| Subwoofers is 5 is the Magic number? Well I have a pair of Talon Khorus I could sell you. The Roc sub is an isobaric design. Which back when it was bought seemed like the answer to "fast" bass. Now its clear fast bass is not due to a woofer being fast but to having a lot of woofers. ... | |
| LINN Ittok needs rewire Suggestions? This is quite the opportunity you have here. Done right this could be a major upgrade. Done right meaning first and foremost eliminate the DIN connector! Have them make you the best wire you can afford in the length you need terminated with RCA. S... | |
| Can anyone explain in laymans terms why your gear sound better after warm up I get burn in... should be called burn off just to get the manufacturing process off all the different manufacturers and parts to sweat off the packaging and sealants. But a light bulb is on or off. So SS gear in theory should sound the same. A li... | |
| Subwoofers is 5 is the Magic number? Five is magic for me too. Mine weren't near the placement problem yours were but then my room is more like 17x24x9, and its not just the room its the listening position as well. Everything in my room is spooky good dialed in for the sweet spot. Ha... | |
| New Years Resolution ....... Working on So, Peter Gabriel agonized over the song order. In Your Eyes should by all rights have been the grand finale. But Gabriel knew that putting it that far in its awesome bass would be a problem. Ultimately of course it wound up being the f... | |
| Interconnect Suggestion between Audio Valve Conductor preamp and Challenger 150 power amp Interesting fact, interconnects work exactly the same regardless of which components they're connected to. Its not the components that matter. Its the listener. | |
| Looking for Help with Speaker Jumper Cable Choice Why even bother with jumpers? Pull the speaker terminal plate, connect them internally, close it back up. If you want to sell some day another 5 min worth of soldering and they're back the way they were. | |
| Love it when it snows Well its good everyone likes it. What with the global cooling heading into another Maunder Minimum we can look forward to a continuation of the cooling trend for the next several years at least. | |
| homemade turntable vibration isolation platform Right. And it needs to be tuned according to both the frequency and amplitude of the vibration you're trying to filter out, as well as the mass and fundamental resonance of the device you're using. Normally the #1 most important source of vibratio... | |
| Stynergistic Research FEQ X 4 George uses derogatory language and scare quotes to describe people who actually know how to listen. That kinda says it all. | |
| Speaker Spike Help They measure 1.62 inches wide. My max is 1 inch.Remember they don't have to go the same place. They can be used anywhere flat so long as they are far enough apart to maintain stability.Also as far as height goes there are tables you can look up on... | |
| What do you think about this statement about "AUDIOPHILE"? Only this one tiny little part is correct:is not therefore about spending large amounts of money to effect step change and realize "night and day" improvement, but rather a gradual processAll the rest is off base. Especially the nonsense about spe... | |
| Speaker Spike Help BDR Cones are exact size you need and outstanding. They are flat on top and tapped for 1/4-20 threads commonly used on a lot of speakers. If the speaker is heavy enough then its weight alone will hold things in place and in that case you could use... | |
| Which of these power cords ? maxima95, probably repeating something he read somewhere (and without really thinking about it much before posting, never a good idea) writes:All of this nonsense about all the miles, nodes, transformers and such are just another B.S. line of thou... | |
| Why not put crossover networks in accessible compartments? It is also extra expense and complexity in a build, which raises retail prices, in order to satisfy maybe less than 0.01% of the potential buying public. That one in 1000 or less...who might tear the speaker apart and modify it. This^^^ Duh! Econo... |
