Of course I'll borrow a demo unit first. I'm not gonna throw $2k away... Setting up a dedicated line for my system would be great, but right now, I won't be able to do that. Thanks for your advice anyway Happy

Yes, I hear good things about Pure Power 2000/1050, but they're not available in my country.

So far on my list:
- Shunyata Hydra V-ray
- MIT Powerbar

What's your experience in this area? I'm working on a shortlist of equipment to try in my system and would appreciate your recommendations.

Greets,
Marcin

Good idea, but wouldn't it be less accurate from current form?

Peter, don't you know that messing around with infrasounds could be dangerous?  grazy

BTW, here's an interesting link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_note  yahoo

Europe FTW!  very happy
263  Ultimate Audio Playback / Chatter and forum related stuff / Re: Schumann synchronizer on: August 22, 2010, 12:22:15 pm
Fair enough. I'll try one in my system.
264  Ultimate Audio Playback / Chatter and forum related stuff / Re: Schumann synchronizer on: August 21, 2010, 06:02:46 pm
I received mine yesterday. The verdict is still out on whether it makes a difference.

BUT... I did have a really good night's sleep!!!

Will report later with more thoughts...

Mani.

That is exactly what Srajan Ebaen wrote in his review. Sth has to be in it and it seems to be working...
Looking forward to your further thoughts, especially if there is any positive influence on A/V gear.

I play with PeakExtend on. I also lowered the buffer size to 1024 samples and found it richer. 4096 is great, but I think you need very powerful amp to get enough kick. So where am I? It seems that I made a circle and  went back to my initial best settings, only with different split size Happy

Sorry for bringing this up. Anyone else using remote with XXHE? If so, what model.
I'd appreciate your help

Yes it's thiner, but try the buffer size at 4096. This should make things better or not :D Maybe you will like the sound of lower values, it all depends on your system.
I wonder if I can have both - details and rich, powerful sound.
268  Ultimate Audio Playback / Your thoughts about the Sound Quality / Re: SQ of 09-z2 on: August 18, 2010, 12:30:10 pm
I went further and decreased the split size value to minimum, that is 12 MB and have to tell you that it is even better now. Beside the fact that the speed is great, the stereo went '3D', bass is tighter and more powerful. How could I be so wrong before. You have no idea (or maybe you do :D) how much time I've spend on fine-tuning the settings in XXHE prankster But it's good -best sound I've ever heard from my system  Happy

Peter, do you think it can improve further? I mean XXHE capabilities.

Another remark from my side:
I prefer Scheme-3 only with upsamling. Plain 16/44 sounds best with No-Scheme
270  Ultimate Audio Playback / Chatter and forum related stuff / Re: 16/44.1 vs. 24/176.4 on: August 15, 2010, 11:02:48 am
OK. 24/176 track is much better from the first seconds. It strikes you with wider soundstage with 'lot of air'. The sound is fuller, especially in the mid-range. (sax)
