| Aurender vs. Roon In case anyone is interested, I was able to integrate Sonos connects without issue after messing with for a couple of days. In short, connects should run wireless and not share the same router (wired) as the Rock. I am not sure why that is, but... | |
| Aurender vs. Roon I had an old NUC around I hadn't been using - about a year ago I bought a Macbook Pro and the need for a windows based system is no longer needed. Today I updated the BIOS, formatted the drive and made the NUC into a Room Rock. I have the Room R... | |
| Best bookshelf speakers I think you should throw as much money at the speaker you feasibly can to prevent the immediate upgrade bug. Selling speakers are a pain and I consider speakers furniture/art. Depending on your room it is one of the 1st items people see. My mai... | |
| Duelund internal speaker wire? I have had many recommendations I replace the internal wire in my vintage speakers with Duelund, but have not at this point. I have used Dueland as speaker wire and thought it was very good. So depending on the speaker, I think it could be a good... | |
| Best bookshelf speakers "Tiny companies" that buy drivers from OEM driver manufactures such as Seas and Scanspeak, which are held by larger companies, seam to do just fine in R&D. Not sure if you call Devore 'tiny' but they buy some of their drivers from Seas and the... | |
| Best bookshelf speakers I have green mountain audio monitors on Skyland stands (EOSHX), driven by a oppo 105 and LFD integrated amp. Anyone in the SF/Sacramento area can come by for listen.If they can be found I recommend the Callisto speakers. I have seen them used fo... | |
| Best bookshelf speakers @audiotroy Quad is affiliated with IAG as is Audiolab, Castle Acoustics, Luxman, Mission, Quad and Wharfedale. IAG creates and Quad uses as do all the other brands part of IAG. I am curious how these loudspeakers differ, or a they just the same ... | |
| Gallo Acoustics I had Gallo 3.1s and finally sold them. I didn't have the bass amp, so cannot comment on that feature. I did however experiment with the 15 Ohm resistors tweek found here http://www.10audio.com/gallo_ref3-1.htm.I didn't like the 3.1s because to ... | |
| Cannot find perfect sound regardless of the nuance of your question or post, I believe the rudimentary question remains, "why do I hear this and no one else does, or if they do why doesn't it bother them?"Again, it may not be the everyone else, or speakers if the complain... | |
| Cannot find perfect sound I also hear major resonances from many high end speakers which the reviewers seem to ignore. Even my PMC speakers have horrific resonances. Despite this, they were highly regarded by all the studio engineers.I’d suggest your expectations are not r... | |
| Green Mountain Audio Chroma HX Review @kenjit it is quite common for companies request specific drivers be custom made. You think most speaker companies make their drivers in house? I believe Zu uses Eminence drivers as do several other companies, but I am guessing they are not avai... | |
| Does this image give you claustrophobia? Not sure why - reminds me of a original Star Trek bridge pic. | |
| Speaker recommendation @bigkidz How do Vandersteen speakers sound off axis? I am concerned they only sound great in a specific position and I rarely sit in a specific position. I have been on the edge about Vandersteen Treo, or if the price is right 5s | |
| Green Mountain Audio Chroma HX Review @kenjit I have owned 2 sets of GMA and liked each, still owning GMA EOS HX. I have also owned Gallo 3.1, Celestion, Klipsch Forte 1, Klipsch Chorus 2 and currently own modded Klipsch Cornwalls. My friends have had Zu, Joseph audio and von schweik... | |
| KEF blades 2 or Dynaudio C4? @audiotroy what you say seems accurate, an expert on the products you sell. However, I do not think this is the issue. I surmise a Honda salesman is an expert in Honda’s too. However, you think as a car buyer I walk-in asking said salesman, “Ho... |
