Hario V60 pour over most of times, Delonghi Dedica Latte Art for special coffees. Hacendado Colombia limited 2024/2025, local roasters…
Out of the thread, but combine coffee with Matcha tea (ceremonial grade) as alternative caffeine source: it last for longer because of lower bioavailability...
Is difficult to guess what can happened, apart from the voltage difference signaled by @krabapple.
Other possible explanation is some distortions from a bad built D/A converter from previous CD players, which is more probable than in your new DAC.
Should be very tiny anyway, you’ll be quickly...
I went to G Threes, they sound great and are better placed in the range of domestic audio than 8030C
Happy to read MTM works great also, I’m looking for desktop speakers to an office.
Can you connect them digitally by the usb? Or is just for firmware?
Nope, you need the Z8030-408 plate, should buy it appart.
EDITED: I just red your second post, you already found the sad truth… I spent 150€ per floor stand on my set up, same system.
Only thing I can say is the quality is very good, heavy bases and solid plate-isopods link.
7050 is optimized for 80XX series, the crossover matches very well those of 8030c and usually is recommended to go with subs built for the specific speaker.
I agree that Genelec sub are quite expensive given the frequency and SPL, but is not difficult (not so) to find one pre-owned. They are...
Yes, I took into account tweeter-woofer separation but is just in the limit.
I know @Kain is most worried by the SPL and had JBL 7 inch monitors, so he was ok about woofer-tweeter distance.
8341 will be ideal for him but tremendous budget… nevertheless is a good recommendation
I think that because you’re listening louder than average you won’t find any problem with 8340
You will struggle to find a monitor made to be listened at 2.5 feet and with your loudness requirements, don’t bother about Genelec chart in your specific case
EDITED: excuse me, I should write...
Of course! It’s made for that :)
A little bit expensive but if you can afford it is like GLM kit, monitor controller and DAC -amp (you can connect headphones).
Humm, your decision is totally respectable and a good option.
But since @Mort mentioned the 8040 by Genelec, you can also consider this monitors as you’ll save around 400€ and sound phenomenal (not also good FQ but I listened and know many people who have them).
You can save some money for...
It doesn’t worth going to Genelec subs, they are dedicated to studio levels and they don’t excel in SPL: you will expense a kidney in a gigantic subwoofer and I don’t think the result will be so much better.
If you finally go with 8030C I advice you to buy the home version (G Threes) which is...
Absolutely, any decent transient will clip the sub. The monitors can handle about 108 dB as a pair. You can account for some extra decibels due to reflections in the bass region but better ensure you the higher SPL of the JBL.
Be careful with this SPL… you have recommendations about time...
Is my case, living room is 4x5 meters but has some divisions (kitchen bar) that complicate things.
I also thought as a pair of Genelec 7040, because I don’t listen to electronic music and 30 Hz is enough to me.
