Room Acoustics - Best way to cover a glass door?
Actually I was very specific, you know, size of glass, thickness, sound pressure level. Why would anyone think light curtains are any kind of broadband absorber? Google acoustics of glass, see what I mean. Google is your friend. 😀 I’m not saying l... 
Directionality of wire
If you’re trying to appear slow witted you’re doing an excellent job. 
Directionality of wire
The Audioholics article is apparently 13 years old yet contains the same misstatements of the facts and the usual appeals to "reason" and double blind testing as today’s uber skeptics. 13 years old but still fresh as a daisy! My favorite Audioholi...

Room Acoustics - Best way to cover a glass door?
Furthermore, in order to analyze the problem one should consider some of the variables, thickness of the glass, SPLs in the room, Dimensions of the glass, whether the glass is double paned and if so the tightness of the seal, and so forth. You eng... 
Room Acoustics - Best way to cover a glass door?
I kind of doubt light curtains will cut the mustard, has anyone actually seem the frequency spectrum of vibration that large glass windows and sliding doors produce? I suspect it’s wider and lower than most think. Light curtains probably fall into...

Directionality of wire
georgehifibut nobody has ever measured directional wire or fuses. I’d say that’s because it doesn’t exist. Pathological denial of the existence of a phenomenon beyond measurement? I guess if rational thought is pathological, I’m guilty.+1, it’s al...

kosst_amojan138 posts08-21-2017 10:16pmHuh.... Can’t measure it? That’s the problem with things that exist purely in your head, isn’t it? I mean, we live in a say when we can study the most microscopic, nuanced phenomenon in the universe with obsc... 
Lifters ForGetting Cables Off The Floor, Worth It Or Snake Oil
  audiopointNo... more like Hah, hah, hah, hah, truth be told! That's real good. Did you think of that all by yourself? 
Lifters ForGetting Cables Off The Floor, Worth It Or Snake Oil
bdp24Local heavy industry and/or construction is one source of seismic vibration, the earth itself another. The presence of the latter does not make the absence of the former any less welcome. Duh, or should I say HELLOOO? Apparently some people j...

Is damping material necessary for a speaker having such a small cabinet volume?
Generally speaking most speakers have way too much fiberglass or polyester, whatever stuffed into them, who knows why? It might be a case of monkey see, monkey do. Excellent results, in terms of bass performance, dynamics, and open transparent sou...
