Welcome! One of the first things I would do is drop over and tour the factory at YG in Arvada, probably about 10 minutes away from you. They have an amazing room, and Gary Mulder is one of the good guys in audio. Then travel up to Louisville and...
So my wife and I got tired of Chicago and moved to a home in the mountains outside of Denver (Golden). Any members reside out this way? Would love to get in touch and get to know some fellow Coloradans! My first project is to build a music...
At Scott Walker Audio (Anaheim, CA) I heard Rockport Atria IIs driven by McIntosh Mc611 mono power amplifiers. I also heard those amplifiers driving Magico A5s. The Aria/McIntosh combination was simply fabulous. The Magico/McIntosh combination was...
Has anyone done a comparison of the T3 to the T2 in terms of announced specifications and features? The T3 is priced at about $5,350, which is quite an increase over the T2's $4,500.
That's the nice thing about this... Nothing is set in stone, so everything can be adjusted, added or removed to get to the desired result.
I agree with you. I don't know why GIK refers to the 4" 2D Alpha's as bass traps since like you said,...
I don’t agree since the Alpha 2D’s work optimally at 500hz (not sure how that’s “bass” in their definition). But at least, as you said, you can move them if they don’t work out well. I think you’ll find a midrange suck out and find you have to...
The english translation of the whole experiment is here:
Megatest speaker cables - real measurements, samples and blind test! - Alpha Audio NET
I thought it was pretty interesting.
I wanted to revisit this again...
After re-reviewing my email from GIK as well as reading in a few forum posts from Maggie owners (with similar sized rooms), we have all been recommended to use the 4" Alpha 2D panels on the front wall directly...
Thanks for the info, NekoAudio and dznuts.
Like others have said, I'm also not in a rush to replace my T2. (It will be nice if I ever get the replacement board, which has been in the works since February.....)
Got my copy of Jazz Sabbath Volume 2 a few weeks ago. It's been spun several times but not enough. Volume 2 doesn't quite have the same drive and pizazz as the first one. It's barely 41 minutes long and certainly could be longer. I don't know about...
If you connect the T2 to the Arnthem via analog cable does it still go through the DAC in the Anthem? If it doesn't, and remains analog through the Anthem and out to the amp, then that might explain why it sounds better? If the T2 goes digital in to...
Eric just picked up the DarTZeel line after a discussion with Jonathan of Blue Light Audio, the US distributor of DarTZeel about the history of the one I bought. As to Aries Cerat he was selected by Robert of Worldwide Wholesale USA, the Aries...
When I had two separate systems using the same speakers, one stereo and the other HT, I had 2 sets of cables with bananas on the speakers end and just swapped out to which system I was going to use.
That’s interesting thanks for the feedback. I wonder what the improvement would be T2 direct to 760a with leedh processing on in the menu for volume control before the calibration for comparison. I’ve seen that more often but with a Lumin X1.
You're asking if people prefer using the digital coaxial S/PDIF output or the analog XLR or RCA outputs from the Lumin T2?
Respectfully, those two configurations are not equivalent alternatives, regardless of which cables you may be using. If you...
this about sum things up perfectly.
wonder what the path is forward for MOFI? ...fortunately, i only have two titles but will never purchase another one. obviously, others feel the same.
I recently upgraded my system based around an Anthem AVM90 processor. Previously I was using a Nordost Red Dawn analog cable with my Anthem 1120. With the AVM 90 I tried a good coaxial cable my dealer brought over when he installed my AVM 90 and the...
Use proper preamp for stereo / hi-fi. Don't use Anthem pre-pro - especially with ARC. Leave it for HT usage only.
You can put the best amp in the world and it will still sound mediocre - without good front end.
So far not blown away. It has more power than 330A, I would say that the surround and Atmos bubble effect is better, but I don't hear much difference in music as of now. I stream Qobuz and use Lumin T2. The 720A came after my other equipment and...
