| Music first or sound first? +1 @layton64 | |
| Music first or sound first? It's always the "sound" to start, but it doesn't last long. I started out listening to the sound until I got my system where I wanted it. These are some of the honest feedback. I am in the same boat. I think that many audiophiles feel that... | |
| Oppo 205 with Parasound JC-1s Alright then. Lets close this post, since you questioned yourself and then provided yourself the answer 😁 | |
| Music first or sound first? I am both equally. Being very honest here - I have found that as the music system gets better, I have started liking genres of music that was "meh" to me before. It may be the age - who knows. But I like the eargasms my system is able to provide. ... | |
| If you have a nice system why do you really need room treatments? Thanks for the details @emergingsoul . I was under the impression that you did not have any panels and had set up your system in such a way that it sounds amazing, as-is. I was trying to understand the context of your post. I think however good t... | |
| Listening position/speaker position Agreed with what others have said. I have read about a setup that divides room into 3 X 1/3. Place the speakers at the 1/3 mark (roughly 8 feet) from front wall and you sit on the 1/3 mark from the back wall. For the 15 feet width room, you might ... | |
| If you have a nice system why do you really need room treatments? @emergingsoul , Thank You for the complements. But that did not help, because seeing makes a difference and helps understand better, at least for me. And you did not mention anything about your room size, treatments, etc. I do have Carpenters and... | |
| If you have a nice system why do you really need room treatments? @emergingsoul , Why don't you post your system pics and show how it is done? Maybe we all can learn something from you! | |
| OPpo 205.... Awesome !! One thing about the Oppo is future LASER replacement. Question - does a laser go bad if unused? I have NOT used the laser in my Oppo UDP-205 since I have been using it as a DAC since July-2020. Since 2020 July, I use the laser only once a year ... | |
| How Is This Possible? Must be Counterfeits @mahgister , No one bashed any Chinese products. The discussion was how they effectively copy products and sell them blatantly as the same brand. If they were selling as a duplicate brand name, example Sharp Vs Shrap, then that would be different... | |
| 15k for streamer and dac....how much on each? @jaxwired , how much of a difference do you find between the SMSL and the Wyred4Sound DACs that you own? Which one do you prefer? | |
| How Is This Possible? Must be Counterfeits The government of China does not recognize international patent laws and some people take advantage of this. They way "Copyrights" work is China - we have the rights to copy 😄 | |
| Considering a Backert Rhythm 1.4, talk me out of it Go for the new Rhythm 1.4. Get some NOS Mazdas and be mesmerized. Have fun! | |
| Room Acoustics, minimal treatment and measurements Nicely done!! I agree - most people are better off treating their rooms and keeping their existing loudspeakers. Most folks assume that their loudspeakers are not compatible with their room and keep searching for a better one. I found that if we t... | |
| Hurray for Wadax! Yay! And it only costs $45k 😁 I'm surprised other manufacturers haven't offered us this option with their CD players. My Oppo does all those discs. And now there are newer players as Oppo's replacement. So I am not sure what you meant. |
