    Volume Control / Dirac / DAC Timing

    Very Interesting.. Variable meaning even If I had 2 Ares DACS the timing could be out.

    Volume Control / Dirac / DAC Timing

    Are you thinking at some point the volume will max out due to a glitch? If so what kind of fail-safe options are there for this? Thanks in advance.

    Volume Control / Dirac / DAC Timing

    Thanks for your feedback. First 2 responses confirm no issue with volume control at the SHD which is great to hear. Back to the timing question - I understand the digital signal to both DACS would be timed correctly by the SHD, however I wonder if the 2 dacs are not the same will there be any...

    Volume Control / Dirac / DAC Timing

    Good Day, Looking for some feedback on the below 2 option's. Mainly on the volume control in the digital domain vs analog. Also any feedback on timing issues between DAC's on option 1. Pros and Cons to both options - all feedback welcomed.

    KEF R3 Meta - My Experience

    Thanks again for all your help! Will spend the night listening. First few tracks in and most of the shoutiness and ugly sound is gone! a lot leaner sound now but I'm sure I can try and move the speakers closer to the wall to get some of that low end back - which I'm guessing would trigger...

    Also just to clarify - the balance L-1 = turn balance knob to the right adding re to the right speaker or turn it to the left?

    OK - So I re-did all the measurements for a new baseline and then made the adjustments above - See below. I tried to attach the REW file but the forum wont allow that format. Looks like they measured much different from the last time - I have not changed a thing other then using a different...

    I should clarify the dB levels I have been taking are simply off an app from my phone so they may be out to lunch. I did notice when I was using the DSP UMIK-1 mic and setting up REW pink noise to 77db (i believe) I was shocked how loud 77db was compared to listening to music and what my phone...

    I have not, but the Linton Heritage and the Polk R700 was on my short list but went with the R3.

    Agree - I tried the expensive DAC thing and probably won't realize the benefits of it until I get the room issues corrected. Would you suggest new amp with Dirac etc. or the "Real EQ" or both? What would be a good EQ product? Acoustic treatment has been designed by GIK but I have not pulled the...
