| Need speaker for a small space and close to wall That's a difficult situation. Close proximity to a rear wall will affect response due to the boundary conditions. Good acoustic treatment may help quite a bit.The problem is that most monitors are set up assuming a position well away from the rear... | |
| The truth on low efficiency speakers like B&W? Well you have to consider the crest factor of high quality recording.Excellent orchestral recording have peak to average ratios that can exceed 20:1, which means that the average levels are 20 times lower power than the peaks. If you like to liste... | |

| Monitors or floor speakers for small room? Smaller rooms with reflective surfaces can benefit from a system using waveguide loaded tweeters. The waveguide evens out the power response, so that reflected sound will tend to carry the same relative balance across the critical midrange and hig... | |
| Nola Metro Grand Reference Opinions The items you want to see should be at RMAF in October. Just come to one place and audition all the stuff you want for 3 full days. | |
| Nola Metro Grand Reference Opinions Good points Vladimir. Nola's room at RMAF was good sized, and seemingly well treated. Like I said, when standing, the speakers sounded fantastic, no sense of overhang or room bloom, or funky reverb from bare walls and tile floors. Granted, it was ... | |
| Nola Metro Grand Reference Opinions I heard the Baby Grand Nolas at RMAF last year. Walking down the hall outside the room, I was drawn in by the very dynamic and clean sound being put out, as they were really turned up with a track from Gladiator playing, a big sounding orchestral ... | |
| DIY high end speakers? Check out the Parts Express Tech Talk board. Lot's of DIY activity and tutoring on developing the speaker of your dreams if some of the off the shelf DIY designs aren't quite what you're looking for. | |
| Rethinking my system: Your ideas are appreciated Are you using active high pass on the monitors, or are you running them full range, with the sub simply augmenting the lowest octaves?If you're not running an active XO between sub and mains, adding the ability to cut everything below 80Hz from th... | |
| Is good customer service about dead? Sprks, JP1208 would have received ALL his money back, minus the shipping charges he would have incurred in returning them to us for inspection. That was offered and refused.Mtruong34, giving a full refund on items that we hadn't inspected first wo... | |
| Best Speakers at RMAF 2011...? You know Sprks, this was already covered in that other thread. I'm surprised with your claimed intimate knowledge of that thread that you missed it.AireAudio and Luvs2listen are both the same guy. I created an account for a distributorship with Ar... | |

| Best Speakers at RMAF 2011...? Yeah, I did help. I sat and listened to a couple of crossover iterations that Ryan put together for the Breeze.What is your beef anyway? You mean the fans of various speakers shouldn't voice their opinions without disclosing they're fans?Give it a... | |
| Best Speakers at RMAF 2011...? You know Rose, you have an active imagination.That post you cited referred to a speaker system I was working on for a friend in Detroit who had no relation to Vapor. The design was conceived and implemented outside of Vapor, with the entire build ... | |
| What is meant by subwoofer room pressurization? That happens when the frequency produced by the sub has a longer wavelength than the room can support along any of its dimensions. Usually this occurs below 100Hz (11' wavelength). |
