| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused m-db California is beautiful and I love it, I grew up in the Sierra Nevada mountains then ended up in LA doing sound. Idaho is very conservative and nearly everyone here is from California. Having an audio mentor is so powerful, I had to make eve... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused kota1 Sorry for the dumb question but how do I set up my "virtual system" on Audiogon? I have some pictures of my room also. | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused kota1 On my 2 channel and home theater system I us the Paradigm 9hs. I was so disappointed with their bass output, I have PS Audio BHK 300 Mono amps that are part tube and part mosfet. I had to add 2 subs to make the speakers sound better. Ironic ... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused kota1 I suspect you know a lot about psychoacoustics and audio placebo effects. I started in acoustics, went to live sound then movie sound in my career all the while studying physics. I can't imaging people spending hundreds of thousands on sound... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused jerryg123 your post reminds me of a continual conversation with a friend who worked at a vintage guitar store. This guy knows practically every guitar setup for every band you can imagine, he sells rare guitars to very rich musicians all the time.... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused lonemountain and ghasley great examples. Here's what we need to consider, we all know designing amps for specific speakers and visa versa is probably the best leap forward in sound quality. But: We need to understand psychoacoustics and the hug... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused Audiophile 12 step program part 7 principle. If your speaker are sponsored by F1 cars, they don't go fast or thunder down straightaways like F1 cars, if you buy F1 speakers it does not mean you are cool like F1 drivers. Audiophiles, get out of b... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused kenjit You asked about how an amp can be designed toward a particular speakers driver. As I'm sure you know impedance changes due to frequency, a very low frequency signal at a loud volume creates a low impedance. Not all amps are designed to b... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused I love Genelec speakers (I spent 200k +) but they are only the example of a speaker with the design concept of making an amplifier with a speaker in mind. Meyer Sound is probably the best example of this, Meyer Sound is more of a concert speaker b... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused m-db I'm going to make a movie and do the picture editing and sound myself so I bought the equipment, the studio is in my house, the room looks over a beautiful lake but it's not for public consumption. I live in Eagle Idaho, I'm a political refug... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused edgyhassle 30 years ago at an AES convention I got to talk to John Meyer about this question, he thought there was no way to design the most accurate sound reproduction system without the speaker being designed for the amp and visa versa isn't eve... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused If an engineer can build an amplifier specifically designed for the components of a particular speaker and the way they react to each other electronically the engineer can design the amplifier so that it matches the needs of its drivers and crosso... | |
| DAC Shootout Starts This Weekend I learned something important in the 35 years I was a professional sound man and that is your brain is the great equalizer, you will have the best idea of the sound in the first few seconds the only time your brain doesn’t have time to normalize y... | |
| I just bought a Steinway which sounds like a banjo. Terminology is wonderful, in the studio every producer, engineer and musician must communicate with terminology that is meant to relate a feeling in the sound. Very rarely will a musician say I need 605hz taken down 3.5 db but it does happen somet... | |
| Paradigm Persona: what do you think? I own 9hs, the persona center, 4 Bs for surround, with BHK monoblocks, BHK Preamp. I love the speakers but there is no low end, so I got a couple JL 113v2 subs now everything sound really good. I would never buy these speakers without the subs, th... |
