Yes... Ralph... I will try some of your suggestions. I have your M60's and have talked with you about upgrades - though, I think mine have the 3.3. upgrades. I'll try the 16 ohm taps and maybe the 4 ohm taps to see if that makes a difference with the ARC 150se's. And I'm using Paul's cables, and have his Zeroformers, which I got for your M60's for my Maggies. But, as you know... the M30.1's and M40.2's have a bit of an emphasis in upper bass / lower mids, which I resolved with some good SS amps (the ones recommended by Harbeth)... but... I think I may prefer the sound of the ARC 150se, except for the bass bloat that is not there with the SS amps. |
Roon has the ability to run DSP through the output. By all accounts this works very well, and at the price that Roon is, it is a very cost-effective solution. Of course that won't solve vinyl issues. And with CD would require the ripping and storing of the music. But if you do play your music from a digital source and just want dsp with no pre-amp or dac then this would be the best solution. |
Won’t comment on if you do or don’t need a DSP. I’ll leave that to others who seem to know your system better than you do! ;-) I just integrated the DDRC-22D into my system and for my room, my limited ability to treat, and my configuration it was probably one of the best additions ever. It just “brought everything” together. I believe the ability to tweak the response curve was a definite improvement, but the adjustment to the impulse response probably made the biggest improvement, noticeably to the soundstage. Good luck! |
