| Does a weave of cables really make a difference? Also, I've never seen @audphile1 share a bad take; the previous comment included. | |
| Does a weave of cables really make a difference? The assumption with using a full loom of cables is that all of the cables get everything right and fit perfectly with your components’ and speakers’ intrinsic sound. It just doesn’t work that way. There’s a dearth of cable manufacturers that have ... | |
| Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like" @tweak1 It could actually be a good thing, meaning a more capable top end from upgrading, but elusive room acoustical properties can give the extra high frequency energy an unnatural or unpleasant ring. When I went through several sound system imp... | |
| How do you high pass your main speakers? @ditusa Nah | |
| Your experience of moving to two subs @soix I’ll let ya know. @12many Yes, bass is mixed using L and R just like anything else. But the higher frequencies certainly give much more soundstage positioning cues. Often, the low bass sounds are set evenly between L and R, which is the sam... | |
| Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like" @lalitk They are basically the same adapters that I mentioned briefly in the review. I'm currently using one on all four of my SDFBs. | |
| Your experience of moving to two subs Update with a few notes on my short journey here: (@soix, tagging u since u asked about my findings) 1) Reconfirmed more thoroughly my claim about aural locatability of my Rythmik F12G sub. Anyone can believe me or not, but when it’s only the su... | |
| Furutech NCF Clear Line - What to expect Thanks for sharing. It’s interesting to hear about variance in results with these devices of a subtle nature. They have a pretty strong effect on my system, with each added or subtracted unit changing the sound, even in outlets some distance from ... | |
| Bass- at what frequency does it change from sounding like a string to just a low tone? Yeah, almost no normal person is going to choose a ruler flat response. It’s really only an hypothetical ideal. We all have preferences which are also affected by offensive acoustical issues. | |
| Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like" Nice! Got slugs? *inserts a photoshopped photo of an attractive celebrity with a half-eaten slimy slug on her upper lip* | |
| Bass- at what frequency does it change from sounding like a string to just a low tone? The basic method mentioned by @erik_squires is going to be the most productive for most people. But you can get an idea of what your low end frequency response curve might look like by using something like the "Tone Pak" by Bass Mechanik just to g... | |
| Swiss Digital Fuse Box - "What headroom sounds like" LOL! Welcome to the slug club 😁 | |
| Top two most important sound qualities In an earlier comment, I said "clarity and tonality". It just occurred to me that there’s an overlap of the two together which I could call harmonic completeness. Subtle overtones can’t be heard without clarity, and these make music seem lively a... | |
| Subwoofers: add a JL Audio or switch to 2 Rythmic subs? Agree with the comments above, except to say that I’m more in the Rythmik type of sub-bass camp. My single Rythmik can shake the room in the 25-35hz-ish range the way I have it positioned, though. Still, not an ideal home theater sub at all. | |
| Bass- at what frequency does it change from sounding like a string to just a low tone? Strings produce a bunch of different frequencies that make them sound like a string. The technique used to vibrate the string changes the frequency profile, if you will, of the sound. A hard pick produces different frequencies than fingers, etc. ... |
