| Roon Support, or lack thereof I was hoping this was a software issue and thought I would deal directly with the device experts to try to troubleshoot the problem. After It was apparent that it was a hardware problem I finally contacted him since the folks at Roon appeared to b... | |
| Roon Support, or lack thereof Just received it back. It works. I didn’t have the original packaging but did a nice job with foam, bubble wrap, etc. They returned it in my same packaging, which I found “cheap”. I suppose they thought I would just throw their packaging away ag... | |
| Roon Support, or lack thereof Through a dealer. Why do you ask? | |
| First impressions of the Isoacoustic Gaia 1’s Have the 2 series under my W-B Vectors and the 1 series under my DBA. Huge improvement with the 2, notable with the 1. Things just kind of locked in. I would have liked to try the Townsend but was concerned that they would be difficult to move i... | |
| Vandersteen Speakers.. Are All Other Speaker Makers Doing It Wrong ? Wilson Benesch also do a great job of attending to “distortion, compression, cabinet resonances and diffraction…” in addition to time and phase coherence. They manufacture in-house virtually all of their speaker components so there is virtually ... | |
| Speaker relative efficiency/sensitivity when using a high pass filter @nymarty I am using a Devialet 400. It has high and low pass filters along with time delay. I have a Dayton Audio SA1000 as my subwoofer amp with second order and fourth order high and low pass filters, respectively, at 80Hz but I am not currentl... | |
| Speaker relative efficiency/sensitivity when using a high pass filter I am thinking tubes as well but did not want to go down that path and incur/incite the commentary about there being plenty of high output tube amplifiers. Thanks for broaching it. I also want to entertain lower power AB SS amps. I have a fondness... | |
| Speaker relative efficiency/sensitivity when using a high pass filter Understood, hence my calling it "relative efficiency". I appreciate that your and Erik's replies are semantically more appropriate. So it appears there is a decrement in the current/voltage required to drive a speaker to only 80Hz instead of 35 ... | |
| New cartridge for Eminent Technology ET2 It is adaptable with different wands for different cartridge specs. I would use the magnesium version. | |
| Speaker relative efficiency/sensitivity when using a high pass filter 200 W “peak unclipped program” | |
| Speaker relative efficiency/sensitivity when using a high pass filter Makes sense. I’m sure the numbers won’t be exact but it means I may be able to go from my 400 W amplifier down to a 100 W amplifier. The speaker manufacturer recommends 200. | |
| Speaker relative efficiency/sensitivity when using a high pass filter I am using a second order high pass filter at 80 Hz yielding12dB down at 40Hz. 12dB is associated with a 16-fold power difference. This is my rationale for the inquiry. | |
| New cartridge for Eminent Technology ET2 Appreciate advice. My dealer is going to do that but I thought I would also seek input using this knowledge base. | |
| 2022 is almost here. Why are you here? Condition of probation | |
| Isoacoustics' Gaia eliminated a 120Hz mode The manufacture recommends going bigger as well. This supports the notion that there is a range of effectiveness and that minor adjustments may yield a questionable return. Perhaps someone can tune it but I have neither the patience nor the butt t... |
