| How far can room treatments solve boomy bass? When I started work in my small work I needed to take action to address problems in the low octaves and these were created even by small monitor speakers interaction with the room. From the outset it needs to be said that one should expect unevenn... | |
| Absorb or Diffuse in between speakers? 05-25-12: BryoncunninghamI agree with the other posters that it depends on your room. I also agree that you should experiment.Personally, I've tried both absorption and diffusion between my speakers. I prefer diffusion by a considerable margin. I ... | |
| 240 VAC 60Hz amp running at 230 VAC 50Hz - safe? Thanks for the reply Ngjockey.The response from the manufacturer on this question was"..the truth is that all of our transformers are manufactured for 50Hz operation. It just so happens that they work just fine at 60Hz in the U.S. also"Does this r... | |
| Room treatments - GIK Vs Acoustimac Hi Milpai,There is some pretty strong rational for having the listening chair some distance away from the rear wall. I've found measurements (using REW or XTZ) the best way to locate the listening seat position. This thread may interest you. | |

I had the opportunity to slot a KWI-200 into my downstairs system this morning.Two discoveries worth mentioning.First, I really appreciated the KWI-200's reading of the music. Warm, organic and natural to succinctly sum things up. Versus my refere... | |

| Two and a half hour audition of the Raidho C1.1 04-18-12: Vapor1Yes the comparison isn't perfectly valid in every way. [ ] :-) 04-18-12: Vapor1I will say that I'd wager in a same room/same electronics comparision, that you'd likely prefer the Raidho's. That's interesting Vapor1. Other than the... | |
| Two and a half hour audition of the Raidho C1.1 Happy weekend to you to Dracule.I would like to think that one doesnt have to be anal to understand that having multiple uncontrolled variables makes it impossible to draw any valid cause/effect relationships and / or conclusions from the audit... | |

You were unfamiliar with the system, you were unfamilia... | |
| Two and a half hour audition of the Raidho C1.1 >There is no advantage I hear from the C1.1 system compared to mine. Actually I prefer my system.<Unless you heard the C1.1 with YOUR amp and in YOUR room, you can't unequivocally say that. It may be your system that makes your speakers sou... | |

| Best CD player under $5K? I am a little wary on upgrade programs for CD Players. Some leave the player sounding 'different' rather than 'better'. | |
