Are there IR codes listed for this device? I didn't keep the manual

In-ceiling Polk speaker in the kitchen. I have a Wiim Pro Plus in front of the Fosi. I have the 32V power supply. You would probably want the 48V. I suggest simply shopping price and features from the green section of Amirm's list. I assume the Fosi is near the top for price/performance.

It also sounded like crap compared to high end gear of that day. Sometimes I wish we could still buy noticeably better sound from expensive amps.

I'm using the Fosi Audio ZA3 on a small system. I would bet money that you could not hear the difference between the Fosi and the Topping

I don't know if sibilants is placement depedent. I hear it sitting in the ideal position with the speakers square to the room (10-15 degrees off access?). But I don't hear it often, and I only hear it when the mic is obviously near clipping. It's just like hearing sibilants in a live performance...

I hear sibilants occasionally with the R3 Meta, especially from from female vocals. It may be in the recording. I find the problem worth it for the detail the R3 provides in some instruments. I'm very pleased with these speakers. I do use Dirac Live. There is a very significant difference...

Just buy a Wiim Pro Plus and put it in front of the Buckeye. There a huge amount of software development in the Wiims. Taking it further use Roon with the Wiim as an endpoint. I find the above a better value and more sophisticated than BlueOS. I have a Node 2i.

Not allowed There's cheap, and then there is too cheap

I bought it and I love it. It's big, it's metal, and the worthless meters are pretty. Not one of my stupider purchases of recent times.

I liked the 601. Probably never heard the 901 in the right room. In that era I would take the relatively crude Klipsch over both.

That's interesting. While passive PA speakers are less common, I assumed that better ones would have XLR connectors.

True for true audiophiles. But high end speakers in very expensive houses are almost never near the power amps. I find it disappointing that more speakers don't have balanced connectors. But I assume the fancypants $15K speakers do usually have balanced. I like how the Chinese designed products...

The Purifi has input sensitivity switching. I assume on high that the 1.5v is fine.

How I would spend a $1500 budget: Wiim mini or Wiim pro using digital out on each. No need for the Wiim Pro Plus as the DAC isn't used miniDSP Flex + Dirac + UMIK-1 microphone. Plus a cheap full size microphone stand from amazon Buckeye Hypex NC252MP (250W) I like the value of the above. Plus...

I would start with a quality Class D amp only like Buckeye. Amps can last a couple of decades or more. The preamp/streaming can be purchased separately.

RME or miniDSP if Dirac or a crossover is desired. I've enjoyed the software updates from both companies. I don't see spending $900 without getting more features. Has Topping ever improved a product after sale?

Most commonly next to the front speakers is how many/most subs are placed. However with a single sub I couldn't find a good placement. With two subs and Dirac the front placement works fine. My left and right speakers, and two subs, are a couple of meters from side walls. Needing to place...

Personally I would put money towards a new Denon/Marantz with Dirac. The trouble with reviews of more expensive speakers is that most people don't run them "vanilla". We often use subs and Audyssey or Dirac. Processing makes a vastly larger difference than what exists between quality speakers at...

With no subwoofers? I think it depends if the speakers need to be against the wall.
