So I have had my Dynaudio S3.4 speakers since 2004(?). have been thinking of upgrading for some time but it was never the right time. Do I NEED to change? No, of course not. I just want to. And it's been a really long time since I've been out auditioning and want to focus my efforts. This would...

I have had Dynaudio Contour S3.4 speakers since probably 2003. Loved them for a long time. However, I recently visited my brother who has a bunch of Naim gear connected to Totem Forests. Obviously different room, different sources, different pre and power, but I came away very impressed. So much...

Hey - been awhile since I posted (family, happy with gear, etc) but I am looking for some guidance. I have a pair of Shure se535s that I am happy with but for long listening sessions while working, I prefer over ear headphones. For that I have the Sennheiser HD280 which I plug directly into my...

Hi all, A few months ago, like 7, I took in my Rotel amp (rub 1095) to a dealer to have them send back to Rotel to see if they could help with a hum the amp was either generating or "broadcasting" through the speakers (picking up the hum from the plasma I think, ground loop, black magic, etc…)...

Hi all - putting together a basement media room in an open area. It's the "secondary" system. Looking for a decent sub, center, and receiver. I have some old Klipsch towers (KSF-8.5), a to-be-purchased Klipsch RC-52 II, and some Klipsch in-ceiling speakers that were installed when we built the...

Has anyone listened to his new one yet? I haven't been able to pull the trigger yet but everything else from him has been very good, or at least really interesting. If you've listened to it, would be interested to hear what you think.

Hi all, Is there anything that I can do about the following buzz problem? I have a 63" Samsung 8000 series plasma and it has a small buzz that you can hear in a silent room if the amp is not on. Not terrible but it's there. Well, turn the amp on (Rotel 1095) and now all the speakers are blaring...

Named the Xeo, these do look interesting. Given that they are from Dynaudio, very curious as to how they sound. http://www.whathifi.com/news/ces-2012-exclusive-dynaudio-launches-xeo-wireless-multiroom-speaker-systems

.. if you don't care about what's right, or have morals, etc. Since this probably got buried in my other HP thread, I thought I would start a new one to alert people (not that people here wouldn't figure this out). I got my Shure SE535s in the mail but there was a problem. The packaging was...

Hi all, I am looking to break into the HP arena. I'm just now starting to read some of the reviews on headfi and that's, well, overwhelming (and helpful). I used to the have a pair of Shure SE530s (thanks to Flint's recommendation years ago) until my then 4 year old son accidentally pulled...

Hi all, I know this is probably a ground loop issue but not sure how to solve this particular one. I have a Samsung 8000 series plasma and it is creating a hum through the speakers. If I turn off my amp (Rotel RMB 1095) the hum goes away. I have tried other combinations - cable box, cables...

Hi all, I have a family room that is probably 18X22(?) with a 2 story ceiling with wood floors. In that room, which is mostly used for sports, some movies, and kids shows, I had a Velodyne CT--80 that after 12 years bit the dust. It was highly ineffective in that room anyway but came with me...

Hi out there, Anyone have personal experience with this version or any other of the DAC1 units? Thinking about adding one to hook up to a laptop to listen to lossless audio through my main system. Plus, it can serve as a dedicated 2 channel preamp as well. It seems like an interesting unit...

Really looking forward to this one - Franco looks prefect for this role and obviously it is an amazing story. Gave me goosebumps watching the trailer.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlhLOWTnVoQ Edit - not sure why I can't embed the video as I think I am using the link correctly.

Hi all, Because of space limitations in the new home I have to go from a Sony VPL-VW50 and a Stewart Firehawk 110" screen to an on-wall TV. So, yeah, not excited about it but has to happen (not only because of fit but because of light in the walk-out basement). Looking for a 55-60" LCD TV...
