Isolation question. Monitor on Subwoofer
I think they were hired to entertain the troops at a booth at the Cedia AV show and clubs to the northeast of downtown Indianapolis just last weekend..Thats what I saw and I think I remember..They shared the same chair and were friendly with each ... 
Isolation question. Monitor on Subwoofer
Mids will not be smeared because the leading edge transients will be be damped into oblivion.. unlike the real thing..Whats remains will be dark and without life..Other than that it will be okay..Tom

Is not that what Slim Pickens yelled as he rode the A-bomb down from the sky to its final destination in the pro humanity movie Dr.Strangelove..Tom 
Isolation question. Monitor on Subwoofer
If you use Audiopoints, and I feel you should, then do not combine coupling with so called isolation..to do so would be the worst of combinations..The Audiopoints are designed to be directional..the point has a bandpass of 2hz to several meg..So y... 
what if you put too much lead shot in your speaker
If you use the correct design geometry and material choices then speaker vibration can be channeled away and not be retaimed in the cabinet..like when using lead shot..I think Larry worked with Albert at one time..Tom 
what if you put too much lead shot in your speaker
Its all the same ...Compensation for design problems.. It still kills the music..There are better remidies.. if indeed they are needed..Ask Lrsky he use to work with the compensation chamber guy..he now knows the way out of the dead zone. Tom

Yea and it kills the music. Ask Lrsky he has had much of a turnaround when it comes to dampening/lead shot..Tom 
Good, Neutral, Reasonably Priced Cables?
I agree. I had to say it and write it before I forgot it. Everything attached to the output terminals of the amplifier is reactive... Tom

Good, Neutral, Reasonably Priced Cables?
Sean the speakers I currently use have series wired crossovers. Every signal feed this type of design would have to be sent to the drivers unlike a parallel design which I think dumps unused signal to ground.Unused signal would then be feed back t... 
Good, Neutral, Reasonably Priced Cables?
Sean with most speakers out there having their crossovers dangling on the positive leg of the amplifier and nothing on the negative side of the amp would you not think this imbalance is more of an issue than the cable impedance seen by the same am... 
Good, Neutral, Reasonably Priced Cables?
I just want it all to make me happy, as well as the few friends I have who stop by to listen with me. Lightening Rods under musical instruments make it all stand up.Tom 
Best Tweak???
Cd Romulus..Redirection of sound pressure away from room boundaries towards the listener using specific shapes and dimensions. Sistrum, not a tweak a requirement. Removal of all dampening material from system and walls.Me the carpet and furniture ... 
Current Trends In Home Audio
I am in the home theater business..What most people want is lotsa boom sizzle and glitz...and ease of use. One of the posters here did a 10.2 system and with Levinson, Revel, Harmonic Precision, Sistrum and Sonoran wire all of the same length. Roo... 
Alternatives to the Thiel Outriggers?
