| what is the best sub amp. kirk, many folks use that crown in home systems. i think you would have to spend an awful lot of money on a krell to get the same performance as the crown macro-reference, for the use you're proposing...doug s. | |
| Monitors vs Full Range i pretty-much agree w/what everyone's said here. that's why i think even nilthepill's set-up could be improved w/a pair of great subs flanking his "monitors"! :>)doug s. | |
| Hi-Fi and Pro equip. like Mackie, Stewart or JBL not all pro-audio equipment sounds bad. wayne of boldercables.com, is pleased w/his qsc audio amp - read it about it on the qsc forum on harmonicdiscord.com. i'm considering a pair to use w/my subwoofers. also, the art di/o dac is a pro audio unit... | |
| Monitors vs Full Range better imaging, & soundstaging - especially that holographic disappearing-speaker effect is usually possible w/monitors. if the bass isn't good enuff, use subs - i like 'em a lot, w/subwoofers. but, i like subwoofers - i even ran my full-range... | |
| regular vinyl pressings psychic, give dave a break - he got into this audiophile-thing not too long ago; w/guys like us here on a-gon, he's picking up many tips on being a cheapskate! ;~) now, both you *and* david need to invest about $300 into a modded di/o dac & en... | |
| regular vinyl pressings yup, agreed - about the same vintage as the 1200! ;~) but, updated to mk-v specs w/an origin-live dc motor kit, & o-l modded rega (there, i said it!) tonearm, i bet mine sounds better! nyah, nyah! ;~)regards, doug s. | |
| regular vinyl pressings hi psychic, i know ya like yer 1200, & i, too, have heard one set up properly - it *is* a nice 'table... but, i'm not ready to part w/my oracle - it yust *looks* too cool! ;~)doug s. | |
| Suggestions of Excellent Hawaiian music? i was recently introduced to hawaiian music w/this great compilation: hawaiian slack key masters, vol. 2. it's available here:http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00000JJMW/qid=1011417563/sr=1-2/ref=sr_1_14_2/103-1137379-7998220the sonics are s... | |
| VMPS RM-40 - Anyone Heard as owner & lover of vmps larger subs, i am also interested in the rm-40's. as there's a dealer w/them here in my area (dc), i hope to arrange an audition soon. i had actually emailed the dealer before the ces; he has just gotten back to me... ... | |
| what is the best sub amp. brian cheney of vmps, (who makes *killer* subs, imo), uses qsc amps for his low-end... i'd like to get a pair, they're not really *that* expensive, but it may be cheaper for me to have stan warren mod my adcom gfa555's, which aren't too shabby in ... | |
| Monoblock disadvantage or...? i believe Seandtaylor99 has the best advice. i doubt it's a ground loop issue, or you would easily be able to hear it from the listening position, possibly even the next room... ;~)doug s. | |
| Hall of Shame vdub, i *have* to laugh!!! this *exact* thing happened to me just yesterday! *EXACTLY* the way ya describe it! :>) i was pumping gas, when this van pulls up; two guys lean out & say "we just finished this job & have some speakers left o... | |
| Hall of Shame makersmark & killerpiggie, twas *i* who mentioned the art d/io (yup, that's "io", not "10" - it stands for in-out, as the device is actually an adc as well as dac.) as a matter of fact, i even posted a thread about it, where more info can be h... | |
| Hall of Shame makersmark, i think you're *close* w/your comment about cd-players, but i'd up the ante to, say $200, mebbe a bit more if ya want a cd *changer*... of course, this is only accurate if you're using a modded art d/io dac, which will set you back $30... | |
| vmps, art d/io, & boldercables.com hi bob, i in no way meant to slight your product or your efforts - i'd love to hear the blowtorch. preamps & amps (especially preamps, imo), are items that *can* be made to sound great w/lotsa time & money thrown at them... of course, it's... |
