Pretty basic here - two channel system consists of Maggie’s QR 1.6 mounted on Sound Anchor stands - similar plane to Maggie’s sits the Vandersteen 2Wq - pair of Crown K1's amps in vertical passive control the speakers - the little Jolida 202 integre has been modified to quench the euphonic...
A somewhat attractive lady playing jazz piano without a hook - I just can’t seem to anchor to her delivery style - perhaps it’s the lack of a distinct character in the voice that doesn’t do it for me.
OT - we now have 900 hundred military bases in 130 countries - the push to acquire more is certainly understandable - the need to be prepared for earth’s ultimate threat from invading aliens has never been more urgent - it’s comforting knowing the US can protect us anywhere on the planet -...
I applaud Sanders integrity - his extensive technical research/experience with Hybrid Stats may be unequalled - when combined with total control over electronics and build these speakers may be the best of its kind at this time - applied future technologies can only improve them - the system’s...
The room is a challenging 27’x28’x8’ - the four corners are “superchunked” 34” in width to ceiling - OC 703 was used for chunks/absorbers - absorbers are mostly 2’x4’ varying from 4” to 6” thick - in total there’s 14 absorbers throughout the space - diffusion panels are Auralex T’fussors...
Enlightening thread – my thanks to Tim and Bill.
Tomelex/Tim – in regard to manipulating the third center speaker – I’m sure you’ve aware of the Trinaural Processor by James Bongiorno – this has always held my interest – but doesn’t receive much love – any thoughts on the concept?
New visitors will comment or question the equipment/space – I briefly explain and move on or change the subject - Non audiophiles have little interest in our systems why bore them! I do not offer auditions unless they’re super inquisitive or absolutely insist.
Still inquisitive!
High praise for a moderately priced DAC – anyone familiar with the 'ground breaking' technology implied?

What are your opinions on non defeatable tube D/AC’s that upsample 24/96 – 24/192 without the 44.1 sample option? – Some have the option to engage one of the three modes on the fly - This is proving to be not an easy endeavour since I'm come to like the HDCD playback on the old Parasound D/AC -...
Who enjoys music and the occasional fun babble of audio – I’m not a technical person but I have great ears :rolleyes: the two channel system for the last couple of years is Maggie’s 1.6, pair of Crown K1's, little Jolida 202 modified to quench my euphonic needs when mood prevails – associated...
