| New Magnepan "Concept Speaker" introduced at Audio Connection Sorry, I need to make a correction and add a comment from my last post:The 4 AK Debra subs are actually each 12"Dx14.5"Wx28"H, not 18"H as I mistakenly stated.I also should have added that, no matter which option chosen, the utilization of ba... | |
| New Magnepan "Concept Speaker" introduced at Audio Connection For those thread readers interested in trying out the 4-sub DBA concept in their rooms, I think it's simplest just to buy a complete DBA kit like the Audio Kinesis Swarm or Debra systems for about $3K. These systems consist of 4 relatively s... | |
| Subwoofers and Phase Question For You Sub Experts gosta:"Tried the "swarm" approach and moved four subs into the room but unfortunately found out that they all have about the same tops and dips wherever placed (+/- 20 db from 25 to 100 Hz).

| Subwoofers and Phase Question For You Sub Experts Hello Duke, Thanks for clarifying the awards your AK Swarm system has received, all well deserved. If you don’t mind, it seems like a few things need clarifying about attaining good bass response performance using subs. The first issue concerns th... | |
| Subwoofers and Phase Question For You Sub Experts The truth is that the 4-sub Distributed Bass Array (DBA) Concept actually works like a proverbial charm! There are no ifs ands or buts, no maybes, no under the right conditions, no excuses, no fear and loathing, no terms, no conditions, no s... | |
| New Magnepan "Concept Speaker" introduced at Audio Connection Hello bdp24, I completely agree with you that most systems sound bass shy. I believe almost all music sounds its best when there's a solid bass foundation down to at least 20 Hz. I don't expect or want high SPL bass like an arena rock concer... | |
| New Magnepan "Concept Speaker" introduced at Audio Connection Hello bdp24 and josh358, Have you two gentlemen ever listened to a pair of the Magnepan DWM dipole woofer panels? I intentionally described them as woofer panels, as opposed to subwoofer panels, because they only have rated bass output extensi... | |
| New Magnepan "Concept Speaker" introduced at Audio Connection It makes a lot of sense that the true-ribbon and quasi-ribbon dipole plana-magnetic transducers, for the midrange and treble output, are positioned next to each other in the same panel. This is because soundwaves in these frequency ranges ha... | |
| Time to buy a class D amp? audiozenology:" It's a complex interaction of mechanical resonance, electrical resonance, and mechanical and electrical damping which occurs when you try to stop a woofer faster than it is physically capable of."Hello audiozenology, I believe... | |
| Time to buy a class D amp? Hello serhan62, I've become a big fan of class D amps through research and personal experience gained by using several examples in my own system. But I believe all amp types have their pros, cons, compromises and limitations and that class D ... | |
| New Magnepan "Concept Speaker" introduced at Audio Connection mr_m:"Does it have conventional cone woofers like a hybrid, or no???" The 3.7i are dipole 3-way planar-magnetic panel speakers with a true ribbon treble section, a quasi-ribbon midrange section and a quasi-ribbon bass section. The true-ribbon... | |
| Time to buy a class D amp? Hello atmosphere, Please don't treat my occasional post questions directed to you, and your vast amp design knowledge and experience, as anything even remotely close to an attempt at rushing your class D amp design and development efforts. Of... | |
