| Teledyne AR-9 Towers????? For sake of clarity, the model that Bob aka Steeler8 mentions is the AR-9Ls. The standard AR-9 made use of two 12's, one mounted on each opposing side panel of the speaker near the very bottom of the cabinet. This was done to achieve specific load... | |
| Review of Dartzeel NHB-108 Amplifier Jtinn: I have publicly described how a product will sound and / or respond based on electrical measurements that i've seen. On more than one occassion, folks that have owned or used these products have confirmed those comments at the time of posti... | |
| Sound lab - Eminent Technology - Innersound A curved panel is MUCH more difficult and costly to build if trying to achieve both good and consistent results. When it comes to mass production and profit margins, time and cost are things that a manufacturer tries to keep to a minimum. If they ... | |
| New journey - Samsung HD841 Universal Player My guess is that there is quite a bit of variance on these units going from piece to piece. If you look on Ebay, there are TONS of "refurbished" units floating around. In order to have so many refurb's, there had to be a lot of "defective" units t... | |
| Legacy Classics and bottom end? By "sonic combo", i meant a combination of gear that adds up to a specific sonic presentation. In your case, it could be possible that your gear adds to the heavy bass that you're hearing.As far as driver size goes, a smaller driver is NOT necessa... | |
| Teledyne AR-9 Towers????? Here's a link to the Classic Speakers website. You can find gobs of info on AR's there. Sean>http://www.classicspeakerpages.net/ | |
| New journey - Samsung HD841 Universal Player In the past, Joe ( Trelja ) and i have shared many common sonic observations. With this one, we are experiencing very different sonics at this point. Then again, the unit that i purchased was a floor model, so who knows how many hours it spent sit... | |
| speaker cable that will soften the highs Rsbeck's comments are very good. I would add that not only can speaker placement, room acoustics and listening position change the tonal balance that you hear, but that component selection also comes into play here. With all of that in mind, if yo... | |
| Legacy Classics and bottom end? Some of your problem may be system related ( sonic combo of electronics ), but your speakers have very definite problems internally. Changing cabling and electronics may help to reduce how obvious this is, but short of re-designing or getting rid ... | |
| Subwoofer with 2 channel stereo setup Donbellphd: I can see how this approach would help a speaker where the woofer covered much more than just the last few octaves i.e. was more of a mid-woofer than a woofer. Woofers really shouldn't go up much above 200 Hz or so, otherwise, they ten... | |
| Sound lab - Eminent Technology - Innersound Ya know what the "funny" thing about this is Brian? Roger Sanders, the original owner / designer of Innersound, is the guy that "invented" curved panel E-stat's. The fact that none of the Innersound's make use of this design approach has always ba... | |
| 15" vs 18" subwoofer - which to buy? There are too many other design factors to consider than just cone area, especially in your "limited use" situation. This is why we have Thiel-Smalle parameters as it describes most all of the aspects of the driver. Once you know all of those fact... | |
| Behringer DEQ2496 - wow Smeyers: The Behringer acted as if the system was lacking bass and treble due to the SM-57's lack of extension and corrected accordingly i.e. increased the lows and highs. As such, i would "assume" that the Behringer is taking things in stride in ... | |
| Best Song or AlbumTitles? I've got about a half dozen more songs / "videos" for that band, all done in the same vein. If enough people are interested, i'll post links to them. The "cool" thing about it is that all of these "videos" were made by fans for the band, not by th... | |
| Behringer DEQ2496 - wow Danner: I hear ya and understand where you're coming from. The problem is that they can skew the response of the device to compensate for the mic's response, but who's to say that all the cheap mass produced mic's will have the same non-linearitie... |
