    "re-clocking" the Ultra digital out ?

    You misunderstand me completely, I ˋm on your side. But if you dont wanna write about your system thats fine. If it sounds better, it is better nomatter what the measurements tells us. (Yes, some of the ASR fundamentalists are annoying, but not all of them.) I guess you also understand that a...

    "re-clocking" the Ultra digital out ?

    My advice is to always trust your ears. Even a product that might actually be worsening the signal ( such as a DDC with sample rate conversion ) can be perceived as a sound improvement. Any sample rate converted DDC will sound harder, thinner and less natural, but if your amplifier or/and...

    Introducing WiiM Sub Pro: Experience Bass Like Never Before

    1. The subwoofers tuning frequency (the port) ? 2. Tpa 3255 used as amplifier ? 3. lowpass crossover = 4:rth order (24db/oct ) ? 4. Spikes or rubber feets below the subwoofer ?

    Crossover with different slopes lowpass and highpass.

    LR 24 HP and LP is a very good option especially with crossovers above 300 Hz. When I made my Hybrid active dsp speaker I kept coming back to fourth order crossover between tweeter and midbass, as the best sounding option.

    Crossover with different slopes lowpass and highpass.

    Agree, its always the acoustical crossover slopes that matters, thats why THX crossovers 24/12 (electrical) is a rather good option because a closed box falls 12/dB oct below resonanse , without any crossover, and much less if the room has gain . But the best sounding crossover slope below 100...

    Crossover with different slopes lowpass and highpass.

    In English : Kaffekoppen wrote: There is no direct advantage with odd-order filters....the only difference is that they meet at -6db instead of -3db.... ———- Ingoehman: Well... First of all, odd-order functions preferably meet at -3 dB, while even ones meet at -6 dB (if you are aiming for a...

    Crossover with different slopes lowpass and highpass.

    Here you are : https://www.faktiskt.io/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=18368&hilit Its the genious constructor of Guru audio that has come to this conclusion, read his posts ( Ingoehman ).He also sells a crossover with 30/18dB slopes, Ino cr80. This is backed up by science , an odd order crossover...

    Crossover with different slopes lowpass and highpass.

    If I could wish - I would like switchable lowpass and highpass crossover between 36 dB butterworth, 24 linkwitz riley, 18dB butterworth, 12 dB butterworth, 12 dB linkwitz . I also wish that lowpass and highpass crossover could have different slopes to combine , so a closed box main speaker can...

    Which and when will the successor of the Wiim Ultra be released on the market?

    I think the Ultra already is a rather perfect product. The soundquality cant be bettered, not as a transport or as a streamer, unless you make it sound more ”analog” with some earfriendly colorations. That can already be done with an external colored dac of choice. I like the Ultra size, and I...

    Audiophile loudspeakers for the ultra with outstanding stereo image

    Steve Huff has made a review: Now, the fun thing is that everyone can buy those drivers, chn110 , pluvia11, or alpair 10.3 and build a DIY box for these - there are plenty of suggestion of cabinet sizes made by Markaudio.

    Audiophile loudspeakers for the ultra with outstanding stereo image

    I would suggest everyone to try out building a good single driver speaker. Yes, these have better holographic stereo image than every multidriver speaker I have heard. The passive ( and active ) crossovers in conventional loudspeakers muck up the sound and are never truly transparent. The...

    Ongoing Beta Beta Testing: Wireless Dolby 5.1 for WiiM Ultra

    It would be a 4.0 system. WiiM doesnt downmix the 0.1 channel and there is no center channel option. Only dolby digital. I would also check if there would be a latency issue with your LG oled. The surround processing option in the ultra has some delay, also using room correction has a certain...
