| Your short speaker cable experiences With each amp behind each speaker, 16" speaker cables (no connector on speaker side), was zero difference to a pair of 20' cable (with connectors on speaker side). | |
| Tekton Design - New IRL Technology - Lifelike, Real, Immersive I heard something similar at Disney World in one of those special ’Bug’s Life’ presentations. When the stink bug was on the screen, there was fog and a fowl smell in the audience in sync with what the bug was doing. I wonder if the presentation at... | |
| Tekton Design - New IRL Technology - Lifelike, Real, Immersive Can someone remind me of the last time there was a significant breakthrough in audio? If anyone could mention just one occurrence I'd appreciate it. | |
| WILSON ORIGINAL SOPHIA'S You could unscrew the drivers and pull them out somewhat without the need to de-solder. You’d have to have something to support them while being elevated from the enclosure. Personally, I really don’t think it’s necessary. As a precaution, you cou... | |
| WILSON ORIGINAL SOPHIA'S I've used Goo Gone and Denatured Alcohol (ethanol), with a plastic scraper (do not use metal). The process is very easy. To avoid getting any of the cleaning solvent on the driver(s), elevate one side with something like a towel, and only clean th... | |
| Try a sub a third in the back @lewinskih01 Someone was asking how to connect a third sub. I was giving an example of one of the ways to do it using a splitter in a dual mono configuration. | |
| Try a sub a third in the back I use a pair of Whirlwind Split 6 (XLR) out of my DAC. One Split 6 connected to Left Channel, other to Right Channel. I don’t run my Subs in Stereo, instead, I run them in Dual Mono. Out of Split 6 (left channel), one cable to Amp, one cable to Su... | |
| Try a sub a third in the back And from the link above: Conclusion: Moving from one subwoofer to two makes a very noticeable difference in the performance of the system. Going from two to four was always an improvement, sometimes for certain seating positions more than others... | |
| Try a sub a third in the back LOL at the guy who has his subs in the worst position possible... Haven’t seen any naysayers reply on here yet. Sure, 3 or 4 subs work best, but how much better are they than 2 subs? Measurements, and proper sub positioning are required to kno... | |
| Try a sub a third in the back Google Tom Welti white paper. Conclusion from his testing: Four subwoofers are enough to get the best results of any configuration the best results of any configuration tried. Two subwoofers is very nearly tried. Two subwoofers is very nearly as... | |
| Try a sub a third in the back @hilde45 Please look at the graphs for 2 subs, and 3 subs in the link you provided for Distributed Bass Array. Why on earth would anyone spend in excess of $500 - $4000 by adding a third or fourth sub based on those measurements. I know in your... | |
| Subwoofer for music, how low? Based on a rectangular room, with multiple seating this is what Todd Welti’s research showed (I assume his research was more geared towards home theatre application). Google Todd Welti if you’re not familiar with him. "It can be seen that ... | |
| Bye Bye Puppy! I'm guessing maybe 30 seconds after hearing the Sasha's, you'll ask yourself why you didn't make the change sooner. Congrats! | |
| Converting RCA to XLR Perfect, seems exactly what you want (with 2 less cables no less).I assume you'll still test the balance or unbalanced switch in this setup.I would also make sure volume levels are matched with all 5 speakers when using 5.1CH. The XLR output is ra... | |
| Converting RCA to XLR Not entirely sure what the following really means.From the BDP95 manual:" NOTE The STEREO AUDIO OUT terminals automatically down-mix the multi-channel audio source into the stereo signals. However, STEREO AUDIO OUT will NOT be affected by the “D... |
