| Marantz SACD 30n vs ND8006 / CD50n "Being an older player, I would like a new player with more detail without being too analytical and which does not have a less pronounced bass than mine." I can highly recommend the Luxman D-03X. Sounds fabulous, and the "invert phase" button is... | |
| Steely Dan UHQR OP- Very good point about 80 YO ears mastering an album. $150 for Aja? No thanks, I'm perfectly happy with hearing that album from my Luxman D-03X CDP. | |
| Have you found your "End-Game" speakers yet? I have. And it feels so good!!! Had twelve pairs of "end game" speakers since 1975. Current pair are B&W 803 D3. Had them for a little over a year. Perfectly happy, so far... | |
| Luxman D03X vs D10X @phillyb Not only do I use the Invert Phase button on every disc, I use it at the beginning of every song. Even on the same album some songs require it, some don't. I can tell usually within a few seconds if it's needed or not. I can't imagine... | |

| Acoustically Treating a Bomb Shelter Place absorption panels at first reflection points front wall (the wall you're looking at behind the speakers), side walls, ceiling, and rear wall (the wall behind you). My dedicated room is treated just that way. Sounds wonderful. Yours will too. | |
| Acoustically Treating a Bomb Shelter My friend also lived in Texas, and also in the same radon level class as your county. Most homes here with basements have none to low levels of radon. His home had very high levels. | |
| Acoustically Treating a Bomb Shelter Perfect listening room. Congrats! Tested for Radon? Had a friend who spent time in his basement. Died from radon exposure. He was in his 40s. | |
