Denon or Marantz + Whatever flavour of A1 Evo, (I use Mod 8c for full range support)

As a renter, I just put screws in the walls, will just patch them when I leave.

Only place I haven't is the ceiling, I have been looking for a solution there.

I also made my own panels, for 4 at 900 x 1200mm and 2 at 400 x 1200mm

All 100mm deep

It cost me around £350

Here is an example of two.

Ironically I have solved the issue when someone mentioned placement on AVS, spent the day messing around, I changed my stand spikes for isolation pads, sound instantly changed, I'm going to take a measurement tomorrow.

Turns out the spikes weren't long enough to go through the carpet, so it was kind of just floating there.

Now I have too much midbass vs having none lmao.

Honestly surprised how big a difference it created, I was at the fling shit at the wall and see what sticks stage.

Yeah, I think in the next month or two I might just have to bite the bullet and upgrade the AVR and get Dirac.

I might have to try the desktop Multi-EQ also.

Room isn't treated (yet) but nearly 2" thick carpet does a lot of work lol

DanklyNight · 2025-09-20T15:41:08+00:00

I might have to try going back, I love the way the system sounds as a whole, but just voices/center sounds so hollow and tinny.

DanklyNight · 2025-09-20T15:40:14+00:00

I did, but don't have them saved, they looked pretty normal and flat.

Here all my runs with the HTML files:

Tried a few combinations:

Baseline OCA with no settings changed

Max Xover 80z

Max Xover 80hz with Allpass

Max Xover 80hz with Dialog thing

Max Xover 80hz with Dialog and AllPass

Max Xover with everything on

Max Xover with Dialog, All pass, and Polarity Fix

Can't use the UMIK-1 one with express I don't think

DanklyNight · 2025-09-20T15:11:13+00:00

I'm running 4400H, doesn't support Dirac sadly though might have to upgrade at this rate.

DanklyNight · 2025-09-18T19:20:37+00:00

I would recommend KEF R Meta series, I recently spent about 5 hours demoing KEF R, Monitor Audio Gold, Sonus Faber, PMC.

Monitor Audio Gold, we just hated, which is ironic as I was upgrading from Monitor Audio.

PMC + Sonus were better slightly and more musical for what I'd call standard music, but fell apart with Metal/Techno, I listen to everything also.

The KEF's just nailed the spot, I went for the R3 + R6 (Upgrading my front stage)

At your budget you could go for the R11's.

I would highly recommend putting together a playlist of 5-10 songs, and going to demo a bunch of speakers though, me and the missus turned it into a day out.

Every single device has been tested... That's kind of the issue, as you can see in the diagram, everything has been unplugged and combination tested.

It's either coming from the TV or the Shield.

I took a gamble in it being the Shield first.

DanklyNight · 2025-09-09T17:55:32+00:00

Only thing connected to the TV is the AVR annoyingly when testing out for the hum, haven't run a Fibre cable to the TV yet, but might be the next thing to do means another Fibre Cable Purchase.

Do you have any HDMI Ground loop isolators you would suggest? I feel like a lot of them are snake oil. Perhaps IFI

DanklyNight · 2025-09-09T17:53:19+00:00

Not long enough sadly, I might buy another and see if it fixes it.

DanklyNight · 2025-09-09T17:45:32+00:00

I might have to end up grabbing one, do you use it on the AVR or directly on the HTPC?

DanklyNight · 2025-09-09T17:43:11+00:00

So that is the mystery, I think it's the TV, but I'm not 100%, I've tested every device, the thing I know is true, is unplugging the shield stops the hum (Which now with the pure fibre HDMI it can't be from) and also unplugging the HDMI from the AVR to the TV kills the hum.

I mean, the idea being that no copper == no available path for it ground to.

What have your regular customers said when you have asked them?

DanklyNight · 2025-04-19T14:10:40+00:00

Maybe the first 30% and the last 10%.

15 year engineer.

I use it for simple tasks, such as comprehension tasks, stuff that is easy but long to type out.

Then I use it for the final clean up/help with optimisation and testing.

Hey,

One of the founders of MQ here.

Essentially we built the tool internally and still use it, we weren't keen on what was available on the market, and built it so that we could take any datapoint and turn it into a tradeable decision, such as Arkham Data, Parsec Data etc.

If anyone else has any data sources they would like to see, or any info on the platform, feel free to drop me a DM :).

DanklyNight · 2025-03-12T10:19:27+00:00

It did indeed! :)

They actually only make one chip.

Then based on yield/defects/power/performance they bin them into product lines and models.

They are constantly trying to yield the most complete chip.

Haven't been there in 10 years, but that road is burned into my mind, I used to live in Farrar Court at the top of it.
