| Bass management -- the trick of putting absorbers at a front null How can it be from 0 to 180 degrees if it needs to intersect with null in the room from one wall to the other.. If it is only so wide (the null) and using the width of single panels, what goes by the panels (untreated) will literally come back and... | |
| Help with some big ol' used DIY speakers It looks like they have tweets and mids in the top.They would be a MTTM if they were on their side? or if one side on top was wired out of phase and pointed UP. The other 4 drivers toward the seated position. Might be really surprised how that s... | |
| Help with some big ol' used DIY speakers Some of the greatest speakers that ever were, are still in some folks imagination. Necessity is truly the mother of invention. I think it's a silhouette of a Klipsch kind of idea (La Scala / Corner hybrid) The problem is no horns. :-).Second a NEW... | |

| how can low watt tube amps drive speakers with higher power requirements Low power from the power amp or the Voltage/amperage from the power being supplied to your equipment?

You can load it via the charge port/ usb or hard connect for SSD and higher speed vs a physical HD.. Would that work? Some of the old Galaxies had pretty beefy processors, too. LOL More th... | |
| Tube Rolling Woes The voicing that was going right through you is most likely room treatment.. Un kind or bloated upper MIDS, mercy they can wear you out..Not to mention blistering LOWER highs. MC has a point too. 70 hours is pretty low hours for anything to get R... | |
| Don't get it, why anyone would ask others "what sounds best"? It's easier for you to listen than me. That make sense?Then I can narrow down what I want to listen to for a final test drive.. The older I get, that approach is starting to make REAL good sense to me. VERY little I will ever buy again anyway.. Ro... | |

| Ideas For A Beefy Solid State Amp For Subwoofer Duties George I use NU12000. Under 500.00 each new, not refurbished. They have TWO NU6000 modules per unit... You can't bridge them. Huge bang for the buck.. They push the heaviest loads I've ever tried.. AND they run even better with a 220-240 feed.. I'... | |
