My biggest lightbulb moment was finding and fixing a huge bass null. This happened in my first attempt at a full home theater, a freshly renovated room with a 9.2 Atmos configuration. My subs were built in to the towers (Goldenear Triton Ones) and it all looked perfect, but the bass at the main...
Not my go to, and not a genre I listen to often, but I was surprised at how good Judy Garland's "Judy at Carnegie Hall" sounds. Impressive for a 1951 recording.
This will work great - and the company has several different configs, like 2 into 1, 4 into 2. Because it's passive, you can go either direction. I'm using one to alternate the signal to my amps between my Oppo (used for 5.1 and HT) and my Topping Pre90 preamp (used with a turntable). Works like...
I rip CDs because I'm a compulsive, obsessive music hoarder and completist who masochistically enjoys being tormented by the thought that my naming and tagging schema will not make sense to my heirs after I die, unless I get them just right. In other words, the normal reasons.
Someone needs to give some love to the big guns! It's true that standmounts with subs will give you more flexibility to achieve smooth bass frequencies by moving your one or two subs to the optimal location(s), totally indepenent of the mains, and then using room correction if necessary. (IMO...
It's really quite an amazing piece of tech. Here eight years (?) after it was discontinued, it remains a Unicorn, able to multichannel DAC, play high-res discs, and stream stereo and multichannel with nearly the best of the best in each of those categories, not to mention being a fantastic...
This works for me with my LS60s. I always listen through Roon and set their EQ (when I used it, which is not always). My wife prefers Spotify but also doesn't give a damn about room correction.
Thanks for this response - the speaker looks fantastic to me, and the review seems to quibble over details that actually show what an amazing piece of audio engineering it is. I would love a sealed enclosure with this much bass at moderate SPL.
I'd go in three steps.
Start with something that has a general form factor similar (in size) to much less expensive systems, to drive home the point that well-made equipment can look somewhat familiar but then blow you away. Something like the Dutch & Dutch to showcase actives, or going with...
Agreed. I love my LS60s. I bought them after a big move that got me fed up with lugging all my equipment around. The LS60s are now our primary stereo set up. They sound tremendous (albeit I never listen much north of 88-90 dBs tops), and they have plenty of bass. One measure of their greatness...
