Revel Salon 2’s (used) or new Magico A-3 (new) ?? @sciencecop I would highly recommend that in the future, you start such comments with "In My Opinion".... Mine agrees with audiotroy, yes they are dealers and I’ve called them out in the past myself, but I believe there has been a real effort in t... | |
Is the 2.5 way speaker the ideal home speaker? @microlabIf you properly account for the resistance of a coil and use quality parts, I’ve not seen a problem with crossing at 350 hz. A simple cap will typically run between 50 and 150 mic’s. An inductor can certainly add phasing problems... using... | |
Y No YG ? Erik, You consistently come up with great conversational ideas. YG speakers are great quality.... But they are very proud of them and charge according to their pride level. Dollar for dollar there always seems something that performs on par o... | |
Is the 2.5 way speaker the ideal home speaker? Most of the human voice in singing operates from 80 for very low bass male voice to around 1500 which is above natural female vocals to maybe someone trying to hit an extreme note to impress. Everything that Erik has quoted throughout this thread ... | |
Who makes the best "Coaxial" Tweeter/Midrange design? You know, its been 5 + years since I've seen a pair, but I've modified a couple of different pair of cheap speakers from Best Buy... It was an Insignia NS-B2111. They needed parts improvements, impedance correction and some diffraction control, ... | |
Who makes the best "Coaxial" Tweeter/Midrange design? Andrew Jones, was with Kef, He did the Elac and I believe Pioneer owns TAD, but Andrew does it all there. | |
Who makes the best "Coaxial" Tweeter/Midrange design? Pretty much the same guy, but I'd go with T.A.D | |
Amp and preamp for dq10s The couple of 200 watt CJ SS models sound very good on DQ10's. | |
A Question on Speaker Driver Efficiency This was posted on another thread today. I don't think that he is 100% wrong, but the problem of his delivery does not seem to sink in. Its everyone else. @cj165 ... with my pea brain, I had to look up fiefdom syndrome. Thanks for the education ... | |
A Question on Speaker Driver Efficiency @cj165 I'm sorry, I would call you by name, but I haven't seen it posted. I came very close to sending this in a private message, but much has been addressed in this thread as well as a couple of others. 1st... You are extremely knowledgeable and... | |
A Question on Speaker Driver Efficiency This bit is problematic. The drivers are going to sound the same whether in parallel or in series. What **won’t** sound the same is the amplifier, which reacts very differently to impedance depending on the amp.Hi Ralph, I believe that I did elude... | |
Wilson Speakers & Reviewers Well, I have only sat in front of Wilson a few times and the last time was probably 2 or 3 years ago, but I have watched model introductions and have looked them over... It is fair to say that Wilson is Always a "Safe Choice"... Might not be the l... | |
A Question on Speaker Driver Efficiency Wow, I am soooo glad that I didn't spot this thread before now..... giving way to all the theory and mathematics, @williewonka If all things are equal, meaning a 4 ohm 8 ohm and 16 ohm driver would all sound equivalent in a given cabinet, Parall... | |
Audio valuations @elf1 I've run into similar experience... A few things. I suspect the economy has affected even many of the mighty audiophiles. Getting someone to pay thousands rather than hundreds is tough. I have a pre for sale now. For what it is, It is offe... | |
Preamp under $2,000 used This is a shameless plug, but I have one for sale here on Agon which is a perfect match... T+A Elektroakustik .... Read about them on Agon. Extremely nice gear. |
