Finally found THE SPEAKER!!! I have received some other posts that I believe have been removed before I could respond still complaining that this is spam, advertisement, etc...If you look at when I joined this group it was in May 7, 2017. Boy I sure played the long game to st... | |
Finally found THE SPEAKER!!! @ericsch Yes I am starting with the basics. Again you and others are complaining that they dynamic range of Theatrical Film mixes is too great for your liking. Period.When the the film says "Directed by Ericsch" (or whatever your name is) then you... | |
Finally found THE SPEAKER!!! @dukeofdoowop DUDE!!! That is an awesome setup!!! Yes I get the upgrade bug part of your post. I think that is half the fun of this hobby.I love the McIntosh gear. Always have been a huge fan.One other question... what are the dimensions of your r... | |
Finally found THE SPEAKER!!! @invalid Thank you for your response. I have never heard the Duetta Sigs. I bet they sound AWESOME!!! I am now a fan of the technology.How do they hold up over time. This is still a concern of mine. I am so used the traditional speaker designs and... | |

Finally found THE SPEAKER!!! @french_fries I get it. My favorite film is Citizen Kane. Transformers and Marvel films are not really my cup of tea either. But there are plenty of other dynamic films that are not stupid comic book stuff. I would put a stereo pair of Wisdom Audi... | |
Finally found THE SPEAKER!!! @dukeofdoowop Hi Duke... I think I may have addressed some of your questions, but not directly so I will try to do that here.When you say over modulated, do you mean "distorted" or just louder than what you think they should be? We use over modula... | |
Finally found THE SPEAKER!!! @french_friesI hear your frustration and the films you gave as examples are action films. When we are mixing these films for Theatrical release we strive for dynamic range on purpose. We monitor the mixes in carefully calibrated dub stages with EQ... | |
Finally found THE SPEAKER!!! @nordicnormThank you. Yes I have been looking at that very option in particular with the Crown amps. I need a lot of power with multiple amps. If I was only doing stereo my amp choice would be much easier. It will be a lot of amps rack mounted and... | |
Finally found THE SPEAKER!!! I get that everyone has their own opinions on stuff. That doesn't invalidate another's opinion. They are just that.I had not posted before on this site because of this very belief. Most speaker arguments come down to how you the individual hear th... | |
Finally found THE SPEAKER!!! @almirante You are entitled to your own opinions. It is a free country! These are my opinions. Just that.@wweiss I understand your feelings about that religious experience. I had that with listening to a pair of Focal Grande Utopias at my dealers ... | |
Finally found THE SPEAKER!!! @tvad EXACTLY!!!I use that example all the time! A scary movie ceases to be scary without the sound! And that is the more obvious ones. The subtle stuff that we do affects people just as much but isn't as in their face.Sound is at least 50% of the... | |
Finally found THE SPEAKER!!! Audio is a very difficult thing to discuss. In fact when working with directors I usually ask them to give me an emotional road map of what they want to feel when and where. The I can construct an audio map to affect those emotions. My job is not ... | |
