| Primer on horns Class A isn't necessarily any better than Class B, and "Class" A/B isn't really a class but an amp the flip-flops between the two. "Class" A/B will always have more distortion than a well optimized Class B, all other thing being more or less equal... | |
| 19th Nervous Breakdown... If it was me I'd buy the better turntable. Food isn't that big of a deal. And with audio to me, alot of the better/best stuff is only the standard to just keep me listening, not even necessarily thrill me. When I had to buy a tuner, just because I... | |
| Pros and Cons of Ribbons Dunlavyaudio.com has an article called "cones, domes and planars" underneath the tech talk icon. Its a little more technical than the sequarra one (I just read the sequarra one. I didn't know about it , thanks for the link), but more general. And ... | |
| Completely passive audio system... Unless you've got one of those ones from the Thomas Edison days where the horn/speaker was attached directly to the needle/cartridge. | |
| Completely passive audio system... How can you have a passive amplifier? I thought all amplifiers plugged into the wall. | |
| Tube amp on the floor or on the rack? You might want get some type of cage for that thing, if it doesn't have one. Kiddies and pets don't do well breaking tubes and burning themselves. (I don't know your situation). The only problem with "up high" is-it can fall that much farther, not... | |
| Bi amping Horz / Vert / Parallel / Series ???? Ya, that's vertical, like daniel also said. They mess me up too, have to stop and think. | |
| Anyone heard of this ? Possible "scam" ? Some cd players won't play if there's too much moisture/condensation on the lens, a product of being brought from one temperature extreme to another (cold to hot). And as much as the tv cost, it certainly wouldn't hurt to wait a day. | |
| Bi amping Horz / Vert / Parallel / Series ???? I would think using one amp per speaker with one channel for highs and the other for lows would be the way to go. As opposed to one amp driving both lows and the other both the highs. The reasons beings, firstly aside from having monoblocks as a b... | |
| what's so special about center speaker ? Nowhere did it say the speaker was wired out of phase, wiring was not even mentioned. It stated "the drivers in opposite acoustic polarity to the left/right front speakers." This would also refer to horizontal tm designs, along with the horizontal... | |
| what's so special about center speaker ? To quote Vance Dickason on page 189 of The Loudspeaker design cookbook, 6th ed., "The center front channel speaker is commonly positioned horizontally , with the drivers in opposite acoustic polarity to the left/right front speakers. This is done ... | |
| How to fix B&W 800's? You may also be able to find a suitable replacement with a current driver. It would mean a little bit if backengineering and for the sake of consistency, you'd want to change both drivers. It can be done; you'll just have to do some serious readin... | |
| Monoblocks or Bi-Amp Monoblocks usually aren't necessary and the needs, performance wise, be met with a stereo amp. Only when you have one speaker do you need a monobloc. While the monobloc offers an infinite channel separation, good solid-state stereo amps can have 9... | |
| Martin Logan Scenarios Positioning? I do believe there is some rule that with "line array" electrostats that minimum distance one must sit away is some mulitple of the panel heigth. It was over on dunlavy's site maybe. I'm not for certain though.I use "line array" since I done know ... | |
| what's so special about center speaker ? Even the MTM design period isn't all that great. Biro Technology has a good article and it appears the designer has found that even a vertical MTM suffers 9-12db dips in frequency response, with what I believe is more ambient energy, assuming your... |
