hi folks,
Many thanks to all of you for your advice and recommendations. I have a lot to learn about optimizing music and sound in general.
I'm just back into good audio after earlier stints with Vandersteen speakers and Grado RS-1 phones, but with a limited budget. So all of this information is really helpful. I suppose one rule to follow is... audition a piece of equipment and if it doesn't do it then return it (easier with a store nearby). Given my small budget I may start with the SVS SB1000 and perhaps try the 2000 if that becomes possible. My understanding is that the SVS line is the best at this price point (under $1000).
Tim, thank you for your detailed information about setting up the system. hat will take some time, but it appears to be time well spent in really getting the right balance. It helped a lot.
I really like how the speakers sound, and the PowerNode II with Bluos app running Tidal CD quality tracks is easy to use. But this set of comments reinforces the idea that a sub is the way to go to make the system really sing.
thank you!
paul
