SPEAKERS THAT SOUND ALIVE & DYNAMIC AT LOW LISTENING LEVELS Oh and my soundstage never shrinks with good analog implementation. It is maintained to slightly larger. | |
SPEAKERS THAT SOUND ALIVE & DYNAMIC AT LOW LISTENING LEVELS @lanx0003, I’ve never heard a digital treble boost to sound as natural and wonderful as an analog one. Digital EQ is totally there for bass management and room correction. But if you are simply tone shaping treble, digital still lacks. | |
SPEAKERS THAT SOUND ALIVE & DYNAMIC AT LOW LISTENING LEVELS Oh don’t get a Luxman just for tone controls. I researched it and the treble dial is a bell centered at 10 khz. Low low! Need delicacy not harsh fatiguing treble. Get a used Massive passive, a stereo program easy to use (but expensive) D W Fearn ... | |
SPEAKERS THAT SOUND ALIVE & DYNAMIC AT LOW LISTENING LEVELS I also own Martin Logan and use Bryston amplification and can say that without EQ and at low SPL the music is lifeless. But with bass and treble modest boost on my EQ the situation is radically better at same low SPL. Music then becomes rich text... | |
SPEAKERS THAT SOUND ALIVE & DYNAMIC AT LOW LISTENING LEVELS Bass and treble boosts are my forte and I can point you in very much better directions than Loki Max. I’ve owned it and it was greatly inferior to a pro analog piece I own for the use case you described | |
SPEAKERS THAT SOUND ALIVE & DYNAMIC AT LOW LISTENING LEVELS I have extensive experience with EQ. Please reach out to me. | |
Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Assume skimped on internals as well. Didn’t explain that well | |
Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Unfortunately I don’t anymore. Mike quit supervising the other company s work around 2018 and they changed production. Changed faceplate. Sounded inferior from that point on. | |
Equalizer in a Hi Fi system Thanks for sharing! Very cool. I own 3 CO PEQ-1 now. Nothing else sounds quite like it! | |
What % Of Your System Are Your Cables? 19% | |
SR Tuning Discs, Psychoacoustic Bias and Listening Fatigue I am sorry I used the term snake oil at this point in the discussion. But I DID acknowledge clearly more than once that just because I don’t hear it doesn’t mean it’s universally true for everyone. | |
SR Tuning Discs, Psychoacoustic Bias and Listening Fatigue 😁🎶 | |
SR Tuning Discs, Psychoacoustic Bias and Listening Fatigue Yes. Understood. Thanks. I am open minded, despite that I don’t sound that way with these SR discs. Couldn’t help but poke a little fun at the whole “just use the sticky putty to affix the Tuning Disc to your [fancy] cable” thing. 😁. As a dedicate... | |
SR Tuning Discs, Psychoacoustic Bias and Listening Fatigue And I don’t want to mock. I really don’t. So I did take the task seriously and really really tried to hear a benefit. But didn’t. Either straight signal or with a high end studio analog mastering EQ with W shaped curve in signal path. That doesn... | |
SR Tuning Discs, Psychoacoustic Bias and Listening Fatigue Funny, yes…not nearly as funny as the notion of taking a tiny carbon disk, well less than the diameter of dime, and affixing it with sticky putty to a nice cable to confer an audible benefit. I honestly tried though over days to hear a benefit. J... |
