| 40hz ratings/speaker response A speaker rated down to 40hz will play below the frequency, just rolled off. The amount of rolloff depends on the type of low freq. system. Bass reflex rolls off at twice rate of acoustic suspension below the low frequency resononce. But with room... | |
| Best amp/pre-amp for Vienna Acoustics Haydn ? The McCormacks are nice. Someone over on DIYaudio.com was commenting on what nice amps they are and how steve mccormack doesn't get much credit compared to alot of the other designers. Bryston are pretty good too and have been around along time wi... | |
| HELP Speakers sound brighter and 3D stage is lost Your post doesn't make sense: you have your speakers 6 inches from sidewall and 8 feet in between, but the shortest dimension of the room is 12 foot? My math says 3 feet is unaccounted for. 8' feet apart and 4' from sidewalls is about perfect, as ... | |
| Need help on speaker choice Have you ever thought of a kit using the Raven ribbon tweeters: e-speakers.com, zalytron.com and gr-research.com have some to start. Its a nice modern ribbon tweet and very efficient. | |
| Mods for DYNA ST-70, What do you think?? I think soundvalves.com points out that even the stock version has some easily correctable mistakes that to do just a parts upgrade would be a bit of a shame. So at the very least/minimum go their route, along with the better parts. Now if you wan... | |
| Can an FM Tuner be "hot-rodded" long distance??? Alot of the DXers use Carver tuners, I believe. | |

| Best binding posts for speakers and amplifiers. Bocchino audio has the Monopoles. | |
| Are you a D.I.Y? I kinda wish I was DIY before I started buying expensive stuff. $500 in parts will build you a $2500 amp. $1,000 spent on speaker drivers and xover parts, and any commerical design would be going for at leat 4x times that. The only real downside i... | |
| Coolest looking cd player in history The Shanling just looks kinda cheap. Like Jolida's stuff, they probably put all the money in that metal: lets see the price breakdown and the circuit itself. The Jadis is cool, it would be ultimately cool if the lid did the Krell thing: where it w... | |
| Best AM antenna? Also Best AM Tuner Fanfare's got the AM AMAX technology going. It only comes optional ($400) in one of their FM units. | |
| What's the best sounding SS or Tube linestage pre? I've got a top-of-the-line hybrid tube/ss Van Alstine preamp for sale at $525. Can't get much better than that short of spending several thousands, even at its full msrp. | |
| Avalon Acoustics' Eidolon Diamond A little of topic, but personally I can't see any reason for a $2,800 synthetic diamond tweeter. I'm not opposed to it on grounds of price alone or anything like that. And I'm sure its a nice unit like there C-12 and C-22 units. But for $2,800 it ... | |
| What can the front baffle for spkrs be made from? Read Martin Collom's "high performance loudspeakers", Vance Dickason's Cookbook of Loudspeaker design, and the two books by David B. Weems, those will all help. You can build it out of concrete, MDF, soapstone, marble, corian, special honeycomb st... | |
| Best system under 5K - that is a challenge For $500 all you could do is hunt for a super price on a CD player, integrated amp, and then, to really pick up some gains for the money, build some 2 way kit speakers.On the original thread, it didn't even specify how many sources, but my amp and... |
