Recomendations for using 2 4ohm woofers in a 3way.
OOPS. Meant to state series hookup instead of parallel (for preferred method).Steve RothermelEngineer/Associate 
Recomendations for using 2 4ohm woofers in a 3way.
Yes. It happens in commercial designs ALL the time.Would I do it? No. Dropping the impedance to approx 1.5 ohms or lower in the midbass - where most music energy is - invites current dumping from the amp and generally overtaxes the amp. Yes, watts... 
Have you seen the VR9SE Review?
"...a year to write, is like writing a review of a $200m movie that 20 people are gonna see."Jaybo, good point. You may be right and here's how I see that: A year's worth of time and $200m reflects the value one places on those 20 people. What a w...

BTW, meantime, till you get this all figured out, why don't sit back and just enjoy some MUSICCheers!RobertRSAD 
long interconnects and short speaker cables
You'll do well if you use 600 meter I/Cs with a pre impedance source that has 6 outputs per Ohm. On speakers use 6 speaker cables per foot. Your speakers should have treble.The other option you might consider is using 600 speakers stacked so you o... 
how do cable variables contribute to cable sound
I'm willing to be corrected here if I'm wrong but I read Mrt's questions as "What do I need to know if I wanted to design cables?" As a manufacturer, I'm not too inclined to give out formulas or techniques that accomplish certain sonic attributes ... 
how can a line cord affect frequency response ?
Hi John.Robert, how can one lay his/her hands on one of these Vol II discs?It's in there. ;) Or do you mean how can anyone get Vol.I or II?Best,RobertRSAD 
how can a line cord affect frequency response ?
Saw a couple posts about correctly designed power supplies. Certainly correctly designed PSUs are important and contribute significantly to good sound but unless I'm mistaken, most PSUs have nothing except maybe a snubber before the primary. This ...

Mrt, I didn't know ducks could quake. That must be one feakin' duck! Look out energizer bunny...Free quaking duck with the purchase of any of our power cords till December or till all ducks have gone South.Kindly,RobertRSAD 
how can a line cord affect frequency response ?
Hi Mrt.Your listening preferences stated HERE.I would say the "P"!!! I/Cs are a great I/C that didn't meet your listening biases. Assuming you have listened to the "P"!!! I/Cs I would say this: Had you contacted us for your purchase instead of buy... 
how can a line cord affect frequency response ?
Hi Mrt.if you have heard products, in this case power cords, which to your ears affect the sound in a certain way why not mention them, especially if someone requests such information.You'll never see RSAD do that on the boards. I would suggest if...

Hi Cleo.Thanks and you're welcome, glad you like Vol.II. I'm still kind of struggling with some of the selections.Hi Wellfed.The Z-der came out of our research of power cords. It basically re-clocks and corrects the relationship between the voltag...
