Legacy Audio Focus XD - Gain Matching Issue between the internal and external amp?
@fthompson251  The Focus SE is a passive speaker. The XD is powered with multiple connection options. Their website has the specifics of each.

Before you consider changing anything in the crossover, decide if you like them the way they sound. The crossovers are simple looking because they were first order and will have a minimum number of parts. Messing with the crossover could make matt... 
All New Monitor Audio Concept-50 Time-Aligned Loudspeakers : Major-Breakthrough ?!
Don't mention the 2 companies in the same breath. Really. Thanks Karen! But I will mention what I want, where I want, when I want to. Sad that someone would be triggered by something so trivial.  
All New Monitor Audio Concept-50 Time-Aligned Loudspeakers : Major-Breakthrough ?!
The mid / tweeter array looks quite a bit like the Tekton array on multiple speakers in their line up. 6 mids in a circular configuration around a central tweeter.   
Why are there so many wooden box speakers out there?
The ones that are nuts are the ones that reply to him on each and every one of his threads. Just as nuts as he is. Has anyone gotten anywhere by doing that?  
Mur Audio SP1
I heard them at Axpona a couple of years ago and thought they were very good. They would benefit from a well blended subwoofer IMO.

Listen to the speaker designer folks. He agrees with me.  I thought all speaker designers are wrong all of the time. You have been saying that over and over for years. I guess they are ok with if they agree with any of your random ideas. But he... 
Best Examples Of Cymbal Decays On A Recording
The song "Workin' Man" from the Stanley Clarke album "If This Bass Could Only Talk". Gerry Brown plays multiple cymbal strikes on each of the cymbals in his kit as part of the intro to the song. You can hear the location and decay of each as he mo... 
Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing
@kuribo I am not chasing my tail. If he measured all of the same things and showed them to you, what difference would it make? The better question would be, what measurement result would convince you it is a good value? You have already answered... 
Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing
@kuribo  There is no mischaracterization of your comments. You have plainly stated that Purifi and Hypex are state of the art and their measurements prove it. So again, what measurement could Atmasphere provide that would prove his amp is objecti... 
Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing
"I would not pay $5000 for an amp that offers me at best similar performance to one priced at $1000- it’s a non-starter." I have stated that the amp, from an objective performance standpoint, provided that at best it performs as well as the curr... 
Legacy Audio Powerbloc 5
If I remember correctly, their two channel and mono amps of that period were made by Coda and the Powerbloc 5 was made by Enlightened Audio Designs. The Luminance amp was made by Proton. I owned a Powerbloc 5 at one point and thought it to be a go... 
Unusual Old School Way of Wiring Speakers
If I remember correctly, Fried produced a version of their model C satellite speaker (C-6?) with a special crossover and dual voice coil mid bass drivers. There was a way to connect the two speakers so that the second voice coil was out of phase a...
