OK that's cool, Empty99. I think we are in danger of agreeing :0) My particular focus is on getting a speaker/system that handles the dynamics and detail properly. There seems to be a trade-off between dynamics/ detail vs. flat freq response. Up to a point I can correct frequency response (which is an artefact of the speaker in a given room, not just the speaker alone) using DRC. However, there is nothing that can re-create lost/altered dynamics or detail. The search goes on... -- Phil Leigh ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Phil Leigh's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=85 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=30820 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
