Los Angeles - Who is up for a w/e Subwoofer demo?

I refuse to attend any further hifi demos unless it can be proven that its worth my time. I expect perfect sound. I am sick of mega expensive systems that sound horrible. Erik what guarantee do we have? Most audiophiles are absolutely clueless when it comes to sound quality. Bass is boomy, treble is harsh enough to make you wince, mids are horrific. 

Perfect sound requires custom tuned speakers. Erik, whats the point in any of us listening to your system that is not tuned to our ears? I suspect it hasnt even been tuned to your own ears. Am i right?

Full disclosure, neither is mine. Tuned to kenjits exquisite ears. So he will not be stopping by any time soon. To which I am eternally grateful.

Merry Christmas!

Happy New Year!

any tuning done after the solstice is suspect, well above 73.2 HZ or so

Christmas tree on dedicated circuit...

Eric, i would be a commuter from Carlsbad and could maybe bring a Vandersteen 3 tunable sub with me - given some advance notice. Vino I got.

To be clear: Everything will be configured before anyone arrives. :)

I'll need time to set up , and organize all the slides.

Festivus at Erik's, sans Kenjit. Perfect.

Hello david_ten,

      Thanks for the link to one of my favorite episodes, that video was a good summary of the entire episode in only a few minutes.  I miss that show.
Hello Erik,
     As far as subs go, I'll be 2K miles away but can state with certainty that either the Audio Kinesis Swarm or Debra 4-sub DBA will be the undisputed champ if you have one on-hand to audition.  Don't even bother holding the shindig if you don't. You can't be the champ if you can't beat the champ.

@noble100   Tim, I can't wait for the Airing of the Sub Grievances!!!

And, if Kenny G does show, the 'perfect' 'custom' Feats of Strength with Erik....

So I really should be more clear. :)

The purpose of the demo would be to show how well a single sub can be integrated with a pair of satellites, and what that sounds like.

I’ll be demoing:

• Hsu V15
• miniDSP
• GIK Accoustic panels and soffit traps
• My very own custom 2-way satellites
  
• Luxman 507ux
• Mytek Brooklyn
  
• Raspberry Pi / Linux based Tidal music player.
  

I don’t really intend to sell anyone on Hsu, but rather to show how important proper integration is.


BTW- Hsu makes really great subs for cheap, but that’s not my point here. :)  The Hsu is literally 4x more subwoofer than my little apartment should have!

Fair enough but only if I can bring Vandertones disc and my RTA

facts and data will set you free :-)

Sure. We'll have to rip it though, I haven't got a real spinner anywhere in the house! :D

Wow.  Kenjit really showed his colors on that one.  With that attitude, no one would ever invite you anywhere.  If you have any friends, do they actually put up with your pompous attitude?

Do you think that you are superior to everyone?  
So, if someone is kind and generous enough to invite you to their home, it needs to come with a guarantee that your satisfaction will be met?  Shall we send a limo to pick you up as well?

Kenjit  is just mad and acting out because his mom said he couldn't go to Erik's house.
