High Fidelity Sound Speaker
Crossovers are not superior they are an intrinsic problem in which success is measured by the least damage done. High sensitivity is also, when are other aspects are equal, superior. Issue at hand is what sacrifices must be made to  achieve result...

Please stop feeding the stray cat! Problem is that you guys are laughing at him which he may perceive as legitimate interest or perverse support.  There really are no words which means those of us on this forum should do what exactly?  
Better Sounding Systems, Objectivists or Subjectivists?

Rega Planar 3 : Heavily upgraded yet produces a sound that I don't like
I would not consider anything by Rega. I think that the lower levels tables are bested by other manufacturers and the higher end tables are miles behind the competition. A friend replaced his RP8 with a 20 year old Townsend Rock and the difference...

Gratitude and Thanksgiving
Well I am thankful for the fact that secretguy isnt my dad, uncle, friend or even casual acquaintance.

Things will vibrate regardless of weight. Worst possible scenario is a speaker with thin walls that vibrates. What do you think the cabinet does when it vibrates?

Yeah I would tend to listen to the manufacturer rather than take the advice of hobbyists myself included. There is no one size fits all in this game and the requirements of a speaker are very different than that of a turntable. Take REL's advice.

I can think of any number of reasons why you wouldnt want a speaker (sub or not) moving even the tiniest bit in space. What happens to the energy when you put a speaker on springs? Or is it like the Harbeth theory that the energy is drained throug...
