| What does the term "Speed" mean in a speaker? resolution and transient response are very closely related. By dynamic I do not mean loud. I mean snap. Yes, but they may not be one to one exact. A high end paper driver may have more resolution and a low end aluminum driver may have more transi... | |
| What are the current "speaker trends" in your opinions? Hey,George, what the hell Vodoo has to do with this lols. | |
| What are the current "speaker trends" in your opinions? I think it depends on the price brackets. Each of them will have a trend of their own. For medium price, probably it will be DSP. But with DSP, currently there is no clear standard. Right now, you have to purchase everything from one single ma... | |

| What does the term "Speed" mean in a speaker? I think it falls into what the Brits refer to as PRaT - Paced Rhythm and Timing. Of course Prat is also British slang for:an incompetent, stupid, or foolish person; an idiot.2. a person’s buttocks.I supposed this is another dumb joke. Maybe you'r... | |
| What does the term "Speed" mean in a speaker? I don't understand why manufacturers don't post 0-60 and 1/4 mile times?It would make speaker selection much easier. You can't be serious. | |
| What does the term "Speed" mean in a speaker? Speakers with better transient response are more revealing and can easily be made to sound crappy with bad or poorly set up equipment which I think is why some people have a jaundiced opinion of them particularly horns which are also not easy to... | |
| What does the term "Speed" mean in a speaker? Has anyone heard Martin Logan speakers? The electrostatic panel plays the mid and treble while the woofer plays the low frequencies.I always felt like the woofer was slightly lagging behind as if the bass and the upper frequencies were playing sli... | |
| What does the term "Speed" mean in a speaker? Another way of talking about "speed" is "lack of stored energy." I supposed that has more to do with "driver break up" or suffering from "impedance anomaly". Paper cones may have a clean water fall plot, but an aluminum cones may have "faster ... | |
| Was the Snell Secret a Wide Baffle? Erik, your other thread about “this being a great time to build a speaker” got me thinking about the A26. I would recommend www.diyaudio.com | |
| What does the term "Speed" mean in a speaker? Here is a question: if both speakers have the same frequency response, why does one speaker have better speed vs the other? Another question: if one speaker uses a 4in. driver for the midrange, the other uses a 6.5in driver for the midrange, and ... | |
| Was the Snell Secret a Wide Baffle? There is definitely debate between wide baffle vs narrow baffle. Objectively, wide baffle has diffraction issue at low frequency whereas the narrow baffle diffraction happens at higher frequency. Subjectively, wide baffle does not quite have the... | |
| Need Perfect Speakers for Acoustically Hostile Placement Then it hit me—center speakers are designed for horizontal placement. Actually center speakers are often designed with horizontal orientation is purely for cosmetic reason NOT for acoustic reason. | |
| Need Perfect Speakers for Acoustically Hostile Placement The most perfect speaker is Ms. Kate Upton but you probably can't afford her :-) But seriously, I don't think there is anything perfect. In general, speakers with well behaved bass usually are easier to place. If a speakers too bright then it w... | |
