| ATC SCM 40 v2 report HI I’m the importer for ATC to the US. Craig that tri wire panel isn’t my favorite either, but many users of ours in the past have requested bi wire and tri wire connections. It could be said that in 99% of the cases, amplifiers and cables lend a ... | |
| Raising standmount speakers Not sure what speaker stands you are using , but if they are sound anchors, call them and ask if you can order taller ones!Brad | |
| AppleTV Atmos levels seem off I think the more movies you try in ATMOS the more differences you will hear. Same thing for ATMOS music. Everyone is mixing these a little differently. Music especially, ATMOS mixes are all over the place. Mastering for ATMOS is in its infancy and... | |
| Why Aren't More Speaker Designers Building Augmented Widebanders? ATC has been hand building a very wide band device for a long time, the 3 inch mid dome. 380 to 3500Hz. I believe its the widest band mid device of its kind and gets around some of the typical midrange narrowing issues by using a dome instead of a... | |
| Need Recommendation All-in-One Bluetooth Speakers for Patio Another vote for Sonos MOVE, much better than I expected. Brad | |
| Speaker magnets Driver motors, of which the magnet are the key part and the coil being the other, are essential for controlling a driver's motion. The two are the "main dance" pair, with nearly infinite possibilities of what these two can do. These motors can l... | |
| Your thoughts on active loudspeakers HI GeorgehifiI have no doubt you experienced what you say as I can see you have written a enthusiastic response. AS one who's been in audio a lifetime, I have been completely convinced by a demo I discovered later was a flawed. I too have heard ... | |
| Your thoughts on active loudspeakers I think the number one reason commercially available actives lack consumer appeal is the lack of "amp upgradeability". Phusis is talking about the future when you can set your active system yourself, choose your crossover points and amplifiers. I ... | |
| Your thoughts on active loudspeakers Georgehifi"Active xover for the bass yes for me. But not for the mids/highs, they always sound "etched" and loose their "musical ease", become in your face."HI George Sure don't agree with this statement at all. That description would fit only a ... | |
| Your thoughts on active loudspeakers Fiesta 75It makes so much sense to take all that wire and inductors out of the signal flow to the speakers. With so much focus on speaker cables, I wonder how many people realize how much wire is part of a large air core inductor used for LF cros... | |
| Your thoughts on active loudspeakers The first significant players in active were Genelec and ATC. ATC is about 50/50 pro and consumer and Genelec historically was focused on pro. In consumer Linn and Meridian did some good work. In pro, additional players got involved as the busines... | |
| Subwoofer Footing - Connect or Isolate? I have. Huge difference in the system I heard it on (the one in the video posted earlier). Amazing what it sounds like isolated from the floor and room structure. This was build by an acoustics expert whos quite popular in the US and builds the... | |
| Subwoofer Footing - Connect or Isolate? Wow a lot of bad info here. Isolating things that move is important when you don't want to excite other elements of the listening room that add to and change the total sound you perceive. This is an issue of mass vs frequency.The total sound you... | |
| Do active speakers have high THD amplifiers? here here celtic66. I’m with you. Fiesta 75 -you get it! (Audiogoners, follow these guys! ) Who honestly thinks a speaker level crossover is an improvement over a line level one? How is seen as a good thing to add a bunch of big lossy parts that a... | |
| Low-sensitivity speakers — What's special about them? When designing a driver, its a choice you make: efficiency or bandwidth. This choice doesn't change if the driver will be used in a horn or infinite baffle, |
