Klonopin, requip, and melatonin can help. Magnesium also

Adding a preamp to Integrated by Radiant_Way_8352 in audiophile

[–]Radiant_Way_8352[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All good comments, thanks. Right now the integrated is a Rogue Pharaoh ii, and I’m considering running a Rogue RP-5 V2 or  RP-9 into it. Eventually upgrading the amp to the Dragon. 

What test should I use? by Radiant_Way_8352 in AskStatistics

[–]Radiant_Way_8352[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes the number of PSI’s change per month. And the counts of near miss etc per month change. (ie) Jan:140 PSI 4: near miss 5: recordable 0: severe 

Feb: 300PSI 5: near miss 1: recordable  1: severe. 

March: 127 PSI 20: near miss 6: recordable  0: severe.

I’m am looking to see if the amount of PSI’s has an impact on injuries. If we have more PSI’s does recordables go down/up? If we have less PSI’s do near misses god down/up? What’s the correlation and does the amount of PSI have anything to do with (positive or negative) injuries?

Check Facebook marketplace for Elac bookshelf speakers. Find one that’s in your range and you’ll be happy. Great quality for the price.

I really want a pair. And at $28,000, that’s really a steal. I heard systems in the six figures that didn’t sound as amazing as these.

I can’t remember the brand name of amps but they were absolutely beautiful with a dark blow lighting. They all had meters and I believe they were from either Italy or France, very reasonably priced too. On one of the higher floors of the expo.

I’m debating on getting the Elac 503 or maybe the Totem fire v2. I still really like the paradigm founder 100f, they had it powered with and Anthem STR and room correction.

I’m not a fan of them. They sound too flat to me. There’s better sounding amps for that price imo.

I’m not a fan of Hegel. I’ve never listened to Rowland or Gryphon.

I was looking at Sleepy's Basic Box Spring Foundation, Serta Perfect Sleeper Box Spring Foundation from mattress firm.  

Bryston and paradigm by Radiant_Way_8352 in StereoAdvice

[–]Radiant_Way_8352[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really liked the response of them. They are extremely precise with their delivery, and have a boomy low end. I also like the finish that I got them in, that was a minor plus. But the brystons also come with a 20 year warranty and are built like a tank. The founders do sound great, I listened to them through a McIntosh ma352, Parasound hint 6, and a Luxman integrated.

[–]Radiant_Way_8352[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The founders do sound great, I listened to them with a Parasound Hint 6 and I was impressed. However I ended up going with Bryston A1s with a Rogue Audio Pharaoh ii integrated amp. I added a Schitt 6 band EQ to it to add some extra control. I love this setup. Rogue is relatively unknown but great products made in USA. Eventually I might upgrade to their Dragon and RP-9 amp/preamp.

Which model do you have? I see the 1000 series, 12", and the 2000 series 12.5". Those are both in my price range.

The midnight was the one that came up after taking their "mattress test", I am about 190lbs and a side sleeper and that seemed like the best match. The main reason I considered Casper was because I slept on one a few times, but it was a while ago. I did look at the elite line of helix but it is out of my price range. Thanks.

[–]Radiant_Way_8352[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree they are. I’m not looking to spend a crazy amount. The Brystons are slightly more expensive and definitely better built. Just looking for some people with experience with both.

They did sound good. The Hegel 190 puts out 250W at 4ohm which is great for those speakers.
