| Adding a preamp to HT setup Millercarbon, interesting system, but not everybody wants their system/room to look like a mad scientist's lab. Especially if it is a shared space which so many of us have to accommodate. | |
| Audioquest thunder vs tornado HC powercords I have a Thunder and a Tornado. Not sure I could say I hear much of a difference between them. Both sound good and were within $150 of each other in the used market. Using one on source and one on the integrated. | |
| The shams, scams and dead ends of the High Fidelity hobbie/passion/adiction +1 Millercarbon! That stuff is like the Goop products Gweneth Paltrow flogs to the brainless | |
| Anybody have Focal Kanta 2 I think it’s pretty vague to lump all solid state (or tubes for that matter) into one “sound”. There is a wide continuum of sound across either implementation. | |
| Roon: everything you need to know Roon is a resource 🐷 pig. Seems like most of the overhead is in the library management functions but some DSP settings really adds to the load as well. | |
| Speaker recommendations 10 to 30k and no beryllium Prof,l have been there many times and found no such issues. They were always friendly and accommodating. | |
| Suggestions for an Amp and/or Preamp. dclakers OP2 posts02-03-2020 10:43pmI'm located in Kansas Cityin the great state of Kansas? ;) | |
| Preamps with Dual XLR Outputs Some of the Audio Research pre’s have dual XLR | |
| So what's the better deal (honestly)? I would go with a super expensive paint job on the outriggers... | |
| Beginner: Best all-in-one including speaker unit? Try a Zeppelin from B&W | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 vs Vitus RI-101 Supermerio.... your comparison of the Vitus sia 025 to the Diablo is not relevant to the original comparison requested of the RI-101. The SIA-025 is at a higher level than the Vitus “entry level” integrated. | |
| Amp and Processor I hate to disagree with millercarbon AGAIN but as others here have mentioned, there are some excellent HT processors which sound outstanding for 2 channel listening. My previous Anthem AVM60 springs to mind and I’m certain many others do as well. ... | |
| Digital Tone Controls - Roon and Others, really not bad Miller-DSP is a great feature, but even it can’t make a turntable listenable. Eric-I really like the parametric EQs available in Roon. Haven’t gotten around to creating and using the convolution filters but they seem like a great way to add digita... | |
| Do you prefer tidy room to messy one with better sound? I personally could not stand a messy, cluttered listening environment-too distracting. My favourite rooms I see on this forum’s systems pages are the simple, well laid out minimalist (but veeery high quality) systems. My least favourite are the “g... | |
| What do you think about this statement about "AUDIOPHILE"? Millercarbon is of course totally wrong in his assumption that speakers are not the biggest influence of a system’s overall sound. It has been proven numerous times that they are. See, everyone has an opinion, it’s the internet kids! |
