    Tekton M-Lore Speaker Review

    Send one of those crossovers to GR Research; that would be a lovely "minor cheeeeeeeeeeeesy controversy".

    Legal fund for Reviewers/Erin?

    I never heard of Tekton until this "minor online controversy" happened but I personally think this bullying is the main reason why 99% of reviews online are only positive reviews (talking more about those from US). To me it feels that a big number of reviewers just prefer not to publish a...

    Schiit Magni 3+ and Heresy Headphone Amp Reviews

    :eek::eek::eek: This is bad! did you sent the jack adapter to them and they tested it out or how did they got to the conclusion that was a low quality? I don't even know how to tell apart a good quality from a bad quality one.

    Elac Uni-Fi 2.0 Review (bookshelf speaker)

    I had UF52 and returned them as the build quality was terrible. (they were supposed to be brand new but grilles came with broken legs, etc) While this doesn't speak about the sound in any way, it might be an indicator of the quality control with *52 series to get a certain number of units that...

    I never had a pair of Philips headphones and I think these X3 would be my first ones (ordered now).

    Choosing between Senheiser HD600 and HD6XX

    Apart from sound, HD6XX does seem to be a bit muddier but difficult to tell. A couple of differences on the appearance and usability side: 6XX came with a large case/box while 600 did not 600 cable is thinner, longer and the 3.5mm to 1/4 is screw on

    If you look at CR, they put BMW right behind Lexus and Toyota with Mazda there in the top as well. After Consumer Reports it seems I have two of the most reliable car brands :) A thought about rankings......

    For my wife, we moved from this: To this: Same platform, same interior just with 2.5l turbo engine. Because it's ASR, let's share some beginner measurements as out of curiosity I've measured today the CX-30's system (which should be identical as the speakers and amp have the same part number)...

    Schiit Magni 3+ and Heresy Headphone Amp Reviews

    That's pretty much the difference in price I would say: $109 from Schiit, shipping to Europen Union, adding 20% VAT there and you get close to 170euro.

    Schiit Magni 3+ and Heresy Headphone Amp Reviews

    I see it on Schiit Europe page for 169euro with VAT while price on Schiit.com is $109 without taxes. It's definitely more but I wouldn't say it's quite absurd unless I'm missing something.

    Revel M106 Bookshelf Speaker Review

    I use the Revel ones on carpet but you need to be very careful not to bump into the speakers as they are top heavy and official stands base area is not that large.

    Sennheiser HD660S Review (Headphone)

    Thanks. I'll monitor nevertheless HD660S2 measurements by Amir once they would be available; I think their marketing on the low end got to me as this was something I felt lacking on my 6XX. I don't have EQ and I don't use Roon either; I also flip frequently between using headphones and speakers...

    Sennheiser HD660S Review (Headphone)

    I have the 6XX (Drop version of HD650) and looking at the new HD660S2 as I don't like the lack of bass on my 6XX; for $199 I think 6XX are fine but due to the lack of bass I don't listen to them (even if they are comfortable); I would buy HD660S2 if it's anything like 6XX but with more bass...

    Share your in-room measurements?

    Ah, ok. Attached them. It's the first time when I'm playing with REW and ROON with EQ and these filters are after reducing the target level to minimize boosting frequencies as much as I can.
