| Soft Dome tweeter Sometimes they will just pop back out on their own. Might take a few days. Happened with mine but so long ago I forget how long it took. Or you could try a little suction. Not vacuum cleaner suction. Although you could use a vacuum cleaner and a s... | |
| Comparing systems through phone recordings You have entered a world of mystery and imagination. It is a dimension as vast as space and as empty as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears an... | |
| Sunday Morning sounds Yeah early enough on a Sunday the power can be quite clean. If you like it now, leave it on all day and wait till you hear it later on in the night. | |
| Auditioning amplifier gear: simultaneous auditions, online retailers you trust? The next stage is to choose an amp which has the right character and power for the speakers I choose. I can't recommend this approach. The exception would be maybe if you find speakers you fall in love with and just can't live without. Even then... | |
| Home Theater Done Right: Millercarbon's System slaw,Yeah with vibration control its a combination of mass, stiffness and damping. Mass alone improves the low bass foundation but it will be a bit bloated and not tight the way you want. Lead shot in a bag is like this. Stiffness alone is great f... | |
| Do I need a sub? Search Swarm subwoofer, distributed bass array or DBA, and read posts on subs by millercarbon, noble100, and Audiokinesis, hallowed be thy name. | |
| Are your speakers designed for your listening taste and hearing ability? daveyf, raising a slew of different questions-It occurs to me that speaker manufacturer’s and designers in many cases design their speaker ( and its subsequent sound) to the expected ’typical’ buyer.Yeah well a lot of things happen "in many cases"... | |
| Toole and why I like Tone Controls In all of audio reproduction theater sound reproduction is among the most rigidly controlled areas of audio.In fact its not controlled at all. This is complete misrepresentation. As usual.The only thing you could possibly be referring to is THX.... | |
| Home Theater Done Right: Millercarbon's System There’s a synergy to the way the system is laid out that people should know. Its not apparent from the photo’s but the stepdown transformer is on the other side of the floor directly beneath the amps. Power comes up and out through the hardwood co... | |

| As good as it gets Yes but that is the answer to the question of I don't like this but they tell me it just needs to burn in, is that true? And the answer in that case is: no.But that's not the question here now, is it? The first question the OP asked has been answe... | |
| Home Theater Done Right: Millercarbon's System Good question! Dive weights. I’m a PADI Advanced Open Water Diver. Discovered years ago mass not only dampens vibration it also improves dynamics and slam and bass extension. Not to mention some stuff like the Oppo is so darn light and power cords... | |
| Comparing systems through phone recordings To hear the basics of the amp - speaker - room integration.Yes well that one's a lot harder. The thing of it is, its all about comparison. Even in our own rooms with our own systems we can't meaningfully compare if we change several things at onc... | |
| How many speaker companies? Weeding? Why is it I get the image of you flying a fleet of 747s across the planet dumping Roundup faster than they can make it? You would be Drax in Moonraker, destroying all audio life in order to remake it in your image. Your perfect image, I m... | |
| So It`s Ok To Mix and Match Ported and Sealed Subwoofers ?? Yes well that is real rosewood veneer, and added about $500 compared to painted MDF. Just don't look too close, it will quickly become apparent these are not at the same level of professional finish detail as say the Audiokinesis Swarm. Not that I... |
