Hey, I have some pretty good headphones and iems but the only speaker i own is an Ultimate ears hyperboom which battery dosent even last that long. So i wanna finally buy some good sounding speakers. Info: I live in a pretty small apartment around 40m2. And my couch is around 3-5 meters from my...

I already had a discussion on this with some people but I still don't really get it. Now I am also not that deep into audio to really understand everything but this is what makes sense to me. Lets say we have a speaker that measures perfectly flat in an anechoic chamber. This means that the...

Hi all, i hope my thread is in the placed right area, if not please move it to the right area. Currently i have some KEF R5 (no META) speakers powered by a NAD C268 amp which is sourced by a NAD C658 preamp. The setup is placed in the living room which is about 26 square meters in size. The...

Yesterday I reviewed a rew graph I made quite some time ago (1y+) and for 'fun' checked the distortion graph of the sweeps. I noticed there was quite a large bump at the right speaker in a particular region (1.6 - 1.7 Khz). Since these sweeps were taken so long ago and in the far field (3.5...

Brief overview: Klein + Hummel O110, around 15 years old, making noises as seen in the video below. Quite temperamental tweeter electricity noise, started around 3 months ago, 60% of the time it works perfectly fine, it is unusable when this happens. The noise still happens when XLR cable is...

Looks interesting. Would sound engineers ever use electrostatic speakers for mastering ? https://poporiacoustics.com/hu/home-3/

hi guys, what's the most cost effective upgrade I could take for my current setup? am using: kef lsx II listening about 1.5m away from the speakers, they are used on my desk with my pc. no sub, no eq (only whatever settings in the kef connect app) used for music / youtube most of the time...

Hi my friends! I am complete new into this hobby of building speaker boxes and after making a lot of research I still couldnt discover how to solve this question. I have 2 speakers (125w RMS - Taramps 7driver HD 250S) which have a really really really nice sound (from low-high). I built a box...

I am building my first system where I am going to stream music from my computer to a streamer (likely Bluesound Node) and connect it to the speakers both in my office and in another room. One of my first dilemmas is getting high quality speakers that can reproduce 24/192 sound (or at least...

Today I saw a video talking about a phase shifted square wave. In that video, he show cased how a square wave and a 90 degree phase rotated square wave sounds like, which sounds the same in frequency perspective of course. But interestingly, the phase shifted square needs more dynamic range to...

$800 pickup; shipping at cost. Single walnut Kef R3, with grille, bass baffle plug thing, and original box. Bought new a year ago, splitting a pair with another forum member here to use as a center channel. Selling because it doesn't quite fit in the media cabinet and it's lost the battle...

Just switched back from JRiver 29 to Foobar... Looking for Eole type of F2k theme... Any help?

Hi, I am looking for a tower speaker for a 20-38sqm room. Price shouldn't go over 1600 EUR($1700) for a pair. I own SMSL A300 amp and SMSL C200 dac with very very old Nordmende speakers :D I am looking for some speakers with similar sound to my headphones Shure 940 and ATH-R70x. I don't want to...

Hi all! Merry Christmas Eve! I've paired my JBL 305p MKII Monitors with an IFI Zen Air DAC... I toggled boundary EQ to -3dB and now trying to tighten up the low end using DSP... My IFI DAC has an XBass+ switch which is an ASP circuitry. I know the XBass (XBass+ has better components) feature is...

Hello everyone! Newbie here... I have paired my IFI Zen Air DAC with JBL 305p MKII Monitors using IFI Zen Air DAC’s RCA outputs… Will it be safe to use the XBass+ feature of IFI Zen Air DAC when I’m listening to my JBL Speakers? Is XBass+ only meant for headphones and not for speakers? Is XBass+...

I need several small powered speakers for a sculpture project, but the nature of the project implies specific requirements. The speakers will be installed on a flat board hanging on a wall, and covered by a mask that has low clearance. no bluetooth needed - wired AUX input mandatory. Ideally...

Hi all, so I'm kinda new to audiophile (2 years ago I was still using Astros A40 so don't judge me) and since the beginning of the last year I bought 2 KPH30i (one clear, that is modded with Grado pads, and another normal) and a Beyerdynamic Tygr. I have some headphones on my list, such as...

Unsure if this is the right way of submitting a request but I'd really like to read an in-depth review of the Telegrapher Gorillas. https://www.telegrapherloudspeakers.com/gorilla

Erin @hardisj is back with another fantastic review! :eek::D These retail for approximately $979/pair USD. Plus the full suite of measurements at: https://www.erinsaudiocorner.com/loudspeakers/monitoraudio_silver_50_7g/ His conclusion: Discuss!

That title… Sounds impossible, right? Possible, and sounds right. The project has spanned some years of (1) excessive backlit screen reading, (2) many in-person listening sessions to diverse high end systems, and (3) defining my preferences/expectations, then pursuing them with this particular...
