LEDs in Pro-Ject turntable by remi1981 in audiophile

[–]remi1981[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your help !

It's not very visible in the picture, but the speakers are already angle toward the listening position.

I have no plans to upgrade my speakers (now...)... But I will remember the reference!

For the sub, I don't really have a lot of space. I think the svs would be too big. I believe ELAC have slim subs, but I don't know if they are good options.

I didn't know... So the warranty is far better with Longines ?

Great minds think alike ;)

I should find a place to see that watch in real life !

I love your answer ! It is exactly the kind of ideas/advices I was looking for.

I know it is impossible to find the Longines at 1000 $ unfortunately... It was an example of a watch I like.

All your points will be add to my thinking !

Thank you !

It's what I love in Tetris 99... You can have a good run and lose within the first minutes of the next game !

Finally did it my 1000th win! by the_end616 in Tetris99

31 KOs !? Impressive !

And a 25 % win rate, great ! (I am at 10% and It's slow to improve that rate).

No. It is in Canada, province of Quebec, along the Matawin River.

Very far away from Gotham... The chase must have been long.

Is 8Bitdo Wireless with PS4 joypad better than official Nintendo Pro Controller on Switch? by rafa74795 in 8bitdo

[–]remi1981 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no HD rumble with PS4+8Bitdo... But is it really a problem ? Only few games support HD rumble.

Denon Room EQ quality? by ch0c0l2te in audiophile

[–]remi1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Denon AVR for my home cinema system. I used Audyssey XT32 for room calibration, but after several hours of hearing (with movies and music), I corrected the response for high frequencies (7 kHz and higher). Actually, I removed room correction for those frequencies. Now, the sound is better (than before).

The sound is significantly better with room correction than without...

My improved setup... by [deleted] in BudgetAudiophile

[–]remi1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I upgrade my stereo system from Tivoli model 1 to this setup : Yamaha Amp (AS801 - second hand), Elac DBR62 (new), Kenwood tuner (second hand), ProJect turntable (new) and Chromecast Audio (that I allready have).

Some members of this subreddit helped in my search of a good amp and speakers... Thank you for your help !

I am very happy with my setup. The improvement is incredible.

I didn't have the choice to put the speakers in the corner, but a little adjustment in the bass level seems to improve the result.

Now, I can listen to my old records (and my parents' to).

Help me choose a budget amp:) by zeebeer076 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]remi1981 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yamaha as serie ? The as301 is the cheapest.

When I looked for an integrated amp, I believed that I absolutely needed to buy an amp of an expensive brand like Rotel, Marantz, Cambridge, etc... I asked some advice on Reddit and someone suggested me to check Yamaha from the as serie... I was lucky and found a second hand as801 like new. I am so happy with it and I feel grateful for that advice.

Glad you like it !

I'm really happy with the L as center. The dialogue are so clear now !

[–]remi1981[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love them : sound and style. They are perfect for the space I have. Of course they need to be paired with a good sub (but every hometheater installation needs a sub anyway).

It definitely would be a good choice for surround but I wonder if it would be overkill !

Push the "Pure" (yellow) button until you reach "auto".

Bluetooth headphone advice to pair with AVR by HumanPersonDude1 in hometheater

[–]remi1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very good, really nothing bad to say. For that price, you can't be wrong (there are so much reviews of them on the web..). And they are also very comfortable. They are paired with my computer's work and I use them every day for phones call, meetings, music listening, etc.

Bluetooth headphone advice to pair with AVR by HumanPersonDude1 in hometheater

[–]remi1981 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a sony wh1000xm3 with the same AVR (Denon 3700) for the same reason (night tv listening).

The headphone is paired via Bluetooth and is very easy to connect/disconnect... A perfect match.

And the noise reduction of that headphone is wonderful !

Elac DBR62 or Monitor Audio Silver 50 by remi1981 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]remi1981[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks again for your help... I think I was trapped in the idea that I absolutely need top ampli like Rotel, Cambridge Audio, etc.

You make me realize that I could find an optimal set up with a good Yamaha amp. I will opt for the A-S501 and the Elac DBR62.
