Dynaudio best tune?

[Booth11]

If we're on the subject of opera, then,

Franco Corelli:

A te, o cara, amor talora

and

Recitar!.....Vesti la giubba


With the volume cranked up.

Top choices those



Who says the MKVI isn't Highbrow enough? 

 

Philippe Jaroussky anyone 

Mind you I also have Aerosmith/AC/DC/van Halen/Orbinson/Williams on cd for the car...and the occasionally MP3 stock for long drives 

I do hate all the Chesky ones....to me there is a HUGE difference between playing the top notch sound quality and playing the top notch artists ....

And yes I got quite a few Chesky ones for my home stereo.....never ever playing them again....


BTW
Treat your Dynaudio every now and then with the old fashion cd whenever possible....nice equipment deserves a uncompressed source

Jaroussky, a little too falsetto for my liking!    Agree about cd quality.

Hidden menu? How deeply hidden?

The long press on 'Setup' (20 seconds or so).
It's in there, under 'sound' I think.

If you can't get to the menu, it needs to be enabled with VCDS. Into 37 Navigation, Adaptation, Ch50, change the value from 0 to 1 to enable the hidden/diagnostic menu.

what head unit do you have?

i tried that on my RCD510 DAB and it didnt do anything.




also has anyone tried a subwoofer with dynaudio?

if so which one?

Me neither. Just took me to a submenu for radio information. No sign of a Loudness setting anywhere else that I can see.

[mkviken]

only loudness setting i can find is for speed controlled volume and AUX input, which i have on low

[AlanH]

On most hifi amps, the Loudness settings enhances the high and low frequencies when playing at a low volume, so it would be useful on an in-car system.

this is an interesting thread

I think I'll try the recommended settings from that thread at the weekend - thanks for the link.

Hi

I am a sick audiophile myself...

The setting on the 3 zeros do indeed suck...

After I played different settings by ear I discovered finally that with the minus 7 treble plus one mid minus 3 bass sounded best...I really thought the damn thing was broken...such deviation 

After reading the link and pressing the setting (very close to my findings) in the link (a true measurement) the result to my taste the -9 treble +3 mid -5 bass DOES sound better meaning very usefull information

Tried the recommended settings this morning. Initial impressions are good - much more detailed mids. I'll try them over the next week with various sources - FM, DAB and iPod whilst driving. BTW, I have the fader set two clicks to the rear.
