Season's greetings to you and your family. My siblings from abroad are in town so yes, still enjoying Christmas. We will be capping the year at Subic. Perhaps it is a happy new year by the time you red this.

Sir may napansin akong Schiit... ano yun?

Gino · « **Reply #122 on:** Mar 25, 2014 at 10:18 AM »

Initially I used the Schiit Asgard as a preamp. Iyon kasi ang gamit ko na line driver sa t-amp. That sounded very good. Then I later I noticed that the 2a3 amp had a very high gain. The gain knob did a good job with a lot of headroom. So I removed the Schiit Asgard from the system.

Signal chain now:

Netbook--->ODAC--->2a3 amp--->speakers--->sub

Salamat. Enjoy ako dito. My sanctuary. Kape. Rubik's cube. Music.

Very nice minimalist set-up!

On lazy Sunday mornings when Morato Ave is sleeping, solid ang kinig.

Oks sir salamat. Ang ganda talaga ng room mo. Calm and inviting ang dating

Kailangan talaga calm. Hypertensive ako he he. But managing it without meds by running, strict diet, and stress management.

Hi Gino, your room looks really good, I can just imagine relaxing there with some good sounds before work.

Very nice room indeed!

Gino · « **Reply #134 on:** Oct 28, 2015 at 03:56 PM »

What a difference speaker orientation and height makes. More robust and stable bass images from a 10" sub. Overall imaging improved although in mini scale.

Very nice and very neat room brader....

Salamat sa mga puri. Ang babait ninyo!

Interestingly the fostex FE167E sound better horizontal than vertical in this room. Doing so puts the port on the same horizontal plane as the drivers, lowers the speaker height, and moves the main speaker and supertweeters outward. Dunno which did what but it sounds very good. Solid drum kits.

Low bass is my remaining issue apart from the usual untreated room peaks. It is disappointing with EDM.
