| Does Plugging Bass Port Affect Pace, Rhythm and Timing? Thanks erik,It's been a very long time since I have been the details of speaker design. I burned out on the technical side of this hobby years ago and don't follow it near as much (that's one reason it's taking me forever to get around to setting... | |
| Does Plugging Bass Port Affect Pace, Rhythm and Timing? Plugging the port of a speaker tends to reduce efficiency, does it not? | |
| Just received the Double Impacts (upgraded version) Great to hear you are so happy with your new speakers.Sounds wonderful from your description. | |
| Any Way To Damp Ringing Stands Without Adding Weight??? I had to dampen my thin and ringing old Lovan Classic stand (which was to hold up a big new turntable).I didn't care to pour crap of any sort into the poles. So I lined both the insides of the metal shelf bracing, and the vertical poles, with th... | |
| Thiel Owners Had a fascinating experience with the Thiel 2.7s last night.As I’ve mentioned before, they image with a specificity like few other speakers in my experience.Last night I was listening to the album in which the California Guitar Trio combined force... | |
| Thinking of Kef Blade 2 to replace Revel Salon 2 If only I had room for JA Pearls.... | |
| Former Tekton owners: What have you moved on to? Wait, are you sure you guys don't all know people who have sold their $20,000 speakers for the $3,000 Tektons? Are you guys just missing the boat? There is a paradigm shift going on here!;-) | |
| Thiel Owners LOL. Turned out somehow (I don't know how) the thread sorting had switched from "oldest first" to "newest first" which is why all the new posts weren't appearing to me at the end. Whew! Never mind.... | |
| Thiel Owners Uh oh.Anyone else experiencing weirdness with this thread? At least on my browser the posts now cut off at page 55 where the last posting date is early 2016. I hope it's only a glitch on my end and that we haven't lost all the subsequent posts! | |
| Thinking of Kef Blade 2 to replace Revel Salon 2 I haven't heard the Blades much except at one audio show. I heard the most realistic presentation of piano that I've ever heard from a speaker! | |
| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars markalarsen,So do I understand you are using the Perspectives without a subwoofer now?As for speakers: I find pretty much every speaker sounds better if the source, or associated equipment, is providing a better signal. Certainly every of the ver... | |
| Whatever I Did, It Worked. I've recently been playing around with a curved diffusor I bought from Acoustic Geometry:https://www.acousticgeometry.com/products/curve-diffusor/My room is well treated, and I can make it a bit more live or dead via moving some curtains. My Left... | |
| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars @markalarsen Thanks.Any reason you chose Perspectives vs Pulsars with a subwoofer?When I was shopping the JA speakers I wasn't thinking subwoofer (because I usually hate subs) but I'm giving some JL subs a go soon in my current set up with my Thie... | |
| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars @rlb61 Ha!We really are on the same wavelength. I just recently got my new Transrotor turntable up and running - my leap into high end vinyl playback - and last night my album of choice was...Regatta de Blanc! My old copy. It actually sounded incr... | |
| Incoming ... Joseph Audio Pulsars @rlb61 You mentioned your admiration for the Pulsar's cloth dome tweeter.I agree. It's special, or the implementation of that tweeter is, anyway.Though all the cliches about tweeters don't always hold true, in general I tended to find metal tweet... |
