| Are you a Subwoofer abuser? @luxmancl38 -- The subwoofer can be fantastic or a monster. In my case I use my sub very conservatively. I don’t want to ruin the mid’s and top end w/to much bass. However I found a certain segment feels the bottom is the most important part of th... | |
| Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music? @smodtactical -- Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music?Unequivocally, yes. In fact, when practically feasible and without obstructing acoustics (and I’d go to great lengths to challenge named obstacles here), I’d much rather go with 2 big ... | |
| JL Gotham F212 v2 vs ? @chazzzy007 -- It’s not just about smoothing out modes. Its about recreating the subtle spacial textures in greater detail. [...]We certainly agree here, but I’d add smoothing out room modes could aid what you point out. Below the Schroeder freque... | |
| Belles research? @gryphongryph http://www.soundstagenetwork.com/measurements/amplifiers/belles_sa30/ | |
| JL Gotham F212 v2 vs ? @smodtactical --This is a pricey but seems to be a high quality well made sub. This is for a future listening space that would be 20x30. For some real power but control is there any other subs to consider at that price point or lower? For my money... | |
| High Sensitivity Speakers @atmasphere --Just to be clear, nowhere did I state thatWhat’s more, "flabby" and "slow" bass as an antithesis to "tight" is hardly a compelling trait as something associated with natural bass. Correct. I read your remark in reply to @chilli42's ... | |
| High Sensitivity Speakers @mahlman -- You touch on something rarely mentioned I fully agree with. Pro gear just has much more headroom and effortless superb output. All I would consider for my own use is now Klipsch pro gear starting with at least a KI-904 or better or old... | |
| High Sensitivity Speakers @chilli42 --I’d agree with poster @mrdecibel - 17 years of age shouldn’t be a problem, but there are interesting other options to be had if you’re so inclined. My recommendation, also to address the possible coherency issues pointed out above, wou... | |
| Low-sensitivity speakers — What's special about them? Hey, @timlub --Not sure what we’re doing here, but I’ll bite. I assume that you are simply saying that it can be achieved with horns.A combined effort perhaps of incorporating a horn/waveguide and letting an extra cross-over point come into play (... | |
| Low-sensitivity speakers — What's special about them? @timlub --Somehow I got around to base my first post only on the quoted passage by you, and not the whole post (I quoted the passage early the day before yesterday to reply, but didn’t get around to actually write it until later on, and so blissfu... | |
| Low-sensitivity speakers — What's special about them? @timlub --So you say "Percieved" and that these mid and bass drivers with good extension and little cone break up are readily available.... recently I’ve shopped a few hundred drivers looking for such. Please list the model numbers. Perhaps we’re ... | |
| Low-sensitivity speakers — What's special about them? @timlub --What it comes down to is... really good mids with any type of top end extension without cone break up is hard to find in true high sensitivity speakers.Perceived really good mids and upper range extension (i.e.: "any type of top end exte... | |
| Best bass in Earth! Bass that just smells right... @millercarbon --There is no stereo information at the lowest frequencies. Even if there is, there isn’t. I’m not gonna get into a technical spat over timing either. None of that matters. The simple fact is human beings cannot even hear low frequen... | |
| Best bass in Earth! Bass that just smells right... @haywood310 --From my experience so far.if you have two subs run them in stereo next to your mains. Basically creating "TRUE" full range speakers. No matter what your mains claim to be on the brochure. If you have more than two Mono is the way to ... | |
| Why go out??? Sorry for the late reply, @millercarbon. Actually I wasn't aware of that thread, but I went over it quickly and I'm impressed to see your findings. That's a great looking setup, and those main speakers I've never heard of/seen before. Well done! |
