    Elac Debut Reference DBR-62 Speaker Review

    I think there is some misunderstanding here, prompted by my response to the question about room calibration. Although the bulk of my trial involved Tidal playing through Roon, I also did play two sides from two LPs -- music that I know very well. Once again, the difference was night and day. I...

    Elac Debut Reference DBR-62 Speaker Review

    Agreed. Annoying, sibilant and bright speakers these are not.

    Elac Debut Reference DBR-62 Speaker Review

    You are right. Ultimately, though, I also have a turntable in that room (a smaller study), and my current method of calibration, which involves plugging in the measurements into Roon, will not help with that. Given these constraints, it has to be the ear test, and under the circumstances of the...

    Elac Debut Reference DBR-62 Speaker Review

    I agree. You are right. That said, perhaps loudspeaker reviews must in future be more nuanced -- and explain the operational parameters. Maybe someone should create an app -- with the dimensions of the room, location of windows, nature of furniture, treatments, etc., inputted by the listener /...

    Elac Debut Reference DBR-62 Speaker Review

    I just realized something. The room correction I had done was with my original set of speakers, not either of these. That said, the difference was too significant to ignore or brush aside.

    Elac Debut Reference DBR-62 Speaker Review

    Makes sense, but Room correction should have fixed this. My previous speakers were reasonably good.

    Elac Debut Reference DBR-62 Speaker Review

    Yes, I do use Room correction now. And no, I didn't take measurements. No need to, as the question was which one to keep, and my ears, and those of two others, made things very easy indeed. There is simply no comparison.

    KEF Q350 Speaker Review

    Thus far, I have found the recommendations on this forum to be right on the money. Alas, not so with this one, especially when contrasted with Amir's review of the ELAC DBR 6-2. To my ears, it was quite the opposite. I found the ELAC DBR-62 to be absolutely devoid of detail, and its soundstage...

    RME ADI-2 FS Version 2 DAC and Headphone Amp Review

    A quick question, if I may. I recently bought this device, and am really enjoying it. I connect it to a RPi4 running Ropiee, a Roon endpoint OS. It all works quite seamlessly. For those who are wondering, the amp stage on this is simply outstanding too. That said, not being an engineer by...

    Room Measurement Tutorial for Dummies Part 2

    Thank you sir. Also, for other newbies like myself in the same situation, I found a very useful piece on the Roon forum. Here is the URL: https://community.roonlabs.com/t/a-guide-how-to-do-room-correction-and-use-it-in-roon/23800 The only problem is that this, and other guides talk about...
