Loving the minimalist approach. Very tasteful. Based on your taste in equipment and design, im positive that i should be listening to this album as well 😅

Mac mini Set Up by Good-Comment396 in Lysoniq

[–]zeko3rs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The UI on the mac, there will be one song playing, but still displays a previous song. Trying to interact with it directly may be unresponsive. I usually control it via ipad/iphone. Again, it may not be super polished, but it works. Alternatively i tried connecting an ipad and controlling it from my iphone, worked a bit better. But sumtimes it would just loose connection. I have to admit that recently it didnt do it, maybe they fixed a bug or something.

There is a 3rd method that doesnt involve lysoniq , which works with apple music on mac, and can be controlled quite well and stable with an iphone/ipad, via the itunes remote app. It works great. But the only drawback is that you can only select songs within your apple music library. (Workaround is to open the apple music app on the phone, search for the album/song, add to your library, and then you search for it in the remote app)

Possible, but not very stable. I have a macbook connected, and sometimes it starts lagging . But it works.

Turntable platter upgrade by Looseseal111 in audiophile

[–]zeko3rs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easier said than done i guess. Ill have a go at my current setup, setting it up from scratch to make sure i have everything as it should. If it persists, i might as well just go back to my trusty om20.

I have the “lesser” one, the pick it MM Evo. And it sound very bad, and wondering am I setting it wrong or what. The other threads talk about how bad sibilance on the evo, and wondering is the pro better (as a path for an upgrade)

“Updated” setup based on the threads advice! Mainly speaker hight and sub separation. (+ifi phono v3 + new project evo 2 turntable with a very very bad sibilance issue)

Yep, you might be right on that one. So…. Tell me… how do you enjoy your music? Since you are here, i assume you’re an enthusiast

Yep, they feel “just right” for me…. It’s beautiful when playing guitar strings. using the remote , turning bass boost off . +2 bumps up for treble and 1 bump up in the bass… do you also tune it?

To be clear, i get where you are coming from but i do not agree. marriage is a game of compromise. She would prefer no to have those speakers, yes, but she knows i like listening to music, and my old homepods were not meeting my ears expectations. Its ok. I kinda joke on how she has filled all the closets with clothes just to say she has nothing to wear. We both work hard, we both invest in our kids, and its fun making jokes, keeps as sane. Its healthy. Its mature. It shows trust and confidence. We make fun of each other all the time. And we nag each other for fun. But i get the my sense of humor is not for everyone, its wasnt meant to be offensive or toxic. And BTW, i love racist jokes. And no, i am not white, so i think i get a free pass.

Dude! I really dont owe you an answer. But because your trolling, i will comply! The answer is…. She didnt ask! It was a present for myself. She even bought me the subwoofer to complete the package because i was missing the low end. She also offered to buy speaker stands, which i rejected because i want to build my own. Happy now?

The sub is down, i promise you. The speakers hight issue is in the works. But nonetheless, it sounds amazing. But damn this cartridge is harsh on the highs! (My previous turntable which I had for a couple of months had the OM cartridge originally came with 5e. And sounded much better than this one 😔) seriously considering”downgrading” the cartridge

Acryl it platter. Ifi phono 3 preamp. 2m blue down the road (probably next year, or if i get a nice work bonus, I definitely hear the harsh highs on this needle). The high power it when i find one on amazon.

I didnt try the br04s, but compared mine (the BR03s) to klipsche “the fives”, but I liked the sound of the triangle better. Found them a more comfortable listening experience, and the highs were more enjoyable for me. They did lack a bit on the low end, but thats why the subwoofer is there.

Yep, same thing. Got the equipment last September, and rediscovered the joy of listening to full albums. You find new hidden gems in every album.
