| Downsizing from tower to bookshelf I heard the bigger studio electrics at a local enthusiasts house when I was buying some speaker cables off him. They seemed to be very musical and do everything well. The owner and maker of Studio Electric lives 30 minutes from me. I’ve been meani... | |
| Streaming from a TV IFI I-Purifier. Use that exact same setup on my system with toslink coming out of tv. Cheap and makes a huge difference. All you need for a situation like that IMO. you use a Toslink to mini toslink and that end plugs into the side of the I Pu... | |
| Large speakers plus EQ, what have you done? Current speakers Paradigm 120H. Powered woofers with room correction from 300h down. Without running the room correction still sound good but with it engaged much tighter more articulate bass. Non corrected sounds much more bloated boomy and loose... | |
| 55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey Money no object buy Sony as they have the best upscaling algorithms. | |
| 55” or 65” TV Screen Size and Your Speakers: Please Join Survey 10ft away a 55 inch will look too small IMO. I have a 65 OLED about 8 ft away and wish it was bigger. Best Buy for the next couple days has a Samsung 77 inch OLED for 1599 or 1699. It’s over half off. IMHO OLED is the only way to go. | |
| B&W 705s3 vs Kef Meta R3 I had KEF 201/2 for a couple years. Nothing muddy about them. Almost too detailed if that’s a thing. They were pretty awesome although fairly ruthless with less than stellar recordings. | |
| Active Wireless speaker, Dynaudio, Buchardt or Sonus Faber? I had some Dynaudio Focus 60xd speakers for a while. Honestly was underwhelmed by them. They didn’t sound bad just kinda bland and ordinary. Never heard the others. | |
| Suggestions for replacement speakers For 2k and for rock and blues I would get used Tekton Double Impacts. | |
| Gustard R26 - different sound signatures in different units So you have bought/sold/and or returned 4 different R26 dacs? Sounds like they have poor quality control and resistor matching. | |
| DAC shopping - Trying to sift through the Hype. Can I trust the reviews these days ?? I was reminded tonight how much a dac makes a difference! I’m using a Naim Nac 272 as preamp streamer. I moved my system upstairs and was using the Naim as a Dac. It sounded fine for the last few weeks but wasn’t really moving me and I wasn’t list... | |
| Bose buys McIntosh Wow!! Didn’t see that one coming! At least not bought out by the Chinese I guess. I haven’t heard a new Mac in 15 years or so but if you can’t make a DAMN fine sounding amp for thousands of dollars you’re doing something wrong. | |
| Friends hi-fi system not very good, what do you do or say? If they ask for honest critique I would give it to them. | |
| Help me find my ideal Stereo Integrated Amp Lyngdorf tdia3400 worth looking into. | |
| 30 yr old speakers- time to replace drivers? That said I am also with others if they need some work I would not put much into them if anything. | |
| 30 yr old speakers- time to replace drivers? Crossovers can last waaayyy more than 15 years. Hell I just sold a 50 year old sansui 9500 that would put the majority of integrated amps under 5k to shame. I know it’s not a speaker. Original caps other than a few small input caps replaced. If th... |
