| Optimized Center Channel I think that’s just part of streaming and how movies and shows are recorded. Both contribute to poor dialogue. If the majority is through an Apple TV X - have you played around with the “Enhance Dialogue” feature? It’s within settings underneath... | |
| Denon AVR x2800H With Pood Dialog Sound Have you by chance tried the “Enhance Dialogue” feature within the Audio setting of Apple TV? You can also access this setting while watching the majority of the apps, except for YouTube, though. The only issue here is that it also reduces loud ... | |
| What do you care about in this hobby? SQ and aesthetics. I have an open area where my 2-channels is located. For various reasons I’ve really tried to integrate the system into living space so that it doesn’t bring too much attention to itself. For me, it’s more than just the compon... | |
| Why don’t more members post their systems in their profile? @katzenjammer27 from this page go to the top left corner and find the upside down triangle to the right of the Audiogon logo which creates a drop down window > select Virtual Systems > once the Virtual System pages loads go to the top right ... | |
| Is Shindo now Tone Arts Laboratory? Do you have any links to Tone Arts Laboratory - I couldn’t find anything. It seemed like there was limited information about them ceasing production on their website (no mention if I remember). | |
| "Wireless" Speakers for Living Room and Kitchen set up. Agree with all of the responses. I wouldn't force it either and would likely go with Sonos if that's what he wants - Sonos is pretty good at what it does and offers. At the same time, they have done a spectacular job helping people recognize their... | |
| Qobuz vs Airplay so for Apple Music, how does one listen to greater than 48 kHz on other than an Apple device? That’s the problem - you can’t. Apple is a closed ecosystem. It’s why you can’t access your Apple Music library on Roon and other music management/o... | |
| advice on hiding cables @livinon2wheels 100% agree with everything you said and in the same boat on multiple levels. Dedicated is nothing but a dream for many of us. | |
| advice on hiding cables a compromise to in-wall routing on Amazon. I was looking for something similar myself and ran across an add-on channel that runs along the baseboard. This sounds similar to what I did and somewhat visible between the speakers and credenza in m... | |
| Subwoofer for Klipsch Heresy If the system has a vintage vibe and aesthetics matter for the purpose of matching, the REL Classic 98 or 99 may fit the bill. Unsure what veneer your Heresy’s are (Birch, maybe?) since Klipsch appeared to offer multiple options for the first gene... | |
| Encouraging people to consider a traditional 2 channel stereo system. So many variables and posts that I agree with in this thread. Vinyl had a resurgence which I’m sure captured a portion of the younger population. In correlation (not saying causation), older Marantz receivers prices went up exponentially over the ... | |
| Looking for a more up-to-date streamer @foggyus91 does the UltraRendu Plus accept Qobuz Connect, though? Maybe I missed it, but haven’t seen any confirmation. I will say that I could never maintain a stable connection with Spotify Connect and my opticalRendu. Also not the biggest fan ... | |
| the gateway product that turned you into an audiophile Unsure if I’ve always been an audiophile, but I’ve always been attracted to speakers. Starting working at Cineplex Odeon at 15 and the first thing I purchased before saving for a beat up car were these Cerwin Vega VS-120s connected to an old S... | |
| Why the huge increase in the price of Sonus Farber Amanti G5 speakers. I find it difficult to believe that flagging a post automatically gets it deleted. Someone point me to a forum rule that states this is true. @ozzy62 you appear to be correct. As an experiment, I reported your post underneath “other” with exp... | |
| Network Switches A much better route is to treat noise at the source, Broadcom chipset vs Intel chipset in modem, disable wifi on router, emi-rfi contamination, power both via lps Agree with @sns as a good first step prior to diving into FMCs and switches. ... |
