| Protip: Using a sub? Plug your mains @erik_squires You recently accused me of vague unprovable positions and a complete lack of evidence. Don't you think its hypocritical to claim without evidence that there is a reduction in distortion and excursion by plugging the port? Let us al... | |
| Who says studio monitors are "cold and analytical"? There are obviously many kinds of speakers out there that could be called studio monitors. There are nearfield midfield and main monitors. The far field monitors do use massive horns and 18 inch drivers. Look at any picture of a studio and you wil... | |
| Protip: Using a sub? Plug your mains You need to be able to control the rolloff of the main speakers. You cant do that by just plugging the port. Some woofers dont work well in sealed boxes. What you really want is a high pass filter. That will enable you to tune the rolloff point an... | |
| Who says studio monitors are "cold and analytical"? Its important to remember that most musicians and mix engineers are NOT audiophiles. They neither belong in our world or understand it. Most singers, musicians and artists do not own audiophile equipment they know nothing about what we do. This is... | |
| Who says studio monitors are "cold and analytical"? Flat as pancake studio monitors. Another flat as pancake studio monitors pancake monitors for studio | |
| I have NOVA V's and I am not happy We see complaints like this all the time. Your speakers were not custom tuned to your ears. They will need to be retuned or you will need to buy another speaker but the result will be the luck of the draw. | |
| Who says studio monitors are "cold and analytical"? If you look at a comparable model in ATC’s home or pro market, the only difference is the cabinet. They don’t “tune” their speakers for either market any differently and have achieved success on both sides. Which only proves how ignorant and cl... | |
| Who says studio monitors are "cold and analytical"? @avanti1960 conversely a ruler flat and level response is found by most to be analytical. Its just WRONG. Dont be afraid to say it. There is no such thing as analytical. A speaker needs to reproduce the input signal. Either its right or wrong... | |
| Who says studio monitors are "cold and analytical"? According to discussions Ive read, Pro audio users do not want their speakers to sound good. If they sound good they are regarded as colored. They want their speakers to be accurate. As a result of this market need, the studio monitor industry was... | |
| Who says studio monitors are "cold and analytical"? @soix But, if as you maintain studio monitors are designed to be flat and don’t sound good then B&W speakers must be bad studio monitors. Same with ATC, PMC, etc. Can’t have your argument both ways. Im not having it both ways. Youre jus... | |
| Who says studio monitors are "cold and analytical"? Every speaker in existence has been tuned by the designer. Just like a piano needs to be tuned a speaker needs to be tuned also. What this involves is trying out different crossover topologies. You might do a fourth order or a 2nd order. You might... | |
| Who says studio monitors are "cold and analytical"? There is no such thing as a studio monitor. All speakers are just wooden boxes. The question is how the damn thing has been tuned. Studio monitors are tuned FLAT. Audiophile speakers have a downward tilt. End of story. As a result of this, so call... | |
| Custom Tuning Conspiracy - So, who exactly is going to do all the testing, designing and creating these imaginary speakers for no money? Its not for no money. But its also not a money making scheme. We can charge as much or as little as we see fit. However we would not... | |
| Custom Tuning Conspiracy Also, very few of the most dedicated audiophiles keep the same system for long periods of time, they are always looking to upgrade with the goal of improving things and also to satisfy their unquenchable drive to try new things. and part of the... | |
| Custom Tuning Conspiracy I don’t know of any manufacturing model that is based on no profit. The model you are proposing would not be profitable and eventually fail, probably rather quickly. Its not a model designed to make money. That is exactly the problem with speak... |
