Life With The Trinnov Altitude 16 Home Theater Preamp and Processor - Long Term Review!
Просмотров 2,5 тыс.11 месяцев назад
This is my detailed experience of living what is probably the world's greatest home theater processor for about a year. Not Sponsored. No BS. All real.
Product looks fantastic very excited about the dac and amp! What kind of speakers were used in the demo?
Hey there, just another guy looking to plug some gaming consoles into a trinnov. So keep preaching fighting the good fight for us. Luckily I haven’t pulled the trigger on one and just doing research. Thanks so much for these details
I was wondering what happened to you at Gramophon. I unsubbed from them and subbed to you. 😃 I'm a huge Sonus Faber fan. I have the Olympica Nova 2. Glad I found your channel!
Thanks man! Glad to have you!
firstly. BEST OF LUCK TO Mr Chase with his future endeavors. these speakers look great. i personally love everything that's over built or over engineered. looking forward to hear these speakers soon i hope. thanks for sharing. Cheers.
Nice
Very unique 👍
Welcome back Luke!
Looking forward to part 2 👍
Hi Luke. I have not seen any videos from you in quite some time. I'm glad to see you back and I hope you are okay.
Doing great! A lot of changes in life this year, but all for the better! I've finally got the time to upload more regularly again. Thank you!
That might be the biggest yard I've ever seen on the tube!! Excellent review and new sub
Nice review. I have the product for almost 2 months. I made 2 profiles and they are different. Just 2 comments - the first is that I heard a RUclips video that said that it's best to do the self calibration with white (maybe another color) noise in the background so that nothing influences the background. I found this to be very helpful. The second is that after seeing my profiles there are 2 basic colors - pinkish and blueish. What do these colors represent? In my initial calibration, I was really round and pink as if I am getting all the frequencies but I'm not sure whether this is true or not. By the way just as a side point, after a month of use, the right earbud had a fit and stopped working and then a week later came back to life and is still working. We think it may have been caused by the wireless charging and it took the right earphone time to return to itself. If others have had this issue it would be interesting to bring it up. Denon is not the most responsive in dealing with issues :) I will say that then they work (most of the time except for those 7 days) the earphones are phenomenal - the best buds I have ever heard by a far margin. I'd say that they are better then many of my (even quite expensive) over ear earphones. So this is a major accomplishment .
Damn this is a great review!
Thank you for sharing this with us all. Gino and the whole family are amazing people, with incredible audio products.
That's art 😍
Great video. I wonder what speakers (and number of speakers) would you recommend to go with the Altitude 16? Also, do I need the Amplitude as well?
Provided you have the space, and a room that’s proportioned well for theater use by all means go with as many channels as you can up to 16 for the Altitude 16 that is, as they have the 32 for even more too. Now that said, almost always choose quality over quantity at least for the front stage channels (Left, Center, Right), and for your subs. The surrounds you can dial it back a bit if need be, but get something similar to the whole sound field’s timbre consistent. Like I was saying in the video, invest first in some top tier speakers before grabbing a Trinnov, “make it make sense” so to speak. You don’t “need” an Amplitude, but the gain matching is awesome, and if it’s within your means why not? Unless you are buying a set of monoblock class A amps or something like that for equal to or greater than cost and that’s each, I really don’t expect you to hear an appreciable difference. Especially when the dead silent and “gain on a wire” nature of the Amplitude just maximizes the work of the optimizer corrections and personalized target curve. As for what I like regarding speakers, I’d recommend: PerListen be it S or R Series, Wisdom Audio Sage or Wisdom series, Ascendo’s Be series, Sonus faber’s Arena line, Theory/Pro Audio Technology especially their active 3 way speakers, or KEF’s newest Dominus rated THX in walls.
@@lukerestlessstudios Thank you for your response. Much appreciated. I have been looking at the Perlisten speakers but I will look at the other recommended speakers. Again thank you!
@@juanosorno8153 if you choose to go with PerListen, let me know. I can likely help you with that.
not impressed by the sonus farber sound not sure who owns them now.
These are awesome! I saw them on USAudioMart, the color combo would have matched my décor perfectly! Did you end up selling? How did you order this custom finish from Perlisten? Thanks!
They did end up selling. I sure miss them but such is life, at least they went to a good home. I know a few of the guys at PerListen personally as well as their distributor. They were nice enough to do me a bit of a favor with this color combo. I hope to own more PerListen in the future once things stabilize a bit for me.
Hearing the difference between the people is imo a nonsense. Because - your ears is not anyone's else ears 😊
These speakers go against so much of the confentional speaker design that I really really want to hear them. I love the shape. Wide and shallow speakers are rare and if you find them they are panels usually. This design for a big box speaker is so much friendlier on floor space in smaller rooms.
Rest in peace Nura. Real ones know what these earbuds used to be before they were sold off by their creators
Such a cool company. I’m curious what else they may have done if they didn’t sell the company. That said Denon has put it to good use here I think.
Hi Luke. This was by far the best video I have seen about the Trinnov. Very honest review and very much appreciated. Good Luck with your post-Gramophone adventures. I am very much looking forward to your Perlisten review. This is the exact system I am researching. Trinnov, Perlisten speakers, and McIntosh amps. Take Care, Ernest
Great review Luke. You just earned yourself a new subscriber. Hello from Australia
What in the world happened to the video colour? .. That's sorta awesome ..but .. wow. Interesting.
I need a new camera that doesn’t play games with me. Unfortunately I didn’t have the time to reshoot. Thankfully I will be getting a new camera soon since selling off some gear.
@lukerestlessstudios .. I hear ya. Thats super odd for a camera to do that.. All good. I watched anyways :-) At least its actually you telling real experiences and not some stupid B-roll footage of trash and an A.I. robot voice over. I respect the decision to go with it. 🙏🙏👍🏻
@@psyphonyxaudio thank you. I should have the video about my PerListen system up in about a week too. That will be my thoughts about every use case after a year with it.
Which model is suitable for home leaving Room 20 *20 feet size ?
The LS60 towers.
The LS60 kick ass but would recommend a sub still
@@goldenears9748 for sure!
Merry Xmas Luke and to your family! 🎄🎁🎁🎄
On my test the Denon are better than the XM5 ANC and probably 5% under Apple and Bose, correct tips and initial ears setup are crucial for the Denon but the only weakness is transparency / Social mode.
hit the like in the first 5 seconds for the matrix reference
you guys should credit Nuraphone
Well said. Nura did create the whole foundation of the PerLs.
Love it. King live spectrum analyzers. I want one
If you think Epicore sounds nice witn Nad M33... My God, you should try it with Hegel H600... like 30% better!!!
🦃🍁🦃🍁🦃🍁🦃 Happy Thanksgiving Luke, and to your Family 🍁🦃🍁🦃🍁🦃🍁
Likewise! Thank you!
For me i think it looks fugly…..but if it sounds good then why not…
Thanks for sharing this... I have their new J2 with AKM4499EX set running balanced with 2 SparkosLabs SS2590 dual Pro opamps. I literal said, the only thing that could top this DAC is a dual AKM4499EX and AKM4191EQ with separate power supplies and SparkosLabs SS2590's and here you go! Thanks Geno! I gather "This" is what you were hinting at.... Cool beans!
And the biggest lawn in America award goes to 🏆 😂
Did anyone find this out here yet.......................................... No trace anywhere...hmmmmm
He’s launching it soon. Not available quite just yet.
Lots of very cool stuff going on in that speaker for sure, and a very ambitious design for a first go. I love how the form and function come together, it looks super dope but its all there for reason. You can really tell from the interview that this is a passion project for Percy. Sadly five figures is too steep for me but maybe we'll see something more accessible someday but best of luck regardless.
Put me to sleep
Very innovative, creative thinking.
Super cool, very unique
I love the design of these!
Me too. And it really works too.
We enjoyed these as well, and are in talks to partner with them for future shows.
Heck yeah! A perfect partnership if you ask me!
but what's the price?
Ballpark $2k.
I’m looking forward to learning more about the integrated.
Looks like really nice stuff. And not to get all ethnocentric, its nice to see some natively built gear besides Schiit. Also, random suggestion interject more random B roll into the video during static interviews like this. It would keep the video interesting from a purely visual aspect help hold the viewers attention.
I’m really impressed with the looks of these. I can’t wait to hear how they sound in person
They were superb. I may even be tempted to go as far as to say that they might be all you need for most systems.
nvm, you meant giant killer.
Indeed!
The integrated blew me away with it's performance!
Yeah buddy! I have no doubt it could drive both of our systems really well too.
Fancy metal work on the top but cheapo name stenciling on the front. Design question. I hate the painted label on front.
That is just a placeholder to show what it will look like. We are still waiting for the metal plates to come in.
^ what she said!
Nice that the zoofa is class ab
Agreed. As much as I like the new GaN based stuff and how accurate they are, there is still something to be said about a classic design for those of us looking for it. Plus the Zoofa was clean as heck anyway as far as I could tell.
Would have been nice to see a Hypex or ICEpower D class amp instead an AB amp.
I somewhat agree but AB ain’t dead yet. Knowing Geshelli this should test well.
@lukerestlessstudios I agree AB is not dead yet but to go up against Schiit & Emotiva and others in the already large AB class world I don't think they will succeed but if they offered a good Hypex or ICEpower they would have a great offering. I owned many great AB amps but none are as good as my VTV Hypex at $700.
@@991carreras3 I feel you. That said I think this thing claps Emotiva, who personally I’ve never been that impressed by to tell you the truth. Also there are some out there who just want AB whatever their reasoning or lack thereof.
No, class d still sucks. However plenty of fools think it's the new thing so must be great
@@991carreras3 I am going to take your advice and try the VTV Hypex and find out by myself. Do you get the CAJONES on the bass like the old Adcom 555 ???
