| What do you consider the most when choosing a pair of speakers? @theaudioamp Listening to a speaker anywhere but in my space is a near meaningless venture. The room colors the sound too much. Actually ones that measure poorly in a chamber, etc, should also work poorly in your room, or anyone’s room. ... | |
| What Is Most Important? most importantly, it will bring you closer to God or alienate you .... we will all die and we won’t be able to take anything with us (except for the formed soul with its history of affairs) What happens to people that listen to only the devil’s... | |
| Anyone have experience with acousticfields.com or with using true pressure traps? Get a mic and REW and do some measurements in the space. Are you thinking of the mass loaded membrane traps? Those are somewhat modellable, but I think you need to have the target freq, and then tune it by adding or taking away a bit of mass at t... | |
| What do you consider the most when choosing a pair of speakers? @monacousticusa The “Engineered for natural sound” would suggest some engineering measurement or principles, but those are not explicitly shown. I don’t see any graphs on your website, so that can be a bit of a show stopper for the data driven t... | |
| Anyone have experience with acousticfields.com or with using true pressure traps? Not yet, but I am super interested. Do you have a way to excite the room and measure the pressure (frequencies) in the corners? You probably need ^that^ to get the traps built to address the frequencies you want to suck up. | |
| Asymmetric pre outs - sound quality issues? Both channels contain the same content for low frequencies… so left, or right are the same. | |
| Good in-wall AC cable @theaudioamp that is all good and correct, and we should minimise ground loops, and using one outlet or circuit is a help. But every one in town is rattling their noise onto the power line, and those fields are going into other circuits in our ho... | |
| Considering a new amp for my Vandersteen Quatro CT Spending thousands on another amp is a waste of money. The Bryston is an excellent and reliable amp. You will only be fooling yourself to think that a newer amp will somehow sound better and more "musical". But a pair of Brysons would be able ... | |
| Good in-wall AC cable I brought my electrician out to my house today to show him where I would like to install a dedicated 20a circuit for my system. He laughed and said that's the stupidest thing he's heard and laughs when people talk about it. It said, if you're g... | |
| New user phono question. Comes with free story. If I was younger, I would move to Canada or Northern Europe… or better yet a small island in the South Pacific The french dropped nukes on some of those. The digital source sounds better, as in WAY better. On digital, listening gives me th... | |
| New user phono question. Comes with free story. Now I am at a cross roads… Sounds like a scene from Supernatural, or some other soul selling show. | |
| Any thoughts on Salamander Synergy cabinets? Just by having synergy in the name, makes it sounds fishy. | |
| Which would you choose for good sounding tube preamp for an audiophile new to tubes. The Supratek ones offers a lifetime warranty. | |
| Subwoofer RCA Cable How fast does something that plays at <= 80Hz need to be? The cheapest red and white RCAs would be as good as anything except for the cheap XLRs. | |
| Subwoofer RCA Cable Sub cables typically have differences in both the conductor and/or dielectric (shielding) to prioritize the current delivery of lower frequencies and… Interconnect cables are typically voltage devices as the input impedance is very high. There ... |
