[QUOTE="AlleyCat, post: 1168693, member: 2194"] [USER=517]@KenMasters[/USER] It is with difficulty that I read and re-read your reply and opine s follows to it, just focussing on what was written in the blog: Why must everything always come down to the lowest denominator, e.g.an amp is amp, is an amp? Let’s ask some forum members, like hifi supremo [USER=1024]@hendrikvr[/USER] why he found it necessary to change his amps, or [USER=13448]@Drifter[/USER] with his change from his Devialet mono-blocks to his Mola Mola’s, and whether he found any appreciable differences. REW ans such tools only provide so much measurement information - for example : can it help with specificity f imaging? How about enhancing subtle cues, or low level resolution details, and/or extracting reverberation,etc Coupling/de-coupling of speakers equipment affects the sound produced,sometimes negatively and positively. Personal example : My Boston Audio carbon/stainless steel footers under my B & W N803’s tightened my unruly bass and by extension improved my minds and tops. The opposite happened using them with my Vivid B1’s. “ A key part of that process will be positioning the speakers and whilst there are many different approaches to this problem, the problem itself is always the same: you have to balance the low-end output of the speaker against the low-frequency behaviour of the room.“ - This is possible one of the best pieces of advice given. In my personal, even with the help of some of the tools you mention, it still took me many hours of moving my speakers around to attain a respectable I can enjoy. Not everyone, especially dyed in the wool stereo listeners have the knowledge, nor the tools, or room, etc,to achieve what you have, and this blog could kick start exploring/improving their hi-fi/sound. There are other bits that are useful, at least it confirmed for myself that there are things that he mentioned which resonated with me, that i experienced and achieved. Again,as in my byline : not everything measurable….:) [/QUOTE]
