Hello boys and girls, I just wanted to say farewell to those who I had a good moment with. The music career is re-starting fast, and I completely lack time to check into forums to discuss about hifi lately. And it will not become better if I see the upcoming tour dates. *biggrin* Also, I will...

"whats more important , speakers or amp ???"With feedback and experience. Speakers and Room are the most important factors. Amps simply need to have correct power reserves for pushing the speakers correctly. Few examples :Complete Accuphase chain with two power blocks on B&W 802D2 -> Good sound...

"I'm totally at a loss here." Congratulation. You've discovered psycho-accustic bias, and, in the same time, discovered that there is no major difference between amplifiers in term of sound quality. The two amplifiers are probably absolutely identical in their ability to render music. Only...

As always. Gazzip is always present for defending lost causes. The most funny, he's not even possessing a neutral room for testing the things out he claims to have experienced. A total fraud of a good adviser in hifi. The most funny : for reaching his goal of a neutral room, he needed a machine...

Whatever. Not very different from their regular speakers.

ATC SCM50's are existing in standmount version. So does numerous other, very authority capable spekers (PSI, Quested, and so on...). On the other side, you could have floorstanders setted up to cut at 60hz +/- 3dB. Especially on lots of floorstanders of today, I have the impression that the...

This method probably offers a higher volume at the end. This is often the reason why peoples hear "improvements". But it could although be that your phono cable wasn't adapted to line level work. Difficult to say without beeing on site.

"Since getting the system about 18 months ago I just haven't been that blown away by the sound. Even playing CD's doesn't seem to provide a full open sound. My question is would I benefit from getting a DAC to connect my laptop to and feed into the amp. I would use it to connect the CD player...

At a certain point, it was in to have Mosfets based amps. Then, not too long ago, it was the golden age of bipolar. Everything needed to be that. Now, we unpack the mosfets again. Both made sound, and both can be ruined in attrocious engineer designs, or run perfectly in perfectly well...

As I connected the first time to this forum. I remember that I was impressed by the flood of cookies and functions running in the background. Basically, this forum is a nuclear powerplant waiting for his meltdown.

I'm from those peoples, that gained experience little by little. More and more. By trying, compairing, and try to understand the logic behind the things I tryed to understand. And the more I gained experience, the less I was focused about the "sound of amplifiers". As already written in this...
