| Low amount of buzz okay? Ground hum is another possibility that may be worth looking into. | |
| Pass First Watt J2 vs F3 J2 I haven't heard but I have heard most of the other FirstWatt models (and the S-30 which I also really love). Of the FirstWatts my faves were the F2J and F3. I'd recommend getting on the phone with a FirstWatt dealer. Both Mark at Reno HiFi and ... | |
| Is it save to convert XLR to RCA? Assuming you get the correct adaptor, while you will have no benefit going from balanced to RCA, it shouldn't be worse than RCA-RCA.Also, if you go with an RCA splitter, I would go with a one-piece metal splitter, rather than a Y-cable. | |
| New 'Vinyl Flat' flattener? Give Vinyl Flat a call. I had a question about their product and they were super helpful. Probably get farthe doing that than talking to us bozos. | |
| Upscaling Speakers, Downscaling Amp...What to Do? Well, you have a lot of fantastic options at that price point. I just wanted to butt in and say that I have just done the same thing at much lower price points. And even going to a sub $500 amp in order to upgrade speakers made a great improvement... | |
| Anyone HEARD the qol 'signal completion' device? Or it will work in your system and sound great. Hifigeek1, have you tried it and are you basing your opinion on actual experience? I haven't tried it, but do feel strongly feel we should give the basis for our opinions here. Give a product and the... | |
| In Search of a Passive Subwoofer Amplifier Scott,Are you here in Chicago or just your sub builder? Shoot me an email if you are local (if you can't do that thru A'gon I use the same user name on AudioCircle & AudioAsylum) | |
| In Search of a Passive Subwoofer Amplifier What is the impedance of your subs and what kind of power do you need? I use a pair of Emotiva BPA-1s, each bridged for my two dual NHT SW2 subs. If you want more conamtrol for fine tuning, maybe grab something like an NHT X2. | |
| How many enjoy low $ second system sound? I have really enjoyed the bedroom system I have put together with some HornShoppe Horns and a MiniWatt amp. Really nice combo and the advantage of the single driver design of the Hornshoppe is that it sounds quite nice and still reveals a good dea... | |
| configure amp 4 or 8 ohm to drive 6 ohm speakers If you already have the amp and speakers, just try it out and see what works best for your speakers and your taste in music. Not sure if you have a frequency vs. impedance graph or not, but if you have one and see a big dip in impedance, I might g... | |
| First subwoofer for a newbie. Sound and Vision Magazine also has loads of subwoofer reviews and they take measurements as well. More up to date than the excellent hometheatershack measurements. Those are where I go to research subs. And from that research, the newer SVS models... | |
| Dynavector XX-2 vs. Airt Tight PC 3 No experience that can make a comparison, but just got back a SoundSmith rebuilt XX-2 and installed it on my Amadeus. A great combination for sure. That much I can attest to, but it must be admitted that I have not had other high dollar carts inst... | |
| Looking to get back into Vinyl. Wow a revival of a 2010 thread. At this point in time, I'd suggest a Well Tempered Simplex (or Amadeus if you can squeeze it). For phono stage look into a Jasmine. Cart? Well that will be too much dependent on user taste. | |
| best chinese tube amp under $1k? The MiniWatt amp remains a steal if your speakers are efficient enough. | |
| Is an amp the next upgrade path for me? Advice... In line with the dream integrated you mentioned, Wyred4Sound has a new integrated that includes a DAC. The mINT (mini-integrated). 100W into 8 ohms. Not familiar with your speakers so not sure if that would be enough power for you. |
