| At This Time Can We Recreate Full Range Live Music In The Home? Wow phusis, you can write! Bravo! My Mom was an English teacher, my daughter a screen writer and I still had to read your post twice. Brad | |
| At This Time Can We Recreate Full Range Live Music In The Home? JBL was always famous though the years as being very good at dynamic range. From an English High Fidelity perspective, JBL was not as good at low distortion. Many such as KEF attempted to get the distortion down first, work on dynamics later. ... | |
| Why don't more recordings have soundstage outside of speakers All the top engineers are accustomed to working with phase in a recording. I think the most interesting story I’ve run across was from Alan Parsons who explained how he got imaging on Dark Side of he Moon on a tiny little console and rudimentary g... | |
| Active Speaker Choice HI High-amp. I am not a dealer, I am the importer to the US of all ATC. Have been for 20 years on pro, about 6 years on consumer. Our consumer website is lonemountainaudio.comOur pro website is transaudiogroup.comBrad | |
| Active Speaker Choice It must be said for actives, the main objective will always be linear phase and reduced distortion-not just the "all-in-one" package solution. Actives are not a speaker "rack system" that creates the illusion of a better solution by reducing choi... | |
| Does it worth a upgrade to Dolby Atmos? ATMOS is the first 3 dimensional playback format that has music creators excited. There is a ton of work going to remix records into the ATMOS format. For film, ATMOS makes perfect sense to create motion, create the environment and space. For ... | |
| Most rooms don’t need acoustical treatment. Not sure I agree with you there- that it doesn't matter. While its true those of us without direct studio or live music experience have an extreme challenge knowing for certain what is sonically "correct", I think the goal of many audiophiles is... | |
| Most rooms don’t need acoustical treatment. I love reading this thread. Its really clear window into the real world of home audio: part misinformation, some hearsay, some reality. For example, the idea that you can "fix" anything in your playback system about a recording is impossible. ... | |
| Can Any Bookshelf Speaker Be Used Nearfield? Actually the term "nearfield" is all about room sound vs direct sound balance. If you have a set of speakers in a room and sit a few feet back from them, you get a mix of room (reflected sound) and speaker (direct sound). The further away in the s... | |
| ATC Scm 19 V1 Upgrade or what? The V2 SCM19 sound significantly better than the V1. There was a tweeter change to the 19V1 plus some crossover changes that make the speaker sound like it is "more" than just a tweeter part change.The 40 is ATC’s most popular consumer speaker bec... | |
| Blocking Ports on Ported Speakers Usually the sweet spot is how the speakers is without a port blocked. Ports are designed specifically by length and diameter to extend the bass response by a "tuned" tube that resonates at a specific group of frequencies. You are a speaker enginee... | |
| ATC50 -- moving : Do you have your foam inserts? These two suggestions are good ones with some caveats. Styro can crack if you put something heavy on it, like a 50 put on its corner. Shipped on a pallet, it could work. Styro also creates dust as its rubbed in transit and that dust covers everyth... | |
| ATC50 -- moving : Do you have your foam inserts? $1000 for foam inserts? I don't think I said that. Thats the number to ship a pair of 50s in their cartons or a pair of empty cartons with packaging inside from Vegas to a place like New York. Its not even enough to cover the cost of getting a p... | |
| A strange business model for audio Mytek is a very small company. Michal ran it out of an apartment in NY for many years, handled everything himself. He's quite bright, which is why Mytek is ahead of many others in product development. One of the reasons Mytek is affordable is d... | |
