| Review: Dunlavy Audio Labs SC-IVa The wonders of brass strkes again.Superior sonic material plus its non-ferrous so it does not disturb the flow of those precious electrons bouncing from place to place. Tom | |
| Most Impact on Sound Stage/Imaging? C.. if you seal the inside of a wooden cabinet with Cascade V-Bloc that is a water based product designed to be absorbed into the wood pores and drys like concrete. Also use non ferrous fasteners for all drivers and crossovers,replace all resistor... | |
| Two Subs Vs. One The bass cabinet itself radiates energy and harmonics above its determined crossover point. This is one reason you can audibly determine the location of your sub and one big reason it effects the blend into the mains as well as the tone quality an... | |
| Review: Dunlavy Audio Labs SC-IVa Did you replace all the steel mounting screws that hold the crossover in place? How about those around the tweeter dome and its plate mounting screws securing it to the cabinet with non-ferrous brass? Tom | |
| brass outlet covers...anyone try them? Sound good Just another application of vibrational behavior/acoustics, musical instruments or electronic chassis's.Another benefit maybe a gain in efficiency. Tom | |
| brass outlet covers...anyone try them? Sound good Brass as an RF shield. New constuction electrical boxes with proper mechanical grounding for resonance control. AC mains box with proper mechanical grounding/direct coupling for resonace control. Rememeber this is your first chance for control as ... | |
| Review: Dunlavy Audio Labs SC-IVa Jade when I replaced components in my SC4's the resistors of all things made for the greatest apparent differences.. Except coating the inside of the enclosure with Cascade VBloc which seals the wood pores like concrete.Keep at it and let us know ... | |
| Corner treatment -- PZCs a sure thing? The Green Corner tunes were designed to absorb or to reflect ..they are easily reversible to achieve either benefit. The reflective surface out seemed to fill in phase disparities caused by the ceiling walls junction making for a fuller stage with... | |
| Wood blocks underneath components?? snake oil? Hello Newbee..Nice to see you here all these years..The following statement is intended to mean no harm only to invoke thought not verbal pain..There is no such thing as isolation because everything is always in movement. Tom | |

| IMAGE PROBLEMS VOCALS OFF CENTER Phase coherence or lack there of in just one channel could skew the image balance off to one side. This effect can be caused by either your electronics or an acoustic inbalance in your listening room {a variance in pressure}. Tom | |
| DK Design Review I heard the 10's a few months back with the Statement integrated, Exemplar 5910 on a Sistrum Sp1. Music I had played at home and elsewhere...music detail and cues I had never experienced before. Very cool..Tom | |
| DK Design Review Well I suppose the new owner wants the public to visit in person a dealer whose intention is to demo a properly set up and performing audio system. No more mail order brides,no more sleasze. A business profile that is supportive of all involved, i... | |
| Which speaker to replace Dunlavy SC-V? I agree with Sean..In my experience with SC4's the resistor change I made and the coating of the enclosure walls with V-Bloc from Cascade Engineering made the most difference..The use of non ferrous mounting material and screws in and around the c... | |
| DK Design VS.1 Reference mkII - Optimization The removal of ferrous materials in and around circuit boards, crossovers and speakers will result in lower distortion and a more musical presentation. Providing vibration direction,focus and relief in my experience results in a much more natural,... |
