My system is bright? I need help. thanks
I would like to thank the support of the group on this subject. I am experiencing alot of high end glare. I had made some changes in my speaker placement, and couldn't believe it would cause this. When I brought them out into the room, they were in front of the TV screen, causing the glare. Once I moved them back , it reduced the glare. It also reduced the image, which is my next project. I'm looking into room treatments next. Don |
i have heard the resolution audio several times and recently two consonance cd players. neither of the players reminds me of the timbre of an instrument. while i might agree thay are not egregiously annoying players, they are a bit on the analytical side. many of todays players use the burr brown chips and certain capacitors which rob the music of texture. you get a skeleton without the meat. the resulting presentation is very unrealistic as far as live music is concerned. such players are not enjoyable, including the resolution audio and the consonance players. |
Scientist, A lot of good advice above. I am running the MF A308 Integrated and the MF TriVista DAC. I am using Synergistic Research cabeling throught with good success. I would suggust you go with copper cables as as the high end frequency response is slightly less than that of silver. http://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/~jcgl/Scots_Guide/audio/Analog.html The above link hase some good information. |
I don't know if it is politically correct to tell Scientist 73 that it's not rocket science. But, your solution has me ready to toe in my own speakers as there has been a barely noticeable high frequency emphasis since my own speakers were faced straight forward (without my knowledge, officer) by the neatness police, just a few days ago. The brilliant idea that suspicious looking solid bookcase sides are now reflecting more tweeter output just popped into my head from somewhere. Didn't realize how reading books in a darkened library could be a strain on both the eyes, and the ears. Maybe, it's rocket science after all. |
Scientist73, The problem you describe is very common in my experience. The suggestions given in this thread are generally pretty good - I'm going to try the cd mat.... And it sounds like you are making progress within the constraints of your enviornment. But one thing not mentioned here: have you every listened to vinyl? You might be pleasantly surprised. |
