| Sloped baffle Hi Roy,good to note that you are back on this thread & have been kind enough to give us your time on this subject. Thanks!yes, I personally have looked at the waveforms (on the photobucket.com website) you pointed us to. I understand it much b... | |
| Kimber 8TC beater? Almarg, thanks for seconding my comments. :-) | |
| Kimber 8TC beater? 07-13-14: BifwynnePc123v .... cool your jets until I finish my romex experiment. Pure copper ... ultra pure ... hyper pure. Dielectric properties of insulation. Reminds me of the Space Balls movie when the baddies went to "Ludicrous Speed." Voodoo... | |
| Sloped baffle Short of outboard active crossovers, I'm starting to get the sense that mechanical (e.g., sloped baffles) and electrical (i.e., 1st order X-overs),....cool, I like that! :-)I believe that the user community should demand more time-coherent speaker... | |
| Analyzing the power from the outlet Rodman99999, thanks for the links to PowerVar products. I enjoyed watching Part2 & Part3 & found the info useful. | |
| great headphone amplification in vintage gear? I'm using a 1977 vintage Yamaha CA-2010 with BeyerDynamic DT880s. Very nice sonics.... | |
| Listening Fatigue & Speakers in Small Room BTW, if it turns out that I do need new speakers, do you folks have recommendations for really good monitors? Thanks, again.Rlb61 you know, I'm a time-coherent speaker kind-of-guy. So, I'm going to recommend Green Mountain Audio speakers (they are... | |
| Amp question for Maggies A little analysis to illustrate your situation, if I may:from a 1999 Stereophile review I noted that the B-weighted efficiency of your Maggie 1.6QR is 83.7dB-per-2.83V-per meter. This is into an 8 ohm load. From the same review, it looks like the ... | |
| The End Of Big Iron? I think that megawatt power amps were necessary if you could afford them + you had a big enough room for them to perform to their max to create outdoor concert-level SPLs. I seem to also think that megawatt power amps are dwindling due to the econ... | |
| Listening Fatigue & Speakers in Small Room IMHO your problems stem from the fact that B&W speakers are not time-coherent (this is a huge discussion & there are Audiogon members who are dedicated to both sides of the fence. Search the archives here if you want to learn more) & i... | |
| The right match In general, good advice from Paraneer. I took a quick look at your amp and it appears to put out 110 wpc in 8; 220 wpc into 4. That means it can adequately drive hundreds of different speakers available.I'm not so sure that this can be concluded r... | |
| Sloped baffle Thanks for this info Psag. The DSP software definitely considers having phase & time-coherence as an important aspect of its signal processing so as to have cohesive sound. This should tell us something about the importance of time-coherence i... | |
| Sloped baffle 07-07-14: BifwynneThanks again Bombaywalla. I caught the article. It doesn't speak to the impact of the speaker's electrical characteristics on phase coherence. I am totally confused here Bifwynne!! I don't understand your question - what do you m... | |
| Sloped baffle 07-07-14: Bifwynne.....I still wonder out loud whether speaker inductance as a function of frequency response in fact remains constant within the speaker's pass band. Indeed ... even if speaker inductance remains constant as a function of frequenc... | |
| Sloped baffle Hi Timlub,Ok, no problem.I believe his real question is "do all frequencies move at the same speed"yes, all freq travel at the same speed. But the answer to his question is still "No, they do not arrive at the listener's ear at the same time". I t... |
