| DIY speakers Northcreek gets my vote for the most refined DIY speaker company. I've heard many other DIY speakers and always come away with the impression that they are not really as refined, balanced or complete as a decent production high end speaker. North ... | |
| Sensible Sound's annual speaker recommendations I think the list is missing some gems, but I can say that I completely agree with the Sensible Sounds' assessment of each and every speaker. RARELY, rarely, rarely, rarely (did I say rarely?) do I agree with so many reviews of speakers. Typcially,... | |
| Legacy Whisper-- Opininions Tweekerman, you've got your slamming all wrong on this one. If you are going to slam the Whipsers, you better start Slamming the full range Martin Logan CLS, and why not the twice as expensive top of the line Soundlabs for that matter. How about t... | |
| Bose makes more than speakers... Bose has won more "business" awards than virtually any other consumer audio manufacturer. Is it for their products? NO! Is it for their research? NO! Is it for their innovation? NO! The business accolades that Bose recieves are for marketing and f... | |
| I'm still working to love digital, are you? Sean,In response to your question, yes I'm a big believer in Stan's work. His modifications are world class and produce more analog sounding digital than most other offerings that I've auditioned. This does not change my opinion of digital versus ... | |
| what is the best super speaker and why? "There's a new kid in town" that has the credentials to take the absolute top position in super speakers. It is called the AV Reality "LuxAR".What makes this speaker better than the rest? :The tweeter is a brand new designed special professional v... | |
| Ugliest speaker ever? SPICA ANGELES! BUTTT UGLY! | |
| Would you like to know about Dunlavy mods? Genesis,Tell me your Dunlavy speaker, and I can give you the values for each driver. These networks go directly across the driver's speaker terminals. This is a 5 minute mod per driver (once they are removed, which you can soncially evaluate for y... | |
| What's the best 7" & 8" woofers available? Bob,There are currently 8 select audiophiles who are involved in building the latest dual mono version of the pre-amp that I mentioned. It will have DACT controllers, Jensen caps, the works. The cost will come in at around $1000 and the wait is 4-... | |
| Would you like to know about Dunlavy mods? TWL, Thanks for the kudos. As you point out, the Zobels on Dunlavys are a definite mod to implement. Audiotweek,I know of 3 Dunlavy SC-IVa owners and one Althena owner who have implemented Zobels, and all are extremely pleased with the results. Th... | |
| Would you like to know about Dunlavy mods? Have you implemented zobel circuits on the drivers? I know of 5 Dunlavy owners who have done this with great success. Also, the tweeter needs to be replaced. A Morel MDT-33 makes a great drop in replacement that is much better than the stock tweeter. | |
| Opinions on the Bose 901 The total cost of build of materials for Bose 901's is less than $200.00. If Bose sold these at a reasonable mark-up, I'd say something nice about them. Since Bose's only agenda is to take as much money from unsuspecting people as they can, I have... | |
| What's the best 7" & 8" woofers available? Tweekerman,Thanks so much for the complement. I've been writing here for the last two years not to stroke my ego, or push what I own on others, but to help others with their quest to find great sound, without all the hype or non-sense. Lately I've... | |
| What's the best 7" & 8" woofers available? Tweekerman,Your project speaker sounds like it could be pretty darn good. Is it doable? ; I don't see why not. I would concentrate on getting the crossover right though, as this can make or break a speakers' sound (regardless of the drivers used).... | |
| What's the best 7" & 8" woofers available? Tweekerman, No argument with your advice regarding the SEAS, but this guy is building a three-way, i.e. my secondary recomendation for the Scanspeak Revelator, since it is having to play less upper midbass in a three way application than in a two-... |
