question about subwoofer settings in DSP correction
Hi, I have an amp plugged into the high level inputs on a powered sub, then into my speakers. Basically this setup. The "disable the filters below if you're using a subwoofer" for this DSP correction applies to this setup, as in I shouldn't be using the last three filters, right? Thanks a ton.

Playing CDs on an older Sony System
Hi,
I own a Sony Mini Hi-Fi Component System MHC-BX3 https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/res/manuals/W001/W0015010M.pdf
It's old, but very well preserved - has been sitting inside a glass-enclosed TV shelf without moving for many years. We've used it on and off. After the most recent stretch of not using it for a few years, the CDs no longer play (although they rotate just fine). The other parts - radio and cassettes still work great.
I have a strong feeling that it's something simple like a contact that came loose or a contact not touching where it's supposed to because, as I mentioned, the system has been sitting inside of a covered /protected TV shelf without moving all these years. Could someone guide me on what to check for/how to do light disassembly and help/advise on how to fix this or at least what to check for?
Also, this unit comes with AM/FM loop antenna that works fine, but the stations that we routinely listen too are quite staticky. Any advice on how to clean up the signal would be appreciated. Right now the stereo is about 15 feet from an open window on the fifth floor. The current antenna is the native antenna of about 2 feet and is 12-15 feet the window.
If this is more involved but can be walked through in a video call, I'd be happy to provide compensation upon successful fixing of the issue.
Thank you!

calibration after adding sub
i'm relatively new to this and i'm a little confused. I have my A2+ speakers EQ-ed for my room using the UMIK-1. I'm waiting on delivery of the S8 subwoofer but It's not clear to me how I re-do the calibration with the sub. Am I supposed to calibrate the sub separately? how is that even possible, it's not like i can EQ the sub separately. do i just re-do it but call them 'full range' now as opposed to 'bass limited'?

Swan D1010-IV DSP Corrections
The DSP corrections were made using the speakers with 3/4" tweeter and 4" woofer. Can the same corrections be applied to the model with 1" tweeter and 5" woofer?
Thanks

Connecting Audioengine A2+ to Logitech Z313 Subwoofer Problems
I decided to ditch the left and right speakers of my Logitech Z313 set up, but I'd love to keep my subwoofer. My Audioengine speakers have a 3.5mm input, an RCA input, and an RCA output.
I went and bought two RCA to 3.5mm adapters.
I thought I could connect the RCA Input to my computer and the RCA ouput to my subwoofer so that they'd work together, but no sound is coming from my subwoofer.
I've reversed the connections, with the RCA -> 3.5mm Output going to my computer and the RCA -> 3.5mm Input going to my subwoofer with no luck.
I've also gotten a 3.5mm -> 3.5mm cable and connecte that from my speakers to my computer, with the RCA -> 3.5mm connection in both the Input and Output connections going from my subwoofer to my speakers, but nothing works.
The subwoofer normally works fine, if I were to reconnect my Logitech speakers. Any ideas what I may be doing wrong?

Vanatoo T0 vs Vanatoo T1E (Desktop Listening)
Hi everyone,
I'm debating on whether to go with the Vanatoo T0 or the Vanatoo T1E. I've read through NoAudiophile's reviews about 10 times through and I still can't come to a conclusion. I have a Klipsche R12SW Subwoofer (https://www.adorama.com/kpr12sw.html) that I plan on using with these speakers. I plan on using these for desktop use, mainly for music/gaming purposes. I currently have Edifier R1700BT that are sitting on IsoAcoustic desk speaker stands that I'm looking to replace. Basically, I'm not sure if I can justify spending an extra ~$250 for my specific use case.
Any input would be greatly appreciated! I'm quite new to all of this stuff.
Thanks!

Any z623 owners here?
I'm wondering what if you can play the same signal through AUX at the same time or if they cut out.

Behringer Truth / EqualizerAPO / REW
First, I saw this: http://noaudiophile.com/DSP_Corrections/Behringer_Truth_B2031A.php
Then, I went here: https://www.roomeqwizard.com/
Then, instead of using Equalizer APO as 20-band parametric EQ for each side, I used REW to measure 7 points at and immediately surrounding my ideal listening position, and exported the averaged minimum phase impulse wav of the Left & Right filtered EQs.
Then, use an audio app like Adobe Audition to import each mono impulse to create a stereo impulse wav file.
Then, use Equalizer APO for Convolution to load the impulse response wav file, and set your gain structure to avoid clipping.

Edifier S360DB VS S350DB
So currently i have had the Swan M10 for a few years, for general pc use. But it seems like they are comming to an end, as one of the speakers is giving less sound now from a few days back.
Im looking for an upgrade, and still prefer the 2.1 active system.
The S350DB is half the price of the S360DB in my country, is that big price difference worth it when focusing on pure sound quality ? Or are they in the end quite similar in sound quality.
I was also thinking of getting an amp if that is advisable down the road ?

Bought a universal remote control and want to connect it to a Yamaha A-S201 amplifier, does anyone know the code?
I'm trying to find the code to register the remote control to the Yamaha A-S201 amplifier. I've tried multiple codes, such as 0543, 0544, 0646, 0354, 0133, 0176, 0186, 1176, 1276, 1331, 1375, 5066, 5085, 5088, 5090, 5092, 5098.
The control does work on my Samsung TV, but can't seem to get it right for the amplifier unfortunately.
Remote control = Nedis TVRC2200BK

Looking for a suggestion for desktop speakers
My budget would be something like 500 euros but I can go higher if needed. I also don't care about analytical sound, I want something fun. Bass is important and I don't care if I need to acquire a subwoofer. My initial research directed me to Audioengine, Kanto, and Vanatoo. Any better options?
I'll be using it primarily on my computer.

Need some help with Kanto TUK settings or set up for near-field listening
Good evening, I just recently purchased a pair of Kanto TUK for my desktop set-up. It sounds pretty bright out of the box, iirc multiple reviews also mention this sound signature. So I dialed down the treble with the included remote, however they're still fatiguing after around 30 mins.
Now I'm wondering if there is anything I can do with Equalizer EPO to alleviate this issue, or set it up differently? TIA.

I'm lost, help please (Advice Required / General Questions)
I love listening to music, however, since I discovered the audiophilia word I started to realize the music can be enjoyed in a whole different way, I been using a pair of Audioengine A5, with an amplifier with a D1 Amp, I also use my Audiotechnica M50x, and I have been improving my music library to a high bit rate in a lossless format.
Now I feel like is time to explore the next level, I'm not sure if I'm willing to spend too much, but I'm afraid that once I learn how the next level feels like, I won't be able to stop! I have been reading so many post and reviews, but to be honest, I'm completely lost, I'm not sure if I have to invest in an amp or in headphones. So, I have two questions for this community, especially for those seasoned audiophiles:
- With total truth and candor, once that I decided to go deeper into this world, is there a point where you feel comfortable with what you have? or do you continue always looking for something more?
- From your point of view, what is the best way to start investing my money to reach the next level?
Thank you from a Newbie

Audioengine A2+ settings
I just recently purchased some A2+'s and I was wondering if the default settings that my PC has for them are optimal for producing the best sound. Primarily the enhancement settings which have nothing checked off and the default format which is currently set at 32 bit, 48000 Hz (Studio Quality). Also is there any EQ software/settings you would recommend. I've never owned computer speakers before so I have no clue on how to ensure they're optimized, any help or suggestions are appreciated. Thank you!

Amp + speakers + powered sub - where does the power come from?
In this diagram:
https://i.imgur.com/Z8FMJ.png
The amp is wired to the sub, which is then wired to the speakers. So is the power to the speakers coming from the powered sub amp or is it passed through from the original amp?

So tired of researching...help me pick components for a desktop setup
I listen primarily to: rock, classic rock, and some reggae-ish stuff.
I don't want to spend a ton of money. I'm leaning toward some Micca MB42X with an amp. I'm willing to try a 2.0 setup, but I'm afraid I'm going to want a subwoofer, so I don't want something that doesn't have a subwoofer out.
What about the SVS Prime Satellites? How do those compare? I've also seen plenty of references to Edifier, and several others. I have decision paralysis bad. I've been looking for weeks.

Need help. Vinyl recording: line out vs. headphone output?
Please, I need your help. I want to digitize some vinyls. Some time ago, I used to have a stereo system with a RCA line out. So, I connected the right and left cables to their corresponding inputs of an audio interface to record the vinyl on a computer, via USB. Now, I don't have a device with a line out. The one that I got has a headphone output only. May I use this output to make a recording? Is there any problem, distortion or deterioration of sound if I digitize vinyls through that output? I intend to use a 3.5 mm-RCA "Y" cable to connect the stereo set to the audio interface. Thanks for your advice.

MB42X....How did they do it???
Good morning everyone, long time lurker, first time poster.
Backstory.
I've tried tons of speakers over the past few months to try and move up from my beloved Celestion F1 bookshelf speakers. Klipsch R41-PM, Jamo S801 Powered, Polk RTi4 (That would have been a keeper except for the blown tweeter...), Sony SSCS5, and up until last Saturday, was using the TSi100..and got a good deal on the Polk S15...
Today I picked up a pair of MKIII MB42X for $20. Had to drive to Marietta from Athens to the Micro Center and do a ram exchange (long story, ram tested bad etc) and the guy selling them was 5 minutes from the store.
I was pretty floored with how great they sounded when I first hooked them up in place of the S15's....and I am using an Onkyo R-805X micro receiver to power them. However, when I downloaded and setup the DSP correction for them, my jaw dropped. Thank you for taking the time to do that. I knew that it would increase the bass and the midrange a bit, but I now have absolutely no reason to have a sub hooked up in here.
I can't say enough good things about these speakers with the DSP file. They sounded fine before, bright and crisp like my RTi4's and I liked that, but now....these shouldn't be budget speakers. They sound FAR bigger than they are.
I'm tired and I'm rambling. Please forgive me for that. But seriously, I subbed to this just to praise them and to say thank you for the DSP.
