| Audiophile Humor Brother, can you spare a dime, er I mean a hundred, I need a new hi-fi tuning fuse. | |
| Bass distortion before tweeter distortion with a monitor at high volume? sfall,You once again make some good points, particularly the gap you mention between the reproducible frequencies of the sub vs the speaker and your statement that subwoofers are not woofers.I use a pair of Rel T5's and they have crossover capabil... | |
| Bass distortion before tweeter distortion with a monitor at high volume? sfall,I am not going to be pushing an amp hard. To the contrary, I will be using a Bryston 4bsst2, which has 300w at 8 ohms, and can coast and drive ( I would think ) any 2 way monitor I choose. Again, the point is, I want a small speaker that I... | |
| Bass distortion before tweeter distortion with a monitor at high volume? elevick,I bet the Coincident's are great speakers and play well in a large room, but I am sure there are limits to the db it can achieve before it distorts.The point of this thread is to discuss whether that distortion, which most seem to agree wo... | |

I don't have the knowledge of many of the experienced posters here and it is nice to be able to take advantage of it. It seems it might be a good idea to look for a speaker/tw... | |
| Bass distortion before tweeter distortion with a monitor at high volume? sboje, "If your speaker manufacturer uses the same tweeter in a larger 3 or even 4-way design, I would expect it to breeze along just fine."Thanks for an excellent common sense answer. To find a real world example, I went to Kef's web site and l... | |
| Bass distortion before tweeter distortion with a monitor at high volume? sfall,Thanks for the response and for the link. Here is what I don't understand. If I try to play a small speaker in a too large room and have to supply too much power to it, it will distort. True? It just can't play that loudly. So simply ad... | |
