| ADC for a Phantom? Here is one of many possible examples:https://mytekdigital.com/professional/products/stereo-96-adc/ | |
| ADC for a Phantom? What you want is an analog to digital converter (ADC). Lots available in pro audio shops, and ebay.Best,E | |
| Why no “Break in” period? I have no idea. I can say with personal experience I've run into and not run into break in periods with different components. Here are components I've heard break-in or extended warm up time: Mundorf MKP capacitors in speaker crossovers. IcePower ... | |
| SEAS vs SB Acoustics Information on SB Acoustics company’s country of origin and design here:https://audioxpress.com/article/factory-tour-sinar-baja-electric-and-sb-acousticsFrom which I quote:... this Indonesian company with its own dedicated design team in Denmark ... | |
| Preamp with external processor loop There are two kind of related and common features:Home Theater Bypass: Volume is bypassed and input sets the volume. Tape loop: Just like your processor loop. Outputs the full input, and receives the result. Volume control comes after. | |
| ADC for a Phantom? Um, this one? https://www.devialet.com/en-us/buy-phantom-reactor-600/It's analog too. | |
| The midi range, not the tweeter, is the most important driver in a speaker. Lots of SB Acoustics fans out there. The parts are designed in Denmark but made in Indonesia. Their Be dome caused quite a stir. Very smooth response for a metal dome. I will say, being smaller, SB Acoustics has been innovating in a number of fron... | |
| Eh hem!...Subwoofers... What do ya know? 2 subs are better in that you have more power, and more driver pushing air. So absolute terms, sure, you can increase output by 3 dB with lower distortion.But if you place the subs symmetrically, I would imagine that you end up reinforcing the sam... | |
| Eh hem!...Subwoofers... What do ya know? Are 2 subs better? Honestly a lot of this is an economic problem. Not just expense of the sub, but the room. Can you afford / do you have the space to locate each sub ideally? If so, then yes. If not, a good compromise is room acoustics, 1 sub pla... | |
| Dac with DSP suggestions miniDSP has both digital only DSP and DSP + DACsSo you could feed a DAC of your choice with room corrected digital signal. https://www.minidsp.com/ | |
| SEAS vs SB Acoustics Really suggest you take this up at DIYaudio. The peeps there are very knowledgeable and opinionated, plus you can post pictures and data/simulation files in the forums. | |
| Eh hem!...Subwoofers... What do ya know? What are your opinions on subwoofers? Hard to integrate well. Glorious when done right. What did you learn and how did you learn it? That’s a really good question. I started off with an M&K satellite/subwoofer system. Bought into the hype, u... | |
| dB effeciency vs speaker configuration Every 3 dB of improved efficiency cuts the power required by half. Most tube amps can drive 4 Ohms, but they are sensitive to variations in the impedance. Examining the impedance curve can help find things to watch out for. See the black line in t... | |
| 2 1/2 way speaker? Think of a crossover point as actually being 2 filters:1 - High Pass2 - Low passSo, in a traditional 3 way there are 2 crossover points but 4 filters. Got it? With a 2.5 way, there is a missing filter. The driver that would otherwise be the midran... | |
| The order of getting more/better bass BTW, I don’t hate GE speakers. Just the screeching incoherent mess that comes out of the mid and treble ranges. |
