| Ultimate challenge biggest bang speaker :) I was just pulling your chains a little, but I think we all can agree that Lowthers are an aquired taste.Having heard probably 30+ Lowther DIY systems at various DIY meets and a few at show I can honestly say that consistency amongst different ... | |
| Ultimate challenge biggest bang speaker Single drivers systems, lord have mercy on us all, that we have had to revert to the 1920's for our amplification and our speaker design. I'm beginning to think "musical" is becoming an excuse for "restricted". If it doesn't measure right or is cr... | |
| Why do intelligent people deny audio differences? This is a funny thread, Rsbeck don't mind Lrsky's touchy feely thin skin. He just uses that "no reason to get nasty" tactic to put you on the defensive. He likes to be in charge of the thread.Lrsky you will note name drops more than a teenage girl... | |
| Wilson Benesch ARC vs. other Scanspeak revelators FWIW at $5000, the ATC SCM20-A2 should be on your shopping list, some things I know for certain, no speaker currently mentioned can play louder with less distortion and has a better phase and amplitude response. Now the only question is will you f... | |

| What speaker after Thiel 7.2? Lrsky as for "beyond your limit" I meant that you were irritated about this subject. I think your personal attack proves that my presumption was correct. Mr. read everything as negative and take it personal. When you get your ASL's together we'll ... | |
| Speakers, confusion, any ideas? I have to think the Vandersteen will still be a good choice, email me for a little $400 trick i've been using to integrate subwoofers perfectly lately.There are other options out there but if you have or can get a Vandersteen it will work well. | |
| What speaker after Thiel 7.2? Lrsky,It is all relative as you say, for me and my clients $14,000 is a serious investment. When people spend that kind of money I don't think they expect compromise, I don't think they want caveats and asterisks next to the performance of their e... | |
| What speaker after Thiel 7.2? Lrsky wrote "But if you have a large room with limited room reflections from certain problematic distances they could be very good. Most people would say they are fairly good speakers, despite what one writer here said.Lrsky, Does fairly good cut ... | |

| Do Any High End Speakers Boogie/Rock? BW 804 Blues So your solution was to spend more on your electronics than on your speakers? That makes a good deal of sense.Measure your speakers sometime than explain to me how its response makes it a rock and roll speaker. If your explanation is convincing th... | |
| What makes a speaker perform well at low volume? Thanks for the comments Trelja,This thread was beginning to worry me, I was getting the feeling that this was a complicated problem LOL! With only mythical and very expensive solutions.I can't believe all the gyrations people think they need to go... | |
| Do Any High End Speakers Boogie/Rock? BW 804 Blues 804's like the other Nautilus speakers are too bright and that brightness makes them very unforgiving which means 90% of your CD's don't sound good. Just measure one sometime and you'll understand why your ears are getting sawed off with heavy roc... | |

Well, 1st thing, study the Fletcher-Munson curve to help define how your hearing changes at varying dB's, then measure the average spl at which you listen to music.
