| Room Layout and Acoustic Improvements on a Limited Budget A few years back we built an elevator shaft (3 floors) in an office building renovation. I noticed the offices where about that size (10’ x 14’ but with 11’ ceilings) and the GC was installing one 2’ x 4’ x4” thick panel in each office ceiling (c... | |
| But is it HiFi? (Crown) They can be great for certain speaker topologies! As with all things audio, there are no absolutes. I use them mostly for my subs, but they work great for a pair of floor to ceiling line arrays I use (albeit using a tube preamp there). | |
| Would this work s a cheap way to experiment with room treatment? I believe you saw xps or “extruded polystyrene” At the depot they are 4’x8’pink or blue boards Not to be confused with eps or “expanded polystyrene” which is usually the white boards that seem to beak off in white beads floating through the air... | |
| diffuser or absorption panels, which would you choose? Like most things audio , diffusion is not a simple or cut and dry subject. That’s why folks can go on and on about it lol You can buy a book about diffusion if you prefer. Lots of folks build quadratic diffusers, as they can be a bit more simple ... | |
| Lisa Marie Presley has passed away. And struggling with obesity, so compounding issues for sure… but the unfortunate bottom line- “RIP Lisa Marie Presley” | |
| Lisa Marie Presley has passed away. RIP Lisa Marie. E’s father also died of a heart attack (and/or broken heart) after Elvis passed. Didn’t make it more than two years (1979) Also Elvis mother passed at 54 (same age as Lisa Marie) not at 46…also heart related. Clearly heart disea... | |
| SQ of digital volume controls compared to preamplifiers “The sound was pretty good, but the magic was gone. Soundstage is less 3D and the voices are not as believable.” That and more is my experience every time I try to use any of my systems without a preamp. You might want to try a preamp with adjus... | |
| Jeff Beck - passes away Terrible …RIP | |
| Those singers you enjoy,....that don't really have a great voice? @asctim good point | |
| RIP Jeff Beck Damn…RIP… | |
| Those singers you enjoy,....that don't really have a great voice? @sns agreed if your referring to Janis Joplin can’t believe she hadn’t been mentioned yet.…or I missed it. But I digress…the question is a bad voice whom you DO like…😂 | |
| Subwoofer boom is too much for me... Agreed I should have made it clear that only after extensive room treatment (bass traps) I suppose I have tunnel vision that way… I would not even consider positioning of sub or subs until after bass traps and/or treatment… I did do it once th... | |
| Subwoofer boom is too much for me... Try it. I’ve done it with different results but IME a properly built sub (ported) should not have a stark difference than a properly built sealed one. Might try the gain first, and the crossover settings and slopes may have more immediate effect... | |
| How do you measure your listening space? I use a mic and REW | |
