| Speaker Positioning Let us know the results of your experiments. G'luck | |
| Can I repair speaker foam? It depends on the quality of the speaker - check with polk. I went through my manufacturer and have had drivers re-coned a couple of times (simple procedure common in high end gear - studios, for example, damage speakers regularly, transport, drop... | |
| Speaker Positioning Try the mirage speakers owners forum http://www.miragespeakers.com/v2/forum.phpI would keep bipolars away from walls and especially the rear wall....so as to delay the reflected energy. It seems the brain can handle secondary reflections as long a... | |
| When showing your system to others, what do you do Ferrari,Try this search on google "Bob Woods Telarc Loudspeakers". Interesting reading. This is probably not the same system you heard back in 1986. Although judging by the comments this system appears to be an improvement on what you heard (hard ... | |
| Review: Behringer DEQ2496 Equalizer Anyone with a speaker system that has significant energy below 60 Hz could probably benefit from a PEQ. (it will be the very rare exceptional setup that does not have ultra-LF bumps). This Behringer DEQ2496, when properly implemented, seems like o... | |
| When showing your system to others, what do you do Ferrari,I expect studios have very different electronic gear needs from home audio playback systems but what about the speakers?Can you describe any of the speakers that the creme d'la creme use in these awesome systems you have heard?

| Tubeguys:How much "tube sound" from tube players? Unless the tube is partly clipping then you really won't get the nice tube sound effect...I would stick with a tube amp if you want to get the most from tubes. | |
| what makes a tube sound the way it does? Tubes are used a lot in recording studios for miking and also for mastering....that pleasing tube sound can improve a "thin" sounding mix...it can also act as a limiter to reduce dynamic range on a studio mix in a very elegant way. Studio miking w... | |
| what makes a tube sound the way it does? Tubes overload easily. Tubes sound nice in overload. They act like a compressor. They add lots of the right kinds of harmonic distortion during overload and this can make a pleasing sound. It can even make the music more audible to our ears/brain ... | |
| Am I a burning out audiophile???? Could be the post honeymoon blues? Those new anticipated expensive Totems or something else in your life, much deeper... The move to the upgraded system was initiated by my desire to listen to more music with my wife. Today, (and last night, and t... | |
| what is good music? Henryk,Aha now we are getting somehwere.But what is the first place? Is it the chicken or the egg? | |
| Am I a burning out audiophile???? Let me hazard a guess....Perhaps you are facing diminishing returns...a good $1000 speaker (Arros) can do a pretty good job when well placed in an appropriate small sized room with unchallenging material like female vocal and acoustic guitar. Unde... | |
| My digital front end outdoes my analog..... DNA (the Double Helix) is inherently of digital-like construction. It may not use ones and zeros but it has a very limited set of exact states that are strung out in an almost endless string (rather like bits on a CD). DNA is an extremely robust w... | |
| Many reviewers will lead you down the wrong path. Reviewers are unfortunately all biased. Some depend on advertizing revenues for the audio magazine they are affiliated with or freelancing for. Or they already own the equipment and are predisposed to like what they have shelled out $$$ for (proud... | |
| Speaker recomendations please I would hazard that Energy Veritas 2.3 or 2.4 might do the job well...definately weight at the bottom end on those. (Second hand of course...good value IMHO) G'luck! |
