| Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? Landok,There is nothing uncivilized about my post, I was just stating a fact that my two channel system likely rivals or is better than yours. ERGO;My experience is equal to yours on what two channel can do, where we disagree is with the finer poi... | |
| Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? Landok,"The idea of being able to adjust the sweet spot to your liking hints at creating imbalances within the system."Well in audiophile terms this would be like using speaker cable to change the sound, the fact that a simple press of a button fa... | |
| Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? The well known illusion of a sweet spot can only be effectively realized with a stereo sound. Landok, you have never heard a properly setup multichannel system, not only does a multichannel system have a sweet spot there's actually information com... | |
| Do Physicists Or Musicians Design Better Speakers? Paul,When you can at a minimum solder together your own crossover like my 11 year old nephew does on the subs and speakers we build, then maybe you can criticize other speaker designs. Right now your secondhand knowledge is off topic and wrong. Th... | |
| Why is 2 Channel better than multi-channel? If your pursuit is realistic sound in the home, 2 speakers never was and never will be enough. Why do you think Dipoles are so popular! 2 real, 2 virtual speakers 4 channels!Even if the instruments are only presented in front, without surround spe... | |
| Do Physicists Or Musicians Design Better Speakers? Paul,Chill out bro :), the Seas Excel drivers are very good no doubt, but your passive Crossovered THORS are a serious step down compared to the sealed active pair I just built so don't get so far out in front of yourself. Joe D'App is a great des... | |
| What to make of my system? Dweller hit the mark, Herman is 100% wrongAnalog isn't better when you have the right digital gear, one thing you lucked into is very good speakers, when your speakers aren't tipped up hot rods and your amps aren't glary over driven tubes you migh... | |
| Thiel 2.4 vs 3.6 vs cs6 - Opinions? Buy a used pair of 7.2's, the CS6 is the most underwhelming of the Thiel models as Stevecham mentioned the CS6 is the newest version of the 3.6 as its driver complement is essentially identical to the 3.6 just the price tag isn't. Fact is it had a... | |
| Electrostat transparency from conventional speaker "The physics (theory) do not agree with common sense"But the measurements do, just measure 1m from the back of the speaker and 1m from the front of a Dipole and a Monopole then measure at the listening position. Compare them, then we'll be in agre... | |
| Electrostat transparency from conventional speaker Squirrel,Yeah I agree the Electrostats are deficient to the Dynamics except the transparency part, you can see right through most electrostats...not to be confused with magneplanars. :)CDwallaceOnly reason people tolerate electrostatic speakers to... | |
| Accurate vs Musical Baroque lover wrote:"I without a doubt believe there is a difference. I have heard speakers that reproduce a recording perfectly but sounded sterile doing it. Musical to me is one that can reproduce these nuances with fluidity and emotion. I still... | |
| Speaker recommendations in the $3,500-$4,000 range Skip the Anthem power amplifier and get the new Blue Sky Big Blue monitor, about as close to the PMC for the money your spending you could ever hope to get.More bass, flatter frequency response and greater output capacity than any speaker posted s... | |
| Dali Helicons and IKONs timbre matched? They are close enough Bruce that I wouldn't hesitate using that configuration myself. | |
| Do they make Speakers For Rap/Rock "Can you give us an example of audiophile quality rap recording? Sorry."Eldarado you assume that the production quality is low on this type of music and if you bothered to listen to some of the music you would find that the producers of this music... | |
| Do they make Speakers For Rap/Rock Tacmc5Meyer Sound, ATC or Blue Sky make much more compact monitors than JBL that will easily play into the range you are looking for with the help of a subwoofer.ATC SCM20 Actives with sub, will fill a 30x30 room pretty well, if you can afford SCM... |
