| Seeking more 3d imaging, deeper/wider soundstage I will continue like energy always in search of ground. Tom | |
| Seeking more 3d imaging, deeper/wider soundstage I wish there was an individual block from view setting that I could implement on Audiogon that would save me from anything Bo Bo posts. Like hitting the mute button when the neo-cons open their mouths. Tom | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? NormIn my first post about this subject the first paragraph referred to the DQ10's which were a break thru in in time aligned and phase aligned speakers. When Jon used separate baffles he may have only by chance hit upon a way to reduce unwanted v... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Norm The Nextel paint finish and the flocking material on the entire front speaker baffle are control materials. Both materials seal a bad sounding mdf cabinet from venting its form of bad sound into a listening room. These 2 materials sonically m... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? NormI think Jon Dahlquist was a mechanical engineer and may have been aware of the swamp of vibrations you refer to. The fact that part of his crossover though mounted on the top of the cabinet was a step ahead by not being hammered inside of the ... | |
| Stillpoints and reference-level speakers There is a big difference between a large high mass highly reactive speaker cabinet in comparison to an amplifier, power conditioner or any electronic component. In many situations the 1.5" AP will sound better than the two inch version however th... | |
| Stillpoints and reference-level speakers Color reference was in the context of material makeup selection which in this case changes the color and the sound. Tom | |
| Stillpoints and reference-level speakers Change the color change the sound. Change the material and change the impedance. Change the color and change the propagation of sound thru the material. Change the color no.Tom. Star Sound Technologies. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil JohnGranted you have more vibration in the speaker box than out. But your acoustic space is also a speaker box of sorts. A passive device in line has signal running thru it will also corrupt the signal with its own material resonance. Devices that... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil I agree. One great cap would be better than a poor cap and a better bypass cap. You can also mechanically direct couple flat caps like the Duelund some Jupiter's and the Clarity Cap Dtac series. This method will move resonant energy off the cap an... | |
| Pass Labs Amp X350.5 or X350.8 anyone compare? Boo whoo would care to stand next to you and listen to your sales pitch. Your demon meaner would make clients run to the CDC in Atlanta asking for a potential cure to your particlar contagion. Tom | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Vicente,I would look at the ESA caps from Clarity Cap. http://www.claritycap.co.uk/products/esa.phpI see these as a great value and are used by several high perception electronic manufacturers. I am sure you are going outboard with the crossover a... | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil In the past I used 8 and 10 gauge inductors for bass and foils for upper mids and highs. My self and friend thought the round wire sounded best on the low end and the flat for the highs. We tried this on SC4's. The inductors were North Creek and S... | |
| Stillpoints and reference-level speakers I have a table that can be used. The alloy I was seeing and hearing in "surround sound" had an additive that was a hardener to increase the wear characteristics. Great if you needed brakes for your race car but this one additive made for some craz... | |
