| Preamp modifications - who would you use? 01-23-11: Mitch2Tvad, no I am not modding the Lamm.Thanks for the update.BTW - I have conversed with another Lamm owner who has performed significant mods to his LL2 (caps, attenuators, diodes) and he says it is now comparable with anything out th... | |
| Preamp modifications - who would you use? 01-23-11: TreljaActually, I also agree with Grant. Didn't know the component that was under discussion - I don't know that is is, I just saw it listed in the OP's system. He hasn't verified if the Lamm LL2 Deluxe is the preamp under consideration ... | |
| Preamp modifications - who would you use? If you're asking about the Lamm LL2 Deluxe listed in your system description, I'd leave it alone. It's a classic preamp, and modifying it will alter its wonderful sound and destroy its resale value. | |
| Why the obsession with the lowest octave 01-21-11: MapmanI would propose that it is possible the impact could be less sitting closer if sitting on a more rigid floor or foundation. Its possible that being higher up and further away yet in an elevated balcony transmitted some of that bass... | |
| Why the obsession with the lowest octave Sitting at Dress Circle balcony level in Carnegie Hall, I felt the visceral impact of the tympanis when struck to the greatest degree I recall at recent live concert events.Mapman (System | Reviews | Threads | Answers | This Thread)Understood. Car... | |
| Halide Bridge vs hiFace Evo vs Sonicweld 192 I also tried the hiFace Evo. It wouldn't work. Set up is simple enough on OS X. It showed under Sound>Output once the driver was installed, but the sound only came out the built in speakers.Sakahara (System | Threads | Answers | This Thread)I'm... | |
| Best high-efficiency speaker under 10K I heard the Vaughn Cabernet and a featured Coincident model (not sure it was the Reference Extreme) at RMAF 2009. Completely different presentation, IMO.The Coincident was more incisive and accurate for lack of a better word. I recall the Vaughn b... | |
| SPDIF converter for Audio Note Dac 2.1 01-20-11: Ladavidthanks guys - I think you are right on this - haven't been able to get hiface to play with pure music. Have tried for hours but probably need to give it more effort.I had the same problem. In my case, it turned out not to be an is... | |
| Why the obsession with the lowest octave Sit mid hall or balcony and you won't experience the visceral impact of low bass.Sit up front, and you'll have a different experience.It depends on one's experiences and preference.I like the visceral impact of low bass: that can't be heard but ca... | |
| SPDIF converter for Audio Note Dac 2.1 4est, I am not incorrect. There is a language barrier preventing effective communication.Bottom line, Ladavid, the HiFace is not the problem with the sound of your system. Configure it properly with Pure Music and you should be in good shape. | |
| SPDIF converter for Audio Note Dac 2.1 The M2Tech HiFace is a very good converter. In my system, using it with a Mac Mini/Pure Music into a Modwright Transporter (as a DAC), the resulting sound is as high fidelity as my Esoteric UX-3Pi.That yours sounds "am radio like" indicates a poss... | |
| Pc to DAC Configuration Thanks, Bryoncunningham. I looked at your system , but didn't see the DAC listed (probably missed it). What DAC are you using with the Mac? | |
| Pc to DAC Configuration 01-16-11: Bryoncunningham...resulted in lots of jitter, which was plainly audible.How would you describe the sound of this plainly audible jitter? | |
| Best Hobby related purchase of 2010 01-16-11: MacdadtexasAudio note, sweet TVAD.Thank you. Really enjoying them. |
