    Dan Clark NOIRE X Headphone Review

    Would the Chord Mojo be sufficient to drive the Noire X? I read that Dan Clark himself uses the Chord Mojo 2 with the Noire X while traveling, and the power difference between the Mojo and Mojo 2 appears to be minimal. I’m curious whether the Mojo can drive the Noire X to satisfying levels...

    Marantz AV10 AV Processor Review

    There’s an AV10 thread on AVS Forum with many AV10 owners. I’m sure that’s the best place to ask for these sort of issues as there might be someone else experiencing the same thing. Hopefully the new unit is fine but keep an eye on that thread, pretty useful. Cheers

    Monitor Audio Gold 100 (2019 revision) measurements by SoundStage/NRC

    I wonder if the Gold 200 5G (which I have and is the equivalent of this new model) measures in a similar way. I wouldn’t be surprised considering how it sounds in my room. It’s quite different from the Gold 300 5G, which was also measured by Stereophile and I think has a more pleasant and...

    Excellent CD Masters

    The 2015 Deluxe is not the best. It’s the 2015 DSD download, which sounds different from the deluxe edition. The speed issue only affects the HDAD and it’s a major problem

    Excellent CD Masters

    I used to listen to this version as my go-to for The Turn of a Friendly Card, but I don't think it's the best mastering. It's very dark sounding and it also runs slower than all other versions available. I own all digital versions available to date, and I came to the conclusion that the 2015 DSD...

    New ASR logo proposal

    Great work, @Chagall ! I have a design background and I work as an architect/academic, so I'm glad to see this happening. Your logo proposals are both great, but I prefer version B, where the S for science is more visible. I am always mindful of B/W printing or colour blindness, so version B...

    NAD M28 Seven Channel Power Amplifier Review

    Have a look at the Audioholics measurements of the AMP10. It seems it can run at 100% of the specified power with seven channels driven. I don’t know whether that‘s enough for you, but it works very well for me. I’m using it in combination with the AV10 as my main processor. Overall, built...

    Text to Image AI Generation

    If you are enjoying testing these GenerativeAI platforms, you should try Midjourney and Dall-E2. They are widely used by designers and architects, even though they are mainly able to generate 2D images at this stage, without understanding complex spatial relationships and contexts. Apart from...

    What streaming service do you use?

    I've been using Tidal with a family subscription for the past six years. I generally buy physical or digital copies of the albums I like, but having Tidal is great to be able to sample different masterings of my preferred music before committing to a purchase. It's also great that I can listen...

    Share your in-room measurements?

    I've purchased a new Marantz AV 10 and a licence for MultEQ-X. I've corrected frequencies up to 400Hz for front, centre and surround speakers and 300Hz for in-ceiling speakers. Above these frequencies, I've added parametric EQ to adjust the response of the front and centre speaker (in the range...

    Share your in-room measurements?

    I changed my Audyssey settings to correct the response up to 350Hz, and then stop. These are the results. Most of the room modes, peaks and dips between 20 and 300Hz are corrected. Some are not corrected but the result is so much better than the peaks and dips before Audyssey. The pink/purple...

    Share your in-room measurements?

    I tried to perform these speaker measurements indoors. I only did one measurement on-axis and one at 30 degrees. It was a quick test. I wasn't sure about the position of the mic, so I pointed at the tweeter, at 1m distance, but I think this has impacted the response in the mids (the crossover...

    Share your in-room measurements?

    Thank you. So you mean a cutting shelf filter outside of Audacity. I only have a graphic eq in the receiver outside of that. Or I don’t know how to do it.

    Share your in-room measurements?

    I don't have measurements for my speakers (Monitor Audio Gold 200 5G). I would expect them to be similar to the 300, of which it's possible to find basic measurements at Stereophile. They should be pretty much flat. They are detailed but most likely flat. I can try again stopping at 250Hz or...

    The measurements with Audyssey off are in the background, in grey. I know they are not very visible in the high frequencies, but they are very close to the measurements with Audyssey on. I don't believe there is correction up there.

    This is how they look with 1/48 smoothing. I've only captured 5K to 20K. These were measured with a Umik1, 90 degrees, and associated calibration file.
