Subwoofer speed is in the room, not the box @mijostyn "I listen to everything from Nine Inch Nails and The Red Hot Chili Peppers to Cherubini String Quartets. I have eight 12 inch drivers in a 16 X 30 foot room, each one powered by 2500 watts. I am into chest thumping as much as anyone... | |
Subwoofer speed is in the room, not the box @mijostyn "If subwoofers and main speakers are integrated correctly there is no reason to turn the subs up or down with any genre of music. A system that is tuned correctly does not care what genre you are playing. When I use the term , system I i... | |
Subwoofer speed is in the room, not the box @gdaddy1 “Using my ears (crazy isn't it?) I concluded that if your main speakers produce good bass down to 50hz why restrict them? Why? Because it sounded better, fuller, more glorious. Plugging ports and making a sealed cabinet restricts cone m... | |
A Story about a Defective Signature Platinum @mijostyn Sorry to hear about your issues with the MSL. It seems that the MSLs were once the flavor of the day MC. I can certainly attest to the sonic merits of the Soundsmith Hyperion. It is easy to set up (mounted on SME V), has a recommended... | |
Horns with good timbre and tonality? "Classic Audio’s T 1.5 Reference by a mile. All the others are wishful thinking. SET ready, high impedance, field coils and all." I knew they were the "one" when I first heard them at Capital Audio Fest. I was open minded about my new speakers du... | |
McIntosh MX121 Test Tones? I have a MX121 but plan on changing to a MX123 soon. My theater is being rebuilt in a new home. I would test the cables. You state that there is a signal; however, have you tested the outputs of the amp powering the center channel? Swap amps and r... | |
Curious Why Benz Micro Slid Into Obscurity @dogberry Congratulations. The Benz LP and then LPS introduced me to the world of higher end MCs. The sound and tone of the LPS is just beautiful and balanced. On my system, it seemed best playback loading was 47k with an Aesthetix Io also on... | |
Curious Why Benz Micro Slid Into Obscurity I was and still am an avid fan of the BM cartridges. Going back a few years, myself, along with a few others shared our stories and experiences on this very forum. I believe many are still enjoying them, have moved on, or experienced life matters.... | |
Bad news for home theater enthusiasts We are all going to become Blu-Ray/DVD hoarders the same way we are hoarding records, LOL. | |
Bad news for home theater enthusiasts I’m guess this might be a market for Kaleidoscope or similar competitors. You can download an uncompressed digital copy to a local hard drive. https://www.kaleidescape.com | |
A speaker audio journey over: Classic Audio Loudspeakers T1.5 Reference = End game Hi everyone, I just got a used pair of non-field-version coil T-3.2, I don't have manual, may I know should I connect the speaker cables to 8ohm or 4ohm on amplifier? Currently, I connect to 8ohm but not sure if this is correct. Thank you. ... | |
Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing @atmasphere , Thank you for the response. That is great to hear that your new amps adequately power the T3s and the T1s. I think these amps would be a good alternative to the either the Novacrons or MA60s I was looking at. The thought of a compac... | |
Atma-Sphere Class D… Amazing Would these amps drive higher impedance loads easily? Let’s say Classic Audio Loudspeakers. I know only a handful of folks to include myself and Atmasphere who own T.1 series of the Classic Audio Loudspeakers. I own the T1.5s. These are often mate... | |
Is a home theater even worth it or doable? I am a 2 channel person as well, but could not build this large dedicated listening room without taking into account family and friend gatherings, especially since not many of them have been exposed or experienced a truly immersive home theater. P... | |
Klipsch Cornwall IV Anyone using the Cornwall IV's as true LCR home theater speakers? Behind screen or in front. Interested in determining if these would be a good alternative to some other floor standing loudspeakers for home theater. |
