| PADIS vs Furutech fuses ahhh, free speech at its best. And we've degraded into insults already. | |
| Open Floor Plan Listening Room Ah, I re-read your original post. It looks like you have a very large rectangle room (open room) that contains both kitchen and living room. It is still considered a single room and will have bass "room nodes":https://amcoustics.com/tools/amroc?l=... | |
| Open Floor Plan Listening Room +1 randy-11Closing a room or making a room smaller will increase the amount of bass problems you have in the room because you will be causing more bass nodes that will cancel/boost certain frequencies.An open floor plan will actually help bass res... | |
| PADIS vs Furutech fuses Yeah, nobody here is going to care enough to get the expensive equipment to try to measure a fuse. We are a collection of audiophiles, not engineers. | |
| Amp recommendation and setup advice please The Audio-GD site is legit and you have to order direct from China. I have not ordered any of their items, but many others have and you can search the forums if you want. The NFB-29.28 is offered in two version: Version 1: 100-120V AC 50/60 ... | |
| Do I need a preamp/processor? The audio coming out of the TV via toslink is either going to be 2-channel stereo or multi-channel Dolby Digital (which can only be handled by an HT Processor).I would not get wireless speakers at all because you will be sacrificing sound quality ... | |
| JBL SCL-3 or JBL S4Ai? The S4Ai are more dipole/bipole designed speakers which have more of a ambient type of sound.The SCL-3 are direct radiating and you will probably hear more detailed and higher impact type of sounds from this driver. Since it is more "direct radia... | |
| Picking an amplifier Okay further analysis. The Musiland has TRS85812NL on the RCA and BNC outputs. These are transformers for digital audio data transmission (which is the proper way to output SPDIF):http://www.microchip.ua/trxcom/telecom/np97-100.pdf It does not app... | |
| Musings on Switching Power Supplies (LPS for Oppo / DirecTV/ Radiance) Yep, and the 203 no longer support Netflix streaming, which I use a lot!I have seen that Clones Audio power supply as well and it looks like a very nice one indeed! Unfortunately, like you said, they don't make one for the older 103 models.There... | |
| Do I need a preamp/processor? Erik's suggesting of combining an Oppo 103/105/203/205 with a Parsound P7 is an excellent one. There are also looking at a really nice HT Processor. It all depends on your budget. Can you give us an idea of what you're able or willing to spend ... | |
| Picking an amplifier Just googling around. Not sure if you found this, but the Musiland digital times does indeed have a Windows 10 driver:http://emotivalounge.proboards.com/thread/50430/musiland-digital-times-transport-review I may have to try this card out sometime... | |
| Picking an amplifier That’s an interesting find. It’s hard to know for sure from the description if those RCA sockets are COAX SPDIF or if the card only supports toslink. You are paying for 7 analog channels, however. I think the Xonar Essence will still be better, bu... | |
| Power Cords @guidocorona @ricred1 I whole heartedly concur with a couple of your statements on being objective. The idea of someone pushing a statement as the be-all-end-all "fact" and then continuing on a rant to try to force this idea without offering any o... | |
| Musings on Switching Power Supplies (LPS for Oppo / DirecTV/ Radiance) This next step in the process came about a day after the Teradak was in the mix, during burn-in period. I found that the audio had suddenly become a little bright/harsh again. After extensive testing, what I found was that the fuses and power ... | |
| Musings on Switching Power Supplies (LPS for Oppo / DirecTV/ Radiance) Okay, so what’s next. There’s still those switching power supplies in my DirecTV receiver and Radiance video processor. Upon investigating, I can see that the switching power supply adapters clearly show voltage specifications: Radiance: 12V... |
