How do I know what my system's Yeah Etbaby has a good point.....either room treatment or a DEQ2496 might do much more than a new amp | |
Matching the center channel to the fronts If your seating position is mainly for yourself and rarely a crowd...then by positioning your seat directly in front you can do without a center channel...just get bigger fronts and phantom the center to both fronts and keep fronts relatively clos... | |
Have you seen the VR9SE Review? Jtinn,Thanks for pointing out this article. Mike did a fantastic job of describing a wonderful journey to achieveing what must be absolutely amazing sound. I am in awe.Two-thirds of the way through the article, however, I was troubled that all the... | |
Choosing the right Bryston amp Put it this way....at high levels and with significant bass material the 3B will clip before getting the most out of your speakers. Clipping is the main cause of speaker failure: bass woofer sucks up too much of the amps power and then (most often... | |
Choosing the right Bryston amp IMHO go for more power than you think you will ever need - the bigger amp. On some tracks you will be glad of the extra head room. | |
I hope break in is true johns33031,I agree. I simply can't see a good reason to design something with significant drift in response over time ( which is what a break in period suggests ). Drift over time is something designers should really be trying to avoid - just as t... | |
Balanced/Unbalanced --- Whats the difference? Many threads on this - check the archives. Unless you have long runs or a hiss/hum problem, RCA is fine. | |
How to connect bi-wire speakers Rlwainwright,Your understanding matches mine. IMHO up to 2 Msec of delay between drivers is what most pros believe is below audibility... so most speakers are designed with this in mind. Generally a smooth phase response is desired rather than pur... | |
Music out there with good bass The Uruk-Hai LOTR The Two Towers (in general lots of bass on LOTR sound track) | |
Need an audio switch box - 2 sources/1 pr speakers Holly,Switches are no problem. Ratshack has plenty. For $300 I probably would have gone for an airport express and wireless card for the PC and a passive analog summing box (RCA connection box with resistor network to couple analog outputs)...for ... | |
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... |
