    NAD Goes Retro With Its New C 3050 Stereophonic Amplifier

    I’m typically not brand-loyal, but in the case of integrated amplifiers, I’m sticking with NAD. For the past 13 years I’ve had a c 375BEE, whose abundance of power, features, and I/O capabilities has kept it relevant unto the present day. This new c 3050 is another example of how NAD is a value...

    Subwoofer Optimization in 2.1 and 2.2 Stereo Systems - New White Paper from Deer Creek Audio

    I'm a novice in the use of REW and have a question regarding the setting of subwoofer delay. How exactly is the subwoofer output in the above example routed to the left channel? I'm probably missing something obvious, but it's not immediately clear to me how this is accomplished. I'd appreciate...

    Sub vs. Bass Trap

    Hi, everyone! I have what I hope will be an easy question. I currently have a GIK soffit trap positioned in a corner with my Hsu ULS 15 Mk 2 just to the inside of it. However, guidance from Tom Nousaine and Dr. Hsu himself advises loading the sub within a foot of the corner. The size of the...

    Down The Rabbit Hole of ClassD

    Congratulations! Based on reviews I’ve seen (e.g., audiosciencereview.com, audioholics.com, etc), well executed Class D designs are fast becoming the best available (assuming they’re not already there), due to their high power output, efficiency, and low distortion levels. I hope you enjoy it!

    TRITON ONE.R vs Martin Logan ESL 13A or 15A ??

    I see what you’re saying…that’s a nice room, but you’d be pretty limited with acoustic treatments. Looks like it may be time for a new pair of speakers!:jump:

    TRITON ONE.R vs Martin Logan ESL 13A or 15A ??

    Why not use acoustic room treatments to dampen the reflections? No speaker will perform at its optimum level in a room with poor acoustics; I’m guessing you would have a similar problem with the MLs.

    New System with Small Speakers for Quality Listening

    For highest value, I recommend the PSB Alpha series or SVS Prime Bookshelf speakers. As a modest step up, you might want to check out the PSB Imagine XB or the SVS Ultra Bookshelf. In addition, the SVS 3000 Micro is a lot of sub in a small package. Both companies offer generous no-risk trial...

    CES 2022: Mark Levinson Unveils Its First Headphone Design. Meet the All-New № 5909!

    Very cool, thanks for posting. I’m a bit of a headphone nerd, so this sort of thing really appeals to me. I currently use a pair of Sony WH1000-XM4 headphones for BT ANC duty. It will be interesting to see how these much more expensive cans compare.
