    Genelec 8030c vs 8351B

    how are they even comparable? 8351 is ~6x more expensive, much more bigger and heavier, can get to 32Hz and reaches is 9dB higher in SPL. They are two different classes. yes active speakers will eventually fail. But only you can decide that the price is worth 10 years of great sound...

    (Europe) Master Deals Thread on Audio Product Sales

    It was likely sent by Amazon, as you get lower tax rate. Amazon can ship from another warehouse in Italy or Spain, or Poland, so it might take longer. If you still have the tracking, you can probably see that. I tried to place order from both .de and .fr and it shows 42.99EUR, even though my...

If you get charged more, they will compensate that to you. However, if it is sent by Amazon, or if sent...

    (Europe) Master Deals Thread on Audio Product Sales

    right. when I clicked on your link it somehow changed the shipper automatically (maybe they select lowest price with shipping ?) if you are from France, yes, select Amazon as "Shipped by" is of course preferable (much faster shipping etc.). but if you are not from France or Germany, and your...

    Advice please on new AVR

    You only need 1 for your PS5. if you need more in the future, consider AVS-3 or other HDMI 2.1 switch you probably want to check out x3800h. if you buy x4700h now it would use the same TI chip as x3800h.

    Just how legit is this person's blind test results?

    - He discloses his test methods/procedures clearly - It has been proven many times that his test results are consistent with measurements from other sources(differences are within margin of errors) - He has no financial interests on those tests - and he discloses any interests (if he received...

    Focal Chora 816 Speaker Review

    where are you? if you are in Europe, Aria 906 + amp would be more "comparable". but still apple vs orange, as Kali one is a nearfield monitor. 906 would suck if it is put close to you (that's @VintageFlanker's words, not mine, but I assume it's true because of the directivity etc.) And I would...

    Focal Chora 816 Speaker Review

    if you are in EU, you're in for a treat. Aria 906 was also reviewed highly by Amir here, and it's significantly cheaper than in US. Good performance + great price (on the perceived value) + made in France are main reasons I bought them. all thanks to ASR.

    Just how legit is this person's blind test results?

    I only see him as hostile in this case. Amir did not "invent" the 85dB threshold himself. he based it on well established researches. and each component has different threshold SINAD for audibility (and Amir did not even invent the term SINAD. he only popularized it, yet subjectivists assumed...

    Apparently many members are interested in cooking, if not talented cooks. Show us your cookware, what brand and what you like about it My favorite pan is a Demeyere Proline. 7 layers, thick and heavy as hell. But the construction is impeccable, so is heat distribution. I assume it would last...

    Just how legit is this person's blind test results?

    I meant in this case it's only the audible threshold of amp. previous researches said 85 dB SINAD (IIRC). if new paper says 90 dB, fine, 90dB it is. of course only if the new paper itself is highly reputable (reputable researchers, reputable journal), not a random test on the internet :)
