| Flat Anechoic Measured Frequency Response Speakers Jkalman,You have me convinced. I'll order it. | |
| Best new loudspeaker i have never noticed a note jumping out at me. perhaps, it is because my favorite location is the last row orchestra. The reason certain notes jump out at you when listening to more of reverberant field compared to a direct sound field is because... | |
| Looking for speakers with soundstage depth Marty,I agree about mini-monitors playing the disappearing act and great imaging, however, I agree with MrT and others that suggest that dipole designs will consistently throw a "deep" soundstage (even if it isn't a particularly good recording the... | |
| Best new loudspeaker Try the Orions (I own a pair) - they have a very similar midrange but don't suffer from panel limitations.I have not heard them - but I agree that this design will definitely sound closer to MrTennis's prized Quad's than most conventional box spe... | |
| Flat Anechoic Measured Frequency Response Speakers What do you think of the Moulton Labs 8 CD's and course? Do you think it is worth it for non audio professionals (8 CD's = $220 )....above all was it fun, a revelation? | |
| Best recordings to demonstrate soundstage? If you want live music with great Soundstage try Harry James & his Big Band - Sheffield Labs...if Harry is not there in front of you and in your room then something is not quite right with the setup.George Bensen - Weekend in LA - On Broadway ... | |
| Flat Anechoic Measured Frequency Response Speakers This is generally accepted to be simply good loudspeaker engineering. Absolutely agree. Dr Toole's experiments helped demonstrate this to the industry..although I believe many designers knew this to be important. | |
| PRE_AMP for ATC- actives?? Bgordon,That must be 10 Kilo ohm input impedance which is pretty much standard. | |
| Please recommend really nice surround speakers I agree with Kennyt. So many people complain about HT sound quality but at the same time use a "dogs breakfast" of gear. | |
| Flat Anechoic Measured Frequency Response Speakers Not necessarily flat, but smooth. Agreed - exactly! Very few people are aware of this. When I talk about tone control adjustments audiophiles cringe ....but they should not. It is no crime to tweak in this way. In fact a ruler flat on axis respon... | |
| Wilson Maxx2 or Aerial 20T I second Jaybo ....stick with the 20T's...only if you want something louder and more powerful dynamically would I consider this switch... | |
| Flat Anechoic Measured Frequency Response Speakers The ATC has a very flat response. Do you find that flat responses sometimes limit the 3rd dimension to the soundstage? In other words, do you find it is more like a two dimensional picture than a three dimensional picture depth-wise? No not at al... | |
| Best recordings to demonstrate soundstage? Tom Petty anything is very good.Bob Dylan Oh MercyRoger Waters Amused to DeathThere are so many it is almost impossible to make a shortlist....there is no problem with box speakers per se as regards soundstage. | |
| Heavy Center Channel Wall Mount I agree with Pdn.I have used Omnimount with great success...there are versions with lag bolts that can screw into wooden studs...this can easily hold your center channel. Omnimount design stuff for speakers weighing up to several 100's of pounds... | |
| RACMANINOFF PIANO CONCERTO 2 Anyway - don't believe me - just look at the reviews - only one person complained about the orchestra being too loud on this recording - although he still says "great recording". This is no MP3 even if the piano isn't "close-miked" - which is not ... |
