| Upgrade from modified Bluesound Node 2i and linear power supply (LPS) ? I went from the Vault2i to a Lumin U1 Mini and a week later after sending the Lumin back I landed on the Auralic Aries G1. The Vault is a pretty unit but the Auralic was definitely a step up and easily bested the Lumin). I currently have my Aurali... | |
| Dynaudio Contour 30 or ATC SCM40 Which ever one you like the sound of better. If you can't go to a dealer and listen to them then order them both and send back which ever you don't like. | |
| Advice from Audiogon family - best speaker $3k-$4k If you liked the Sonus Faber, buy them that's my advice. Otherwise go listen to a bunch of others in that price range and if you like something you hear better buy that instead. | |
| Your sub experience: Easy or hard? I didn't think it was to bad. I have a dedicated treated 11.5 x 14 room. I have a pair of subs, moved them around the room while using REW to measure each position. Once I got the placement close to my liking I then used the on board adjustments ... | |

| SS with meters @gwng8 Buy a pair and bi-amp. At a measured 468wpc it'll run pretty much any speaker in stereo. On my Aurum Cantus V7Fs I've yet to go over the 40w line and that speaker is an 89db 3 way. | |

| Your single most significant purchase mistake? Schitt Aegir - Had a pair that would crash and burn while driving LSA Statement 10s and Fyne F501 speakers. Come to find out their advertised ratings weren't even close according to actual testing by Stereophile and Audio Science Review. After zer... | |
| Vienna Acoustics speakers help Pull the midrange driver out and hook it up to an amp directly then work backwards towards the crossover network to see where signal is lost. | |
| Speaker pairings for Sprout 100 for music listening in medium sized room I paired a Sprout with Triton2s for a client and they really liked it. Source was a Node2i | |
| GIK Vicoustic and others I have a dedicated room the same size and I added 12 GIK 242 panels (4 front wall, 4 back wall and a pair each side wall) which made a nice difference. I emailed with them a few times and sent them pics and REW measurements. For my budget they rec... | |
| Anthem ARC and Subwoofers - A quick review I've got the STR Stack and I agree with saying the ARC will get you to a good start but I definitely tweaked the targets/setting to get it the rest of the way. | |
| How critical is streamer hardware to SQ when it feeds a good DAC? I jumped from the Vault 2i to a Auralic Aries G1 and it was a noticeable jump in overall sound quality. Both were connected to my Anthem STR preamp |
