| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused If you are going to rely on the room the way it is, get a speaker with a wave guide for the dispersion is controlled. The results will be superior. The Aida is recommended to be at least 6 feet from the front and side walls to fully use their "dep... | |
| Opinion: Modern country is the worst musical genre of all time @coltrane1 we fell off the country music train pages ago. I don’t think anyone questions that Jazz was created by black musicians do they? I wouldn’t feel bad about it not being heralded. That is probably true of most instrumental only music today... | |
| Peachtree GaN 1 Beta @ricevs have you delivered the modified unit back to the customer? You keep describing the GAN1 as Class D analog switching. I do not think that is correct. Class D and PWM are not the same. | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused Here we have a "blind" comparison between an M2 system and the Revel Salon2. Guess which one wins, handily: The conclusion: http://www.avsforum.com/forum/89-speakers/2907816-speaker-shootout-two-most-accurate-well-reviewed-speakers-ever-made-12.... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused That is a marketing video from an online retailer. No complete in their coverage nor free from bias. They have a broad line, but these appear to be some of the only active speakers that they carry. | |
| Opinion: Modern country is the worst musical genre of all time These attacks on specific genres of music just come across as arrogant cries for attention. Why else would you go out of your way on a site, purporting to be about something related to the love of music, and tell everyone else what you hate in hop... | |
| Opinion: Modern country is the worst musical genre of all time As a musician, I find this statement, "How many here can argue the complexities of “jazz.” Frankly, unless you’re a musician educated in jazz, who can truly play, it’s beyond your comprehension. So in essence, there’s no argument to be had." fun... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @donavabdear , It would probably help if you provided some more information: What brands does the dealer you must buy from carry. No point us suggesting stuff if not on their franchised list. Are you planning to do anything with your room in ... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused The most important aspect of an active speaker @kota1 is good acoustical design. You can do some cool things with DSP but there is only so much that can be fixed. The Bryson does not illustrate the aspects of good acoustic design for a modern spea... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused Do they call it the Model T because the acoustic design is from the last century? Double stacked tweeters and mids but bizarrely stacked with large spread between the lower mid and upper tweeter. Even on a 3 way in 2023 really no excuse for not us... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused My apologies @o_holter, that you have been pulled into this childish exchange. | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @o_holter , You will notice that unless I am personally attacked, my comments apply to content. The 4329P (which you cannot buy yet), is based on the 708P, which I am very familiar with. There may be tweaks in the drivers, but the articles imply ... | |

| Speaker Break-in The testing the vendor would do prior to shipping which likely includes a burn in test, i.e. play loud for a few hours to ensure no failures will do almost all break in. At moderate volume, there will be measurable changes for a few hours more but... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused Notice in the press release, that the press release is from the Harman Luxury Audio group (4329P). It will be interested to see if any measurements come out. It is based on the 708P which is a good studio monitor if you don't push it too hard. Pus... |
