    Bluesound Powernode Streaming Amplifier Review

    Hey, you have the right to your totally subjective experience and beliefs, but that doesn't mean anybody has to believe you. This just has a lot of distortion and costs a lot of money for what you get. SINAD in the 70s with lots of distortion? I think that will make the music feel muddy...

    SMSL VMV A1 Pro Stereo/Mono Amplifier Review

    Also, they stopped making drivers for it, and I think it does need drivers.

    Look upon these measurements, ye mighty, and despair: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/smsl-q5-pro-dac-and-stereo-amplifier-review.10719/

    SMSL VMV A1 Pro Stereo/Mono Amplifier Review

    SMSL has good, bad, and ugly. I own one of the ugly, which I bought years ago. Don't buy anything of theirs without measurements.

    JBL 705P Studio Monitor Review

    They sound great to me at that distance. Probably a bit better from a bit further away.

    GRIMM Audio LS1c & SB1 DSP Speaker Review

    I'd take the Genelec and go 5 speakers for the $$$ :)

    GRIMM Audio LS1c & SB1 DSP Speaker Review

    I should add that a great way to tell is to put in filters on the sub, which is easy with certain SVS subs and the app. If I put a 24db filter to cut 40 hz down, I notice a difference in a lot of music. At 60hz it's a big difference. At 80hz it's a huge difference in pretty much everything...

    GRIMM Audio LS1c & SB1 DSP Speaker Review

    I know that most piano pieces don't use the lowest note, but the point stands that there is potential information, and often information, in the low end of bass for all genres. At least that's what my spectrum reader says.

    I know poorer people with Mercedes and richer people with Jeeps. The most expensive audio systems I see are not stereos. They are theater installations.

    GRIMM Audio LS1c & SB1 DSP Speaker Review

    Bass extension is vital to me. Every digital music recording that I've checked has significant information down to 20hz across several genres. Even pianos go to 27.5hz. I just find their subs to be unacceptable. I suppose if you could control eight of them it would be fine.

    GRIMM Audio LS1c & SB1 DSP Speaker Review

    If it played loud enough and low enough, it would not be so distorted at low frequencies, and not drop off so much. Even as the room raises the bass, there will still be all that distortion. I find it completely unacceptable. The speakers are magnificent, sure, but again, stupidly overpriced...

    GRIMM Audio LS1c & SB1 DSP Speaker Review

    If you're paying car prices for speakers, you want them to get it right all the way to 15 hz. YOu don't want to have to do it yourself.

    GRIMM Audio LS1c & SB1 DSP Speaker Review

    The performance below 100 hz, in volume and in distortion, kills otherwise perfect speakers. Triple the volume of that sub, port, and then match them, and you'll have appropriate performance. Even then, it will be overpriced, but at least it will be perfect.
