| Aleph 5 + Dunlavy 4 Cdma: Sorry for sidetracking your thread with that "long" response to Felix. However, i hope that the link to the Stereophile review of the Dunlavy's is new to you ( and possibly others ) and comes in handy. It might at least make for a refresher ... | |
| Aleph 5 + Dunlavy 4 Felix: I have no "fear" of any comments or corrections that you would like to deliver. As such, have at it. As i've mentioned before, i would prefer to be publicly corrected than to be mis-informed and spreading dis-information.As far as the "acou... | |
| High End Myth Glossary. Albert wins hands down : )Mscommerce's comments are WAY too serious for this type of thread. Very good, but WAY too serious : ) Sean> | |
| ++++StereoPhile Class A components+++++ Kal: I meant that you only poke your head out from under the rock when it was safe to do so. No negative connotations implied as using that approach would only show a sign of "smarts". Your last comment ( or lack of one ) only proves the point : )... | |
| Silver DIY Interconnects Audioengr: I can't say that i have access to the same equipment that you do or the experience that you have designing / testing cabling, but i would think that impedance bumps and the resultant non-linear propagation that results might be somethin... | |
| Aleph 5 + Dunlavy 4 I have worked with one set of the original SC IV's ( not the re-designed "A" models ) a while back, another set of speakers* that are very similar in design but FAR more advanced and "tweaky" and several "good sized" speakers using MTM designs. As... | |
| Best bi-wire speaker cables under $1000 Audioengr: your comment "The crossover was designed to have identical signals at both the woofer and tweeter input circuits" would only apply to a speaker that offered bi-wiring as an "after the fact" attempt at marketing features. The above would... | |
| ++++StereoPhile Class A components+++++ Paul: That was a very nice overview of my past "discussions" with the folks at Stereophile, especially given our personal differences in the past. Hats off to you for being a complete gentleman about those differences and presenting a very fair sy... | |
| How much Power do speakers really use ??????? Pragmatist: I hope you understand the point that i was trying to make as my post was not meant as an attack on you personally or the information that you provided. I thought that the effort that you put forth in responding was very kind and covere... | |
| ++++StereoPhile Class A components+++++ Helcat: I don't know whether to take your post in jest or not. I wasn't trying to "name-drop", i was trying to point out that my comments / points of view have remained consistent regardless of who i was talking to and where it was said. For the r... | |
| ++++StereoPhile Class A components+++++ Helcat: My position about Stereophile ratings has not wandered one bit, nor am i "sucking up" to "a famed reviewer". Having said that, i'm NOT going to put Kal on the spot. I will only say that i've found his reviews to offer moments of critical i... | |
| Why do AC cords make so much difference? Digital is NOT an audio signal at it's point of origin or when being transferred in digital form. It is an RF based signal that operates above 3 MHz. As such, a design that makes use of some type of bandpass, high pass or low pass filtering or has... | |
| How much Power do speakers really use ??????? I would beg to differ with the conclusion that Pragmatist came up with regarding the B&W's. The figures that he quotes are for a listening distance of one meter from the speakers AND do not take into account speaker compression. I don't know o... | |
| Aleph 5 + Dunlavy 4 Felix: By mirror imaged, i was referring to the design of each individual speaker as a vertical array, not from side to side. The drivers below the tweeter are a mirror image of the drivers above the tweeter, etc...As far as the controlled dispers... | |
| Krell or Sunfire Prepro, need advice thank you If you end up choosing the Sunfire Pre / Pro, i would highly suggest using the balanced out to drive your amp ( if possible ). I've found that this works better than the single ended RCA operation with this unit and i know that a few others here o... |
