| Considering the option of "DSP speakers" I’ve voiced my opinions on some of the issues with room correction if it tries to correct the entire freq. band, bass to 20KHz, specifically to the treatment of the treble audio range. Another philosophical problem is that, let’s say you purchase ... | |
| Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference? OK, seems like trolling is in vogue here. We all know of people having multiple usernames. But very few know that there are multiple people sharing the same username lols. That explains the mysterious phenomenon of why some people possess expertis... | |
| Thiel Owners When the world turns darkAnd the heart turns coldAnd beauty turns to meThat's when I turn cold.OK, what's the hell is that? I think I just need more beers :-) | |
| Thiel Owners I'll probably see if the KEF R series can come close to the magic that is Thiel, but I'm not counting on it. The magic is in the beers :-) | |
| Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference? I have to say this thread is almost like beers but not quite though :-) | |
| Thiel Owners To Andy's point: New Thiel demonstrated quite clearly how a marketplace responds to non-focused strategies. New Thiel spent $10Million trying to do the standard job really well. Their tower speaker got 5 stars from Brent Butterworth and did the ... | |
| BEST SPEAKERS AT A REASONABLE PRICE At $2500, I would think there are a lot of good options. At the end, it's all about personal preferences though, especially at this price point (assuming brand new). | |
| Thiel Owners Jim’s approach was that everything matters.First thanks for your insights and I don't mean to play the "monday quarterback" game, since that could offend others, but it would be interesting to see "what if?" without being too negative. Is it po... | |
| Thiel Owners The story of the CS1.7 from Tom is very interesting since it told a story of what is superior - the fourth order xover that allows for better power handling and "smoother" treble response, but of course it is not time-phase coherent which some vie... | |
| Thiel Owners I think different frequency range presents its own difficulty. The upper mid/treble region does have its own issues. On the opposite pole, the lower bass has its own unique issues as well. I've designed speakers with both ported and seal design... | |
| Thiel Owners With the CS2.4, when I listened to Pink Floyd Welcome to the Machine track on Wish You Were Here album, the initial sound affects of the track comes practically from the right wall right on my right side at my listening position. With my own speak... | |
| Does raising speaker cables off the floor really make a big difference? ... it keeps going ...If I didn't see the tree fall ... does it exist? If I can't hear ... hear no evil, see no evil. | |
| Best speakers out there for Midrange and Highs Also the quality of the driver also matters. I have used Seas entry level paper cones and also some high end ScanSpeak, and the Seas sounds somewhat hollow in comparison. Of course the Seas Excel is different altogether compared to their entry l... | |

| Can your system be optimized to sound better for classical or non-classical? Mr. Pass (Pass Labs) once said that stereo reproduction is an entertainment and not dialysis. What he meant was that in a sense, whatever it takes to sound good. I do believe if a system is optimized for rock, pop and so on, will probably won't ... |
