    Solar panels

    The only reason to get a solar installation is for the power. So long as your socket is providing ~120v and the needed amps - your device (pre or amp) will filter that power as designed. If you want to avoid power related noise - get a device with good SINAD as measured by a reviewer. Any work...

    Little Big Line Array Build

    Very cool build. Looks awesome. But looks a bit bumpy up top eh? I would assume it isn't really audible though. Congrats!

    What? Why would that be a thing? Every device you own has a filtered power supply...

    Luxsin X9 Smart Stereo DAC & Preamp

    As a cheap bastard - the ONLY thing to complain about this thing - is the price. It's about 2x of what I'd like to see, being a bastard, and cheap. Otherwise - well done! It's a wonderful device to front your system. At this price - I would expect it to be a streaming device as well, though.

    Cheapest tower speaker with an on axis curve flatter than a Revel F35?

    Cheapest? Used Infinity IL40s (like the 60s, less the subwoofer) or maybe Primus 360s. But I think you meant - new. So maybe the new Elac DF63? At 900 a pair the F35 is really hard to beat.

    Songs with Epic Dynamic Progressions - Calm & Beautiful to Intense

    One more: (my kids used to call this "sleepy music", as I played it at bed time for them; and, now they're adults... and I can't listen to this anymore... I inevitably endup crying)

    Thinking of getting the Paradigm founders 40

    If you can afford it - better is better.

    Thinking of getting the Paradigm founders 40

    The flatter the better. Paradigm's are bumpier, with elevated trebble that you impress in the showroom; but soon become fatiguing at home. Edit: if I were to spend my hard earned money - I'd save some Euros and look for the Kef Cocerto Meta.

    Thinking of getting the Paradigm founders 40

    It was a genuine answer. There's scientifically determined "preference" (work of Toole and Olive) that guides the evaluation here; but then again there is personal preferrence. What you like may not align with the study. You may be an outlier - all perfectly acceptible. But... if I were a...

    Thinking of getting the Paradigm founders 40

    As much as any genuine scientific endeavour is closer to the truth than individual perception. But hey - your taste is your taste - do what pleases you and your ears.

    And Amir locks another thread because he cannot entertain any other opinion than his own....

    Umm... ultimately, ASR is @amirm's to do what ever he wants to. This is not a "public good". There are no shareholders. It's just a project born of one persons efforts, where others can and do contribute significantly. But the others contribute of their own free will. If being here is no longer...

    Cocktails, what are you mixing?

    Yup. My fave as well. I sub in an Apple flavoured whiskey. Makes for a lighter (flavour and alcohol) and more floral drink.

    Dayton Audio PS180-8 full range project

    Any idea of what the directivity would look like? I've always wondered what drivers with parasitic cones produce in dispersion charts.
