Who said “ flat freq response “ is the best?
This IS a very complex and interesting topic. Have a studio that is tuned carefully to flat response and a listening room that is catered towards dense orchestral sources.Find that the studio is crystal clear but in a direct way that many listener...

totalwex:Am using Double Impacts, upgraded, and with REW creating a convolution file (impulse and filters) and importing this into JRiver have a resulting flat room response (meaning, all electronics and room) from +/- 5db from 16 to 30k. This is ...

General information, please...Am getting ready to make an offer on an Audiogon item and have never done this before. The seller is new to the site and I am wondering how best to arrange for payment. Is there a way for Audiogon to hold the monies u... 
Who has Luv for the Lyngdorf 2170 and is thinking about the 3400.
Your sub goes down to 14 hz -- which handles almost all musical instruments in the world save a few very large pipe organs that have pipes going down 6 cps more to 8 cps.So your most excellent sub is close to handling all of the world's bass instr...

grey9hound:Close, but not complete. The 64 foot stop on a pipe organ goes down to 8 cps.But then again, there are only 2 or 3 of these organs left in the world. And they're hardly ever regulated well. And you can't hear it, of course. But it can m...

uberwaltz:I have this sub and can attest to its even frequency response from 16 to 150hz and a tremendous amount of energy through the entire range. The two ports are tunable:https://www.audiogon.com/listings/lis90776-hsu-research-vtf-3-monitorsAn...

Don't have a 2170 but am always working with subs and SVS and HSU are two of the top brands. SVS has the new DSP options well developed and HSU is spectacular with low frequency evenness down to 16hz.Might be some used ones around in the $400 pric...

dlcockrum:Agree with most of your informed description......however,have just had a young female diagnosed with Syringomelia and it is not uncommon in the USA -- roughly 15% of US cavaliers eventually contract this condition. About 95% of Cavalier...

dlcockrum:I congratulate you on your dog's health and am sad to inform you that Cavalier Spaniels are among the most unhealthy of canine breeds. They are known for their heart, throat, and, especially, neck problems (Syringomyelia). Many of these ...

Thanks, Grey9hound.Dave: five is enough for ten vets; they are not a healthy breed. But, then, there is the lapdog love. Other breeds are amateurs by comparison... 
Tekton Double Impacts
Grey9hound:Yes, very helpful and thanks for the effort. See that there are 4-legged options available.Which specific model did you choose? The depth appears to be 14 inches on most and I wonder if that is sufficient for the 17 1/2 DI depth. Do you...

david_ten:Congrats on your stunning system and the very helpful DI closeup. What is the stand under the Gliders? Is this a Herbies product?Don't have children (anymore) but do have 5 active cavalier spaniels that will attack anything with teeter p... 
Tekton Double Impacts
Grey9hound et al:So, your assessment is that they offer significant improvement compared to Herbies Threaded Gliders? Noted that they were 3 legged. Any danger of tipping?
