HOLO Audio Spring DAC: Affordable discrete R2R Multibit Dac, could be a winner.
My current computer is just not powerful enough to do high res Dsd. Have you tried DSD64 and -2 poly filters?  I am fairly sure if your pc can handle upsampling to 352 you can do at least DSD64. 
Anyone use Rel Longbow wireless system?

2 subs in a small room?
Thanks guys.  I am just trying to understand the phenomena people describe that subs can help with other areas of the freq response.  To me, this can only happen if the sub is outputting something unless you are using an EQ or room correction.  An... 
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
OK I am going to bite. My Accustic Arts Power 1 integrated amp currently has a HiFi Tuning Gold fuse in it for the main fuse. I will buy the SR Black. If this does anything I will then move to the various internal ones which are 4 x F4L250V. I wil...

What happened to the "club atmosphere" of Audiogon?
patented Audiogon "Buy N’ Try" methodology HA HA HA! So I owe all of this to you! I must admit that at times back then I felt like I was single handedly supporting the audiophile industry with all my purchases.  Those were the good ol’ days for s... 
How To Improve The Slow Traffic On Audiogon Systems Pages
Very timely post! I was actually thinking the same thing yesterday.  At least for me, following the evolution of people's system was most of the fun for me on this forum.  Kind of like the Facebook of audiophile systems without the creepy selfies,... 
What happened to the "club atmosphere" of Audiogon?
What I really miss is how crazy people’s systems were and how active the buying/selling used to be. Prior to the economic turn down, people in this forum used to swap out gear regularly which resulted in a very active marketplace for some awesome,...

2 subs in a small room?

2 subs in a small room?
perfectpathtech, may I ask where you placed the second sub relative to the first? I  know each room is different but I am just trying to get a feel for sub placement.

lancelock, may i ask where you placed the second sub relative to the first?  I understand the second one should not be placed in the same mirrored location.   
2 subs in a small room?
martykl, I do have an SPL meter but I have been thinking about using room correction with something like DIRAC.  At the very minimum I am going to get a USB mic and measure properly measure my room using Room EQ Wizard.jafant, I appreciate the com...
