Lineair power supply

but what types of music do you really listen to?
(it is easy to unbalance a budget system that is considered homogeneous .. the essential being what the acoustics of the room allows)
 
By the way..I remember the Attessa as a streaming amp. What is wrong with Bluesound?
I have the non streaming version. It has a dac which I use and bluetooth which is good but not lossless.So I prefer the mini over its bluetooth.
 
Ah, ok. I have in my big guns setup at home a Node X as Roon endpoint. For me it is absolutely perfect.
And the Bluesound app is even without Roon fantastic.
 
The restriction is that I cannot do anything related to room treatments and different speaker placement (at least currently).

1.classical music 2.audiophile stuff blues/jazz 3. 80s music 4.classic rock
 
If I would invite a specialist with instruments and parts for room correction my wife will finally call a psychiatrist. For me the cheap tricks with curtains, plants and little moves for the speaker must be enough. I do not want to live in laboratory. Even not for music 😉

So DSP is your friend but you have to identify weak points of your acoustic first - do measurements with the proper mic and software like REW. Or buy a room acoustic correction system like Dirac.

So if I buy something like mini dsp flex, can I use it to automatically measure the space with a mic and then apply eq to the sound, without having to insert parameters manually? Do I need to pay for dirac extra?

Dirac is the additional license paid in case of Flex, but you can think about miniDSP DDRC-22D which is out of the box Dirac digital processor.


Or miniDSP Flex "digital edition" with the additional Dirac license and UMIK microphone.
 
At least identification of L wire in the wall socket and wiring in the cable if detachable as L-N can be swapped inside. IEC 13/14 plugs/sockets have wire marking usually.
 
you have to do the check...
systematically..
;-)
but often this perceives very well ... without measurement of leakage ..
(and it just costs a modest voltmeter that can be very useful elsewhere ;-))

A recommendation, if you really believe in phasing. It is not so expensive, easy to use for people without a multimeter. Here in Germany most dealers lend it for a few days and few money. But you need a strong faith in voodoo. Or in ASR ;)

Additional: I believe strongly correct phase is important for safety. In all my hifi years I didn't notice a better sound quality.
 
there are sufficient multimeters for a few euros ...
and the manipulation in chaining is interesting...
and the tensions often observed are edifying.
it is much more meaningful than not new phase observation devices..
like "pencils etc"..
it's not new..
was quite normal that we create "audiophile" products for this modest observation..
hihi
 
It's not a matter of believing. A phase order can affect the audio chain even in audible manner sometimes.
My SMPS ncore amp measures differently when phases are swapped. It's not audible but perfectly visible with a proper measurement instrument.

I find that very often it is heard...

but OK..
just remove this strip and do the phases...
is not "consumption push"


asr?:cool:
 
I only want to listen to music. If one wants to look at graphs instead...ok.
The essence for me in the post above is "It's not audible!"
So why?? Perfectly visible satifies me in art. For music my preferences are different. And I am confident that I had missed a lot of fantastic gear if I looked at graphs before. I think in this point we are living in different galaxies. But thanks heaven it is enough space for all of us.
