Rick Beato. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJquYOG5EL82sKTfH9aMA9Q great stuff - “what makes this song great” and some really cool interviews

hi my 2 cents - https://www.trinnov.com/en/blog/posts/trinnov-speaker-layout-guide/ might,look bit overwhelming at first read, but guides you through all the possible,scenarios and setups. Worth keeping for referemce. then there is a. guy tirelessly mapping Atmos mixes...

Sometimes elevated treble is being mistaken for clarity.

My ML journey started with Summits, with detour to Wilson Audio Sasha, then back to ML Expression, now 15a’s. It was always “more of the same, but better”. Stereophile review - direct comparison of Prodigys to 15a’s...

congrats. ML’s benefit from careful positioning, even more than “normal” speakers. Give it a time, experiment, even inches matter. Try ARC, it is worth it, use all the adjustments. Took me around 6 weeks to dial them perfectly (and my current 15A’s are my 3 rd MartinLogans)

Adam is a legend. This space deserves his magic touch.

While you are correct re base frequencies of voices, I have heard everywhere that critical frequencies for intelegibilty of spech is rather in 1-3kHz area. This is so called "Dialog Enhancer" target curve used by Denon/Marantz - as you see is couple of dB centered around 1.5kHz. [BTW this is the...

yes, that is the plan. Once i find proper stand.

Yes, Trinnov gives the possibility to have several layouts of speakers, even if nothing changes physically. E.g. you can use front wides as additional pair of surrounds in DTS or Center Height [of Auro fame] as dual Center for Atmos. Trinnov is really good in aligning L-C-R and creating the...

Good question - I think dual center is solution to solve specific problem - e.g. 2 row theatre with riser and big LED wall or something similar. And it requires very precise setup and calibration to make it work. I will still experiment in couple of weeks - will try to rise Illusion anprox...

After one day and initial calibration - Illusion is worth the upgrade from Focus (if you get some good deal).

just to add a bit of where Waveforming really shines - it is seat to seat consistency within listening area. and interesting video, explaining also a lot about theory of bass, useful viewing also for non-trinnov folks

so Waveforming from trinnov officialy released https://www.trinnov.com/en/blog/posts/trinnov-releases-4.4.0-software-version-for-the-altitude-platform/ New calibration done, not bad at all. I would say.

I think with OpAmps we are clearly in "do cables sound differently" territory ;-) But I will take a plunge here - I have Purifi 1et400 in 2 versions - one from Apollo and one from Audiophonics, only difference being op-amps - and think they sound slightly different. Not day and night, not a...

New amps - based on new Purifi 1ET9040BA modules - with Weiss buffer/opamp. https://apollonaudio.com/product/purifi-1et9040ba-eigentakt-premium-monoblock-amplifier-pet1200m/ Tons of power, dead silent and with adjustable gain setting, to further improve S/N Had a chance to compare to 35.000 USD...

I like the connectivity with XLR and other setup opportunities. This looks like REL with 2 radiators. Very form friendly and effective solution for small woofers and boxes. But as usual - nothing is for free - you pay with increased distortion, phase issues and Group delay. Still nothing beats...

unless you want aesthetics, electrostats are overkill for surround duties also having their own set of issues. e.g. first rule of HT speaker placement is to have clear line of sight, which is tough for any floorstamder, and especially for ESL. I would go for some good bookshelves (good as with...

Balanced Force Subs are due for refresh, I would say.

If you like the music, there are several much better performances out there. Lang Lang’s venture to Bach from his usual romantic repertoire is a bit of let down. Technically/soundwise nothing to complain. Try Andras Schiff for instance for great take on Goldberg Variations (other than Gould)

After such statement, I would for sure question professionalism of my dealer. Removing resonances is one of the basics of speakers design. I had resonance in one of 13A's coming from loosened internal wire attachment in the past. My dealer sorted it out at my place. No resonances on 15A's. But...
