| Better to change Speakers first or new Preamp+amp Rockadanny,As for room, I'd say for a very small room (12 x 12 feet) then I'd tend to lean towards a nearfield listening position, away from any walls and with small monitors and a sub. The intention would be to reduce the impact of the room as mu... | |
| Jeff Beck "performing this week" OMG wow! I take it this is on the DVD? Yes. Enjoy! | |
| Better to change Speakers first or new Preamp+amp Speakers come second directly after finding a good room for you system. | |
| subwoofers and panels don't mix Marty,Indeed, it is fair to say that the importance of low group delay increases significantly as you go above 40 Hz. However low distortion remains important right down to 20Hz because an 80 Hz harmonic of a 20 Hz signal is likely to be quite lou... | |
| subwoofers and panels don't mix My conclusion is that careful set-up (probably including EQ) likely trumps specific sub performance. IOW, I suspect that the specs we use are measuring stuff I can't hear (or, at least, hear very well). YMMV. You have a good point. Room modes and... | |

| Ceiling Exhaust Fan -How loud is .5 sones? I just read an DIY article about an exhaust fan with .5 sones and the author gave a real life example: In his bedroom, the fan ran very quite that he was 10' away and he couldn't tell if it was On or not. That's a very good info for me. The guy i... | |
| Ceiling Exhaust Fan -How loud is .5 sones? Forget Sones those are all WAY to loud - sound like jet engines. You need something with DbA of around 10 at one meter (a big very slow moving fan if you want to move a lot of air). You can hear about 15 to 30 db below the noise floor and this mea... | |
