Re: More About Powering a System

Curious how they daisy-chain when there a 3 outlets each on either side of the inlet - that suggests it's double daisy-chained, left & right, separately... The 'noise-reduction technology' in the P6 makes me skeptical, too... Do you have any experience or knowledge of the internal wiring and/or, mo...

Re: More About Powering a System

Maybe worth a try is also a new powerstrip from Chord:

They do not use star-wiring like others but daisy-chain the outlets so the hierarchy of devices is ensured.

Re: JBL 3677

What are your thoughts on completely rebuilding the crossover with high-quality components? I left my 3677s in their original state. In rebuilding a crossover you have so many variables that the risk is high ending with an unmusical result. I am happy with these speakers as they are. From a source ...

Re: Measurements of the Linn Utopik power supply

However, on a technical view it might be interesting why Linn has chosen a much lower switchfrequency at 33,9 KHz for the Utopik, when the former dynamik had 2,5 higher switch frequency than the non-dynamic power supply before that. The voltage output is also slightly lower from the Utopik than wit...

Hermann,
I don't know if it helps but I enabled "Band Steering" on my router so it searches automatically on both 2.4 and 5GHz for the best channel.

Re: What’s Slam Got To Do With It?

Isn't slam an aspect of transients just discussed more in regard to bass, but not exclusively? Yes, certainly not excusively. What slam is in the midbass is something like attack at higher frequencies. Both are surely no artefacts made by the speaker but present at a live concert. Some speaker driv...

There are two camps here. The members of both camps are standing on the foundation of the tune method.
But for the members of one camp this is not enough, they do not want to be without "slam" for example.
