| Isoacoustics Gaia ll footers plus carpet spikes I saw that same video a few months ago and I have to agree the difference was very noticeable. Seriously considering the iii’s | |
| My JL Audio sub is dead. What exactly happened? Singingtheblues, I wouldn’t hold my breath, however JL has obviously owned up to the issue somewhat by offering their quite reasonable $300 flat rate fix for out of warranty repairs. My guess is that’s about what their cost is on those plate amps ... | |
| My JL Audio sub is dead. What exactly happened? Well, just to add to the group misery, one of my F110v1 just up and died. Being in Canada, the shipping and whole border thing (customs were a bear to deal with last time) has me wondering if I should just buy a cheap and powerful class D amp like... | |
| From Denafrips Pontus to Lumin I can’t comment on the Denifrips as I have never heard one. As an owner of the Lumin T1 I can state that it is an incredible sounding unit that works flawlessly. This is a completely realized product from an established manuafacturer. Jackd is cor... | |
| Best multi channel amp and processor good for 2 channel listening. I will give another vote to the AVM60. It really is a superior unit with amazing steering logic. The ARC software does a commendable job of “ironing out” all the various speakers (different sizes, types, brands, locations) to create a unified and ... | |
| Hey RICH Audiophiles Wcfeil,i dont know, I think dobnbrav makes some valid points. If you want to hear hi end gear you likely can’t afford, get on a plane to a major city centre and visit some dealers or go to axpona or similar shows. If you can’t afford that, stay in... | |
| Paradigm Persona series Crying about the cost of grills on a high end speaker like this is like moaning about the price of a tuneup on your Ferrari..... | |
| Amp for Revel Ultima Studio 2s I don’t really find the Studio2 to be nearly as hard a drive as the Salon2 which is a few dB less efficient and has a rather brutal impedance curve. That said, the Studios do respond to good clean power, but can be driven successfully with any hig... | |
| ARC REF 150 Buzzing noise Agree that this sounds like transformer hum. Hopefully from the external sources as this would be fatally expensive to replace any of the 3 xformers in your amp. Try to eliminate other sources as mentioned above. | |
| Abominations: HT processor to tube amps? I used to use an Audio Research VT100 for the left/right HT channels (pass through) in my main 2 channel rig. Worked great, but a tad over kill for the installation but my priority has always been 2 channel listening, so I used the gear I had on h... | |
| Difference between " AES " and " RMS " power of a driver. I think I think AES stands for Audio Engineering Socity, but I have never seen this listed as a wattage specification. RMS means Root Mean Square, and is used to denote the “average” power indication for sine wave. This value normalizes the wattag... | |
| PS Direct Stream latest firmware, "Snowmass" Also a small company called dCS | |
| Cardas Clear Light vs Clear Sky I will second Maritime51s recommendation on the clear light. Using both xlr interconnect and speaker cable, very nice. That said, have not heard the Cygnus line. | |
| Building a $1200 RCA Interconnect Cable Another reason why I prefer balanced XLR connections | |
| WHAT HAPPENED TO SONUS FABER? Well I really liked the old SF models I heard; Cremona M and an older Ellipsa but I have to say, I really love the look and sound of the two newer models I’ve heard; Olympica iii and the amazing Amati. I think SF are in good hands. For those bitch... |
