| USING SPEAKER TECHNOLOGY TO KICK OPEN DOORS I think the idea here is that the equal and opposite force is the door giving way. I can certainly imagine using such a device on a solid concrete wall would give a similar effect as not holding onto a baseball bat hard enough. Boing! Try to think... | |
| Case of the dissapearing Bass I didn't get a chance to read all of the above comments but I will tell you to check the phase. Use a nine volt battery and a small wire lead, touch the leads to the speaker wire at your amp (disconnect them from the amp first!). The positive lead... | |
| Is the marantz SR7007 a good receiver? I have to say that I am hard pressed to remember any thing named Marantz that I didn't like. I use a Pioneer Elite SC-61 in my office and the spec sheets are almost identical, as far as what you listed anyway. I'm positive the Marantz has better t... | |
| Shelf for VPI scout I read a book on acoustics a long time ago that listed the properties of various woods, drywall, tile, insulation, and many more that I can't recall. Although I can't remember the name of the book I'm sure you could find something similar at your ... | |
| Best sub for the money A very tricky question as I don't know your tastes. I've got a customer in South Africa that hand builds Subs for SPL & SQ car audio competitions and, given his economy, he may be able to beat any price you could find. But could you trust him?... | |
| Worth repairing JBL L100t3 speakers? If the sound quality of those drivers were worth it before they stopped working, then I would say yes. And as far as finding a suitable replacement, well that's easy. Even if you can't come by the originals or new surrounds for them. Just measure ... | |
| USING SPEAKER TECHNOLOGY TO KICK OPEN DOORS Thank you all for your comments, I honestly expected them to be much worse than they are.......I have to say that the rail gun is part inspiration for this idea. Just cap off the ends. I also like the idea of using a pressure switch to eliminate t... | |
| Sealed, Ported, or Passive Radiators? 01-27-13: Rower30, Actually I have all my subs stacked into a small 10 foot by 6 foot area, I was aware that using so many subs in a system can cause a lot of phase issues. So I tried to keep everything on a wall radiating together, along with adj... | |
| Sealed, Ported, or Passive Radiators? 01-10-13: Rower30, I agree that some of my sustained SPL levels are certainly high enough. I am quite aware that my tastes are off pace with the normal:-) And definitely agree that it is very difficult to get everybody to cooperate, all the differ... | |
| Does my acoustic ideology make me an outcast? First of all, thank you all for comments, it's been a long time since I've been able to talk to any one that even had a clue about what I was saying......01-09-13: Mapman, "Made In The U.S.A." is a thought I just had, as I was just finishing up so... | |
| Sealed, Ported, or Passive Radiators? 01-06-13: Rower30, I agree with your take on how passives sound and work, we just have a difference in opinion about how much bandwidth should be available from a system. To be taken to the literal edge would mean constructing an I.E.D. series of ... | |
| Has anyone experianced Synesthesia? 01-04-13: Peter_s, There is only one way I know how to "sell your soul" while keeping your dignity intact. You have to do it for reasons that are much more noble than personal profit. Perhaps I thought that my children's future was more important ... | |
| Does my acoustic ideology make me an outcast? 01-03-13: Mapman, Finally someone who gets it! What people should be paying for is skill not brand names, and maybe, just maybe, that can make "Made in the U.S.A." great again.01-04-13: Antigrunge, I've heard a few setups that acted as you said "l... | |
| Sealed, Ported, or Passive Radiators? 01-04-13: Mapman, I used to religiously use ported subs as well and for a long time couldn't be talked out of it. Then I was shown an extremely large transmission line system and liked that even better. But as far as performance in a variety of si... | |
| Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive? It certainly has the electrical power required for a good SPL competition vehicle.:-)Andrew Synesthesia Studios |
