| Connecting a streamer via an Ethernet cable Always use a wired connection and only use wifi when you can’t use a wired connection. | |
| Diffuser or absorber behind listening position....and is it worth doing?? MC has no clue on acoustics, to treat a room properly will require both absorption and diffusers. Glass is the worst for acoustics, no pods/springs will fix that. Go to the experts like GIK, ASC, or Acoustic Fields (as examples) to get their opini... | |
| Can someone please explain brighter = shrill sounding, no bass, weak midrange, metal dome bad tweeter. NHT with bryston for example.warmer = relaxed treble, good midrange, clean bassdarker = mixing a warm sounding amp with a warm sounding speaker. Sonus Faber speakers with ... | |
| The two most common mistakes are bass and treble What a joke about not purchasing speakers with sensitivity ratings lower than 90 or lower than an 8 ohm load. In this 1 sentence, you pretty much eliminated every "best" speaker on the market. Most of these "best" speakers have sensitivity ratings... | |
| Have I got the wrong amp? or the wrong speakers? Some old "jay" receivers from the 70's were very good like the Yamaha CR series (especially the cr2020), others not so good. Also, there are some good receivers in todays market: look up the Mcintosh MAC7200 receiver, it will blow away what MC is ... | |
| Reel to Reel Woes why not look at an Otari with 15ips capability? Balanced outputs and inputs, 10" reels, awesome deck | |
| Minimum Broadband Speed Necessary For Uninterrupted Qobuz and/or Tidal Listening? It’s not your router or anything inside your house, it’s the copper network. Copper is shared with all your neighbors and that’s why your speed varies. Also with copper, your download speeds are 10x faster than your upload speed. Also copper is no... | |
| $5k-$6K DACs w Roon? Not sure what your bias is against the vendors on your "do not get" list but I would choose 1 of those over any of the 1's you are interested in. If you do want to go with only the 1's on your list, then the Bricasti would be my pic. Sounds like y... | |
| I just finished my new listening room... I would want to hide those speakers behind curtains or doors too and probably would improve the sound | |
| 2 Ohm Tekton Pendragons Who listens to MC anyway? He is so wrong on many of his comments. A 2 ohm load is going to be a problem for most amps. With speakers like what MC has, you would be spending around a grand or 2 for an amp to match the caliper of his speakers and no... | |
| Is this an right time to buy hifi? Never buy Bitcoin, and silver and gold aren’t that great of investments. There are so many better investments to make out there.As for an audio system, car, and other tangibles, these are not investments, they lose money the minute you take them o... | |
| Dream Speakers = landed. Now I need to feed them! Check out the ps audio sprout 100 integrated amp. I use 1 in my office and for $600 it sounds very nice. There have been a couple of reviews of it in magazines that were positive. | |
| Finally found a space for the speakers I’ve been storing... and I don’t love them any more It didn’t take long for MC to put a plug in for tekton even though he has never heard this model. Nobody takes MC seriously anyway.Revel speakers are far superior to Tekton and the studios you have. Revel’s will need a good quality (the larger spe... | |
| Pimping your router Asvjerry- now you know why MC prefers analog over digital, his craftsman router wasn’t performing up to par. He tried putting springs on it and using Home Depot interconnects and speaker wire with not much luck either | |
| Anyone have the Answer? MC-you keep rattling off garbage and most people think you are a fool. You turn a simple question into some BS propaganda that doesn’t relate to anything and you put people down in the process. We all get a good laugh out of your silly replies so ... |
