    Review by 'Skwalker' on item 'PSB Alpha PS1 Powered Speakers'

    Outstanding pair of computer speakers. The mid-bass punchiness is much better than I imagined. However, the two main speakers are not capable of handling deep bass-- this is where the sub-woofer would come in handy -- it'd perfect this speaker set by compensating for its only weakness - deep...

    DA&T AC Filter Impression

    If I can be sure that all speakers of the same model produces the exact same hiss with just power connected and volume 0, non-standby mode,     and that the hissing noise sounds noticeably more audible in my house than at the dealer's shop,  is this enough to narrow down the cause of the hiss?

    DA&T AC Filter Impression

    Thanks for your reply!!   Which kind of noise is EMI and RF interference on the power?   Is it usually consistent "hissing" sound (not low frequency humming)?  Does it persist with all signal input disconnected and volume turned down to 0?

    Thanks again for your replies!!   The noise he's experiencing is "pure hiss", no low frequency hum. It is noticeable even 2 meters or so away in his room.  He says when sleeping with it running, it literally sounds like it's blowing air continuously (until it finally went into standby mode)...

    Does this AC filter help reduce the white noise caused solely by power connection (not by sound source input at all)?

    For 1),  the hissing persists exactly the same manner even when all volumes are turned to 0.   For 2), that sub came with a 2-prong power cable (no ground).  This is so for most electronics in our country.   Can these still be the problem?

        Thanks for your reply!!   Could I ask another question?   I was trying out the PSB Alpha PS1 + PSB SubSeries 100  at my friend's house. I discovered that the PSB SubSeries 100 (subwoofer) consistently have a hissing sound that can clearly be heard even more than 5 feet away in a quiet...

    [PSB Alpha PS1 + PSB Sub 100] vs. [Aktimate Mini+]

    [PSB Alpha PS1 + PSB Sub 100] (2.1) and [Aktimate Mini+] (2.0) cost around the same in my region.   Would it be possible if I could get a detailed comparison between the two packages from audiophiles point of view who has had experience with both? (I'm not an audiophile here, just very...
