My Apologies to Miller Carbon
An Australian aboriginal boy would have picked up the snake by the tail, cracked it like a whip breaking it’s neck, and taken it down the mountain to cook it and eat it. Probably with Sweet Baby Ray’s Chipotle and Mesquite sauce, because Texan BBQ... 
Class D amps seem poised to take over. Then what?
@georgehifi - to be clear here, I saw the post after mine (above this) and I wasn't be combative, I was giving you the benefit of the doubt.I know a bit more than Ohms laws, so I have genuine interest as to the limitations. Which there very well m...

@georgehifi - wouldn’t it depend on the original rating at 8ohms, the power supply rating that feeds the class D modules?I’m not pretending to know, I’m just posing the question: if the power supply is engineered to supply enough current at 1ohms ... 
My Apologies to Miller Carbon
Possibly not the right thread for this...Without being too specific in my questioning;Will you be cooking ribs on the weekend of the 14th-15th August? Apparently a foodie will be flying into WA from New Hampshire that weekend. Perhaps we can get y...

Keep your Dingos away from him What does that even mean?@georgehifi - I read the book written by the Chamberlain's lawyer, and learnt a lot about Dingos, they are most closely related (genetically) to the timber wolf. Highly intelligent is accur...

Even Troels with all Z caps = xovers cost more than the drivers,,!!!!!...Can not match a high sens performance in mids/highs.- mozartfan How much to invest, and where the diminishing returns lay, is how well the drivers could possibly play toge... 
Isolation question. Monitor on Subwoofer
Again, you are invited to show us at the "gathering".I'll be the first to admit I am a budget driven audiophile, when offered something triple or more the cost - it had better deliver better performance.At least two of us are on board for technolo...

As someone else mentioned the values of every component in the crossover are the more important in the voicing of the speaker, taking into account the character and limitations of the drivers used together, than the quality of the crossover compon... 
Isolation question. Monitor on Subwoofer
@avanti1960 - I am so sorry, I didn't really look at the year.It's an old and long dead thread. Excuse me.Actually it's not entirely without merit, using springs and the substrate to isolate both the tops and the bottoms. We've seen many smaller s... 
Townshend Seismic Podiums
With the Podiums (or Pods) in place, the loudspeaker enclosure does not move in response to the moving mass of a woofer reproducing a very low frequency, “For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction” Newton’s third law of motion. Th...

Missed him by that much! 
Isolation question. Monitor on Subwoofer
https://systems.audiogon.com/systems/9064#&gid=1&pid=14This is hilde45's system page, the 5th last photo shows a stand with a sub under it. Imagine the sub with isolation, and the stand mount with isolation.Something like that would be great.

You can make a system page, post your pictures, edit them, remove them etc. https://systems.audiogon.com/Login and create a system page, use that to link pictures of your system, or pictures you want to show specifics on, and say which picture you...
