    Recommended Thicknesser Planer

    Valuable advise, I'll definitely keep all of these in mind. Im planing to do a whole lot of wood work, including, dare I says: plantation shutters. So the machine will be used, believe me on that one. Good heads-up on the metal detractor, fortunately I have one, also by the Bosch. Sent from...

    Recommended Thicknesser Planer

    I looked at both METABO and JET, which are widely available locally. I would like to compare them with Dewalt price wise, if there is one locally. Makita is another trusted brand but on the expensive side.

    Recommended Thicknesser Planer

    Im in a market for a benchtop/portable thicknesser planer, or a jointer/thicknesser combo. I basically don't want a big bulky machine, and also not looking to spend a lot of money. I've been on the net reading reviews and watching videos, but all of those videos are from overseas. The one...

    Preamp journey

    How will it integrate with the HT preamp, does it have a bypass? Sent from my AMN-LX9 using Tapatalk

    Preamp journey

    Given the fact that it's not a dedicated stereo and you still don't want to compromise the HT side... My suggestions are: 1- High end HT/Stereo preamp + dedicated Dac. Yes there are such preamps... Problem will be budget 2- Preamp with HT bypass + dedicated DAC then do bass management with...

    Apple TV2 or 3 as a music streamer

    Trust me by the time you get to heaven your equipment will be in the classified [emoji28] Jokes aside, that's great. Yeah the Harmony remote is great. Cool then, if adding another source ain't an issue that's awesome. Sent from my AMN-LX9 using Tapatalk

    Apple TV2 or 3 as a music streamer

    I imagine only yourself and maybe your wife operates the system? I remember a thread about "who do you let touch your equipment". Im asking this because the more components the more you create a key-man dependency, unless of course you really do not want anyone but you touching your system...

    Preamp journey

    ML 431 I had an Emotiva driving 703Ss then shortly got the ML for an unbelievable steal. The Emo sounds really good, very clear. But since B&Ws are on the bright side it wasn't good synergy. The ML on the other hand is warmer, fuller, can hit the low notes with ease and just better overall. I...

    Apple TV2 or 3 as a music streamer

    What's your movie/series source? Do you have a separate solution for video and music? Sent from my AMN-LX9 using Tapatalk

    Preamp journey

    Try an Emotiva Xmc-2, check if you can audition it locally. It has all of the above plus Dirac, which I totally love. I'm just not sure if it will meet your demands sonically, but you could be surprised. I'd still get a good dedicated Dac. I own an Xmc-1 feeding it with a Vivere Dac. Not in the...

    Agreed, bypass will narrow down your options. Tubes won't be ideal unless you don't mind having them on all the time even when not listed to stereo. Sent from my AMN-LX9 using Tapatalk

    Are you planning to do an HT bypass? Or going full stereo? Sent from my AMN-LX9 using Tapatalk

    The power of acoustic treatment

    I'm so motivated. Planning to do a bit of treatment in my room. I bought a roll of 50mm Mineralwool, Insulpro, can't remember the density. Still not sure which is better, Mineralwool vs Fibreglass. My thinking was to use fiberglass for corner bass trap chunks and mineralwool for panels. Any...

    What makes a good preamp

    I've been quietly active :) Great thread, a bit over my head here and there but I'm following. I moved away from a stereo preamp with HT bypass to a preamp that apparently has  separate boards for stereo and HT. It does sound good, but for stereo I'm sure I can get better. I just like the...

    Yes I wanna see the HT room too, at the same time afraid to... Is that a  bass trap in the one corner or is the corner shaped like that? Sent from my AMN-LX9 using Tapatalk

    Upgrade path

    I can't see the poll, maybe it's Tapatalk. Anyway, I'm still happy with my source and cables. I think my main speakers are ok, an upgrade would be great but not really on my mind. It would be great to hear what a different preamp would sound like, but I'm still happy with it. Only after I've...

    Today is the day

    On the topic of toe in or out. I had mine slightly toed in. Then over the weekend I had them more toed in. They sounded more direct, with the eyes open you could tell exactly where the different instruments were coming from. Narrow sound stage, yet still good to listen to when you are right in...

    Congratulations bro, they are bream speakers indeed. IMHO the D2s are the best looking B&Ws, I don't know what happened after that model, great choice. I would love to hear how they sound in that treated room. Do you have enough power for them? Sent from my AMN-LX9 using Tapatalk
