    Tekton M-Lore Speaker Review

    I’ve wondered, what kind of room does Kipple use in it’s PIR modeling? Is there some kind of average room model it uses? Thanks. (my apologies for straying off topic)

    Recommend replacement cable for Drop + DCA Aeon Closed X headphones?

    I went ahead and ordered a cable from Hart which arrived today. As @Chester mentioned, it is a bit more microphonic than the stock cable, but not so bad it detracts too much while music is playing. The cable is also thinner than I expected from the pictures; not that it really matters to me...

    Recommend replacement cable for Drop + DCA Aeon Closed X headphones?

    Is microphonic enough to be really annoying in your experience?

    Best headphones in the $500-$800ish range?

    A year ago I bought the Drop + Dan Clark Audio Aeon X Closed and a JDS Atom+ amp. I’m still thrilled with this combo!

    Recommend replacement cable for Drop + DCA Aeon Closed X headphones?

    The cable that came with my Drop+DCA Aeon Closed X headphones is too short, so I’ve been using a cable extension. The connector on the cable extension is now failing. I’m thinking instead of buying another cable extension I would just by a longer replacement cable to eliminate the extension as...

    A Call For Humor!

    Lol. I had a pair of those Panasonic Thrusters back around 1980. They came with one of those cheap all-in-one stereo sets (turntable, tuner, cassette player, amp/controls all in one unit) which I‘m sure cost much less than the asking price in that ad. If you look at the label, you will notice...

    Magnepan LRS Speaker Review

    Unfortunately, I don’t have any experience with external crossovers/filters. Check out this thread. It might be helpful. https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/fmod-high-pass-filters.18190/

    Magnepan LRS Speaker Review

    It doesn’t appear that preamp offers any bass management or a high pass filter. I believe you can buy external high pass filters that you can connect between your preamp and amp so a full range signal isn’t sent to the LRS.

    Magnepan LRS Speaker Review

    Good point. I should have clarified the use of a high pass (as well as low pass) filter in my posts.

    Magnepan LRS Speaker Review

    Of course what you like to play and how loud you like it is a factor as well. If you like bass heavy music played loud, a higher crossover frequency would be better. If your taste is chamber music at lower levels, then you can get away with, and may even prefer, a lower crossover frequency...

    Magnepan LRS Speaker Review

    Sure, give it a try. There is no one perfect setting. It’s going to vary depending on one’s setup/room.

    Magnepan LRS Speaker Review

    80hz works well in my system. You’ll have to experiment to see what works best in your system, but as mentioned, 80hz is a good place to start.
