Omega Alnico XRS vs. Fritz Carrera vs. Harbeth 30.2 Speaker Shootout
It wasnt a blind test. It was invalid.

The problem is, you are comparing three different speakers which have three different frequency response graphs. So of course you are going to hear differences! Your listening test is invalid.  
Uneven soundstage help, please.
I just tried sitting backwards. Bingo!What can I do if it's my ears? It could be earwax but most likely its just permanent hearing loss due to age. Nothing can be done. Hearing loss is incurable as you know. You could use a balance control wit... 
Impedance change!?

Does pin hole in woofer affect sound quality?

KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way
I dont want to hear about how good a speaker is. I always like to know what things can be improved. If you are unable to figure that out thats ok but its disingenuous to pretend that they are perfect.  
Is this how a Subwoofer Crossover is supposed to work?
You can not send a fixed level signal from your dac to the subs while adjusting the speaker volume from your integrated amp and ever expect them to be at the proper level to blend. yes you can. you just adjust the sub every time you adjust the v... 
Is this how a Subwoofer Crossover is supposed to work?
Erik and I may disagree on some of the finer points of subwoofers, but we both think they can be well worth messing with. The disagreements are not on finer points. They are on the basic facts. It's no secret that Duke is a proponent of the so ca...
