Thank you for interviewing Advance Paris. It,s a very interesting and promising French brand which is largely unknown here in North America unfortunately!
I may look hen IN My home town of Nice in France, maybe I can get it there? so would need speakers, do you think the Arendal 1723 THX would do or any other brand?
Fantastic! The manufacturer interviews hearing the how and why is really nice. It will all come together when you give your take away on the different rooms.
Hiro was such a fascinating gentleman to listen to, I've not heard Esoteric on my journey but they are on my radar now! Appreciate that BIG component ideology.
PMC and Amphion are typical manufactures for professional audio equipment (studio monitors). It's great to see Esoteric products match up well with those brands. I'm a huge fan of Esoteric by the way.
Jay, thanks for this video. I just got my first Denafrips DAC the new Ares 12-1 …and I’m still stunned at what it’s doing to my music 🥲 Advanced Paris ..I’ve got the catalog from the last Toronto Audiofest..their gear is amazing. Oh, the first time I actually got to see the Esoteric stuff up close (American Sound) ..love and heart break all at once. Great video 👍👍
It is true, a low crossover point is better for a natural sound to the ears. I heard a pair of older Dynaudio speakers that have done that and it's apperent. Not all Dynaudios do this configuration, why not??
from what I know it is a trade off. You can choose to cross-over lower if the tweeter is capable and waveguides and such helps BUT just because it can play lower doesn't mean that it is the most optimal range for the tweeter. Every tweeter has an optimal range it operates on before distortion numbers rise higher, ideally you want to cross over 2 octaves before or after that point, so you either have to choose higher or lower crossover point based on other parameters.
The simple circuit is the best..........anyway the simple circuit does the least damage if well designed ...about power supply I agree with what HIRO said.
Feels like a long infomercial! Love audio gear but without tough questions from you directly, I don't see the point. Sorry for the blunt feedback. As far as tough questions go, I'd love to know how come reputable audio gear manufacturers can't seem to be able to build reliable apps for instance?
This is a show coverage presentation showcasing new and upcoming products. When I go to these shows, I get insight by talking to manufacturers and reps. I thought it would provide value to film it at a high level for my viewers. I understand how it can come across as a commercial. Will be back to reviewing soon after these show coverages :) thank you
LOL He's at the largest audio show in the nation. Of course it's going to be "commercial" & informative. These guys aren't stopping by his place everyday!
What a lot of crap, big boards sone better. The bigger the board the longer the track the more parasitic components are added. Components have no timbre also not the nonsense non-engineers speak.
