| Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) Another very good value speaker model that just came to mind that I found to be most polite in the top end are Goldenear Aon3. Thing is the MLs, which I have not heard, appear to use a similar folded ribbon tweet like the Goldenear so it surprises... | |
| Inner tracks vs outer tracks A simple examination of any record will demonstrate that the geometry of the grooves changes continuously from outer to inner grooves as the diameter of the record decreases. It’s the best they could do when conceived over 100 years ago. Yes the t... | |
| Is Wife Acceptance Factor (WAF) sexist? Don’t worry MC you fuss and complain all the time and you are still here. | |
| Is imaging reality? It's a simulation. That's the best we can shoot for. | |
| Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) Stands could be less than 26", perhaps just a few inches elevated off floor with slight tilt up/back, if needed, like with the Isoacoustics I referenced above. | |
| Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) hilde,The speakers are directional so the most higher frequency energy fires straight ahead. I’d expect way more distance to the facing wall to be beneficial in reducing reflections overall. That and/or lowering the speaks as discussed (combined p... | |
| Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) Hmm well I did not catch the location within the room but firing down the long dimension to reduce reflected sound amplitude from walls and provide more flexibility with seating location and distance from rear wall sounds like a good thing to try ... | |
| Jazz vocalists which may not be as real as we think/imagine Keep Sophie Millman out of it. She has a wonderful sultry voice and delivery and the recordings are quite good. | |
| Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) ..except MC is not being forthcoming because on his thread about his new speakers he indicates he will be making various thus far undisclosed modifications so it does not appear to be etched and done at all. Which is it? Knowing MC it will be both... | |
| Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) ..etched and supposedly to be modified for reasons unknown.......MC you should think before you brag sometimes. Maybe get off the wacky weed. | |
| Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) Ha well being driving distance from a place like The Music Room certainly opens up many possibilities! | |
| Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) Shorter good quality towers is probably a decent option like monitors, as long as tweets are lower. I would often suggest someone having brightness issues and willing to try something completely different consider Ohm Walsh speakers, which tend to... | |
| Speaker shootout update; aggressive treble eliminating some (fairly?) When it comes to difficult rooms, less/smaller speaker is often the ticket to better results (with fewer room treatments).Once you have a handle on the frequencies where most of the music occurs, ie the midrange, then you might consider adding pow... | |
| Difference Maker! You can get ear cleaning kits at any local drugstore. They work well for me. Any way you do it keeping ears clean should be tweak #1. | |
| Subwoofer. Great one song. Not so great the next song. Makes sense. Glad the problem was resolved. |
