Couldn't read the entire thread , but can someone please tell me the difference between Flex and SHD Studio? I already have RME Dac. Understand that SHD studio is Digital out only, but if I buy Flex with Analog out, probably, I could replace RME with it. But I'm little confused. Which will offer...

Still an overkill for my speakers which has a sensitivity of 100 dB !!!

Dear All, As title says. Payment method : PayPal with buyer/seller protection ( Strictly non negotiable ). Thanks -M

What was the reason to pick 5628 instead of SUB18? Also why do you think SUB18 offers better extenstion? 5628 offers 24 Hz @-3dB and SUB18 gives 23Hz @-6dB !!

So basically the ‘Cobranet’ is nothing but an Ethernet port?!!!

Surprisngly, SUB18 is more expensive than 5628 in India !!! 5628 is marketed as a cinema sub. Wondering whether it makes sense to use it in an average home.. On a separate note, what's the best way to connect a PC to iTech-5000 HD amp? Buy a miniDSP SHD studio? Or something equivalent?

Anyone familiar with 5628 sub? Dealer doesn't have SUB18 in stock and he recommended 5628 instead..

Excellent!!! Exactly the kinda info I was looking for. Thank you…!!

Hey Paul, I'm in the process of getting M2 and Crown i-Tech 5000amps. The info you provided is very helpful. Now on the SUB18, can you please elaborate little more? What I understrand from your post is that the improvement we hear by adding a SUB18 is not significant enough to justfy the added...

Both are 2 channel DACs !! Looks like a miniDSP SHD Studio is the easy (& expensive) solution. Thanks Kal..

Can we use stereo with dual subwoofers if I buy multi Chanel suite? In such case, how do I feed separate LF signals to subwoofers?( 2.2 configuration). What I'm trying to do is to avoid buying a H/W like miniDSP SHD but expecting same functionality from a Dirac running PC and DACs ( I've an RME...

DSP technology is still evolving & class D tech too. A built in active XOver & amp is kind of limiting options to try out various components. System like D&D is more of a closed one than an M2..

Isn’t the other way around ? A passive XOver limits the options..,

I hear nothing, absolutely nothing from my speakers even if I keep my ears next to the driver. The sensitivity of it is 100 dB @8 ohm & being driven by RME/Yamaha A-S500 combo. The SNR of the Yamaha is 100 dB. Does it mean that I don’t get any benefit if I move to AHB2 from Yamaha other than an...

Question.. Does Dirac do more or less the same ? Not that I could afford a DG-58/68, but just to feel good if Diract does 99% of what DG does :)

What's the benefits of a LA4 & AHB2 combo over a Pre-amp DAC like RME & AHB2 combo? I have an RME, use it as DAC & pre-amp and consider buying AHB2 and wondering what will be the additional benefit I get if I add LA4 also in the chain. Btw, I've no intention to use multiple souces. Roon->RME...

Hi Kal, Can you please tell what does ‘PC audio, done’ correctly mean? I use Roon in PC, and (with your kind help), configured Dirac which feeds in to RME dac (USB) that flows to amp. How anyone can possible do it in a bad (incorrect ) way? Is there any better way to do in my case? Thanks

Everything works fine, but noiced slight uncentered stereo image. Also DLP shows -1.2 db left gain & 0.1ms Right delay.

Excellent. It works now !! Thank you. I could see 'Dirac' in Roon !! Created the foter and now everything works.. But for whatever the reason, the sound level of 'Dirac' ouput is way too low. When I checked the 'Master Output' level on DL3 in 'Volume Calibration' stage, I see the default is set...

Thanks Kal. Just to check, I did a quick ( & dirty) measurement and created a filter ( Export filter??). Now I assume that this needs to be 'imported/added' in to Roon. Is that so?
