    Anyone own Yamaha NS-SW200 or 300?

    Does anyone own a Yamaha NS-SW200 or 300 as I have a few questions about a used unit I picked up recently. 1. Firstly if I set the auto on feature to LOW, the sub needs a fair amount of volume before it turns on and even then if listening at low volumes it decides to go back into standby after...

    Anthem ARC mic vs phone

    Yes I was using the phone mic and the results were crazy. It set the fronts at 80hz and the centre at 140hz when they are all identical speakers and near the same distance from the measuring point. I will use the supplied mic this weekend to see what results I can get from the setup. I did...

    Anthem ARC mic vs phone

    Appreciate the reply. No not tried it in stereo as I have a separate 2.1 setup for my music needs and this was purely for movies. I will try it with the dedicated mic this weekend to see it things improve.

    Anthem ARC mic vs phone

    I have recently purchased an Anthem MRX710 which is being used with a set of B&W M1 (mk2) and a BK subwoofer. I have tried setting up ARC on the Anthem using the app and my iPhone but still find the sound a little too bright especially compared with the Denon it replaced. Would it be better...

    Question QED Silver Special 25th Anniversary cable

    Does anyone happen to know the difference between QED Silver special 25th anniversary speaker cable and silver anniversary XT? I’m guessing it’s that the 25th anniversary doesn’t have the x tube running through it but I can’t find anything about it online. Any info would be appreciated.

    Dacmagic 100 with CD63ki?

    Thanks for your reply. I currently use my cd63ki more then any other source so thought it would be a bonus if the dac could improve on that. I think your right in suggesting there may be very little in it if anything. I will speak to RS and see if they will allow me to demo it. Failing that I...

    Dacmagic 100 with CD63ki?

    I have been looking at getting a dac to use between my apple TV and my marantz amp. I have considered just getting a CYP dac for £40 - £50 but quite like the look of the dacmagic 100 which I can get for £150. I was also considering running my marantz cd63ki through the dacmagic. Is this likely...

    Tannoy DC6 vs DC6T

    I popped into my local Richer Sounds and had a quick demo of the DC6T. I found them to be excellent for the current £400 they are selling for but thought the bass was a little lacking considering they are 3 times the size of the bookshelf DC6 and have an additional dedicated bass driver. It was...

    Tannoy DC6 vs DC6T

    A few weeks ago I purchased a pair of Tannoy DC6 bookshelf speakers and have been suprisingly happy with them. I still cant decide if I prefer them to the RX1 or not. I paid £200 but could get the DC6T floorstanders for £400. Has anyone heard both? and are the floorstanders worth twice as much...

    Straws in bass port......

    Ok this may sound weird but having read a few posts about how drinking straws can be used as bungs for bass ports I decided to try this on my RX1's. I got drinking straws, taped a whole load together and cut them so they were about 5 inches long, popped them into the bass ports making sure they...

    Tannoy DC6 running in?

    Although I have only recently upgraded to the Monitor Audio RX1's I have been a little disappointed with how they produce bass when being close to a wall which in my situation is a must. I managed to get some Tannoy DC6's from RS as they had them reduced to £200 and thought I would try them. I...

    Do all speakers suffer from port noise?

    http://open.spotify.com/track/0xwWgANkivEPqyPBiYXbzi That's the track I am referring to. The bass drop comes in at just after 3:40 I think Vladimir posted the link to a different track on the same album. Mo
