| Speaker size and soundstage knotscott90 posts06-06-2021 5:39amSound stage has more to do with phasing, crossover points, driver dispersion, driver placement, and the shape and size of t ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Soundstage is defined by the sensitivity of the speaker and quality of mate... | |
| Speaker size and soundstage Wouldn't the end goal of loudspeaker design be to get as small as possible? ~~~~~~~~~~This is the new science, The New 21wst C speaker is a lotttt smaller , much less weight vs the old models and is far superior in soundstage/fidelity. My Seas... | |
| Speaker size and soundstage Many times a simple two way monitor will offer a superior and huge image ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Size again does not matter. Huge speakers always, always lose out vs a high quality 2 way,. Take a Seas W22 Graphene with Mundorf;'s SESGO caps + a massiv... | |
| I finally added a second REL Sub frequency range and volume very low. Just enough to augment the bottom octave, and not feature the subs. I'm only occasionally aware my sub is on. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~No matter how low you set the sub to isolate for voicing only the lows, still... | |

| Speakers The single most critical component but this is not gospel. ~~~~~~~~~~This is what I am preaching, and no other doctrine/dogmas.Sens is the most critical spec when considering midrange/tweeter fq's. There I re-adjusted my thesis. Excluding woofers, as my W18E001's are 87db yet s... | |
| Speakers The single most critical component box, that 7 inch SL driver has response down to 30-40 hz. Why give up this low end for a higher efficiency when amp power is so affordable these days? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Well some of what i said above has tp be qualified, re-hashed in view of fu... | |

| Wheels for floor standing speakers For this reason I would never ever consider any speaker over say,,,60 lbs TOPs, 50 lbs is more like it, Speakers do not need to weigh more than 50 lbs for high fidelity sound. Bigger is NOT always better. My Thors are like 60, right at the max wei... | |
| Beginner looking for guidance into tube sound. be in the $1000. range but would go to $1500 ~~~ Used Cayin, but these are rare/very hard to come by.New is under 1500, or LM(Line magnetic) intergrated KT88Either amp is a good bang for the buck. |
