| Open Baffle Experience Let’s see here — on the dipole side we have Nola, Vandersteen, Spatial, Magnepan, Martin Logan, SoundLabs, etc, and on the other side we have…kenjit. Hmmm. I for one would love to see kenjit debate the great minds behind all these very successf... | |
| Open Baffle Experience @holmz Ok @kenjit you seem hung up on the back wave being opposite polarity from the front wave. Then in the other time domain thread you mentioned how all speakers were not right. is it more important that: The back wave be in the proper p... | |
| Book Shelf Speaker advice - Formerly Book Shelf Dilemma There are plenty of speakers out there under a thousand dollars. You would have to go out and listen to each of them in your own home. I dont see how you could expect any of us to guess which speaker would suit your ears the best. Most audiophiles... | |
| What exactly is a speaker box sound? I haven't heard the effects of edge diffraction How would you know that unless you heard both a speaker with and without diffraction? | |
| Open Baffle Experience The OB may be out of polarity, but who cares in the upper freq ranges? You used the term “not in time”. A lot of folks do care. Magico, Kef, B&W, Wilson Audio, Focal, Genelec, Revel, Unless you only like listening to upper freq range then ... | |
| Open Baffle Experience Bache says @kenjit i agree for 100% , the open baffle desigh is made for folk who is looking for something unsual , The speaker bulders using old idea like new , Nothing magic . Depend of baffle size , sound wave from front cone meet wave fro... | |
| Downward firing speaker port and domestic issues yes you will get flak. Bass goes everywhere. You cant stop it. Not much you can do about it | |
| Open Baffle Experience @bpoletti The sound coming from the back of the open baffle speakers IS out of phase with the front, I dont need you to tell me that. You need to convince @holmz Hes the one disputing that not me. OK, use an EQ… then the FR is perfect. ... | |
| Open Baffle Experience Out of phase compared to what? It is more like they are focussed way back at infinity. The front and back waves are not in time with each other. Show me an open baffle that has both back and front in time. I am wondering what measurements wou... | |
| Sound is better when I stand up? you need the speakers custom tuned so that they sound brilliant when youre sitting down rather than standing up. Nothing to do with acoustics. Its the speaker crossovers need retuning | |
| Open Baffle Experience What kenjit overlooks is that drivers and crossovers can be selected and tailored for their specific application. That is not true. Open baffle designs are WRONG. They emit sound that is out of phase out the back end. If you can show me an ope... | |
| Are advances in technology making speakers better? There are no advances in speakers. But companies have to sell in order to make a profit so they have to keep on producing so called better speakers. The reality is most speakers are just wooden boxes with drivers in them. It has been that way for ... | |
| Open Baffle Experience If you think open baffles are great, then just remove your drivers from your speakers right now and throw your wooden boxes away folks. You will be shocked how horrible your speakers sound without them. You have been warned. I’m sure Magico and ot... | |
| THE IMPORTANCE OF TIME DOMAIN RESPONSE MUST READ @mofojo It’s a GD injustice is what it is!!!!!! I’m with ya Kenjit I am piiiiisssseeedddddd. These evil speaker companies must be stopped at all costs. All must come together as a nerdly whole! Stop 1. organize riot at Magico headquarters. Stop... | |
| THE IMPORTANCE OF TIME DOMAIN RESPONSE MUST READ I know of no speaker manufacturer who wouldn’t immediately jump at the chance to highlight their technology or approach as a distinguishing feature. The differences between speakers are small but exaggerated in order to gain an advantage. Secre... |
