| Why does my system now have shrill top end. When you plugged your amp into the P5, did it do anything for the harshness?Kenny | |
| Vibration isolation That's a great point about using the Seismic Corners to handle the entire rack. I would have to first get comfortable about having my rack wobble around like my subs when nudged, however. Honestly, I'm not sure if I'm ready for that one yet...But,... | |
| Vibration isolation hifiman5,Thanks. My subs have never been spiked. Like my main speakers, the subs started out sitting directly on top of Symposium Super Plus platforms. While these platforms noticeably improved the bass of my main speakers in my old house, the pla... | |
| Vibration isolation My problem was mechanical feedback causing my turntable to oscillate from the addition of subs sitting on a wood suspended floor also shared by my rack. I first tried dealing with the turntable by upgrading the feet to Raven Black Night that have ... | |
| Stand alone tweeter? Your Tron stages have a relaxed sound, and I would imagine so do your Totems. If the Trons are new they do take time to settle down. Otherwise, you can try plugging your power amp directly into the wall if you currently have them plugged into your... | |
| Power Conditioner Advice please... Your sound being better at night is pretty normal, but it doesn't mean you have bad power. I would pick one of the less costly options as mentioned, and test that option at "night." Then, does your system sound better with the conditioner or witho... | |
| Looking for a monitor with great midrange audiogabby,Sorry, I missed your 1K budget.Kenny | |
| Great music few are aware of. Any genre. Wow, that's a lot. I'm going to limit this to recent albums I've acquired that were unknown to me or that I missed along the way.Enzo Enzo - Ariola BOPL 1004 - This sort of fits into French cafe music. My daughter told me she likes French Cafe mus... | |
| Looking for a monitor with great midrange There would still be many to choose from, so do you have a budget?Kenny | |
| Support table or shelf for turntable I used the Townshend Isolation Bars under my subs that killed the mechanical feedback coming through my floor and up my rack into my turntable. Before, a loud oscillating wobble sound, but after the Bars, nothing. I am pretty sure that the mechani... | |
| Speakers are the first piece of the puzzle Due to a lifetime of revolving systems, changing rooms, and my changing tastes in sound, it was not until more recent times that the speaker first concept finally made some sense. However, I had to find "my sound" first.With that said, I feel that... | |
| Open Floor Plan Listening Room There are number of cabling options, so it depends on what you pick. The sub amps I use have RCA inputs, but there are other models (same brand) with XLR inputs. I also use the high level inputs into the sub amps from my line stage, so the subs ar... | |
| Open Floor Plan Listening Room Sandpat,I meant you can check out my system here on Audiogon regarding the subs. The pictures will give you an idea of my space, so what my challenge was.Kenny | |
| Open Floor Plan Listening Room I solved my problem by adding open baffle subs. My speakers want closed corners, but I don't have a pair of them. So, I needed more fill-in. It was a leap of faith investment, but the addition worked out great. If you're interested, you can check... | |
| Moving the Soundstage; Help. I don't know anything about your setup and you may have already tried this, but if your speakers are toed-in just try turning them out slightly. Yo may not get the results you're looking for but it's free.Kenny |
