...paying more attention to the gear v. the music? Does seem a distraction at the end of the day....just sayin'.... ;) *S*
Why isn’t more detail always better?
Is more detail always better if not unnaturally bright or fatiguing?

@mapman ...How's the Ohms doing in that regard? :) |
@waytoomuchstuff ...as one who accompanied spouse to her 50th HS reunion over Halloween wknd.....both agreed an excuse to visit NYC over the following wk. DJ lame....crowd overdressed....if not in the company of one of her 2 friends then & now, unrecognized....self a stranger on a stranger chunk of the planet.... ...and hadn't even been to Manhattan yet....*LOL* Missed return from Newark by minutes.... "WTF is plan B.S?!" Renter (NEW! 300 on a Nissan sedan for 40$/d, no limit mi.....) Watch this, commuters....700 mi. in 11ish hrs., 80~85 as poss. on Interstates. Spouse has learned how to 'push it' from yours unruly....❤....;) ) End of day, worth it to escape the flood routines, thanx Helene... @mapman , GF, zed argument from your DIY Walsh adherent here...👍😉 Re-arranging here into a 'proper' Walsh surround w/sub to prove to spouse that a pair of Maggies will suck. Even if I tag the ESS amts' along to tag along...which require nil space.... Have 4, can astound soon; surround amt's of the same caricature's....just like IRL....*wooosh *L* @dishman442 Yeah, it's only when the raw meat gets tossed in that things get 'complicated'... ;) +10, Yes, only gets more involved when we bring our stuff home that the formulas get involved, drastically by the space we try to make it 'happen' within. DSP can improve, but likely never cure the 'random locale' we attempt to live and live with re audio endeavors... SAV can be a sofa too high to surmount....unless you are or have the wallet to become a monk..... ;) |
@noromance ...*?* My UniversedXlator came back with "Duh?: Yammy=Yamaha, NS10=GP RR bike:?"...per the onboard wetware.... Rev&Repost? Pwease.... ;) |
@noromance ...oh, had to switch dialects, alter the unconsciousness gain.....Now, if we wind down the ’noids and pump up the volume, dance, dance..... "It’ll be aaaalllll rrriiiight....", no? *bedazed @ the fountain* @mapman ;) Gotta’ watch that "technology from 20 or more years ago" rant, when we’re both really happy with one that’s 2.5x that..... Best example of the single driver format, rotated 90, and stretch the cone.... Like any of the speaker designs we prefer and laud about to those still awake, there’s that tweak that makes it sing for us. The 3 section cones of the F......the Heil amts’ rippled ribbon, don’t push/pull when you can pinch ( without getting slapped over it...;)....).... The method is in the movements and how precise it can be in a given span... The decay of the struck piano (harp) string....how close to what you’ve experienced before and tomorrow....does the percussion match the drive and dream of IRL....the keyboards with lines to enhance the other instruments, the vocals dodging or floating the lyricals.... *nirvana delayed only for now....* Lots of variations on the themes of How about to about us to select the Way....including the paved perfection through the rocky path on cliffs’ edge to the Hermit Audiosociopath... We attend shows, visit B&Ms’, ’zines, sites, converse with other Seekers of the Improbable Infinity, Driven. (*sigh* Long way to go to dump a pun....if only for groans... 😏 ) The entirety of the above was with this in the headphones....in loop.....bmb ;)

@noromance ...*laugh* Well, I got the Yamaha part right.....and I was a Y-rider when I wasn't so easy to bruise 'n break.. Now, when I'm living in a bike-friendly area with lotsa curves, I make do with the 4 wheeler.... Thankfully, it's reasonably nimble.... The NS-10 sounded like one of their 'GP street bikes' that cost like a car and require being as much of a fanboy as we are re audio... At least we don't have to wear leathers to listen....unless you've inscrutable tastes and interesting habits.. 👍😏😎 |
A Zylon...WTF is it? Sounds like a polymer pastiche' to this unfortunate non-immortal..... Mabbe a layer of that Scotchtissue....laminated to the front of the driven surface for obvious 'texture'.... Of Course he'll opine that his OB's are better, Kenobi.....They're like that...*L* Won't say he's wrong, either.... ;) |
@noromance...The ’white paper’ answers a lot....most of which previously threw me into the trap laid.....I have a pair of drivers that work best with a blocked vent...imho and taste. the last of which...🤷♂️ I might try that on my Heils for grins.... @yyzsantabarbara....makes sense to me....Yam. wouldn’t stay in business if they don’t keep sharpening the bleedin’ edge.... Go listen and file a report....Due Xmas eve....take a roll or 12 of TP ’samples’....;) |
@toddalin.... The magic being they're dipoles? I own 2 pairs of the 'big' versions, so no new news there.... ;) The mods applied to the plate structures ( L+R ) and the top and bottom recesses is nice, tho'. Cleans up their appearance, the bottoms being dust traps... Any audible differences from that? Is that a diy or an 'off the shelf' mod, available from where/who? Spouse is still without clue for my Xmas 'surprise' ( Hers' being a Kindle Paperwhite, after leaden hints....) |
A line array of the above amt drivers could be outrageous, but if driven to that level of desire and intent, I'd opt to a pair of 2 of the Newform R45's....pricey, but in line with that level of intent..... Newforms' are rare to be seen for sale......not a dipole by design, but one could circumvent that with the application of mo' money....as usual....*l* |
