Hi, I measured my room with REW and got this curve as an average(green). pnc com personal banking Compared to ones I've seen in tutorials, its quite flat compapred to the ideal (blue). Have I read it right or shpould I still carry on looking into room EQ? Thanks

What is your DIY streamer? Thanks I'm using the Audioengine B-Fi which retails at about R4K and can be a streamer only or with built in DAC (Spotify, Tidal etc...).  Wondering what the extra R3300 buys you in a streamer only.

Streamer is Toslink out, DAC has USB/Toslink/Coax in. Thanks

Thanks all. Are you routing through a laptop/pc in analog systems?

Hi All, I have a streamer that goes into a DAC and then into a completely old-school analog system. My streamer and DAC don't have eq filter facilities. I wanted to try toy with room correction without a huge outlay. Anyone know of a way/device either between the streamer and DAC or DAC and amp...

Anyone else in the 80?s think at first that Rega turntables were from Latvia and how did they manage to get them out to the West and how were they so good if the cane from the USSR? 😂

Looking for the LP. Anyone?s have one for sale? Thanks

Hi again, I've been listening on streaming and the bass at the places I've mentioned is really something I've never heard before. Maybe it doesn't happen on the LP. It's almost as if the speakers just freeze or boom in unison or fill the room perfectly. Maybe it's where my speakers are located...

Give it another listen. You may keep it for that bass. What is it?  :groovy:

Hi All, For a treat, have a listen to the first track (Taste of Honey) of the Whipped Cream album by Herb Alpert at about the 0:37 mark, there?s a bass note that I?ve never heard before. Worth it. Enjoy!

I would check that the cables aren't touching. Also, has he swapped speakers?

Anyone remember Mike (can't remember his surname), from Fripps in Westgate Mall in the late 80's? He sold me my first Celestion Ditton Ones and a NAD tuner. Anyone know where he went after that?

This hack will work for anyone who has tiles on the floor with their system is or any sort of pattern on the carpet or flooring. I have recently learned of the benefits of raking the speakers up a bit in the front. The hack works as follows: Go to a Perspex company and get 2 off cuts in...

First visit to my wife-to-be's house in Stellenbosch in Dec 1987 and hearing Money for Nothing on my father in law's Technic's CD Player through a Quad pre and power amp to B&W DM6's. Hooked. Got a Philips 482 CD player for my 21st, initially played it through a Panasonic  RX C39 boombox with...

But I'm sure it never sounded as real as it does now or did in '89. Same way as we knew when we watched VHS that it was fuzzy and there was that tracking thing.

Anyone able to say when it was that audio got decent. When I first became aware was late in the 80?s when I heard Money for Nothing on my father-in-law?s Technics Cd, Quad Pre and Power and B&W DM6?s but listening now to my old Rotel TT from 1984 it?s also amazing. So when did we go from than...
