| Speakers on top of subwoofer @lewl28 Too low can easily be raised higher by the simple use of some speaker stands. I cut mine to an exact height. What crossover do you set you subs? A thought to ponder... when I move subwoofers around a room I could always, easily detect ... | |
| Speakers on top of subwoofer @soix vibrations negatively affect sound, so adding significantly more vibrations into the speaker is just never a good idea, period. Agreed, but that's NOT what I'm suggesting. I want to eliminate all vibration going to the speaker and it's ... | |
| Speakers on top of subwoofer @soix What exactly is the "design change' allowing the Wilsons to have the speaker on top of the sub cabinet? Maybe as @steakster points out... Wilson uses The new V-Material, which is used where two parts of the cabinet come together, "behaves... | |
| Those magical days when the HVAC is off You could run your system from a simple 'plug in' battery back-up. Companies, like Ecoflow, will bypass your electrical grid completely. They have batteries to power everything including your whole house. You just need a small one for your stere... | |
| Speakers on top of subwoofer @ghdprentice Don't do this? Wilson is doing it wrong? BTW...these go down to 20 HZ. B&W, TAD and many others do the same split configuration. | |
| Speakers on top of subwoofer This is not a problem. Simply use a vibration isolation pad/feet between the speakers and the subwoofer. Think for a minute how many expensive large floor standing speakers have large, vibrating bass drivers in them. Too many to count AND they h... | |
| Audirvana streaming I'm using Audirvana and Qobuz combo. Happens occasionally. Just do a re-boot of Audirvana program and it usually fixes it. Seems to be a software glitch? | |
| The Psychology Of Collecting "Freud suggested collecting stems from toilet training." During covid or any storm/hurricane the first thing that was cleared off the shelves was toilet paper. People collected/hoarded far more than they needed and creating unnecessary scarcity. ... | |
| Upgrading to a stand alone DAC @helomech +1 Many of these DACs have very inexpensive IC chips costing less then $1. Cost restraint prevents them from using discreet op/amps. An inexpensive "Chi-Fi" DAC can be had for as little as $300 with an interchangeable op/amp chip opt... | |
| Have you noticed as your system improves? I agree with Paul McGowen who says music should be played appropriately loud. There's a restriction of resolution when the volume knob is too low. Low volume acts like stepping on the brake pedal. It's reasonable to play acoustic music at a natu... | |
| Humour What's the first step in curing audiophilia? Stop playing with your Tweeter! | |
| Humour Why did the audiophile refuse to eat seafood? Because he heard it was too 'Bass-y' for his taste. A real knee slapper!! | |
| Humour I don't get it. | |
| If A.I. took the place of musicians, would you listen to it? Kraftwerk... 'we are the robots' They (robot legs dancing only) were the featured act at the music awards back in the 80's. Was very popular and interesting to listen to. Singers made themselves sound like robots and now robots are sounding li... | |
| If A.I. took the place of musicians, would you listen to it? A good song would still be enjoyable to listen to no matter who made it. I don't see a reason to hate on it just because it's AI generated. It's up to you. If you like an AI generated song... fine. I wouldn't try to censor it. If the real arti... |
