| First subwoofer for a newbie. This database may be helpful:http://www.hometheatershack.com/forums/subwoofer-tests-archived/6015-index-subwoofer-tests-manufacturer-model.htmlMarty | |
| It was 44 years ago that... Since someone eventually got around to Pet Sounds, I'll add a single (rather than an LP):Chuck Berry's 1955 release, "Maybellene", at which time - it could be argued - Rock n Roll is born.Marty | |
| What makes a speaker too big for a given room? A speaker can be too large for a room for any of the reasons already cited. However, specifically as to low bass and room size ("20hz is 20hz"):Quarter wave cancellation (reflections of omnidirectional low frequency waves - usually off the wall be... | |
| Bose Accumass EQ You could call Bose and tell them that the EQ unit was lost during a home move/relocation. See what they say. Kinda hard to believe that they'd turn away a customer in that situation, but who knows?Good LuckMarty | |
| guitar solos where less is more Dracule,Thanks for the links - really, really great. You included a couple of players I love (Roth and Emmanuel), a couple I hugely admire but don't love (Bream and Vai), and one that I've never heard of (Matt Rach). I thought that every choice yo... | |
| guitar solos where less is more To fully appreciate Onhyway 61's response:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9E1by7PocEForward to the 1:43 markThis nomination will not be beaten!Marty | |
| Fastest subwoofer? My bad. I have Minuettos and my experience refers to that model. I simply misread your original post.OTOH, I wouldn't be surprised if all of the older SF bookshelf speakers were voiced in a similar manner (midbass hump) and might be a tough match ... | |
| Fastest subwoofer? IME, the SF Minuetto will be a very tough mate for any subwoofer. The speaker's FR is significantly elevated thru the entire bottom octave (plus) of it's response. If you mate a sub for seamless transition at the crossover point, you'll have too m... | |
| Where stands the music of Chet Baker with you? Larry beat me to it. There's room in my life for anyone who can create that tone.Marty | |
| ever been duped ordering "new" CDs on Amazon? I buy +/- 50 CDs a year thru Amazon and have never had the problem (that I spotted, anyway). I choose to buy, rip, and send the original to the car, rather than download, burn, and send to the car. Not sure what kind of animal that makes me...Marty | |
| Any Integrated Amps w/Phono & 100-200 Watts Power? The HK 990 can be had new for $1500 (if you look around) and meets your criteria. It is, however, a very different animal - basically a full blown AVR, less any radio functions and set up for 2(.2) channel duty. An odd hybrid, but a great idea IMH... | |
| guitar solos where less is more Yikes! - I forgot to mention a couple of top line choices here:George Harrison - "Something". Simple, elegant, and purely in service to the song.The other side of that coin might feature Chuck Berry's solo on "Johnny B Goode". Short, simple and PE... | |
| guitar solos where less is more There's a couple of approaches that could satisfy the "less is more" description. Here are a few guitar solos that are short (less) and that don't feature rapid playing (less, again), but really serve the song (more):Todd Rundgren - "I Saw The Lig... | |
| Your perfectly produced/performed studio rock song Another choice: "The Theme from Shaft" by Isaac Hayes. Panpotting raised to an art form. |
