Yep, the power cable is quite tight and I even put a block of wood under it to keep it from moving. I am using Cardas Clear Beyond XL power cords. I made a change to the head room adjustment moving it to "more" from the "normal setting. I want to see if this will help.
Thanks,
Sam
Thanks Bruce. So you are saying there was a problem with the the RCA connector at the Primary output of the X4. I am running all balanced cables and have changed them out and still get the occasional static sounding pop. The unit does a great job and I hate to get rid of it, however i have fear...
Hello Kal:
Thanks for your response. I am using the X4 for my main speakers in a 2 channel set up. The noise is quite infrequent and hard to tell when it will show up. It almost sounds like a static discharge. I uses the X4 strictly for room calibration. Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks,
Sam
Hello Tom:
I hope you are doing well.
A while back you did a very favorable review on the DSpeaker Antimode X4 device. I purchased one close to 2 years ago and have been very happy with it’s performance, however there is one issue which comes up once in a while. I get a popping static sounding...
Hello Dev:
In my main listening room, I have GIK Acoustics bass absorber panels behind my speakers and that really helps. I highly recommend checking out GIK. They have a good quality product for a fair price and have an excellent customer service operation.
Hello Dev:
I am glad you were able to correct most of the bass problem. As I mentioned I have same Avalon speakers and love the sound. As small of a room they are in, I am surprised that there is no bass boom. Treating the back wall should most likely help, however the speaker's bass port is...
Hello Dev:
I own a pair of Avalon Ascendants which I am powering with 2 Jeff Rowland 125 amps in mono. The speakers are sitting on a rug and are afoot from the wall. The room is quite small, 10 x 12. I get zero boom. The fact that the speakers have their bass port on the underside bottom...
Hello Tom:
Thanks for the great write up on the X4. Based on your good recommendations I purchased one to help tame my Vienna Acoustics- The Music speakers. It works miracles. Tell Walter he owes you a commission!

Welcome:
I am a lover of Avalon speakers and look forward to your contributions to this web-site. Hopefully you will up-date the web-site and keep us all informed about new product.

The woofers in my older pair of Kef 104-2 speakers need to have the center foam replaced. I would prefer to buy new woofers. Does anyone know if they are available, andf if not, do you know a company which would be good at rebuilding them. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Sam:D
Hello Guido:
Nice to hear from you again. Thank you for your most informative reply to my questions.
I recently replaced my EMMLabs DAX2 with the Rowland Aeris. The EMMLabs DAC was an excellent performer, however I feel the Aeris has a much more natural sound, especially on vocals. With all...
Hello Guido:
I hope you are doing well since you have been very silent on this website.
I wanted to to see if you had the chance to hear the Rowland Aeris DAC at RMAF. Whether your feelings are negative or positive, I would lokve to hear what your ears told you. Also were you able to settle on...
Hello Guido:
I hope you are doing well, as it has been a while since you added up-dates on this forum.
I just received my 925's and say I am quite impressed with them right out of the box. It is thrilling to know that they will be getting better as they break in. Compared to the 725's, I hear...
Hello Guido:
You latest article as well as the prior ones, are very convincing that the 925's out perform the 725's. I would expect that to be the case. Most of you reviewing is on the instrumental side. How about female voices? Do you hear alot of breath and natural tone and no edge? The...
Hello Guido:
Thanks a million for you up-to-date detailed report. I am very interested in the 925 monos, however first I must be able to jusitfy the cost for the improvement, and then sell my 725's. So far it sounds very exciting and I look forward to hear more about your "test drive"...
Hello Guido:
It has been very quiet. Is there anyhting new to report as the 925's go through their break in. I am very currios to hear what you feel the 925 monos brings to the table compared to the 725 monoblocks. I would hope there would be some substantial improvements on sound quality for...
Hello Guido:
I presently own a pair of the Rowland 725 Monoblocks and would love to hear your oppinion on the difference in sound between the 725 and the new 925 monoblcks. I am wondering if it is worth the much higher price for the up-grade.
Thanks and looking forward to your reply.
