| Room Acoustics Corner Problems Fiberglass works well in large areas that are very hot and that have long and multiple time lines. Taming such areas with fiberglass as well as diffusers can greatly enhance the intelligibility of the spoken word. However for most listening or the... | |
| Two subwoofers or One? I have always used two subs. Two subs actually augment the size and shape of the soundstage adding much to the width and vertical height. Of the many pairs of subs I have used I have placed them any where from 1.5 inches in front of or at the same... | |
| Room Acoustics Corner Problems Angles in the corners can be devised so as to redirect energy back to the listening position..You can also do this for all the ceiling wall junctions as well as the two remaining corners.Nothing wrong with a corner as long as it is not a 90 and pl... | |
| Fuses - Why do same size fuses sound different? Krell man there are many Myopian Flat Earther's who have somehow recently ASSaulted Audiogon with continual negativity..They have added nothing constructive. They have only one point of view and that is negative. These people are instantly closed ... | |
| Cheap tweaks...What would YOU reccomend? Place your more sensitive components in a lower postion in your audio rack. Units that are particularly reactive to changes in inertia such as a cd player or transport will become more focused have greater detail and deeper bass.The lower center o... | |
| upgrading speaker crossovers & tuning Peter Snell made his own multi-caps that were composed of many small value electrolytic caps. He did this so he could add more or less value to flatten the curve. He also weighted the woofer so as to lower the resonance and to better balance the w... | |

| Krell SACD Standard problem No and that too will change. Tom | |
| H.P.Caravelles owners, are you still Satisfied. Blcube and Ozzy I would love to audition a pair of these wooden stands in comparison to the Caravelle stands. I have listened to the Caravelles on four different sets of stands.Tom | |
| Krell SACD Standard problem Yes and it also sounds better...I know this first hand and with both ears.Tom | |
| Review: Dunlavy Audio Labs SC-IVa Jd,Yes I have a list of component values for my SC4's and not 4a's..You have the Focal woofers..So the values I have are probably different.It was for me very easy to unscrew and to slide the crossover out of the back of the speaker.The values wer... | |
| H.P.Caravelles owners, are you still Satisfied. I am a dealer for Starsound products. Speaker stands are critical to the mass...and the energy that this speaker is designed to transfer out from itself. The dedicated Sistrum stands allow for vertical adjustment. I found that raising the front of... | |
| How U determine first and second reflection points David I suppose you could follow as so many others do the same old pitch of foam and fiberglass that so many companys build..These products often do as much harm as they do good..they reduce energy in the room and often suck out the life..Tom | |
| How U determine first and second reflection points The ceiling wall junctions all around the room should be treated as reflection areas. To me these are the critical areas to treat not to kill but to redirect the pressure back at the listening position. You want the energy that usually flows along... | |
| DK Design Group X-Dream - wow I heard the model 2's at Larry's several times over a 5 month period. Even the first prototype pair I heard looked great and sounded great. Very alive and dynamic, excellent bass and tonal balance top to bottom..I heard these speakers with 3 diffe... |
