| Silly question, but I’ll ask it anyway. This is true about dieseling and in fact if you put a drop of oil on the back of a high performance air gun pellet, the heat generated by the rapidly compressed air in the chamber will ignite the spot of oil and increase the pressure of the shot..... | |
| Silly question, but I’ll ask it anyway. Most domestic vehicles use spark plug wires with a fiber glass core covered in latex graphite, which provides between 10,000 and 12,000 ohms of resistance per foot of wire. But this varies with wire type Do you really want to put all of that ... | |
| My system is where I want it be and it sounds awesome... Nope! Not until you replace that Oppo with a 95, 105, or 205. | |
| Considering getting a CD player (again). Used? New? Criteria? Well if anyone has a complete, properly working Oppo 95 for ~$300 + shipping, I'll take it! | |
| What do you say to your audiophile friends who say you just listen to your equipment more I tell people that I not only listen to the music, I listen to the "sound of the music" and the equipment facilitates this. | |
| Moving up from an Oppo 205 If/when you get his 205, I'ld be interested in your 95. Thanks. | |
| Types of speakers to create nightclub style sound? You are welcome to come hear my Super Big Red Altecs. While you may never come across a pair of Super Big Reds, it will give you an idea of what a Altec 604 can do with an added woofer for the bass. These are tri-amped using a Marantz 1180DC and t... | |

| A Question on Speaker Driver Efficiency I look at PV, Eminence, and others..., and yes, for the same models, the higer impedience version typically has the higher Bl.So, contrary to what some would say, I guess that JBL is not the only one who does this and the OP is advised to check th... | |
| A Question on Speaker Driver Efficiency The L19 made it’s debut in the 1979 catalog. Seeing as how I’ve been into JBLs since the 60’s, it sounds like you are the newcomer.I've even developed and make products for use with classic JBLs.https://youtu.be/pbbS0QYK2_o http://www.audioheritag... | |
| A Question on Speaker Driver Efficiency "Speaker sensitivity is measured in decibels per 1 watt per 1 meter, but is usually referred to as just decibels [source: JBL]." For an 8 ohm load, this equates to 2.83 volts. But for a 4 ohm load it’s 2.00 volts and for a 16 ohm load its 4.00 vol... | |
| A Question on Speaker Driver Efficiency I think you missed the point.He uses two 4 ohm speakers to produce 8 ohms or two 16 ohm speakers to produce 8 ohms. Nothing else matters!If the amp put out 100 watts at 8 ohms, it does so into either of the two noted loads..., because either load... | |
| A Question on Speaker Driver Efficiency If the amp puts out x watts at 8 ohms, and you split it between two speakers totalling 8 ohms, each speaker sees the half the power and puts out the same dB level. When you add them together, the net result is the same.That said, I would think th... | |
