| Speaker Questions A "BIG +1" for the tweaks! (As mentioned in the above post)! And also "Room Treatments"! Those being (as) if not more important than those speaker "tweak" types of improvements as well! Tons of those both, listed on this site! | |
| Using battery power to go off the City's power grid When calculating, it is advisable to take into consideration the device (IR) value. And "Not" because of the "Initial Rush" of power to the device. As most would think to apply this number. For audio applications, the gears accumulative (IR) valu... | |
| Using battery power to go off the City's power grid Make your own batteries. Easy. | |
| Using battery power to go off the City's power grid This thread's contributors are killing me with how this power (Conundrum)? Which most of us here have realized. How you are approaching it. I think what caught my eye here at first was the nomenclature and its use in this thread. And beginnin... | |
| The Future of Hifi is just being Discovered Cryogenically treated, micro-grain, solid carbide tooling became "all the rage" back in the early 1980's. That is the last time that "I" remember (Cryo) treated metals being espoused as- "Cutting Edge" tech.! | |
| What is the best 2 channel listening chair? Hmm... I love my orange "lawn chair" with the "milk crate" for my flip-flop covered feet... (It’s a minimalist thing)! But really, - A low-backed, suede leather covered "La-Z-Boy" chair. (Very low wave-diffraction coefficient, plus high partic... | |
| Opinions: Martin Logan Renaissance 15a vs. Bowers & Wilkins 800D3 Good choice with the B&W 800D3's! I "almost" purchased a pair myself when they were first offered. At that time, I had been listening to them during scheduled auditions at my local Hifi store. And at the end of the initial session, I asked i... | |
| Recommend me a Class A Integrated Amp (or sound like Class A amp) And the sound? Easily on par with "Pass" gear quality. Just a touch different.. In fact, I finally parted with my "Pass Labs", (X-350) after finding "Manley" gear! | |
| Recommend me a Class A Integrated Amp (or sound like Class A amp) "Manley Labs", "Stingray" integrated. You simply cannot go wrong... Different yes, but "wrong" with "Manley" gear? "NO". | |
| Subwoofer with Floorstanding Speakers? Like; "Slaw" above. I use the Martin Logan "Depth" in my small system. But use (4) of the Martin Logan, "Descent" subwoofers in my main rig. Which is an actual, "Line Source", "Dipole" system. Just (1) of the "Depth" subs will impress you. ... | |
| McIntosh Group purchased by PE firm I am not trying to change the subject. But a few of us, were talking... "China", (people's republic of), is no one's friend. Not even if you happen to be Chinese. "IT", really only has but (one), very singular goal. And "IT" will not eve... | |
| Line Array VS Traditional Box Speakers, Why not just get the line array ? Ok, so the O.P. wants his sound to as closely reproduce the sound he gets at live venues. I know exactly what he's talking about. And also, what he is after. Almost everyone here keeps talking about, "Line Array's". Almost no-one has even menti... | |
| How much faster of a sub is the REL T5X vs SVS SB12-NSD After trying or at the least seriously listening to them at shows "Either by early or late sessions to avoid possible crowding". I auditioned them all. And I do mean "All" of the offerings available on the higher end of the spectrum. With the e... | |
| Correct way to attach speaker wires... Wait, what!!! I have found, "finally" what I believe I will use until the end. "De-oxit Gold", the 100% liquid solution. Swabbed on and then wiped off. It then dries completely over time. And it somehow does, "improve" electrical connections of any type. I ha... | |
| Check this out, if you already haven't. There are wayyyyy more people than you think with collections similar to this one. And uhm...even some with quite a bit more gear actually. "Quite" a bit more... I didn't think he had that much actually... Uhm... It's an addiction. A disease. ... |
