I'm no master woodworker by any means, but when I had MMGs I made some solid oak "T" stands out of 2x2 and painted them black to match. They probably raised them up by about 10 inches. Gave a taller image but you may lose a little bass.

@prosnowboarder I have a very similar system as yours. The Aegir is all the amp you need. Adding another one to run mono will make it play slightly cleaner and with a little more impact but then you lose the magic and sweetness of the single Aegir. both of my main speakers that get the most use...

And the abuses of 100+ years ago have been eliminated through other labor laws and market conditions. I'm of the opinion that Milton Friedman and Dr Thomas Sowell are correct. Get rid of minimum wage. It prices low/no skill jobs out of the market that could be filled with mentally or physically...

Had a pair for a Lyr 1. They didnt sound bad, they just didnt sell enough to keep them around.

While I can sometimes tell a difference between some analog RCA cables. I can't say that I've ever detected any differences in the balanced XLR cables I've tried.

So if it takes about a day to properly setup and take measurements on a single piece of gear, then a certain "science based" audio site that measures 2-3 products in a day - by one person..... Is doing it wrong.

My theory...Many US bars have one or more large refrigeration units that they use to store and dispense all of the beers they have on tap. So the fridge units will be set at a colder temp to accommodate everything else. To save money they probably don't want to have dedicated units just for...

I'd always heard that joke with "And the Priest said", preceding the rest.

Upgradeable DAC features are cool, but it's not like taking apart the Yggdrasil and reassembly is a 5 minute job. So something like different selectable DAC flavor modes would be cool for a one time installation, but then there would probably need to be a faceplate upgrade as well. Honestly...

The Cornwall is so easy to drive I wouldn't even bother with bi amping. I've hears a lot of Cornwalls over the decades and running 3-4w continuous with 10w peaks will be LOUD. A single Aegir is all you'll ever need.

You just described how some people feel about many Beyer models. The problem is not the Asgard

You guys that have the latest Pi4.... Are you using the optional heatsinks on it? Maybe the latest firmware makes them not necessary? I still have a few Pi3's...I've been using one with the Digi + (or Pro, can't remember) HAT on it and it's worked well via coax out. Although my next step was to...

ESP-950 doesn't have that huge treble spike in the 6k range that everyone tries to "fix" in the HD800.

Guys, quit feeding the Awdiyo Sy-ence Revu troll.

A few things to keep in mind about reviews from this "other forum". The guy measures stuff that is inaudible and doesn't matter. The guy gets measurement results that other measurement wizards can't seem to duplicate. The guy loves and recommends cheap chi-fi because by his methodology, it...
