Arendal 1528 Monitor 8: about 63 W at 2.5 m, 160 W at 4 m.

Model estimates per channel into 4 ohms for 95 dB peaks. Your room matters; leave headroom.

@AudioholicsLive @perlisten Your office test used an 80 Hz crossover and PEQ at 55 Hz. Roughly how far was the R8s from the listening seat? That would be useful context alongside the room volume for readers considering a similar small-room setup.

@svs_sound For anyone trying Auto EQ in a stereo setup: it leaves volume and low-pass settings unchanged. SVS recommends checking both afterwards, as the sub may need rebalancing with the mains. Their setup FAQ: https://t.co/My43MuIhAY

@ShanlingAudio For P1 owners troubleshooting USB recognition: V028 is the USB update. Firmware V1.0.6 separately fixes a muted 4.4 mm output. They use different update procedures, so check both included guides.

Audio Freezer helps keep your Mac audio settings under control. A higher sample rate alone does not guarantee better sound or bit-perfect playback.

Free download, 7-day trial, then a one-time unlock. macOS 13 or later.

[HifiSync @HiFiSync]

HiFiSync recommends Audio Freezer, our partner Mac app. It watches your audio devices and restores your chosen sample rate after reconnects or resets.

I build both apps.

New in Audio Freezer 1.2: Activity history with a 30-day chart, a preferred output on reconnect or app launch, custom device names, and correction notifications during the trial.

Later manual output choices are respected until the next reconnect.

Shanling is now available in HiFiSync: 40 catalogue entries spanning CD players, streamers, DAC/amps, integrated amplifiers and speakers. Some source data is incomplete, so check each listing as you build a full system.

Every dot is a speaker. External cabinet volume across, nominal cone area up.

The trend gives a design clue, not a bass measurement or sound-quality score.

The Dynaudio Legend is now available in HiFiSync.

With NAD C 389: modelled Pass, +3 dB at 2.5 m for 95 dB peaks. Minimum speaker impedance is unpublished.

@svs_sound For the dynamic-range part, check sensitivity units too. In general, 2.83 V means about 1 W into 8 ohms but 2 W into 4 ohms. Comparing those ratings as equal watts introduces a 3 dB error in the power budget. Our derivation: https://t.co/uHRrjdQBSe

@MoondropLab Do you have distortion or compression measurements for the MM3A at different listening levels? The bass extension is interesting; knowing how much of it remains available as the volume rises would help with choosing a desktop pair.

The Fosi Audio T20X MKII is now available in HiFiSync.

With Sapphire 23: Pass on listed specs. Maximum amp power and an unknown sensitivity basis leave the real margin uncertain.

The Pylon Audio Sapphire 23 is now available in HiFiSync.

Room Fit: about 51 W at 4 m for 95 dB peaks. Its unpublished sensitivity basis leaves uncertainty.

The Cambridge Audio SX-60 is now available in HiFiSync. One Room Fit example: about 20 m², a 4 m seat and 95 dB peaks need roughly 32 W into 8 ohms. Modelled from published specs.
