stereo

I'm looking for a relatively cheap RCA stereo amp that doesn't measure too badly and that ideally has a balance knob. I'm based in China so a Chinese brand is likely to be cheaper for me. Anyone knows any good one? I've tried looking but haven't had any luck so far. I plan to use it for a few...

Hey everyone! I currently run rz50, Klipsch rp8000f and rp450c as my front stage. Everything else is also Klipsch for a 7.1.4 setup. When I started out I had no plan, and my budget wasn't clear, and so this ended up being my first surround system, not build from hand-me-downs from clients that...

Hello guys. Currently im using Audient id4 with Sennheiser HD 600 headphones and a shure sm7b microphone. I added a dynamite to the microphone, but it is still underpowered. I'm looking to add speakers, maybe like the KEF Q150, and was wondering how to have all these 3 things working well...

Hello I'm looking to buy a new receiver for music listening, gaming (ps5) and watching tv. The music listening experience is surely this most important aspect of the planned use. My budget is around 750 €/585 £. The thing must "work" with an LG C3 tv and Dali Blue 6006 Loudspeakers...

hey so I live in Japan and I'm looking to buy some diatone speakers, my current choice is the DS-77HRX but if you recommend something else below 40,000 yen that you think might be better please go ahead. first of all I don't know if these speakers will be good for a digital source such as a...

Hi, I'm new to the Hi-Fi and audiophile world and want to setup a new home system. My room size is about 25 Sqm (270 sqft). I don't have room for a Surround system so I decided to go for a decent stereo setup and maybe add subwoofer later if needed. So here are the products I chose: Speakers...

During the last days I've been using a sine wave generator ("SineGen") to find peaks in my headphones and equalize them. Yesterday I noticed that this software has an option to adjust the phase of the wave, and I decided to try it out. I did several tests moving the slider with my eyes closed...

For a long time I can not deal with one super problem that everyone knows, but no one understands (at least in our super country Russia) as the main reason to solve it. Games/movies use (or have) a wide/high dynamical range in sound. It looks like this: there is a dialogue in the film and then...

After reading about the new Schiit Syn I asked myself again if surround sound processing for stereo content is worth it . The Schiit is using one of the most simple ways to 'upmix' to surround by just playing the difference between L and R on the rear speakers to create a surround ambience. Home...

OK so after searching all of the internet I thought I would make this post. I have a Marantz NR 1711 receiver equipped with 2 Klipsch RP 600m speakers and matching Klipsch up firing speakers with a Jamo sub. I love my 2.1.2 set up because I have always preferred a stereo sound in my small set up...

Dear All, I am new to the crew and have a question for the expert people around here. I have a system that I consider quiet efficient and simple : an Onkyo 9010 plugged to a pair of Audiovector QR1. I stream my music with qobuz through a Chromcast audio. I would like to stick to a simple...

To start off, my question is different from the "FLAC vs WAV" results you find on Google and I couldn't find my answer on there. I understand that WAV and FLAC are losslessly the same. I wanted to know when it comes to car audio head units, which format the radio would like better (efficiency)...

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...

Hi, I am selling a brand new NC502MP Hypex Ncore module 2X 350W / 8R (500W / 4R), or 1X 1200W bridged. Perfect module to drive big speakers, low THD, transparent and known for its great performance. (See ASR test). Nice for any DIY project. (Power amp, Power block) I provide the cables set +...

Hi, I am looking to replace my cheap PC speakers with something much better. I set a budget to 200-300$ per speaker. I've a 160x70cm desk and 48'' inch TV on it so there is 26cm on the sides left. Also, they can't be too deep, I think max 30cm, but they will be really close to the wall. Desk is...

Hi All, I'm completely new to the world of Hi FI Music and I have a question which is very possibly dumb. I have a Harman Kardon AVR151s receiver which delivers 75W per channel, as per their user manual. Currently I just have a very poor set up with 5 JBL satellites + a JBL Powered Sub...

Hi. I've been doing my own research on my next system upgrade and I want to get it right. Right now I own: Subwoofer: Rythmik F12 Speakers: Magnepan MMG Roon Suscription (with Tidal and Qobuz + local library) I am also an Apple Music subscriber and I hope to control my setup from an app on...
