Primare A30.1 or Odyssey/Rogue
hi bob,i'd have no concern w/melos' current operation, melos audio restorations. talk w/brant nordlund 702.248.6754. melosaudio@aol.com. i sent him my m-d due to a couple issues i had w/it when i 1st got it - due to the problems the *old* melos ha... 
Bob Marley Reissues
hotcorocket, i tink yure missin' da boat on this thread, if ya don't mind my sayin' so - seems to me it's obviously directed towards marley fans. of *course* if ya don't like marley or this album, ewe won't like it even if the recording is so good... 
opinions on the blue point special
glr, i tink all the posts above are basically correct - w/one glaring exception - the one that sez the bps is a piece of garbage. it may be many tings, but a piece of trash it definitely ain't. may be better or worse in some systems than others, c... 
BIAMPING
ral, there should be no problem w/running a full-range amp signal into each individual driver of a biamp-ready speaker - it wood *not* send hi-freq info to the woofer & bass info to the mid/tweet, unless ewe also went inside & disconnected... 
Is sound "additive"?
liguy, i have no disagreements w/yer last comment... ;~) regards, doug s. 
Primare A30.1 or Odyssey/Rogue
hi bob,i had the rogue in my home for ~2 months, & no, it wasn't hooked-up incorrectly. re: its inwerting polarity, this is a wery minor diference that many people cannot even hear; many recordings inwert polarity back-n-forth on several track... 
Is sound "additive"?
btw, the proper reason to use two subs in a system instead of one, is *not* to increase the spl of the bass - this wood only make the sound too bass-heavy in relation to your monitors. as said before, a second sub allows the *same* spl's w/reduced... 
Is sound "additive"?
liguy, there is no theoretical reason why a properly set-up 2-channel subwoofer system would not be in phase - unless one subs' speaker leads were hooked up backwards from the other - just like w/a pair of regular full-range speakers, being driven... 
Primare A30.1 or Odyssey/Rogue
i would strongly recommend a melos preamp for the same, or less money than the rogue. i auditioned the rogue 99 & the melos ma333/music director, & there was absolutely no comparison - the melos is far nicer, in all areas, imho.there are c... 
TEACH ME ABOUT BI-WIRE
paulwp, if i unnerstand ya correctly, i should try the yumpers *and* biwiring at the same time? and, yust yumper the negative while biwiring? as i'm currently using only one amp, - i traded my electrocompaniet aw100 for an aw75 to match my existin... 
Is sound "additive"?
i'm not sure if my math is correct but i *do* know that, basically, ewe have to double your power to get an additional 3db of gain. so, perhaps, if one subwoofer is playing at 90 db, adding a second at 90db (which is another way of doubling the po... 
TEACH ME ABOUT BI-WIRE
i was under the impression that biwiring, in some cases, can be effective because the back-voltage going thru the wiring of the woofer is now separated from the wiring to the the tweeter, even tho it eventually meets up back at the amplifier. i be...
