| ACTUAL MUSICAL SOUND VS. MEASUREMENTS ...If you know what to measure and have the means to measure it. How does one measure imaging? | |
| The $27,900 disappointment? Wilson Audio Watt Puppy 8 issues. I don’t think he know what he’s talking about. The cabinets are no longer made of Corian though that’s what he said. He make a huge deal about the tweeter and midrange sharing a common cable out of the crossover so that the tweeter has to go thr... | |
| Trends in value of vintage / used audio equipment? Mac is now owned by Bose. Will it affect value knowing the Bose stigma? | |
| Stereophile review of the new Wilson Watt/Puppy @ckr1969 At the end of the day, all cars should be able to get over a regular speed bump or up a gravel driveway, especially at 1.6 million dollars. No one said anything about off-roading well, just driving along a typical unpaved dirt road wit... | |
| Stereophile review of the new Wilson Watt/Puppy @ckr1969 Couldn't one also use the same rationale to say that at over 1.6 million dollars, a Bugatti Veyron should be able to go off-roading? | |
| Stereophile review of the new Wilson Watt/Puppy The Sasha's would be better for rock music (more bass where you need/feel it) and the speakers measure about the same otherwise, which one would expect as they use pretty much the same other components. A WWP with a sub would probably be the best... | |
| Stereophile review of the new Wilson Watt/Puppy @chrisoshea There is no contradiction. I told you why he feels that way. Whether you choose to accept it is another thing. | |
| ACTUAL MUSICAL SOUND VS. MEASUREMENTS But who's to say what "sounds good/bad"? One can always use the argument that "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" but we know it goes beyond that and there are standards (e.g., symmetry). | |
| Give Me a 3D Printer and Who Knows What I'll Come Up With... Ever have one of those blade-type fuses that you just can't get anything on because there's stuff in the way? | |
| ACTUAL MUSICAL SOUND VS. MEASUREMENTS Mapman is exactly right..., music would be all out of tune without measurements. Take a string instrument as an example. On a string instrument, one octave is half the string length, and each subsequent octave is half that length. Same goes for ... | |
| Stereophile review of the new Wilson Watt/Puppy I understand what he's getting at and see where he's coming from. If you look at the FR you see that they have fairly smooth extension into the bass frequencies with the peak ~70Hz declining below that and from there up to ~500 Hz. The extension... | |
| Trends in value of vintage / used audio equipment? @guscreek Original Chartwell LS3/5As in at least 9.9 condition. They were given to me by my neighbor’s adult kids when he passed away a few years ago and they were emptying and selling the house. I even got an extra NOS woofer for them that I f... | |
| Trends in value of vintage / used audio equipment? How about meters and a scope? | |
| Package Has Disappeared in USPS System ...Because the seller is aware that the delivery company is a bunch of screw-ups and had the foresight to take out insurance (charging the buyer in the cost as appropriate) so that he could reinburse the buyer when they do. I run a business and h... | |
| Which sounds better 2 way or 3 way speaker design I said ~80 Hz for the bottom of the midrange because the idea is to keep at least the fundamentals of the human voice within one driver and there are those who can certainly sing lower than that. |
