subwoofers and panels don't mix
I'd believe that - a pair of F212's seems to be the current state of the art from what I've read, never heard them. The fun part of the Hsu 15H is they are 850 each! Basically free compared to the JLs :).I still think its crazy that we are doing t... 
Magnepan 3.7
Since we are arguing things that can't really be proven and are off topic, I'd like to join in the fun. In the 80's the 'best speaker' was Beveridge, not Infinity, although the Infinities were quite good. For subs you want something with no ports,... 
subwoofers and panels don't mix
Hey guys, I ran across some interesting developments here and thought they might bear out on what we are discussing.Hsu has a new subwoofer (not so new now, but newer than the latest post above) and it might help us with panel integration. It is c... 
MartinLogan Motion 4 vs Gallo A'Diva
I just bought them! I am very very happy with them.So - to explain again the rationale here - first of all, it is really really bad for tubes to be turned on and off many times (I think this applies to some tubes, not all, but I have the ones that... 
J river Media Center 16 settings.....HELP
Ahhh... You have to indicate VLink in the ASIO app, not in JRiver, in JRiver just choose ASIO (if using ASIO4All). Interesting. 
J river Media Center 16 settings.....HELP
I'm a bit confused here too. First, though, I have to say that I don't think there is any info on how to configure JRiver for V-Link playback on the psaudio site, but I could be wrong. I'm getting jumpy erratic playback at best... ASIO doens't do ... 
Berkeley Alpha Dac Series II, anyone heard it?
Interesting. Makes me wonder exactly how this works - does each clock control its downstream component, or does the clock in the DAC control the computer? I mean, I'm assuming at that price that there is a clock in the USB device, that may not be ... 
Review: Pass Labs XA60.5 monobloks Amplifier
Yeah - no - wait - I agree with you, and mentioned seeing the graph where you can see over 500 hz they start to fall apart, but you are already bi-amping? So the issue is to get that power *only* to the bass panel. At 225 Hz and lower they are fla... 
Pass Labs:What to expect fm XA60.5 to XA100.5
Yeah - Spectron - that is what I meant when I said Spectral :). 
Berkeley Alpha Dac Series II, anyone heard it?
Okay, you are right. There is a review here:http://www.computeraudiophile.com/content/Berkeley-USB-review-upcomingIn the comments, but I thought it was for Series 2 as the Series 2 product is discussed right next to it but with very careful readin... 
Magnepan 3.7's versus 20.1's?
New Tympani's would be absolutely incredible!!!! 
When is digital going to get the soul of music?
DSD, i.e., .dffGoogle "Sonoma" recording systems. 
Berkeley Alpha Dac Series II, anyone heard it?
I know these forums hate it if you mention another forum, but, hey, I mentioned Audiogon over there today, so it is all even :).ComputerAudiophile has a lot of info/commentary right now and review of this piece coming up soon.Some of the folks the... 
Playback Designs MPD-3
The Berkeley has a whole new thing going on as of this month (not just the asynch usb, but a new unit which is more tailored to accept info from the asynch usb and lower noise through the connection) which is supposed to be pretty incredible - peo... 
Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use?
For Vinyl sound from a digital rig, read about .dff playback on a Meitner, PBD, or Mytek DAC. This is .dff file playback from a computer, not SACD.Supposed to be the best - closest to vinyl, but we need a lot of support in order to anything to mov...
