I believe it is a good move to offer a cheaper entry box for Roon. The price seems Okish, depending on the uplift for Europe. I run Roon on a dedicated 250€ fanless Windows box. It runs fine. But now and then Win11 wants to update itself and even the Pro version does that eventually and then the...
In the meantime you could power down the NAd, first with the front switch and after 10 sec with the switch at the back and start again. It will rescan the HDMI ports.
I read posts like this and hold my breath. My NAD T778 has been performing absolutely flawless for 2 years now. Not even fan noise. And I am using all internal amps. I keep my fingers crossed.
There is more to that. Once you listened to a poor bass heavy sound at home, people believe that the 200-500 hz resonance is a good bass response. Sadly they do not hear that in a concert or with a properly corrected home system. So they crank up the bass. And so it goes…
You could upgrade to an Apple TV that will output everything as linear PCM via HDMI. You then could try and find an Oppo 103 (or better) that decodes that HDMI into analog channels which you could feed into your receiver. That may sound complicated but will sound good, plus you have a blurray...
A+ for Dirac full range on a Nad T778.
Sure, at first I am missing this thick bass - which were just room modes that made me think I had a good bass reproduction. Above 500 kHz live and death is the room curve. Trying to make the system flat by believing high frequencies should reach the ear at...
Many thanks. I am thinking of a small jazz venue for 60 people with a size of around 200 Sqm. So it is not too far out from a 60 sqm living room.
And while dynamics could be overcome, the comment about double-room is great.
And that seems to be the problem.
And yes, sometimes an over...
I confess that I do not understand why one can not match a loudspeaker room response to a concert sound: Record an non-amplified Jazz sextet (incl. horn and reed) in a small concert hall und “fit” the house curve to that envelope. That will need more than two speaker, but will 11 speaker...
I believe the message is: Do not over-engineer your system. Good speaker and a bass and treble control is enough. And bass and treble is like salt in a restaurant’s table: Despised by gourmets but needed by others and as a restaurant should care for all customers so should vendors.
The trouble...
This is my favorite curve system too. However, I can not get my head around the trained-nontrained listener label. So everybody who wants more bass and treble is un-trained. Like somebody putting too much ketchup on his burger is „untrained“. So there is a trained elite who separates their...
In the same way as bypassing the computer stuff gives you a cleaner videostream without that snow on the screen. And in Word the text can read much better.
You mean paying development upfront and hoping that users buy in? Better: charge an annual maintenance fee and provide updates und new functions yearly.
