| Speaker stand spikes ~2” long? Audiopoints by Starsound have 2 inch Audiopoints you may need a metric thread..take 1 you have to a hardware store and ck the thread count and pitch. Tom | |
| Review: Intuitive Design/Pitcher Sound Labs Summit PSL 624 Speaker Some designers apply many elements of damping material as did Dale..the grilles and their attachment a case in point. Tom | |
| Thiel Owners The QSC I heard a while back was 2000 watts per chn...and it wasnt class D it was class H. Class H from the late 70s and early 80s was somehing terrible we had from a vendor maybe Hitachi and then even before that Soundcraftmen..The QSC was on Le... | |
| Thiel Owners Often pro audio gear is looked down upon..QSC has made some fine sounding amps..I suppose they could be improved upon with the addition of a few "audiophile parts"..Tom | |
| There's a lot more bass in a 6.5" driver than most of you think The Purifi drivers with their unique surround will reduce a polarity of shear so it does not return back down the cone and become a part of the next impulse. Tom | |
| There's a lot more bass in a 6.5" driver than most of you think Right out of the box and into the cabinet these Purfi drivers are clearly better than my very nice Seas..sound as if I installed a highly articulate 10..As I type it opens up.. fun to hear and watch.. Dave G installed his today in his Merlins and ... | |
| Thiel Owners You can also read up and use the Bud Purvine EnABL method for which he was granted U.S. patent # 5,304,746..filed 1991. The Purvine patent originally described a method to reduce or eliminate standing waves now better described as transverse, or s... | |
| Thiel Owners Always fascinated with vibrations we can sense and hear but have no method yet to test for or measure. Working on an applique to surfaces to reduce shear wave interference on most any surface. My favorites being speakers and cabinets and musical i... | |
| There's a lot more bass in a 6.5" driver than most of you think Considering the Via Wave Srt7 ribbon tweeter also a drop in replacement in my cabinet in combo with the Purifi. Crossover should be straightforward and simplistic. Tom | |
| There's a lot more bass in a 6.5" driver than most of you think Myself and 2 other Audiogon members have received our Purifi PTT6.5 WO4 drivers this week. Longtime coming with all the Covid delay. They look amazing ..fit and finish and unique features can hardly wait to drop them in. and they will for both ... | |
| Thiel Owners Well you would have 2 conversions when really only none is required..And you would have many more component parts including the probable use of a couple of noisey switching power supplys. Other than that it would work. I have run digital eq and xo... | |
| Thiel Owners vair68robert..Just saw the exposed crossover you posted. The single easiest most dramatic improvement would be for you to replace all the resistors shown with either non inductive wire wounds from Mills or Mundorf. I would replace the resistors fi... | |
| Thiel Owners Get it all out here..When I did a remodel of my power amps I took the main board Nichicons off and chassis mounted 4 of the Clarity Cap TC's these are hard mounted to the metal bottom with Audiopoints. You could do the same in a speaker when repl... | |
| Thiel Owners Question can you run a cap and resistor in series to equate the the esr of the original ? The best sounding resistors are the Vishay nude metal films. When I rebuilt my long gone Dunlavys years back..I had to build resistor bridges with several o... | |
| Do these woofers look right on these Dunlavys IVA's? You have IV's which came originally with Morel woofers and then there was a running change to the Vifa drivers. The IVa was an update that required a model change because of the Scanspeak drivers and the required crossover changes. The first 2 woo... |
