| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment Tbg,Ok so you are on the science high horse. Well you are absolutely right on. I plead guilty as charged to willfully dampening our understanding of the nature of Rain X and CD treatment. What about you? Are you going to do something about it? Why... | |
| Stereo Subs - Do they need to be identical? Here is the link to calculate the wall bounce from reflections. If you use stereo subs then you can assume the same thing will happen up to a couple of octaves above the crossover (when the effect starts to become negligible compared to the many o... | |
| Stereo Subs - Do they need to be identical? Funnily enough the link I gave above came from a manufacturer... The link also shows up to a 20 DB SPL hole in the bass in some cases due to quarter wave cancellation and a succession of harmonically related cancellations further up in frequency (... | |
| Rain-X as CD Enhancement Treatment I am a social scientists and find it quite curious that many who profess to value science, refuse to listen ...science does not value ambiguous individual human subjective interpretation/opinions.Either...Perform a controlled double blind test wi... | |
| Stereo Subs - Do they need to be identical? Again, if using monitors, stereo subs next to them is definitely the general recommendation. And it most assuredly does matter that much The reason I suggest to avoid stereo sub placement like you describe is to avoid quarter wave rear wall cance... | |
| Best high end monitors? Madfloyd,If you are Mad about Floyd as in Pink FLoyd then do try to hear some ATC's. David Gilmour uses them in Astoria (Pink Floyd's studio in London) as does their engineer, James Guthrie, Das Boot Studio. Their stuff has been mastered by Doug S... | |
| "Fun" Speaker As An Alternative To Revel Salon I Since you have a sub that closes one avenue to spice things up a bit. In that case, I'd pick the Harbeth Compact 7 from what you mentioned - a nice change of pace. | |
| Stereo Subs - Do they need to be identical? As you go towards small ported subs you tend to get more harmonic distortion thermal compression, lower overall SPL output and poor transient response. It is just physics and heavy helpings of compromise. Larger is better when it comes to subs. Se... | |
| What channels are heard in a comercial theater?? Assuming the movie soundtrack has only 5 channels, do those speakers on the side play information from the front channels or rear channels? Side channels but they will probably do tricks with frequency response and phasing to make sure the sound ... | |
| Best high end monitors? Currently trying JM Focal Electra 1007 BE's. Don't have the sub(s) hooked up yet, but find the tweeter a little forward and the image a little smallish for my taste Try something with a soft dome tweeter and definitely go for a sealed box. Someth... | |
| "Fun" Speaker As An Alternative To Revel Salon I do you have a sub? | |
| What channels are heard in a comercial theater?? They use speaker arrays to get a more even soudn experience through the large theatre. Speakers will most likely be horns (some dipole some direct). The sound is surround processed for the array from the soundtrack. This part will be customized to... | |
| Gain Pop....causes?? Strange - this would more likely be a pot issue. Pots can be quite variable in relative change for a given rotation at the very lowest end of their scale. It is quite possible that accuphase C200 came with different pots throughout their manufactu... | |
| channel cutting in and out Dirty Pot?How old is the amp? | |
| How to go from RCA to XLR? My thanks to Shadorne for calling this paper to my attention. You're welcome - Bill Whitlock used to work at Capitol Records - he is a member of IEEE and AES. What he says is obviously designed to help raise awareness and promote Jensen products ... |
