| Woofing "Q" I remember a white paper from Dunleavy on multi way speakers and his statement said that the only drivers that should be ported ( hi q) are the biggest ones. Does it make sense that you wouldn't want ported monitor and a sealed sub? idk Or does t... | |

| Over Excursion or Clipping... It sounds loud even if it really isn't - because of all the distortion. | |
| Woofing "Q" Shadorne's comment re: "sealed subs only" is probably, as a practical matter, good advice for a music only system, but it may be a bit of an overstatement.Marty,Who me ...make an overstatement...never ! LOL - Marty is right - my context is uncompr... | |
| Do I still need a DAC for a Logitech Transporter?? I agree with Jax2. | |
| Omni Speaker Options Beolab 5 sound good and look cool and have impressive dynamic bass (just don't push them too hard in the mid range) | |
| MOLD on compact discs If it is superficial then just wash them - water and soap - as suggested above.If the metal film is rotten in places (underneath the plastic sandwich) then there is nothing that can be done - copy the CD before it gets any worse (youu lose more tr... | |
| Help wanted. My NHT M00-S00s are whistlingI 3. Yes, a ground loop will develop if the cable or cable TV box are connected to your receiver/preamp/amplifier or computer, however, cable TV ground loop generates hum, not whine. Exactly my thought - I think we have a capacitor or other compone... | |
| Woofing "Q" Can you adjust the damping of a box,either sub or sat, acoustically by putting a 'brick' in the box or a 'sock' on the port?You can but it may change the freq response in an undesirable way even if it improves the transient response (group delay).... | |
| Woofing "Q" If the Q of your sub is a lot higher than your speakers then you will lose detail in the bass and lower mids and the sound will not be as clean and tight.Sealed subs are really the only way to go if you seek quality rather than an HT sound - but t... | |
| Help wanted. My NHT M00-S00s are whistlingI It seems to be the sub - have you tried the speakers without the sub. | |
| Spendor ST vs. B&W 803d vs. PMC PB1i ??? I would add that I made a mistake above - the Xmax of the Vifa driver appears to be a mere 1 mm not 3 mm. This performance is similar to most small dome tweeters that have a similar magnet size ...so you get the idea or why I would be concerned ab... | |
| Spendor ST vs. B&W 803d vs. PMC PB1i ??? Just a word of caution - you are looking at a fairly big investment in the PMC PB1i - I would check carefully the mid range driver. Just what is it???If it is VIFA D75MX-41-08 3" dome which it sure looks like it is! Then my advice would to be get ... | |
| Looking for New Speakers - Suggestions Budget is $2k for me so nowhere near Marten Design or Dunlavy. I really have never found a home speaker that was dynamic and exciting but could also quiet down and let me enjoy some old jazz vinyl I picked up from my father. Well at $2K budget yo... | |
| Normal Practice To Use 6 1/2" Sub With 8" Speaker? Computer programs that accurately model the bass response of loudspeakers do not use cone diameter for anything other than calculating maximum SPL. Exactly - that is where large woofers or several large woofers become important. And at low freque... |
