| Subwoofer speed is in the room, not the box John Hunter of REL just has a different philosophy about how to use subwoofers. Not saying it's wrong, just different. As @tomic601 alluded to earlier I come from a different school of thought, one taught to me by Roger Modjeski (designer of the e... | |
| Subwoofer speed is in the room, not the box @audiokinesis is not wrong, but the SWARM solution, like adding EQ, and traps, is probably NOT what audiophiles expect when they first think of adding a sub. Again I agree, but audiophiles are less about education and more about aimless tweakin... | |
| Value of a preamp? The one value that rarely gets mentioned is the ability to control the interconnect such that it eliminates any artifacts. However, this will only happen with a pre-amp that supports the balanced line standard (AES-48) and connected to an amplifie... | |
| Subwoofer speed is in the room, not the box Excellent bass should be clear like air or water and evidence itself only by the scale and dynamic range of the music being played and seemingly come out of nowhere and ignores the physical size of the room. I agree and the way I achieved this ... | |
| Bending Sound In the video he uses a Marchand electronic crossover (which I highly recommend) to frequency divide the signal after the preamp and before the amps (80 Hz low pass goes to one amp that powers the passive woofers, 80 Hz high pass to another amp tha... | |

The outlet tester and cheater plug are also worth looking i... | |
| Passive preamps - differences between technologies You might want to consider how someone that designs a passive implements it and don't underestimate what the "switch" adds to the mix. For example, in a resistor-based passive you can have shunt, ladder, or series type attenuators. You might also ... | |
| Invert ? Clark Johnsen has written a lot of pieces about absolute phase and polarity. He was a lot of fun to hang out with at the Las Vegas shows and we often had dinner with him and a few other industry folks, including the late Arthur Loesch, at a local ... | |
| Invert ? The booklet The Wood Effect was written by Clark Johnsen. If you do a search you will find a number of sources that discuss this topic. I had met Clark a number of times at audio shows as he made it a point of coming to our room to hang out. He al... | |
| Spendor SP 1/2e....TECH HELP NEEDED! You have an excellent speaker and it's well worth replacing the damaged parts. I first bought my 1/2e's in 2002, sold them 10 years later, then bought another set in 2017 and this pair isn't going anywhere. The new Spendor Classic series pales in ... | |

| Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing @docroasty Use the shorting plug if you are using the RCA inputs on the amp. You insert the plug into pins 1 and 3 of the XLR input. |
