Feelies cover song question. Jaybo,I lived in Hoboken, NJ in the early'80s and the Bongos were the de facto house band at a local bar called Maxwell's. (The Feelies were another house band there which is why I wrote Feelies in the original thread when I meant Bongos.) I saw b... | |
Feelies cover song question. I always thought it was a Bongos' original. Who knew?Thanks.Marty | |
Bassheads-DSP important????????Velodyne SMS?? Off my recent experience:My personal formula (and ymmv) for good properly integrated, deep bass from a sub requires (in order of importance):1) SMS-1. Will allow you to "see" your room above the range of the subs as well as properly integrate the ... | |
iPod Commercial/Reading Music Sorry, I should have noted that Music Ace uses a piano as it's reference. If your son is willing to learn piano and you can provide an 88 key midi controller ($200 and up)this could still be a great choice. Otherwise try to find a similar program ... | |
iPod Commercial/Reading Music You could try the software package called "Music Ace Deluxe" from Harmonic Visions software. I'm going to use it to teach my daughter to read music - and she's 3 years old. I've reviewed it over the last few weeks and feel that it's probably very ... | |
advantages/disadvantages of 2 subs..... Phase,If you haven't noticed from the above post, I might also have pointed out that Drew is an excellent resource for this question as is member Shadome. | |
Ohm Walsh Micro Talls: who's actually heard 'em? I drive my 100s with ss TAD mono amps, but I also own a pair of Prima Luna tube mono amps. I'll roll some KT88s into the PL and report back in a few days. All in the interest of science!MartyBTW, since I'm using subs, the Ohms should be a somewhat... | |
advantages/disadvantages of 2 subs..... there is a white paper by Harman Internation on the benefit of multipe subs - you can search for it in these forums. Beyond the placement issues, distortion for any sub goees up with increasing spl and decreasing hz. At the lowest frequencies, you... | |
Best high end monitors? Floyd,Before you do anything else, I'd add a (pair of) Bass Buster(s) or equivalent product from another brand like ATC. The manufacturer can advise as to the quantity and placement of these $350-$450 units for your room. My current room was a gia... | |
"Fun" Speaker As An Alternative To Revel Salon I Jeff,One reason I picked Ohm and Magnepan is that they offer a different radiating pattern (Omni and dipole, rspectively). If you're looking for a change up - like I was - this is one way to achieve it.MartyBTW - small floorstanders (no stands) ar... | |
"Fun" Speaker As An Alternative To Revel Salon I A small sub can sit silently in the corner when you're "Reveling" and you can find somme great small mains that are easily moved into place when you're not. Maggie MMGs and Ohm 100s are my choices to join a pair of Velodyne SPLR subs and an SMS-1 ... | |
What is the one CD you can't find? Many, many thanks.Marty | |
Ultimate test of your system image Whatever happened to "Space Age Bachelor Pad"?Is nothing sacred?Marty | |
New LPs with CDs inside Miner,That's "Gift of Screws", it's the title of an Emily Dickinson poem. It's also my favorite cd of this millenium so I have a question:Have you compared the LP to the CD and, if so, what's the deal?Thanks in advance,Marty | |
Subwoofer Frequency Response question Sharome,That is one very handy bit of info. It implies that there will always be an Fc, which can be raised as we place the speaker closer to the rear wall and lowered as we move it away. However, it leads to 2 questions:First question: If the can... |
