| Time coherence - how important and what speakers? Bigtee,I agree that there are trade offs in every design, but for me the trade off's in low order crossover designs are too great to allow me to enjoy listening through them. I should mention one exception, however- the Quad ESL 63 with Crosby mod... | |
| Time coherence - how important and what speakers? I feel the need to try to set the record straight regarding our designs. The Infinite Slope design we employ is absent of any ringing.None. Nada. Don't believe me? Go look at the review of the RM33si in Stereophile, see the waterfall plot of the ... | |

| Time coherence - how important and what speakers? In response:Karl,It's possible for higher order crossover systems to sound "natural". This is one of the litmus tests for me when I'm working on a design. When you've created a system you must be hypercritical of it, and uncover any potential flaw... | |
| Time coherence - how important and what speakers? In response:Unsound: Please allow me to expand on your comments one by one:1. I've heard this said before regarding imaging and soundstaging. But I must tell you that as I've examined different topologies, I've found that other things such as the ... | |

Designing for phase coherence may be intellectually gratifying, but here are my questions for the Phase Coherence Uber Alles crowd.1. What does time coherence actually sound like? How could you tell a time coh... | |
| What drivers doTalon Khorus use Since you mentioned George Cardas, it's true that George uses Merlins and our RM7si's in his recording setup.However, he also owns a pair of Magneplanar MG20's for his main system(modified with an Infinite Slope x-over) and a pair of Hales revelat... | |
| Best speakers at show? Merlin by far Estwest ; We only had the one pair at the show - RM33si's, I don't know what you mean about "bigger ones". I made sure the absolute phase was correct for the demonstration pieces used (hey, you *never* know whenClark Johnsen's gonna pop in!) As fo... |
