• I’ve had a little experiment with hi-passing my speakers using a Schiit Loki EQ. I kept turning down my sub until I realised it was basically off and it was the bass from the speakers that was sounding bad.

    I’ve removed the speaker level connection to the sub and replaced it with an RCA from the preamp sub out, separating the sub from the power amp. I’ve then put the EQ between preamp and power amp and cut the bass out.

    It functions correctly and seems cleaner right away. I’ll have to fidget with it for a few months before I can decide whether it’s worthwhile.

    I like that it’s all done in the analogue area and it’s just knobs to twiddle. I do have a MiniDSP but I don’t want to adjust it by computer, plus it’s the all digital one so that means another box each side of it for the digital conversion.

  • The thing that took it to the next level for me was REW and a room mic so that the tweaking became a bit more scientific.

  • If you ever find that NAD cd player is skipping/not sounding great, it'll just needs the rails for the laser cleaning. - had that problem with mine
