I have four original Made in USA Mackie HR824 monitors so I figured I should do some measurements on them to see how consistent the factory calibration is on them. Two of the speakers are from 1999 and two are from 2000. I've attached an overlay of my 4 speaker measurements trying to keep levels...

Hi there, I was wondering if you guys have any recommendations for balanced audio cables that are inexpensive? I picked up a pair of cheap powered studio monitors for garage use and need a couple balanced 25' cables to hook them to my DAC. Any thoughts? Thanks!!

Am I asking too much?

Hi there, wondering if anyone can recommend a decent subwoofer in the $500-700ish range with L/R XLR ins and outs to be used with a pair of Mackie HR824 studio monitors? Thanks!

I know these two are different being studio monitors vs portable PA speakes. But they both measure extremely well from what I've seen and both can be had for $400 to 500. Just throwing ideas out there. I would consider JBL 305P as they would be the most affordable validated option but I'm...

Hi there. I'm using a pair of Mackie HR 824 powered studio monitors coming straight out of my LA-QXD1 DAC via XLR. My Mackies have adjustable input gain from -10dBv to +4dBu. Which setting would be correct for use with my Soncoz DAC via XLR? Thanks!

Hi there I was wondering if you could recommend an affordable audio interface to be used with the Sonarworks mic for room correction. Unfortunately my UMIK-1 won't work with sonarworks, so I need to use their XLR mic which requires an audio interface with +48v Phantom Power and 44.1 kHz sample...

Hi guys, wondering if you can recommend a good near field / desktop bookshelf speaker? I currently have a big pair of Canton speakers but I think they are a bit much for my room size and don't have room to open up. I thought about something like a JBL 4408, or maybe some smaller canton's or ADS...

Has anyone had issues with Toslink audio through their LA-QXD1? I'm getting random cut-outs with mine, hooked via Toslink from my LG TV. Audio via USB is totally fine, however. And I know it's not the TV, as I just hooked up my old Schiit Modi 3 via Toslink and it was perfectly fine, with no...

I just received my Soncoz LA-QXD1 and I'm having trouble with the bit rate on my Mac. I have it set to 32 bit/768 in my midi setup, although Amazon HD shows device capability as 24bit/768. Additionally, I am unable to get sound via Google Chrome when the bitrate is set this way. Any insight...

These all seem to be the closest competitors to each other in the $200 price range with being a high performing balanced DAC. I'm having a hard time making a decision between the three, was hoping maybe you guys could help me make a decision. I'm also open to other products in the same price...

Obviously these two are very different in that the D90 is a DS DAC, whereas the Denafrips is an R2R. They're both around the same price and both test very well. Anyone have experience with both? Looking to make an upgrade from my Modi 3. All help is greatly appreciated!
