my new wharfedales diamond 12.2 owns it has a laid back and mellow, yet also amazingly layered and detailed sound even at a mere 50dB. its so physics defying

i also happen to have a new pair of Kali LP-6 v2s on a discount, based on the hype they got flat? yes detailed? yes non-fatiguing? yes boring? also yes yeah i know these are studio monitors but they lack the liveliness of my 305Ps and iLoud MMs for some odd reason

https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/topping-bc3-review-bluetooth-receiver-bt-codecs.23740/ Regarding Bluetooth quality, feel free to read that the tl;dr version is AptX surprisingly sucks (at least on the Topping BC3) versus the most basic SBC, and its highly unlikely you can notice a difference between the SBC and the best LDAC especially on speakers and you aren't <20 y/o. Unless you are purposely blasting 14.5KHz+ sound at levels way beyond normally mastered content

SweetMercifulCrap! posted:I don't know what the Bluetooth specs are, but with both my car system and my receiver, I can hear a difference between Bluetooth and a cable connection. The only thing that sounds the same is my Bluetooth headphones that can also be wired. you are probably hearing the spray of distortion spikes in the treble region where the ears are the most sensitive or the 14KHz brickwall lowpass with non LDAC implementations

my apartment is hard tiled and i live in it barefeet, so touching anything conductive that uses 2-pin AC and also isn't grounded somewhere else gives me a perfectly safe but annoying 120V shock

M_Gargantua posted:That's not how it's supposed to work. That's a red flag and a safety hazard that you're house is wired wrong, or your appliances are shorting out nah its perfectly safe because that's how the Y-capacitors of the EMI filter in 2-pin power supplies reject unwanted AC noise when operated without a ground connection even my $1500 LG C2 OLED does this HP, Dell, Lenovo, Apple etc all had advisories regarding their laptops with 2-pin power adapters saying the same thing. they wisened up and changed to 3-pin adapters anyway

CAPTAIN CAPSLOCK posted:And it's front ported so you can shove it right up against the wall if you need to. IIRC front ports can work anywhere true, but it doesn't address the speakers own inherent boundary LF gain by being placed close to a wall/corner which may be hard to fix even with EQ

KozmoNaut posted:I have a Fosi Audio V3 i replaced the 2x original NE5532s in mine with OPA2134PAs and it sounds clearer and i dont believe that's placebo since ASR guys tested the last budget amp king Aiyima A07 with the NE5532, LM4562, and the OPA2134 and the last one had the best overall SINAD as well as EMI rejection

Lamquin posted:Thanks for the advice! That took me down a really fun rabbit hole learning about Class D amps and the (for me) confusingly cheap variants out on the international market - albeit not in Swedish retail stores. there's is a very good chance you will never pump more than 2W per channel before it gets too loud for you

I got a Minirig 3 2.1 set used yesterday for office usage even on the the TWS/AptX mode the overall SQ IMO is only slightly worse than my Evo 4.2 + topping PA5 II + SMSL D6S, my mind is blown considering the overall cost and portability im not gonna bother with any fixed stereo hifi anymore

its hard to give a definite rec because speaker-room interactions are completely unpredictable used KEF, wharfedale, polk, energy are good bets
