| Who actually uses digital speakers? Hi Erik, Sorry for misspelling your name, my bad. I try not to talk about my products specifically but use them as an example of what is possible. I think many people here are not always clear on the terminology related to DSP, ASP, active syste... | |
| Who actually uses digital speakers? Eric, Active speaker systems with all discreet components certainly add a layer of complexity but also have tons of flexibility. We actually use different crossover points to dial in a system along with more conventional amplitude adjustments and... | |
| Who actually uses digital speakers? I respectfully and strongly disagree with the broad statement that DSP applied makes music sound like crap. Broad and adamant statements are a disservice to the audio community. DSP is applied everywhere there is digital, from recording to master... | |
| Who actually uses digital speakers? Don’t forget that all active systems that use DSP are not the same or equal. Our Apollo system can be configured several way and the owner can use any amps or front end they want. Our customers use low power SET amps to mid power SS and anything ... | |
| Oh Room Correction, how Far You've not Gotten "So I would need 18 channels of amplification not counting the bass to run a pair of these speakers ?" No. The Apollo system processor has four channels total, two channels per side. Each tower is on its own channel and each woofer module (or mu... | |
| Oh Room Correction, how Far You've not Gotten @djones51 Yes, Trinnov is part of our speaker system. Our Apollo 9 system comes with two 9 driver AMT towers, 2 woofers modules (each containing two 10" long throw woofers), 2KW amp for the woofers and the DSP unit. 22 high quality drivers in t... | |
| Oh Room Correction, how Far You've not Gotten Erik, Yes, the low crossover point makes it easier. Building AMT drivers with a range from 120Hz to 24KHz, not so easy. Our raw towers have some interesting characteristics. There are different parameters designing a speaker system knowing it wil... | |
| Are Black Ravioli products sold in the US? I'm not sure they are imported into the USA at this time. I had the opportunity to try a set under our line-stage at the last Rock Mountain Audio Fest held at the original location. I'm not a major tweak-er but I do believe everything can matter.... | |
| Oh Room Correction, how Far You've not Gotten Erik, I understand what you are saying. AutoRC doesn't do all and doesn't take into account a few things like personal preferences and an individual's hearing. We always tweak the system's auto-optimization. There are many manual settings to play... | |
| Oh Room Correction, how Far You've not Gotten Erik, It's good to hear from someone who, at least, is open minded about DSP/Room Correction. First, by definition, DSP exists everywhere there is a digital signal. Furthermore, the term "room correction" is a bit misleading. These systems do not... | |
| Large room with low budget for speakers How big is your room? | |
| Audio Clubs - Charlotte, NC, Lake Norman Area, Mooresville, NC I’m on Lake Wylie (southwest Charlotte). | |
| Audio Clubs - Charlotte, NC, Lake Norman Area, Mooresville, NC I haven’t been able to find many audio enthusiasts in the Charlotte area. We moved here from the northeast about ten years ago. There are many audio enthusiasts there. I have a dedicated audio room and enjoy sharing a few tunes with audio enthusi... | |
| Do larger planar speakers produce more accurate sound? Disclosure: Speaker designer (planars too) and Manufacturer. The OP's question is: Do larger planar speakers produce more accurate sound? The challenge of answering the question is that "accurate sound" is not well defined. If he is asking about... | |
| American Made Audio Products Full disclosure - Speaker designer-manufacturer I like to believe that most manufactures try to be honest with their Made in USA claims. There are government guidelines in some cases. In some cases US made parts at competitive prices don't exist ... |
