Thanks but I would have preferred smooth bench tests to get the job done. This puts a kink in the chain for me RN.

Looks good. Too bad they didn't run an FFT like I did. I found some things I'm not thrilled with in how this platform handles 0dBFS input signals. Hoping it can be resolved via firmware. In contact with them now. Here is a pic of the RX-A6A I have under test.

Someday your Oppo Blu-ray player is going to break. Those amazing little silver discs are bulky and not really needed anymore. Streaming in HD is killer but audiophiles hate change. Any kind of change. Here’s an article that gives a roadmap to the people who don’t really understand how to deal...

It would be nice if Andrew Jones could make a speaker with a sensitivity rating of at least 90dB at 1 meter/2.83V and also be able to play loud in a large room. The problem with most of his designs for Elac is they rely on a 5" mid with 1" coax tweeter which really limits dynamic range.

Yea The DSU is really magical. Thanks for the song tip. In my theater room, my front soundstage is very closely matched since they are active speakers with FIR correction. I used anechoic data of the satellite and copied that filter for the left/right speakers. The center channel has it's own...

Yea in retrospect, I feel that Patrick is a bit of an Auro fanboy. While I agree that many Atmos mixes aren't very good and may benefit from his approach, I did all the tests he suggested after that video and I usually prefer a good Atmos speaker layout using Atmos for native content and the DSU...

The reports of Auro upmixing are greatly exaggerated, IMHO. I have all 3 formats and tested them extensively. If you use the DSU with center spread on, the upmixing is as good as the Auromatic. The problem with an Auro 3D speaker layout is it's not compatible with Atmos. I would never compromise...

Yea I've managed to cut my dose of Mirtazipine from 30mg/day to 15mg/day and lost 4lbs in a week. I am getting my medical marijuana card soon. Edibles are the way to go for anxiety and sleep plus they have the added benefit of making music sound so much better too ;)

3 day weekend ahead and celebrating my oldest daughter's 21st B-Day. Yes some time off much needed. thanks.

Use the word "science" loosely when mentioning this company. I watched a few of his videos and cringed when he talked about subwoofer placement.

I only include companies whom we've actually measured their products and have review experience with. PSB/NAD doesn't seek out much press with us so unfortunately they weren't part in this as a result.

Guys, this is one Youtube livestream you won't want to miss happening on our channel today. Improving Loudspeaker Specifications Standards for Consumers (Live on Sept 3rd, 6:00pm EDT) Loudspeaker specifications are often ambiguous or incomplete in consumer audio making purchasing decisions...

I cringed when I saw that move happen.

Andrew Jones has left Elac Americas to pursue a “fantastic opportunity” elsewhere. What might Andrew Jones be cooking up next? Meanwhile, Elac has announced the Solano series of loudspeakers. The first Elacs of the post-Jones era feature the company’s signature JET5 Air Motion Transformer...

I didn't write this but agree with many of Jerry's points. Sad to see the state CEDIA is in right now and hope we can get back to "normal" in 2022. https://www.audioholics.com/editorials/cedia-2021-cancel

VPE is put on hold for now. Sorry guys. They are sending me 8300s soon though ;)

We will be hosting a Virtual Press Event for RBH Sound this Friday at 5pm EDT for their unveiling of their new UNRIIVALED series of loudspeakers.

TCL’s affordable 6-Series TVs will be all 8K in 2021. The Chinese company beat the competition off the starting line with the world’s first mini-LED TVs, and then made that tech more attainable by trickling it down to its popular midrange 6-Series TVs in 2020. For the 2021 6-Series, TCL ups the...

That passage you mention is NOT my home. I gave a demo to a client that is building a 32,000 Ft^2 home in Tampa and they were so impressed that they ordered a full in-wall version. Another upscale client recently came to my new home to hear this speaker system and they are building an 85,000...
