| Everything a crossover has to do ... Speakers need to be tuned by ear by the owner not by the designer. Simple as that. There are no hard and fast rules about how to do a crossover. Ive heard most speakers on the market. Most of them sound horrific even though they have been tuned by... | |
| First order/Time Phase-Coherent speakers discussions I would assume Infinite Slope filter would have higher phase shift using very steep roll-off slope filters. vs. a time-phase coherent design that uses first order filter which has the least amount of phase shiftWhy would you assume that? | |
| First order/Time Phase-Coherent speakers discussions time cohesion is fake. No such thing | |
| First order/Time Phase-Coherent speakers discussions I always thought the goal was having 20to20 arriving at your ears, at the same time and in phaseThey do. Theres no evidence they dont. | |
| First order/Time Phase-Coherent speakers discussions Phase alignment is certainly measurable. its all a myth. Most important thing is frequency response. | |
| Bright High End Speakers = Bad Room? @teo_audioThis means you should never think that a studio monitor speaker is even remotely suitable for neutral and balanced home use. They are emphatically not.B&w, pmc, atc, kii audio, etc many are used for both. | |
| First order/Time Phase-Coherent speakers discussions lets get back to the discussion. What is time cohesion? | |
| First order/Time Phase-Coherent speakers discussions i think we should define what time coherence is more precisely before going any further. | |
| First order/Time Phase-Coherent speakers discussions With digital actives, you just dial it up and listen for yourself...a whole lot easier and faster that way.true. You can literally be an armchair speaker designer with digital. I've always said that anybody can do it. | |
| Bright High End Speakers = Bad Room? A speaker that is ruler-flat on-axis, anechoic chamber, will have a typical room response that slopes off at high frequencieswhy would it slope off in a room that is less absorbent than an anechoic chamber? | |
| Bright High End Speakers = Bad Room? Toole conducted extensive double-blind listening tests and found that most listeners prefer a gently downward-sloping response trend,what was the explanation? | |
| Bright High End Speakers = Bad Room? But there was one group who consistently preferred a flat response: Recording engineers. To them, speakers are a tool, and in general the more revealing the better. Do you have a link to the study that mentions this? Thanks | |
| Bright High End Speakers = Bad Room? especially since it is the room response they respond to, not the anechoic measured on-axis.The room response is obviously related to the anechoic response. | |
| Bright High End Speakers = Bad Room? Most speakers aim for a ruler flat reponse which is too bright for most folk. This is why speakers must be custom tuned to the customers ears. You wouldn't walk into a store and buy a pair of shoes in any old size would you? If you did it would pr... | |
| First order/Time Phase-Coherent speakers discussions Time cohesion is a myth. If the tweeter was hundreds of metres behind the woofer then youd hear a delay. The actual distance involved is within about 1cm so obviously theres no delay that can be heard. |
