The HAL MS-3 Music Server and dspMusik DSP crossover/DAC are setup for digital playback and making music in the GT AudioWorks room 404.

Hope to see folks at the show for some music listening.

Phil,
Glad to see you again at the show as well and had some time to sit and listen. Always good when you bring music to play!

Thanks for the pictures. The room setup Greg and his wife did was very nice.

In case anyone was wondering the HAL DAC/DSP, which sounded excellent, is the very small box with the blue LED on the floor near the right channel monoblock.

IMO the music server to buy, period.

That's why I have MS-2 in one system and the MS-3 in another.

Oh, that was your room.

Rich can still enjoy the picture.

Phil A · « **Reply #315 on:** 1 Sep 2015, 03:22 pm »

That camera lens is pointing to a specific spot. Was that the sweet spot in the room.

Rich,

It was really great to have you and HAL in the GT/Paradox room.
HIGH REZ RULES !!
I think we need to put a sign on the door next time.
"Please don't have a drink in your hand during playback of high rez orchestral climaxes. We are not responsible for dry cleaning bills"

Greg,
Thanks again for the opportunity to demo the HAL setup with you!

I love the idea of the sign!

Hope Pete has recovered!

Very clean and fast planar. Did all the things ribbons do well. I know ribbons. I didn't get a chance to really listen for the crossover region. This kind of show is not the best to really get into listening seriously. I would love to listen to them for a few weeks.

I agree that it is tough to get anything but a general idea from the show about audio components and speakers. I believe the woofers in the GT speakers just roll off with no crossover but perhaps Greg can clarify.
