| panel speaker purchase i will be able to get a 45 percent reviewer's accomodation discount if buying the analysis audio speaker but it is an expensive purchase How would you feel about writing a review in this case?Upon reading this perhaps another manufacturer may up ... | |
| Recommend a forward speaker Duke,Correct - I didn't quote you - my mistake. My comment was more related to how you consider a narrow dispersion is more of a forward presentation than a wide dispersion...I beg to disagree on that one that is all. However, as Newbee suggests .... | |
| Floor Standing or In Wall speakers I have heard many such [in wall] systems and they can be quite fine but they are rarely made from consumer stuff.Agreed. You may not prefer them but they can sound good too. To me the absence of edge diffraction and rear quarter wave cancellation... | |
| James Randi vs. Anjou Pear - once and for all There is no blind test necessary. Loud discordant distortion is easy to verify. That is because the ones I have tried followed a pattern. I suspect that Muralman's approach dominates the conventional way of hooking up ;-) | |
| Stereophile Article - Holt telling it like it is. think that the sound quality that a person with an ordinary income can buy today is miles ahead of what that person could buy 25 years ago and is getting better all the time. I agree.JGH beef seems to be with a large portion of the high end which... | |
| Recommend a forward speaker The beaming of line source and panels 'projects' the sound at the listener, and limits the higher frequency content of the room's reverberant field that exaggerates the localization of the source, thus making a forward presentation My guess is t... | |
| Floor Standing or In Wall speakers For HT, mebbe, but I have yet to hear any in-walls that can compete with free-standing speakers for music. Yes but like most audiophiles mebbe you have not heard or are aware of this or this or this...all in walls and there are so many more (and ... | |
| What beats the Evolution Acoustics MM3 ?? Does anyone know who made the drivers for MM3? Judging by the looks...(a guess)Aurum Cantum G3 TweetAccuton midsATC 15" Woofers | |
| Recommend a forward speaker Try a professional quality EQ unit and liberally experiment with relatively small boosts in the midrange frequencies and/or cuts in the upper midrange. This is a good idea, however, one of the ways that designers achieve a "BBC dip" and yet still... | |
| Recommend a forward speaker ATCs: the active or passive versions? I would go older passive 20's second hand or 35's (rare) for a modest investment to see if you like the more forward presentation. My concern would be that with the 20's you will want or expect more deep bass... | |
| Recommend a forward speaker I agree with Peterb. Actually a forward presentation will tend to be 'brighter' in the upper mid range. It can sound harsh on some recordings but that is what real music sounds like. If you stand ten feet in front of a trumpet player at a live eve... | |
| Considering going Vinyl--Please talk me out of it If you don't already have a huge collection of Vinyl music that you desperately want to hear again (all that older nostalgic stuff in the attic or basement) then you need to ask yourself why all of sudden do you now show interest?This is not somet... | |
| jitter reduction? I don't doubt that a ribbon would likely make jitter distortion all the more audible. I am just surprised that a ribbon would be regarded as a reference source for listening for jitter distortion. Dome tweeters in general have much lower distortio... | |
| A/D input levels with 24-bit - need to max out? What is your opinion about what happens with I dither down to 16? In theory this will increase the noise floor but I expect your data will already have such a high noise floor due to the analog source (as I eplained above there us no way it explo... | |
| Digital Playback Comparison BTW - that you had issues with airport express is not surprising if you think about it ... a tiny little box with SMPS power supply sandwiched close to the rest of the circuitry. However it is the analog that stereophile took exception to and not ... |
