    CES 2017: Piega Speakers

    Sealed spks have limited bass extension, due to the closed box. Ported enclosures allow deeper bass to be produced; however at the expense of control & w/possible chuffing. Radiators are the best of both worlds; getting some of the control of a sealed design w/some of the additional output of a...

    Watches! What do y'all have on your wrists?

    The Bulova 23 "USA 1956": just like me! B-day gift to myself this year. Don't like numerals nor date on dial; not even second hands [didn't find a '56 w/o; though at least it doesn't have a separate dial for seconds either]. Sunburst dial was a bonus. Luminous hands no longer glow... just like...

    Review and Measurements of Lyngdorf RoomPerfect EQ

    Bump: Struggling w/Part 1 & Part 2 adding up to a recommendation too!! "The Lyngdorf TDAI-3400 makes a ton of sense and causes you to forget the issues I found in measurements of its electronics." Well aware Room Correction can address Bass, Mids, & Highs; would like clarification...

    Datasat LS10 AV Processor Review

    + Clarifying: Only two channel sources would go to the DAC & only two channel sources available [duh] to the digital output of the universal player would be accessed. Would send all multichannel sources directly to the pre/pro [digitally]. #OfCourse

    Datasat LS10 AV Processor Review

    General: Comments have gone off the specific unit reviewed [thanks amirm] & into the SQ [+ value] of A/V preamps. Here's my solution [attack at will]: universal player [w/best video possible] coaxial digital output to 2 channel DAC. XLR from a balanced DAC to the pre/pro. Therefore bypassing...

    Anthem to introduce new models!

    If by "idling amps" you mean unused channels of amplification, no. However not using every amplified channel allows for the powered channels to perform w/more power. In the case of the 510: 100 W per channel w/2 channels driven & 75 W per channel w/5 channels driven...

    Anthem to introduce new models!

    Not just an "additional 2 subs out"; as now the processor has Auto Subwoofer Phase Adjustments [ARC Genesis] & Auto Subwoofer Polarity Adjustments [ARC Genesis] for each of the four sub outs. The BIG reveal is: "AVM 90 Specifications Coming soon" what a joke! What about balanced audio inputs...

    Review and Measurements of Essence HDACC II-4K HDMI DAC

    Personal: Thanks for contributing to the thread. Haven't read all 6 pgs; lots of 'stuff'! Would like to go HDMI Audio Only [not actually/just black vid] out from Blu-ray player to HDMI in on the HDACC II-4K. Is the unit capable of stripping out the video signal completely? Then HiRez Audio...
