Phase Coherence or Time Alignment: Which More Imp? Joe about a year ago or so ..well I guess I got into a verbal pissing match with a speaker designer here on the Gon who told me that series crossovers didnt work..Well maybe he couldnt make them work but Fried made them work and the fellows with S... | |
Phase Coherence or Time Alignment: Which More Imp? No, not the same.. | |
Phase Coherence or Time Alignment: Which More Imp? Larry there is a fellow down in Lexington that was designing speakers with first order series crossovers back in 1998 and his last name wasn't Thiel...Tom | |
Phase Coherence or Time Alignment: Which More Imp? Larry look at the patent disclosure on the government site..Patent #6381334 owned by a Mr.Alexander from there in Utah..Crossover appears to me to be a Series type.First patent uses only inductors and resistors, no caps. Second patent by the same ... | |
Phase Coherence or Time Alignment: Which More Imp? Trelja am I correct in saying that a true series crossover has to to pass all the information sent to it by the amplifier, unlike most every other crossover design? Tom | |

Dunlavy SC-IVa Set up help Sean is correct is his thoughts on bass room inneraction with certain Dunlavy speakers and various ceiling heights. I have owned Sc4's for many years and have sold numerous pairs in the past. Bass cancelation can be minimized by the use of an angl... | |

How do you deal with vibration? Pbb vibration control in a component will mean that it will draw less current than one with improperly implemented vibration control or none at all. It all starts with self induced losses within the component, even at idle.This is what I believe a... | |
How do you deal with vibration? Reduction of vibrational influences within a component should make the component operate with greater efficiency. With this in mind.. hooking up a component to a Variac and adjusting the operating voltage and then recording the current draw with a... | |
