| Sloped baffle 07-06-14: Sounds_real_audioI have a question. If an 18kHz sound left its' source and a 30Hz sound wave left its source at the same time. would they both get to the listener at the same time?No, they would not. If you have the driver creating the 1... | |
| Sloped baffle Let's assume we have a single dynamic cone speaker with a pass band of 35Hz to 20K Hz. Let's forget about high frequency beaming and cone breakup. Just assume this hypothetical speaker has a flat frequency response within its pass band, as measure... | |
| Sloped baffle Bifwynne,I would very much like Roy J to jump in here & answer your question.....Meanwhile, have you read Roy's white paper on "Time & Phase Coherence" on his website?http://greenmountainaudio.com/time-and-phase-coherence/when you read thi... | |
| Sloped baffle 07-06-14: Bifwynne......The tweeter uses an ultra low mass...........Similarly, the mid driver uses an extremely light and strong cobolt/aluminum cone.....Bifwynne, do you see what's happening here in the Paradigm drivers?? they are being made lig... | |
| Sloped baffle Lewinskih01....What would be premium brands sound-wise?....Well not sure how many of these brands are still accessible to the public but.....Scanspeak makes some very good drivers, another excellent brand for woofers is Audax & Peerless, yet a... | |
| Sloped baffle Lewinskih01,it appears that you are going down the path of (Boothroyd-Stuart) Meridian (the UK-based company). If you were able to stuff your amps into your speaker, you'd have an active loudspeaker like Meridian's along with your DSP x-over. OK, ... | |
| Sloped baffle 07-05-14: KiddmanYes, I do doubt your experience and you sure sound like a guy with no technical education and little technical aptitude. Anyone who is fixated on one aspect of design and thinks it guarantees something is usually one who has littl... | |
| Sanders 10c Owners 07-06-14: CerrotThe sweet spot is the sweetest spot. It sounds three demensional, involving, incredible. It is not bad at all out of the sweetspot .....that's what I thought too when I listened to them at RMAF2013. The room was very active & I... | |
| Sloped baffle Bifwynne, yes, I think you have the list. Single-driver speakers are also time coherent (since they dont have a x-over to begin with) but they might not have the freq range extension you are looking for.Some of the latest generation Martin-Logans ... | |
| Sloped baffle 07-05-14: KiddmanFor a ubitiquous speaker that shows good time alignment, look no further than Vandersteen Model 2............So there you have a great example: a manufacturer that makes a barely passable (to my standards) time coherent speaker...... | |
| Sloped baffle 07-04-14: Kiddman........I have to submit that time coherence is not the driving factor in speaker sound. Put another way: an absolutely horrible, highly distorted speaker that is time coherent could easily be made,.....Kiddman, I'm afraid you are... | |
| Sloped baffle Thanks for chiming in Roy. :-) Thanks for the explanation in your long post. | |
| B&W DM604 S2 worthy upgrade from DM603 ? Smhyde, Tls49 has been very helpful here re. info & pricing. I just wanted to add my 2 cents re. pricing: I bought my DM604S2 back in 2001 brand new from the retail store for less than $800/speaker. They always went for a discount. I.E. the st... | |
| B&W DM604 S2 worthy upgrade from DM603 ? long time back I used to own these speakers & wrote a review over on AudioAsylum http://db.audioasylum.com/mhtml/m.html?forum=speakers&n=126156&highlight=DM604S2+review+Bombaywalla&r=&search_url=%2Fcgi%2Fsearch.mpl%3Fsearchtext... | |
| Sloped baffle Hi Ngjockey,OK, thanks for the clarification. :-)In GMA's specs, they state phase shift acoustically over given frequencies. Does that mean impedance phase (reactance) or total phase? Either way, impressive. this is really a question for Roy Johns... |
