I've heard great speakers across almost all driver implementations except single drivers so that surely should be what to avoid @cdc

How about yg acoustics dual coherent the crossover coherent in both time and frequency domains? yg-acoustics DualCoherent   You got me thinking about single driver vs. time aligned multi driver. What do you think about Fujitsu Ten Eclipse TD7...

The longer I listen the more I move away from "ruthlessly revealing" ( fatiguing) sound. When a speaker makes the focus of a song the recording defects and quality of musicianship IME it looses it’s musicality. When I start liking the song, not f...

My thought is if the speaker is designed to play a 116dB will it cause a shortcoming somewhere else? Why pay for performance that has no use? No. Not needing to play that loud sustained means there is ample headroom for when you play music that...

So you have heard them and this is a design flaw? less of a design flaw and a compromise made by the designers... all speakers have some form of compromise and the one to get is one with the least number of compromises and the Genelec fits the ...

Sounds like you have a background in studio monitors. What do you think about nearfield vs. farfield listening for rock and techno. Would it sound more "right" because it is mastered nearfield? Most people here listen to jazz, quartet, classical,...

Erin will get one and he has a review of the Sointuva AWG. So I'd say wait on that  
Anyone have experience with the new ATC active bookshelf speakers?
@m669326  From all the ATC I’ve heard. I think they’d be midrangey. I will get to hear them at High End Munich later this year. But outside of dynamics and sounding generally balanced with a quirk in the upper mids and lower treble, ATC pretty dec...

@cdc  Well the issue with the micromain isn’t the frequency response which is ideally should be a variation of neutral which it is on axis. And also because you’d be nearfield, flat on axis is what you want but you also want a pretty controlled an...

Well hope you get to hear them  
10dB resonant peak at 40Hz
DSP is the only way. And I saw you say DSP affected you negatively when you used it. I'd say which DSP and also assume it wasn't a painstakingly meticulous use of said DSP. Cos DSP when done right doesn't degrade sound

you need a subwoofer... SBIR effects in your room is giving you nulls (to be expected, can't cheat physics) and the only way to get that fixed is by good subwoofer integration @vail3000   
REL vs Arendal subwoofer
yes the Arendal will be better for integration
