| iPod Hifi I heard this in the apple story yesterday, granted playing mp3s...i thought it sounded pretty awful, not nearly as good as a wave radio even. Very harsh sounding, no "soundstage", all seems to come from the box, really not much interesting about i... | |
| Subwoofer other than Strata 3 Attilasimon - Try and find a good deal on a Velodyne DD10. Very musical sub, much more flexible than the REL | |
| Your Private Audio Museum Cwlondon - I never really thought about it this way... but I'm glad you pointed it out that all of my hi-fi stuff that I've never gotten around to sell is part of my hi-fi museum! I still live in an apt, but when I do buy a house I will make some ... | |
| I miss my Rega turntable. What to do? Hodu - Ditch the music Hall. The arm is junk. The rega table with rega arm is far superior. | |
| Rowland "house sound"? Fish - What do you find lacking with the Bat? | |
| Wilson Maxx 1 compared to Puppy 6 Sprbggr - I'm on the same page with you. I like the MAXX 1 much better than the WP7. The reasons why I prefer the MAXX are: * Effortless Dynamics * HUGE soundstage * Ability to play ANY kind of music with authorityCertainly, as Oneobgyn and Siliab... | |
| Mini Monitors - Dynaudio and JM Labs Aktchi - Can you please refer me to a reputable source explaining this phenominom?Also - For clarity, the "original" dispute was whether or not a tweeter claiming 40khz has "higher extension" than a tweeter claiming 25khz. Your point that "Take yo... | |
| Do I want a sub with VR-4jr's? "I think that the gain will be a small one"I would disagree here. Do this right, and the performance gain will be monumental. You switch cables, and you say "do I hear something different? i dont know" so you change them back and forth and can't p... | |
| Do they make Speakers For Rap/Rock Tacmc5 - A lot of the responses here are from people who are clearly close-minded about music, and really don't know what they're talking about.To answer your question - Yes, definitely, many high-end speakers and other components are GREAT for ra... | |
| Do I want a sub with VR-4jr's? Yeah, you want a sub. You've gotta have that foundation if you want to be a true playa. Rel is the most musical, but velodyne DD is close and the built in EQ, TV graph hookup, mic, remote control, etc makes it the clear winner in this arena. On my... | |
| b&w 803 or vr4jr, best match How can you even compare these two speakers? What do you like better... kevelar ringing in your ear and a hot metal tweeter shouting at you, or.... | |
| Upgrading? Sophia/Dynaudio/Revel/Genesis 6.1 ? Cdj123 - The one thing that I would keep in mind is that the frequency response things that you heard are more likely a product of the room's acoustics than the speaker. Making a freq. response speaker judgement, and then moving the speakers to a ... | |
| Connecting I-pod to Integrated Amplifiers Mapleleafs3 - You clearly have no idea what you're talking about.I would be surprised if you could tell the difference between an ipod's line out playing apple lossless files and any <= $500 cd playerHave you ever even listened to an ipod hooke... | |
| Amateur inherited an audio system... Raycc - I live in the boston area, let me know if you're interested in getting any help getting the new stereo to sound its best. Email me at hifitodd@gmail.com | |
| Connecting I-pod to Integrated Amplifiers Make sure to connect to the dock (line out) as opposed to using the headphone out on the ipod. That way, you will be bypassing the Ipod's internal amplifier, and using your own amplifier instead. Plug the cable that the big nerd is talking about i... |
