| did my wife harm my speakers? Hey McGrogan! Now I now how you put together that fine system!!!Joe | |
| How to design music room? Thanks to all for advice offered. I did buy Harley's book and now have my room dimension figured to minimize resonant modes. However, that book gives no info re; building materials. Alton Everst has several books that deal with those issues but se... | |
| the listening room: "golden ratio"? Red,Yes, I found the same info on resonant modes/room dimensions in Robert Harley's "High End Audio" suggested here by others. Hence, this fits into my budget nicely. The exact dimensions for an 8' ceiling is: L 15.2' X W 11.2' X H 8'.That at leas... | |
| Filling speaker cavities with cat litter My cat loves the idea, that way he can sharpen his claws on the grill after he's had a good constitutional! He enjoys this most while listening to Ted (guns & glory but no brains) Nugent's; "cat scratch fever". I have this set up myself in my ... | |
| How to design music room? Thanks for the site info Nar com, and the others. I am looking for an architect to draw up the plans, I have the basic design in mind. I want a south facing window which in itself will affect resonance, but I don't suppose there's any getting arou... | |
| How to design music room? Hueske-primary goal is the best accoustics, secondary is noise isolation, and overall goal is listening nirvanajoeb | |
| B&W 804's Vs. Vienna Acoustic Beethoven Here we go again, another BW "bashing". What a crock!For the price, the N804 is a very fine speaker. Using a Denon HT receiver to power it is like putting an old VW bug engine in a new Corvette. you're only going to get out of it what you put in i... | |
| Thiel cs 2.3 or B&W N803,804? I am not familiar with Thiel, but I do own a set of BW N804's. I know they need the right electronics. I have a Classe 300 Watt amp that does it justice. However, I have heard them sound better with better electronics. But if I had my choice (and ... | |
| B&W 603, 602, etc. There are usually a pair of 602's on audiogon for a reasonable price. Although I haven't seen them for awhile, if you wait, a pair of 603's or 604's will show up sooner or later. No need to worry about getting them here, just check the sellers ref... | |
| 40hz ratings/speaker response Twl, as the father of a deaf child I can't help wonder why the DOD would need to conspire to prevent deaf people from hearing? National Security? At any rate, a lot of deafness is neurological damage, not bone structure so your theory just doesn't... | |
| Differences between BW N804 and BW N805? No Contest! With the right electronics, there is a huge difference. The n805 is just a monitor, better suited to HT imo. But the 804 is a good stand alone speaker, better depth, range, sound stage. For the price of the 805, you're better off putti... | |
| 40hz ratings/speaker response Red, Keep in mind I am "technically challenged", but if your formula and theory is correct, what I really need to do is simply rearrange my listening room, a hassle, but doeable. As the one who started this thread, I have to ask Red, are you kiddi... | |
| What causes "cupped hands"? Well, being from the northern clime, I know that the family jewels often tend to get frosty below the freezing mark, Hence the "cupped hands" to warm the jewels syndrome. I've heard that a good cable burner, or torch welder may help this problem t... | |
| Safely combining 2ch. and HT. Lthkeeper & Rwwear you sound like you or on the right track using the "digital out" on the cdp. If I go out dig.out to the HK "dig. in", the HK surround processor will do it's thing. However, If I also have the Regular Balanced outs going to t... | |
| Manufacturer Warranty Unsound,Well, I was pleased just to have the unit back in working order, And I agree that 3 months of hassle is unacceptable. However, after listening to feedback, this appears to be "standard industry protocol", weather I like it or not seems not... |
