Didn't dbx have a dynamic range expander?

The 1bx from the 1980's?

I remember one from the 1973/74 timeframe.

That brings back fond memories. I sold a few of these in my audio sales hey-day (late 70's early 80's).

Tyr? Me thinks large speakers, large room, lots of space.

(Im)-patiently waiting for the Aegir 2 Chapter so here's an album discovery:

John DeVore recently reviewed and recommended an album on his YT channel and I gotta say, it's the best thing he's recommended so far. I hopped over to Bandcamp to check it out and didn't even make it through the second track before I was ordering the LP.

Vividly exciting combo of a very unusual duo of bass clarinet and electric cello. These are joined by other instruments in a predominantly modern jazz-ish mishmash of rhythms and melodies. It's got some killer deep bass notes and everything that goes up the frequency range from there. Seriously fun stuff here.

But the real pièce de résistance is the last track, a sublime performance of Bill Evans' 'Peace Piece', one that makes the LP purchase warranted all on its own. Cheers!

I wish I have a larger room haha, but right now I only have a desktop setup, so only considering bookshelf speakers on desk

I remember dbx expanders from the 80's. A quick Google sees that they are still around and at reasonable prices.
Of course, it's still an added-on electronic processor.

Listening to this on Tidal right now. 1/2 way through the first track and it's great. Thanks for the recommendation!

I would first think about the kind of music you listen to and choose a loudspeaker well suited to that. The Tyr should drive whatever you want to use with it.

edit: I recently aquired a pair of LS50 Metas from a nice gentleman who has developed tinnitus. In the same room as my Apogee Duetta Sigs, driven by a pair of Vidar Monoblocks, these guys are *very* impressive. But please put them on stands.....

you are going to need a bigger bookshelf.

Tyr for desktop listening?!? Wouldn’t Aegir be a better fit?
