | |
| Asymmetrical Room Treatment Kevin. The bass wave doesn't go right through the glass because it's see through.It reflects back into the room because of solidity of the window.Now, if the window was open then it would escape into the outdoors.It's obviouse you have spoken abov... | |
| Asymmetrical Room Treatment Hi Chris.Putting some 4 inch absorbers in fromt of the window will definatly be a good choise.They will act as bass traps and controle the mid and high reflections.I found when you treat the rear corners of a room (behind the listening chair) it s... | |
| Asymmetrical Room Treatment The drapes will only dampen the very high frequencies at best. (20khz+) Get some absorbers behind you and infront of the window.I would also pull the bass trap out of the corner thats behind you. You may not realize it because you don't have your ... | |
| Metal, aluminum, or wood for a rack ? Elizabeth. You're freaking me out man. | |
| Metal, aluminum, or wood for a rack ? Thanks so much Kenny.I guess my question wasn't clear.I really wanted to know if a metal that is magnetic would cause sonic problems over a non magnetic alloy when buying or building a rack.I looked at your rack and it would be perfect. I just nee... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore B rodgers The SET amps have a lot more trancient attack than the high powered digital amp. And the mids are smooooth. With plenty of detail. But the fact remains that these 98db speakers are born with an SET in mind. I think it might be a step in ... | |
| Zu Omen or Tekton Lore B rodgers.You've given me hope in my speaker choise.It's always good to know that a floor staning speaker can put a smile on the face of a Maggie owners face.It's always a challange to compete with the soundstage of Maggies, and to know you were h... | |
