| Distributed Bass Array Speaker Placement I have Romeyn's DBA and appreciate what you suggest. To rephrase my question, how important is time delay in the placement of a subwoofer system? Many suggest it's very important and many of these same folks use DSP to accomplish it. I cannot do... | |

| Nuclues plus bricked I’m just glad I did not get sucked into their lifetime subscription. | |
| Nuclues plus bricked Ironically, it just started cutting out as I wrote the above passage. | |
| Nuclues plus bricked My nucleus plus has died twice. First time they replaced the motherboard, second time they replaced everything except the chassis. Even with entirely new innards, they would only give it a 90 day warranty which indicates how much confidence they h... | |
| Roon support or lack thereof, Part 2 I don’t think bringing this to the attention of Audiogoners is petty. If I was aware of this issue, I would never have bought it. Again, caveat emptor. | |
| Roon Support, or lack thereof I was hoping this was a software issue and thought I would deal directly with the device experts to try to troubleshoot the problem. After It was apparent that it was a hardware problem I finally contacted him since the folks at Roon appeared to b... | |
| Roon Support, or lack thereof Just received it back. It works. I didn’t have the original packaging but did a nice job with foam, bubble wrap, etc. They returned it in my same packaging, which I found “cheap”. I suppose they thought I would just throw their packaging away ag... | |
| Roon Support, or lack thereof Through a dealer. Why do you ask? | |
| First impressions of the Isoacoustic Gaia 1’s Have the 2 series under my W-B Vectors and the 1 series under my DBA. Huge improvement with the 2, notable with the 1. Things just kind of locked in. I would have liked to try the Townsend but was concerned that they would be difficult to move i... | |
| Vandersteen Speakers.. Are All Other Speaker Makers Doing It Wrong ? Wilson Benesch also do a great job of attending to “distortion, compression, cabinet resonances and diffraction…” in addition to time and phase coherence. They manufacture in-house virtually all of their speaker components so there is virtually ... | |
| Speaker relative efficiency/sensitivity when using a high pass filter @nymarty I am using a Devialet 400. It has high and low pass filters along with time delay. I have a Dayton Audio SA1000 as my subwoofer amp with second order and fourth order high and low pass filters, respectively, at 80Hz but I am not currentl... | |
| Speaker relative efficiency/sensitivity when using a high pass filter I am thinking tubes as well but did not want to go down that path and incur/incite the commentary about there being plenty of high output tube amplifiers. Thanks for broaching it. I also want to entertain lower power AB SS amps. I have a fondness... | |
| Speaker relative efficiency/sensitivity when using a high pass filter Understood, hence my calling it "relative efficiency". I appreciate that your and Erik's replies are semantically more appropriate. So it appears there is a decrement in the current/voltage required to drive a speaker to only 80Hz instead of 35 ... |
