| Aurender vs. Roon Anybody with these dedicated music servers ever compared or done a shootout with a Ethernet-2-USB converter. The reason I ask is that I have a very busy (though audibly quiet) work computer running ROON server and I stream my music to my DAC via a... | |
| T+A elektroakustik HV Series Components @david_ten Does your 3100 integrated have the Room Correction option installed? If so, can you comment on the effectiveness of the feature. | |
| Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400. @aniwolfe Thanks for the feedback. I really loved the sound of the preamp on the 2170. If I get the 3400, which I expect too, I will give it the 400 hours and enable RP. I need DSP in my small now treated room. I am hoping to get some speakers tha... | |
| Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400. The Lyngdorf web site does not seem to have the preamp only version. If it did I would have just bought that and be done with. I want to get the latest software bits on the RoomPerfect and it seems to me that they have discontinued the preamp only... | |
| Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400. @bullitt5094 I only have a pair of KEF LS50's left at home. I needed to evaluate this unit with more demanding speakers.The dealer has offered to have a DSP shootout for me in his glass walled conference room. It is slightly bigger than my room bu... | |
| Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400. @grannyring You state that the Lyngdorf is not meant to be used with a separate amp. The only reason this could be is if the signal from the preamp to the amp is further adjusted via ROOM PERFECT. I did not use RP in my demo so maybe I missed tha... | |
| Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400. Rereading this long thread I saw the following quote.Lyngdorf will need the following to sound its best;- let it burn in for at least 200 hours before any decision making critical listening- needs a good power cord and conditioner- leave it fully ... | |
| Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400. I went and demoed the Lyngdorf 2170 with Paradigm Persona 5F speakers. They are not that hard to drive. I was not impressed by the amplification on the Lyngdorf. When I switched to Lyngdorf pre-amp output to a Simaudio 860A amp the sound was incre... | |
| Best beginner system about 5,000.00 What I am using now in my office is really good for the price. KEF LS50 ($1000 new) + Peachtree Nova 150 integrated ($1300 new). I also have a tuner and SACD player hooked up to the Peachtree (not need by everyone). I stream music from my computer... | |
| Big speakers in small room at moderate volume levels https://audiophilestyle.com/ca/reviews/kef-ls50-david-versus-jbl-4722-cinema-goliath-speaker-compari...I think what I am hearing now with the LS50's is what the above article is showing with measurements. | |
| Big speakers in small room at moderate volume levels @gosta When I had my speakers on my desk I found that using the low cost isoacoustic stands helped a lot by elevating the speaker above the desk. It also angled the sound away from the desk. It would be interesting to hear your thoughts on the ARC2. | |
| Big speakers in small room at moderate volume levels @tomic601 I will take a look at the Home Depot panels. I can walk to Home Depot so it will be easy to check out.I am currently listening to Led Zeppelin’s debut and I was thinking why does this sound so good now. I know the acoustic panels made a ... | |
| Big speakers in small room at moderate volume levels Now it is time to figure out what gear to get. First thing is to get a preamp that is DSP capable. I want something that has defeatable DSP and also good quality DSP. I do not need DSP with the KEF LS50’s. I may not with the TAD ME1 but the other ... | |
| Big speakers in small room at moderate volume levels I have added photos of the new setup. I removed the CD rack from the room,it was in the way of the left side wall panel. The setup I have is likely what most people with treatments have done. It has really transformed my room. The LS50s sound rea... | |
| Preview: CODA Technologies new generation number#8 Stereo Amplifier I have been thinking of a CODA for about 6 months now. I was tempted to buy that 50 watt Class A amp they have for $4.5K but I needed a bit more power for the speakers I owned at that time. I am glad I waited and this new #8 sounds interesting. I ... |
