Not in love with my system yet. Help!
I've upgraded my system quite a bit over the last couple of months and I received the components separately due to shipping delays. I got my Parasound Integrated first and all hooked up. It made quite an improvement. I received my B&W 606 S2's a week later. Happy but knew the arrival of the subwoofers I bought would really help make them shine. I received the first of 2 REL t7i subs and hooked it up as directed and the improvement in sound was astounding so I was ecstatic about the thought of getting the second which was a day later. That's where I ran into issues. I have a Denon receiver which handles the HT side of things. My mains are run through the integrated of course and the only source directly connected to the integrated is a Bluesound Node. I have been unable to integrate the subs for music only when I try with both. I can run Audysey and it did an amazing job for my HT but that doesn't do a thing for me as far as stereo. I have bought a UMIK1 and downloaded REW but know they aren't going to give me any way to correct anything. All of my interconnects are unbalanced (RCA) so not sure which unit I should get to help me along. I have looked into miniDSP but think it only has balanced in and outs. I'd like to keep cost as low as possible as wife is on warpath. What unit do I need to get? I get pretty lost in the forums sometimes sorting everything out so forgive me please for asking to shorten my time to get to my goal and going over things that have probably been addressed before. Much thanks!

@dadork and oldhvymec I felt like giving MC every benefit of the doubt until he posted the insult below about Almarg's system, even including a link to Al's virtual system to drive home the insult. For reference, I always thought/think of Al as the nicest, most helpful and knowledgeable person ever on A'gon. millercarbon OP7,126 posts07-04-2020 10:11pm The “genius” who lists “stock cables” on his profile Audiogon Systems. That says it all.A portion of Al's response is as follows: Subsequent responses insulting my system constitute "argumentum ad hominem." As stated in that Wikipedia writeup: From my viewpoint MC feels free to spew his waste output on anybody at will, as evidenced by many of his 7,100 posts in two years. But he did teach me one thing, I didn't know Albert Einstein was an X-ray technician, no wonder he is so famous. I would feel no greater honor for 2021 than to be placed as number 19 on the hateful 18 list. |
