Not necessarily a shameless plug. I'm writing this album now going after a certain 80's pop sound. It's been turning out not sounding like anything I know. I'm mostly happy with it but I really don't know if it belongs to a genre. I'm pursuing a balance between something with commercial...

Yes. I can send a separate mono mix to the out. I have a pair of HS50M speakers in an untreated room, I use them at very low volume and sporadically. So I started recently a trial with the Audeze LCD-X headphones, in which I can return it if I don't think is worth the money. Regarding the...

Sorry to disappoint you but the Auratone is fine. ;)

Sorry, I cant catch your sentence. And what does "GG" mean btw?

Yes, my friend. I cant keep being ignorant like this anymore, I want to follow this stuff and I've started getting my math together from the fundamentals today, it's actually pretty fun and liberating. Do you mean 250W BTL meaning "Bridge-Tied Load"? i.e.: 250W in bridge/mono mode is overkill...

An update: @AnalogSteph you were finding something odd right? So after reading and responding to your last post, I could manage to reach a friend of mine. I took the Auratone to him and he ran a sine wave around the frequency spectrum through my cube and everything sounded alright. It turns...

Thank you so much. Both channels fluctuate. Channel B keeps fluctuating from 24.5mV to 11.9mV and Channel A from 1mV to 6.2mV. What does that tell you? I push the dustcap and it moves "normally" I believe. (I couldnt tell whether what I'm measuring is DC or AC resistance by reading my...

I'll check the dc voltage. What happened is, the amp's knob was at max power, and I was thinking it was at zero. Turned the amp on, played a track and the Auratone played at very low volume due to the audio interface knob being low. It just took about 5 seconds and the sound slowly faded away...

I forgot to show my appreciation for your time to reply to this thread. I'm sorry about that.

Nevermind my friends. I've just blew my brand new auratone now. the amp was with the knobs at max power when I turned on and i didn't check that. Now it's over. It's impossible to not hate myself now

I've just got a Yamaha P2080. 250w at 8ohms mono it seems. I hope it will be okay. So what about cable connections? I make all my cables at home btw... XLR, TR, TRS, RCA, but I have no experience with cables for passive speakers. What material of cable and gauge are preferable? Are those...

I see. Thank you @pozz @Blumlein 88

Hi there, I have another newbie question. I'm not sure if this is the right place. And if this topic was covered before would you pls direct me to there cuz I havent found any thread from you guys about this here, so I'd like to ask for some direction. I've just got an Auratone 5C Super Sound...

Deal! Thank you so much for the clarification my friends.

I'm not sure how power hungry the LCD-X is as I still don't know what to look for in the specs: https://www.audeze.com/products/lcd-x Since there's a 2 month pre-order waiting, I think I'll go on and get the A90. I'm glad that you own the 1st gen of the 18i20. So there are 3 options to send...

Sorry, I meant the d50s (not DX3). No need for a DAC at all then. That's really good to know. Would you guys still pick the A90 over the Drop THX AAA 789 for the Audeze LCD-X?

No combos. Topping A90 is probably what I'm going for. I was just thinking about connecting the SPDIF outs of the 18i20 to a DAC like the Topping DX3 Pro and from there to the A90. To see if I can up a bit more the quality for the Audeze LCD-X What do you think?

That's very very good news! And thank you for your patience to explain all that :) My interface has 2 SPDIF outs and DACs have always one input connector, (coax, optical, etc..) which cable exactly should I use between the interface's 2 SPDIF outs and the DAC input?

Thanks to a member from another forum I found this article from this very Forum: https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads%2Ffocusrite-18i20-dac-measurements.2128%2F&fbclid=IwAR1Go6L_Oh2_aW8TfgzlXomR8foTec8bA_q_7bToduUF5qId75GN2tCMqqA It seems the 18i20 is enough to work...

I'm totally down to that, keep things simple. So from this point, rather than getting a DAC, it'd be better to get a good interface with a good DAC then
