Re: Playground for practical listening exercises

There’s got to be something wrong with your LP12 John. A Technics 1200 isn’t even as musical as a Rega 3, never mind an LP12! What makes you think the Technics is musical Spannko? Can you rephrase your question please? It makes no sense to me in light of any of the preceding comments. You said the ...

Re: JBL 3677

Hi guys, as a potential alternative to 3677s I came across these speakers from Canada: https://www.thehereticspeaker.com/a612 The interesting thing is that they use a serial crossover similar to Klangedang. They are brand new and are sold directly from the factory in Montreal. ..and what do the Kla...

Re: Two clips to compare

How warmed up was the 7.1?? Both were cold and plugged in about a minute before being recorded. When one was playing music, the other was completely unplugged from everything, including mains. Have we had burn-in clips yet ? It would be great to have burn-in demonstrated via clips Fredrik .I know y...

Re: Two clips to compare

Struggled to hear any meaningful difference,if pushed I'd go for 1 for the emotion in the trumpet playing and we got to hear Johnny Hogdes part 😄. Initially maybe 2 had a bit more swing (ooops!). Couldn't resist .

Re: Playground for practical listening exercises

BBB gets my fingers snapping. If the difference is between google drive and dropbox then dropbox (BBB) wins. If there is something else different there are two differences which makes the comparison less worthwhile. Nope, that's it in a nutshell and I thought I would share the links/results thinkin...

Re: JBL 308P and 708P

the faint hum is still there - but I can hear it only if I put my ear close to the bass driver. The noise of the HF unit is also still there and I can hear it at my listening position but I can live with that too. But thats all with the Akurate DS connected as only source (I am missing one power so...

Re: JBL 308P and 708P

yes I did and I didn’t enjoy it as much. My conclusion is now when the bass is not tamed enough it might be not the optimal position. I positioned them now more far away from each other and the bass problems are away and the slight harshness in the upper frequencies also. Moved from them from 1.45M...

Re: JBL 308P and 708P

Jajo you say most bass problems come from non perfect positioning of speakers. What is your experience when you have a „seem to be perfect“ distance from the wall which is very musical but bass boomy. Is there another distance from the wall which is musical but without the bass boominess? Or does t...

Re: JBL 308P and 708P

Maybe my imagination but LSR308 looks better than 708P ... The Price is Right, certainly, or would you like to spin again? They do look different. 308P looks/feels cheaper but less "boxy" and "PRO". I like them both but prefer the CF driver and bass driver of 708P. And the weight. I was referring t...
