| Subwoofers and Phase Question For You Sub Experts Um, the speed of sound in air at ground level is generally given to be approximately 1,200 feet per second. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_sound1 millisecond = 1/1000 of a second, so 1.2 feet per millisecond or 14.5". So 1/10 of a millisec... | |
| Subwoofers and Phase Question For You Sub Experts I go back to one thing. I recommend the OP turn to GIK acoustics first. Ask them for advice on room and then see where he's at. Best,E | |
| Why is the Audio Research SP8 so highly regarded? I find modern AR gear to be much better sounding. I found the original cold, sterile and perhaps lean. The modern AR gear looses the lean and cold, but is it better than just neutral? Listen to Ayre and Luxman for alternative presentations which a... | |
| Streamers/DACs for Hi Res Streaming MQA does not require a special protocol. That's one of it's selling points. MQA can hide in any non-lossy file / transmission format (FLAC, ALAC, etc.). However, whether you can convince Tidal to stream you master quality or not is another story.... | |
| Combination of 1st order and 2nd order crossover in 3 way box Hey, diyaudio.com is probably a better place for this question. The poles are picked based on the electroacousutic blending. You can't just willy-nilly pick new ones without being able to simulate the whole speaker. Also, asymmetric filters are pr... | |
| Modem performance and modem selection. These ground loop coax isolators are pretty smiple. Either a transformer or capacitor. So long as the bandwidth is correct, they are bidirectional. | |
| Modem performance and modem selection. you are suggesting the OP get something that he might not even need. True, but so many ground loop issues end up being related to the incoming coax. I’m unusually concerned because I’ve seen a number of charts suggesting that ground loops can occ... | |
| Subwoofers and Phase Question For You Sub Experts Kenjit,To paraphrase your post in another thread:I refuse to engage with you unless you can prove to me it would be worth my time. | |
| Subwoofer Question Hey OP:As you may have seen, to me the issue of integration of a sub is critical. The sub must integrate to the speakers at the top of it's range, and the room everywhere else. So, I strongly suggest before you start to talk to GIK Acoustics regar... | |
| Streamers/DACs for Hi Res Streaming 1. What are people’s thoughts on whether using an MQA compatible DAC significantly compromises its playback of non-MQA files? Is this an important issue weighing against Tidal Masters? Depends. On the Mytek Brooklyn for some reason I was locked i... | |
| connecting B&W 683s1 to amp? help please? you can bi wire too. Just more expensive. | |
| Subwoofers and Phase Question For You Sub Experts Hey Kenjit: which if i recall correctly has been heavily ridiculed by the experts on diyaudio. Post your link. Like any other project, plenty of discussions. By the way Kenjit, unlike you, I’ve posted my entire design. You keep asking me questions... | |
| Subwoofers and Phase Question For You Sub Experts Kenjit,It's also your ability to hold simultaneously opposite positions on a subject matter which we all remember. | |
| Subwoofers and Phase Question For You Sub Experts PS - I don't have a problem with swarms. Just their cost, placement, wiring, etc. The physics are fine, but from a convenience point of view, 1 sub with bass traps and EQ rules. | |
| Subwoofers and Phase Question For You Sub Experts No one has to rely on my expertise alone. I've posted a number of references, and agree with Duke. The physics don't change. I just happen to have experience with it, and shared the way. Best,Erik |
