QUOTE(Fusion @ Sep 13 2019, 10:28 AM) I am using Arcam 390 running 7.1.4 with external amp. Great to see a owner of Arcam receiver in this forum. Do u adjust sound level of speaker in your amp to 75db after run dirac live? Why not you consider pioneer Lx500, The sound quality is better than oppo 203. Jailbreak version now also very stable. |

QUOTE(anfieldude @ Sep 13 2019, 11:22 AM) Again, the sound of the LX500 is better than the Oppo203 for bitstream content, PCM or analogue outs from the Oppo/Pioneer? yes, I got luck to test few player oppo 203 , 205, pioneer lx 800 in my home in the same day . All sounds & pictures are different . But not every one is sensitive to sound quality, if someone cannot heard different is normal.This post has been edited by kkthen: Sep 13 2019, 11:47 AM |

QUOTE(Fusion @ Sep 17 2019, 03:05 PM) Great to have Arcam owners here. i am using Starke A7 for my 5 channel (main speaker using hifi monoblock) and Anthem PVA7 for my 4 atmos. Due to difference in power and speaker efficiently, i am having difficulties volume matching all the speakers during Dirac setup even with the 10db individual speaker volume adjustment. The different of my main speaker vs my back speaker is more than 10db. i am still able to get all the channel to fall into the green bar in order to run Dirac. Your sound system is great , you deserve use high end uhd bluray player like oppo 205 or pioneer 800 for good quality source. I only use single AVR550 for amp. After run dirac live , i got 83 db sound level for my front speaker, sound quality are very terrible. I adjust all speaker level at 75 db, subwoofer at 85 db. This is most correct setting . Arcam auto level is something wrong , need to manually adjust to correct . We got 6 arcam user member , all of us face up same incorrect sound level problem.even with Umik mic, i find that all the speaker are not volume matched even after Dirac Live. the difference between each individual speaker can varies up to 3.5db when i run the test tone from the AVR after dirac calibration. If i volume match all the speakers (my front 2 speaker are usually the loudest), i get more pinpoint imaging but it reduces the dynamic of the system by a little. |
