| Occasional Sound Imbalance Issue I am following this with interest. Pretty bizarre. after leaving my system unpowered for 12 hours the problem is gone again. Really strange--I would think that all this would do would be to let the caps discharge. | |
| Anotherspeaker placement question (distance measurements) @ghdprentice , I went to your page & looked---awesome room and system! Way, way, way out of my league. I hope you still have the dog? I did a quick search on your speakers and I may be being materialistic, but I believe that to a large ex... | |
| tweaking audio systems with modifications. I would rather go to one live concert than listen to any type of system. Each to his or her own. | |
| tweaking audio systems with modifications. basically like maghister...guy seems like a genius since he says the sound quality is really good. A troll post? No way. | |
| Anotherspeaker placement question (distance measurements) Let’s address the elephant in the room — what are your room dimensions and on what wall are your speakers situated? Not sure why this critical info has to be a national secret. Sheesh. @soix Probably because everyone will tell me to giv... | |
| Anotherspeaker placement question (distance measurements) So, it is really true. Formula are simply a starting point. For me, I did my movements over a year. I plunked them in the prescribed place. And listened for a couple months (they are really awesome speakers). I realized they were capable of disap... | |
| Anotherspeaker placement question (distance measurements) "I ain’t ever satisfied," Steve Earle wrote a song by that title. @bigtwin , with the adjustable dimensions from the formula that I used to achieve 32.75 (or quite close) I did some listening. These dimensions put my speakers closer to the rear w... | |
| Quad panel outlet - can I do one circuit on this? @gs5556 Multiple receptacles on one dedicated circuit has the disadvantage of having multiple ground points, increasing the chance of ground loop hum. This is why it’s not a good idea to have one receptacle for each piece of audio gear. I am ... | |
| room size question. i have not turned the subs off. i guess my question is what would be the purpose of that ? yes the gear is in between the speakers. the stands are basically amp stands, so they are very low to the ground. 1) It is easy & fre... | |
| Anotherspeaker placement question (distance measurements) @bigtwin , mid range/woofer driver distance was a typo: 32.75 not 33.75. Last night, after I finished typing, I got back in The Room & did some repositioning (but no listening as of yet). One thing I did de... | |
| Anotherspeaker placement question (distance measurements) @bigtwin , (I will make a correction & report that my woofer is about 33.75 & the formula with the variations I was calculating with was giving me numbers very close to that) math was never a strong subject for me (I think that is why I... | |
| Anotherspeaker placement question (distance measurements) Thanks to all for responding. @bigtwin , I did read your response in the other "room size" thread. Like the OP of that one, I am working with a small space. When you posted this formula, I did not, at that time, work with any of your measureme... | |
| Ultimate stereo nightmare I hate to say it, but I am feelings the aches & pains of aging myself. You didn't list your equipment (separates or integrated, SS or tube, etc.) and this may be helpful to know. But, I also hate to say this, I think you are going to have to... | |
| patricia barber - diana krall - holly cole Thanks, @tomcarr , I just did a quick search & MD has the LP (which won't fit inside my CDP) and then I took a look on ebay & I saw one by SMH . . . I've found that SHM usually does a pretty good red-book. | |
| Anotherspeaker placement question (distance measurements) @newbee , center of the driver then. Thanks! |
