    TOPPING D90 III Sabre DAC Review

    This might be a silly question, but does the LLVDS input take normal HDMI audio? If this were the receiver of an eARC audio signal, would it play? And if so, would that be limited to unencoded audio signals or would dolby atmos work too?

    Topping L30 II Review (Headphone Amp)

    Thank you. I will take a look at the Fosi. Seems like a good upgrade over the SMSL. Honestly at this point I'm tempted to get a Pre90 + LA90 Discrete setup because I know for sure it would work lol.

    Yes! I am referring to the Gen 2s in that post.

    Airpods Pro 2

    I do this. Balanced Tone - moderate is the best setting by far. Turns them from meh to amazing.

    Sennheiser HD800S Review (Headphone)

    I am also looking for a recommendation lol. Seems like the only two options on the market are Apple Airpods Pro/Max with an Apple device or the jvc xp-ext1 (which requires HDMI input like the A16). Ironically Apple seems like the better deal here as you can eventually upgrade when better...

    3D Sound Shop - Custom PRIRs for the Smyth Realiser A16

    Thanks for the response. It's a shame that they don't seem attainable at the moment.

    3D Sound Shop - Custom PRIRs for the Smyth Realiser A16

    Is it possible to play these back (accurately) with anything but an A16? Is there no way to get headtracking working with Hesuvi?

    Topping L30 II Review (Headphone Amp)

    I have a potentially very stupid question. Right now I am paring this as the pre-amp for the SMSL A300 because I needed something to power my rear surround speakers (JBL Stage A130) . The source is the SVS Tri-Band wireless transmitter which only outputs a low 1v. This caused me a huge...

    JBL Stage A130 Review (speaker)

    I have the JBL Studio 230's. I've EQ'd them to be "flat" on both a cheap Sony Receiver and a Yamaha Aventage A4A. In both cases I did not find them to be bright at all. They are very detailed and when placed well and EQ'd I have a tough time finding any problems with them. They are my main L/R...

    Topping L30 II Review (Headphone Amp)

    How useful would this be for a dedicated pre-amp? I've been looking for something with RCA in/out that can give me a 10-20db boost with as little noise or distortion as possible. I've mentioned in a couple other threads that I use the SVS Soundpath Tri-Band wireless for my rear-surrounds and I'm...

    Kef Q650c Center Channel Speaker Review (by Erin)

    I just picked this up. I was happy with a phantom center for personal viewing but I now have family or friends over for movies often and I want to fix the audio for more than one seat. This was the best performing center channel in terms of clarity at 30 degrees I could find for less than $1000...

    New SMSL A300 BTL Class-d Power Amp

    Hello, I have a question about input sensitivity. Right now I am using an SVS Soundpath Tri-Band device (output: 1v) to get wireless rear surrounds from my Yamaha Receiver on RB42s (4-8 Ohms). I'm using my old Sony Receiver which has a rated analog input sensitivity of 500 mV/50 kilohms and a...

    Topping PA5 Review (Amplifier)

    Thanks, that makes a lot of sense. I got an SMSL A300 to power the rears; that should work fine. Thank you. I'll either return the PA5 or find some use for it elsewhere in a balanced setup as it clearly needs it lol.

    Topping PA5 Review (Amplifier)

    Hello, I believe I just did this to myself. I wanted a clean and powerful amp to power RB42's as surround speakers and I'm using an SVS Soundpath Tri-Band to get a wireless connection from my Yamaha receiver. Once I set everything up I noticed that, when calibrating, the rear sound was...
