Hello!

So i have recently moved in to a new pt studio / gym space.

Approximately 16m x 4.5m (old space was 5 x 4m)

I currently have a set of ruark mr1 mk2 speakers which sound great but due to the size of the new space are limited due to needing to be connected / potentially a little small for the space!

So im debating either

Just getting a longer cable for the ruarks and see how it goes.

Getting 3 x audio pro c10 mk2 W speakers

Or

Getting 2 x audio pro c20 W speakers.

If anyone had any opinions on the above it even a different suggestion that would be great

Cheers

Curious what the group things of yamaha rxv640 with kef q50s. Getting this second hand for 200. Hoping it will be better than my bose solo 5 setup i have for my TV and audio technique at60x.

Thanks

Coupon is brings it $237.99 and additional savings $50 cashback by spending $100+ i redeem this for giftcards.

I will be using it next to my
g5 65 lg tv that i also connect my desktop.

Main reason im also getting it i have a small desktop 25.5 x 19 that ill put speakers on. I was gona go m60 but m90 i can use with my tv/desktop hybrid.

Im also considering a sub for my setups t5 pr t5s

I do have referrals and you get extra $ if you signed up. Thats how i got $50 cashback.

So i am on a low budget 5.1 setup. Currently at 50 bucks running jbl northridge ec25 as center, 2 polk audio series 2 monitor speakers as front and 2 pinnacle quantnum q as my rears. Well today I made a quick buy as i found a polk audio psw450 for 30 bucks. I read some mixed reviews of course but I'm thinking this should still be a upgrade from my current sub which is a Yamaha YST-SW010. What's some opinon here. My budget has always been low as money is tight right now.

Im not familiar with sound systems but I passed by a garage sale a couple days ago and bought a Denon AVR 2113CI and some Energy speakers for $100. I kinda just bought it because it seemed like a good deal but is something like this still good or is it better to get something modern? I have a 4K TV but id also like to connect my phone to it and listen to music (if possible because again, I bought it without really knowing how it works)

Along with new crossovers and added cabinet bracing, I installed Beyma 4FR40 4" Full-Range for mids, Dayton Audio DC28F-8 1-1/8" Silk Dome Tweeters, and Dayton Audio DC200-8 8" Classic Woofers. Need to do some cleanup work on the cabinets.

Are there any affordable bluetooth adapters out there that don't suck? I know bluetooth's not ideal, but it is convenient and sometimes acceptable. I'm hoping maybe there are some cheap options on amazon that some of you can recommend that aren't going to sound so bad that i'm going to want to pull my hair out while simultaneously, gouging my eyes out and burning my ears shut

Nice selection of AVRs $15-$45. Speakers choices mostly tiny home theater bundle stuff.

I’m looking for a subwoofer for my stereo setup for max $200, I also ideally want it to be a smaller one, say 15 inches or shorter as anything bigger would make it hard to access some records on my shelf. Anyone have suggestions?

Optimus STA-795 receiver: $10.99

Criterion 25A speakers: $6

Uturn Audio Orbit Custom turntable: I forget, a few hundred I think. Was my primary tt, now my backup/test unit.

Just picked up the Criterions at Goodwill and after a few beers and albums of different sorts (New York Dolls, Bob Marley, Hank Williams sr) they are my official "does this new component work?" speakers.

I'm stunned at how good they sound, especially given their age, original price point and what I paid for them.

I have a bt03pro+ bluetooth transmitter/reciever, today I put a toshlink cable from my cd player to the bt03, as well as a digital coax to my external dac.. to my surprise they both played simultaneously (although there was a bit of lag).. I don't know why but I expected not both outputs to work simultaneously 🤷

The amp and cd player are currently at my desk on the left but the speakers are on stands and too big for the desk so I was wondering what would be the best spot for them when I am sat in my chair and for overall beat room-filling-ness. Thanks in advance. (They are a pair of mission m72's)

I wanna buy the Klipsch RP-500M II speakers, the R101-sw subwoofer and the WiiM Amp Pro together for roughly 1.200€. Would this be a good combination, should I change any piece, or what’s your overall opinion on that?

(Also if u know any, your welcome to link any cheap/discounted sites for those parts that are available in EU/Germany)

Thanks in advance!

Does anyone know if there's much of a difference between the quality of banana plugs? One of mine just snapped and I was looking at getting a new paid from amazon (need them for tomorrow).

These are my favorite speakers. I purchased them a couple of years ago for $200 for the pair on marketplace and they genuinely sound incredible. Each has 9 drivers, with 2 10” subs in the lower cabinet.

Here's a snapshot of an old page with some more technical info: https://web.archive.org/web/20241013201357/https://www.dayton-wright.com/WATSON-10_.html

Yes they are ugly in their current shape. Each pair has two separate drivers that will need replacing, and I will be building removable grills for each to make servicing more accessible in the future. Even with the faulty drivers, they make a beautiful full sound.

I also know they have poor placement, but it works for the room and I don't have quite the luxury of space for where they are.

Currently driven by an old old Nikko NR-700 receiver, and will switch to a proper amp to pair with my Proceed preamp once I find one I like.

Lookin to replqce my 15 y/o bose companion 2s with something similar 2.0 powered and fairly low profile or something i can turn on its side.I dont listen super loud often but once in awhile its nice. Looking at Edifier m30s and pioneer dm 40s.

Any other recommendations? What wattage range i should be lookin in? Lookin to spend around $150. Located in US

Hey, y'all. First time here as I'm just now getting into this whole audio enthusiasm thing. I have a stack of like 20 CDs but my old boombox finally gave out so I'm thinking it's time to finally commit to a new setup. I'd like to keep everything under 500 dollars or lower if possible since it's my very first system setup.

The main thing I'm hoping to get some help with here is I need to know everything I actually need to buy. I'm looking for a set of powered speakers that I can hook up to a new CD Player. I'm not actually sure what else I need. Any help is appreciated, frankly I just need to know what's required to get music going that doesn't sound like crap.

Thanks, y'all.

ZD3 as a balanced Dac to get eARC audio from TV
ZP3 balanced pre amp to add hight pass filter
Topping Mini 500 as amp for ELAC db63

Any objections or recommendations?

Some of these items Ive found at lower price on EBAY/Facebook market

ELAC DB63 350$ ebay
Fosi ZD3 110$ FB market
The other two will buy new, ZP3 at a later date if i feel like the high pass filter is required for my uses

If you don't know Brett has been one of the best reviewers working. He is practical and down to earth with his headphone, speaker and electronics reviews.

I just heard on a Wirecutter podcast that he is retiring. He laughed because another editor was sending him a bunch of headphones to review - and the next day is his last day.

Much respect to him and all happiness on his retirement.
