| Dipole speakers, subwoofers and that rear wall If you are using a diffusor you must understand that a true diffusor is based on mathematical properties and not random variations in a surface. Not saying that these arent true diffusors but you have to be careful. My diffusors were made by RPG a... | |
| Dipole speakers, subwoofers and that rear wall I wouldnt dampen I would diffuse. You should be O.K. if you are at least 3 feet from the diffusors. | |
| After years of separates, I'm going integrated. Anyone else do the same? The only integrated that I have seen lately that excites me is the Trilogy Audio. I had both a First Watt and XA30.8 and never could warm to either piece. I will say that Pass has among the best customer service I have encountered. | |
| Dipole speakers, subwoofers and that rear wall The rear wave is not what these speakers are all about it is just, with most designs, a necessary evil. What you should try to do is minimize the downside to dipoles and then attempt to make them as accurate as possible. Listen to Duke's advice fr... | |
| Speaker Recommendation Help Please. If you are considering Wilson speakers do not buy any with the old tweeter. | |
| Dipole speakers, subwoofers and that rear wall This is the main problem with dipoles. My suggestion is do everything possible to cancel or diffuse that rear wave. Bring the speakers out into the room as much as possible and then put something behind the speakers to deal with the rear wave. The... | |
| 2nd systems- who’s got one? I have a second system and a garage system. I have been looking for a pair of older Klipsch for my garage but they cant be found at reasonable prices these days. | |
| I want to move from Rega Planar 6 help me to pick a new turntable I have never heard a Rega that I liked. I think that similarly priced Project tables sounded better. I really havent liked the limited number of Rega cartridges that I have heard. | |
| Does Anyone Buy Schiit for the Sake of Schiit? No better or worse to look down on those who spend less than to generalize about those who spend more and ascribe to these people motivations that you dont find kosher. Who cares why people buy what they buy and why even discuss it as it no ones b... | |
| Neutral, transparent, warm Well piano and the human voice are difficult, to be sure. Harbeth fans always describe how the Harbeth does voice so well and to my ears voices sound colored and too nuanced through these speakers. Having said this I would rather listen to a pair ... | |
| Cornwall IV – new amp vs crossover upgrade Well if you want the best amp for horns but one that doesnt editorialize an OTL would be high on my list. | |
| Cornwall IV – new amp vs crossover upgrade First get a good medium powered tube amp. I have heard horns, regardless of sensitivity, eat lower powered SET amps alive. Older Klipsch didnt present the amp with the best impedance load, but perhaps the new speakers are better. After getting a... | |
| Neutral, transparent, warm To me warm and neutral are mutually exclusive. I think that transparent is also difficult to meld with warm. Perhaps a speaker can be both transparent and warm at different frequencies. I will use the Harbeth "house" sound as an example. Warm yes,... | |
| Does Anyone Buy Schiit for the Sake of Schiit? Why to which point? | |
| Does Anyone Buy Schiit for the Sake of Schiit? I love the way people take criticism of equipment personally. Even more humorous are those of us who lecture others regarding spending habits and posit motivations for such "foolish" expenditures. Such insecurity must be grounded in jealousy or so... |
