I've been using the 1961 bookshelves for the last month and a half and think they're great. Nice detail without any listening fatigue. The build quality is excellent too with a really solid cabinet. They're sitting on a pair of diy bass modules and were easy to integrate.
Maybe consider Rubio Monocoat. I used it on a quarter sawn white oak bath vanity and it really did a nice job of highlighting the figuring. It's also really user friendly and can easily be repaired. It's a linsead oil wax type finish.
My bad. I misread his response and thought he had in fact decided not to buy and was passing the info to you. Thanks for pointing it out. I missed out on a used pair the other day for $650.00 and thought that was a smokin deal. They sold immediately.
Hey is there a chance you can see if they have another pair at that price or maybe pass the information my way after you purchase? It would be greatly appreciated. That's a great price.
The Mini Dsp and Emotiva's arrived and with help from a friend and a lower cabinet with 2 6" drivers on loan from the same person i've got things up and running.
I received the 2X4 hd and the Emotiva's and have two lower bass cabinets that have been loaned to me by a friend. The system is up...
I changed my mind and decided to go with the Emotiva B1+ for slightly more money and brand new. They seem to review and measure a bit better as well. also, the 2X4HD is on the way. I still haven't made the woofer selection and for now will play around with an existing lower cabinet with two...
Thanks for the replies to my question and i will say that i wasn't as clear as i should have been with my post. When i said that i value bass quality over extension i meant that i don't need them to play flat down to 20 hz. It seems like most of the speakers that i would be interested in if i...
Hello. I've been lurking on this site for quite some time and now could use a little help with driver selection for a project. I have access to a pair of Elac Db62-bk-2.0 new in the box for non much money and would like to use them for a speaker project. I'm looking to build a pair of almost...
All of the streaming services that i have used have a feature that makes the level of all songs equal. It sounds like that's what replay gain does.
My room is probably 400 sq ft with 8ft ceilings and openings to a hallway and other rooms.
The speakers are rated at around 89db efficiency if i...
please disregard my last post. i was trying to do it by just touching the leads to the jacks on the back of the dac. i finally decided to use an actual rca cable and touch the meter leads to that and now i'm getting more like 1.9v.
with a 0-10db 400hz tone i get .63v at the rca's and 13.65 at...
i picked up a meter that has auto range. depending on which 0 db file i use i get anywhere between 2.1 and 2.5v. does it seem right that it would actually put out more than 2v/
It's never been modded. I bought it from someone that i know who is the original owner and did nothing but use it. I'm going to pick up my friend meter which has auto ranging and a setting for 2v ac. Hopefully I'll have answers sometime this weekend.
