What are the specs of a full range speaker?
Muralman, well by going with a 3 way, the single 8inch will bring in the lower hz's that I;m missing with the dual 7's MTMdesign. Fidelity is not the issue, as its the same Seas' drivers. Its that a single 7 acting as the midwoofer in the 3 way (8... 
Cayin 265Ai integrated...anyone have one?
I just went to amp topic and see a thread on Vac, from there someone mentioned Canary. Which is a new name to me. i googled Canary here on the gon and see a listing for a Canary 100 cdp/tube. I looked at the guts from photos on the Canary web. Rea... 
Cayin 265Ai integrated...anyone have one?
Cayin does offer excellent value. The 265 I believe is their ss design, which to me is a "fluke" , since Cayin makes superb amps at incredible price points. Ghost I did make a post about the Cayin 15 and the 17. I firstr bought the 15 used here on...

Md you lost me. back to the idea of full range, options/tradeoffs. 
Pick your poison...2-channel or multi?
I see there is contention over the idea of multiple drivers. I don;t want to get too involved in this thead as i'm more interested in the one about full range/not so full range comparisons/benifits/compromises. But my 2 cents is that I;'ve yet to ... 
What are the specs of a full range speaker?
Ok so a woofer at -3db/30hz may be more ideal than a woofer that produces -1db/30hz's IOW one that voices too much bass of 30hz (-1db)is offering an out of balance image with the rest of the speakers drivers, correct?I just looked up the db defini... 
What are the specs of a full range speaker?
Hifi this is a great thread, which has a lot of life ahead, many more astute observations will be presented before we get to the "bottom" of things. Issues not addressed properly, or at least not fully explored as is being done here. No speaker is... 
What are the specs of a full range speaker?
Mdhoover has raised a excellent observation. How steep is the roll off. Though a speaker goes to say 30, how is the graph angle look like from say 40hz down to 30hz? And for those who calim they want the "last little drops" of the music, how is th... 
Zu on Zu
I think phil does raise an interesting observation, that is some of us go in listening to a speaker and fail to grasp how close the sound images the instrument, at the moment of recording, or say an orch live at concert. I arely go to concerts, bu... 
What are the specs of a full range speaker?
Thanks for clarifying. I've never heard a 'super"tweeter before. But I imagine its "super"imposing something on the recorded medium. Adding something that is "really' not there. You have Apogee's correct? Thats a panel ribbon yes? Well those do no... 
What are the specs of a full range speaker?
Tvad, you are not understanding what Muralman is alluding to about the "supertweet" 's ability to hit the 23K-25K+ range. What he is getting at is , just because the hz's are produced, are they being "mechanically fabricated" that is are the super... 
What are the specs of a full range speaker?
supertweeter = superhype. Suupertweets are good for HT sound effects, nothing more. 
What are the specs of a full range speaker?
Mural I just googled Scintilla, and came up with Apogee Scintilla Sterophile review by AHC. Once agin I do not understand much of what he is saying, and hardly believe a word on the things i do understand. Once agin audio reviews are near worthles... 
What are the specs of a full range speaker?
Tvad why would you be "more likely" interested in a speaker that goes down to 25hz /model A slightly less interested in speaker B that "only" goes down to 30hz. Like someone mentioned the most important factor is how well does the speaker perform ... 
What are the specs of a full range speaker?
Muralman:"all I know is most systems are truly deficient in the 20-20Khz range(meaning problems in qulility of reproduction of the original source)..I don't knwo why anyone would want to perfect what they can't hear, before they (first) get right,...
