| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @kota1 , I'd rather not turn my media room into a post office. It is also not a good idea to have a light source in a projection theater, another mistake. | |
| SPU People: I love my Royal N. Which SPU will I like even better? @edgewear , I am not sure where this attraction to old HiFi gear comes from. The absolute best combination from my childhood suffers in comparison to the best modern systems. In my view it is all about the best performance. I acknowledge that othe... | |
| SPU People: I love my Royal N. Which SPU will I like even better? @edgewear, the Replcant 100 is a much more advanced profile than the shibata. It tracks with less noise and set up correctly causes less record wear. @dhcod , as edgewear suggests you are better off looking at cartridges with advanced stylus prof... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @kota1 , The TACT was SOTA until just recently and there are still some things the newer processors won't due. It's major problem is that it's ancient processor is not fast enough so you have to make sure you are operating it near 0dBfs, something... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @thespeakerdude , it is sad to see someone who professes to be a professional be so poorly educated as to not understand basic acoustics. Do yourself a favor and go back to school. | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @juanmanuelfangioii , Not at all. I REALLY think your moniker is in bad taste. | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @thespeakerdude , No it is not speakerdude. I measure everything I do and since when are line array characteristics just theory? They are very easily demonstrated. There are very few hard boundaries is acoustics, everything has a slope. For all i... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @thespeakerdude , If a subwoofer driver is right against a wall (in a corner) as part of a line array on the floor there is no first reflection until you get to the ceiling. The wave is beginning at the wall (no delay). A line array does not radia... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @lonemountain , I beg to differ Brad. Subs belong in corners. That is where they are most efficient. I have been using digital signal processing including full range room control for 25 years. My main speakers are ESLs and I high pass them at 100 ... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @kota1 , absolutely not. I have a unique problem in that my speakers are full range line sources. In order for a subwoofer system to keep up with them the subwoofers need to form a linear array. On a 16 foot wall that requires at least 4 separate ... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @phusis , The problem most of us face with subwoofers with normally sized rooms in a residential setting is SIZE. Horn loaded subwoofers would have to be huge to work correctly. Same thing goes for the enclosures required to house a 21" subwoofer.... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @thespeakerdude 1+ @kota1 There are very few speakers that do anything gracefully below 50 Hz. The specs are highly misleading. Standard frequency response measurements are taken at one meter. That is fine for wavelengths one meter or less. The l... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @kota1 , You do not want to add another processor. The best way to do it is add 2 subs, one to each channel and stay with a 2.2 system which is what I do, two subs per channel. Remember the main speakers are equal volume at the crossover point and... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @thespeakerdude , I do not care if you can produce a complicated enclosure or not. I am not limited by financial and space confines. I can build whatever I want. That is the beauty of DIY. If you have the tooling, you can make just about anything.... | |
| High mass vs Low Mass Turntables - Sound difference? @lewm , Thank you. I was getting cross eyed. @bdlitzer , you are right about issue. Isolating the turntable from vibration and turning into heat as fast as possible is the right approach to turntable design. All of the best turntable sound exact... |
