EQ's... why doesnt everybody have one? Drubin, that might not be an issue if one's speakers were already time coherent. | |
Pass X250 verses X250.5 How far into class A do these two amps go before going into class AB? | |
CLASS A AMPLIFIERS There are very high powered pure class A amps. Needless to say they are typicaly very expenisve, very big, very heavy, run very hot and are costly to operate. | |
EQ's... why doesnt everybody have one? I was told by TacT that one couldn't use their room correction software to specificaly target frequencies (such as bass). One would have to allow the entire frequency response to be corrected and then one could over correct back to the original un... | |
