yes thats it it was a download of a rare eminem freestyle

how do i increase the bitrate? i was under the impression once its lowered you cant get the quality back.

the cdda sounds like it came straight from the studio whereas the np30 streamed file sounds flat and a bit quiet in comparison. im using a wired connection for the np30 but its such a low bitrate im sure thats not an issue

the track in question that i tested had a bit rate of 192 and its an mp3 its a low quality freestyle by eminem i havent burned any other media apart from this so havent compared higher bit rates or lossless formats

np30 SQ is much less than CDDA burned from same source? how can i fix this? i have ca 752bd ca 551r and ca np30 with bx2's as front stereo the sound from the np30 sounds flat compared to the cdda disc i burned from the same source

yes i know its size issue all over again im looking at the jbl charge its the cheapest of the 3 speakers i was looking at. i dont want to spend much more than this its only for when i take a bath so it doesnt need to be great SQ but listenable i dont want to buy a £10 ebay speaker that would be...

i have bought numerous Bluetooth dongles for my pc in the past and none have worked for whatever reason unfortunately. i have come across a couple of viable options: 1. an Android tablet or phone with battery powered speaker. With the BubbleUPnP app you can turn the Android device into a...

i want to listen to music in the bathroom, in the uk there are no mains in the bathroom and i dont want to run an extension cord in as this is in violation of my tenancy agreement not to mention dangerous. must be battery operated! so ideally im after a battery powered wireless speaker that can...

im going to try ask this question here as you know my current equipment, i want to listen to music in the bathroom, in the uk there are no mains in the bathroom and i dont want to run an extension cord in as this is in violation of my tenancy agreement not to mention dangerous. so i am left...

wow at what price bracket, and when does it get to the point where you cannot buy a system that sounds better than the one that came before it

yes it can get expensive for sure is there such a thing as Amp/speaker ratio? do you think i should spend more on the amp and less on the speakers? whats your opinion?

you live and you learn, so if i buy the Rotel RB1582 Stereo Power Amplifier considering the equipment i already own and maybe the xsp-1 gen2 what is the absolute top price should i spend on speakers is £4000 over that price was looking at the ACOUSTIC ENERGY REFERENCE 3 SPEAKERS from superfi...

i have just spent £150+ on some CHORD CARNIVAL SILVER SCREEN SPEAKER CABLE what gauge is that? i dont want to buy new cables again

my L&R are quite far from my system 12ft and 14ft will i need a balanced amp?

yes im going to get either the USP or the XSP gen 2 of course i would prefer the xsp-1 gen 2 but first im going to buy an amp im going to get the ROTEL RB1582 POWER AMPLIFIER i know its powerful but i will be careful with it then i will save up and i will upgrade my L&R and put my bx2's at the...

its not pointless i will be looking at getting one of these XSP-1's gen 2 or something similar i like the sound of it. would i need to pair it with the XPA-1 or XPA-2 OR could i use any power amp? IF I COULD USE ANY POWER AMP WOULD IT HAVE TO BE BALANCED LIKE THE XPA-2? i dont care if its only...

90% of my music is stored on my pc in flac or mp3(only when i cant get a flac copy) so i use my np30 controlled through jriver media centre 19 for 90% of my listning. just thought i should add this info sorry i left it out

why do you have 2 cd players both the Marantz SA-8004 for SACD and Emotiva ERC-3 for CD ? surely one would do also when watching movies do you hook your system up to an avr? i assume you keep this set-up of yours separate and hook up an avr when watching movies? ​and finally should the speakers...

now im a bit confused because you are advising me to get the XSP-1 -preamp and an amp but schan1269 said buying a preamp is a waste of money as the 551r is a preamp. what should i do guys

sorry schan1269 i didnt mean to offend you yes you are correct it does say 7.1 preamp out i was looking at the description and it didnt mention that the avr has a pre amp function i couldnt find any reference to a preamp in any reviews either. wouldnt a power amp like the rb1552 give a better...

my avr doesnt have a pre amp

what about the ROTEL RB 1582 MKII POWER AMPLIFIER [edit] thats too much power what about the rb1552 mkII DO I NEED A PRE AMP ASWELL AS THE POWER AMP?

thanks i see your point theres no point getting the 851 if im only using one feature can you recommend some high quality power amps?

not all amps are created equal the 851 is known to be of exceptional sound quality and thats why i was looking at that one this is the thread i was reading where i got this idea: http://www.stereo.net.au/forums/index.php?/topic/50067-cambridge-audio-651r/ post #11 by RF Calais but the thread...

to get better stereo quality apparently the avr isnt great at 2 channel stereo so adding the 851a will give me a much better 'music' stereo sound. someone showed me this: http://www.whathifi.com/video/how-to-add-hi-fi-to-your-home-cinema

i was looking a thread comparing the ca 651r the ca 751r and the ca 851a as i am looking to significantly upgrade my system. i have just invested in the bx2's and the matching centre. what i concluded from the discussion was that instead of getting rid of my 551r i could pass the 551r through...

thanks for the reply JohnRice i understand now do you think i would be better off having one hdmi to the tv via hdmi 1 making use of the Marvell QDEO video processor and the other to the receiver?
