| I've got the Feeva.. and the prescription ain't more cowbell! "Well, Doctor, what do You think?"*cough* Well, it seems like a case of FSS (Fresh System Staging) in which the patient exhibits all the signs of satiation. After all the physical and mental effort, they're lulled into thinking they've got a han... | |
| Help Me Choose Timber Nation Rack-- All Wood or Threaded Rod? Wood, Home Depot, but basically 'scraps'.The stone shelves are 'drops' from the countertop/slab shop next door. Y'all might inquire at a local shop. You'd be surprised by what they toss. | |
| Help Me Choose Timber Nation Rack-- All Wood or Threaded Rod? I'm using two 1" thick shelves of granite suspended on 4x4 posts tapered at their bottoms. It's the equivalent of a concrete sofa...and you wouldn't want to stub a toe on it. Concrete floor.Vibration isn't an issue here. | |
| How do I integrate my Equipment.. My 2 cents...I'd use the Trans Sound to drive the Crown driving the Dals. Use the Onkyo for 'source' for the Trans and to run the rest of the show. Not the best solution, but workable. Probably close to what you're doing already...Faced with yo... | |
| The illusion of soundstage. tostados, agreed, the engineer 'sets the stage'...virtually, but that's the modern recording studio for ya....not to mention the other 'enhancments' that can be dialed in.I suspect that given current tech might allow a certain level of 'ambiance' ... | |
| New Bamboo Speakers Feedback Interesting...I had thought this thread had been taken down. Perhaps reinstated? No matter...Bruno, good luck with the KS foray, hope the niche finds you and the product irresistible. *G*I have own campaign of a sort...*S* | |
| Is my room going to suck I agree with the long wall/near field, a rug...Room sounds 'live', although that can a positive with some speakers. I'm a big fan of active eq and 'going flat' in spaces like yours. Your sub will definitely 'rule the room', so keep it leashed. ;... | |
| The illusion of soundstage. erik's got it sussed, and geoff's got the clues....HRTF is why headphones work so well, and the 'ambient' (whether real or 'created') is what we experience with any given pair of speakers to a greater or lesser degree. And then we devolve into wh... | |
| Are audiophiles still out of their minds? Just popped in to see if this slow-motion car wreck is still in progress...Yup.*aims the remote* | |
| The illusion of soundstage. Or, in my case and situation, I'm running Walsh drivers which are omnis. I've a 'soundstage' that 'extends' not only to the sides but also in front and behind the drivers. Placement within the given space and the surrounding objects (or lack of ... | |
| New Bamboo Speakers Feedback The 'orb' shape should be nice acoustically, no standing waves. If the interior cu. in. can be matched up to the drivers, there's possibilities there. I'm surprised they're not ported, which would make sense for such a small object. Most small ... | |
| Are audiophiles still out of their minds? Watts...*applause* Well and succinctly said...Gentlemen, let's agree to disagree and return to whatever we ought to be doing, or would prefer to be doing. The angels on the head of this pin will carry on or not without further attention.Good nig... | |
| Are audiophiles still out of their minds? bdp24...*L* Hey, I'm just happy that someone else shares my appreciation of the BDDDB's 'musical deviance'. And just so no one gets cranky on us for going 'off topic' in this thread, well, Yes, some audiophiliacs are crazy in dimensions that don... | |
| Are audiophiles still out of their minds? "My pink half of the drainpipe...keeps me safe from YOU!"...from Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, 'The Doughnut in Granny's Greenhouse'(Liner note: "I am disabled. I play Mozart and Paganini. Please help me".)No. *L* N/AFrom the same album: "Can blue men... | |
| Are audiophiles still out of their minds? jmcgrogan2...Yeah, it all resembles a 'bitch fest' of monumental proportions...nobody's ever happy, no resolutions, no exit strategy, no cures, whiner diners...*L* I swear, sometimes it seems Mapman and moi' seem to be the only posters that are r... |
