| sealed vs vented subwoofers Shadorne, check out Nelson pass's 11/1/08 artical on his website entitled " Audio, Distortion and Feedback." I think he's right when he says that preference for 2nd or 3rd order harmonic distortion is listener dependent. IMHO it's not so simple to... | |
| Village Vanguard session with Bill Evans Ghosthouse, I don't know to what extent subjectivism is important. It's probably pretty rare when something resonates with everyones conscienceness at the same and in the some way. I don't believe that art is purely objective and that all we need ... | |
| Anyone have any experience with the Tunami GPX-R ? Tvad, Assuming it's just the connectors which are different what do you think of the cord ? How flexible is it ? Thanks | |
| Village Vanguard session with Bill Evans Ghosthouse, I think the use of space can be very moving and sometimes less is indeed more. Some people like Count Basie made a living out of it. Others (Pops) used the implication of notes ( not playing them but playing in a way where one expects ... | |
| Anyone have any experience with the Tunami GPX-R ? TVAD, I thought that the gpx came standard with the 046 connectors with a special red barrel and modified plating thickness. - Jim | |
| Village Vanguard session with Bill Evans I think the village vanguard recordings are fantastic. Why ? Well it's not because of the number of notes played or " needed". What a curious concept. I have no idea how many notes are needed to express ones self in any given situation but if ther... | |
| Stereo Subs - Do they need to be identical? Yes science (theory) and experimentation are necessary to get you to where you need to go. Theory is a good starting place. Mounting into the wall (soffit) is an option and can be tried but you also have to factor into the equation the room length... | |
| Stereo Subs - Do they need to be identical? Shadorne, I think it depends upon the distance from the rear wall and the construction of that wall. Frequencies below about 45 hz or so pass through typical sheetrock walls and so no cancellation takes place. Therefore speakers more than 6 feet o... | |
| Low capacitance interconnect?? Acoustic zen absolute. 6.1 pico farads/foot | |
| Verity Parsifal or Magico V3 or Wilson Benesch ACT Well of course your right Dhaan but SF actually uses the 'transducer as a musical instrument' implicitly in their advertizing. In sense they "voice" the cabinets. The crazy thing is lots of people like this. What can you say? THEY think this is mu... | |
| Verity Parsifal or Magico V3 or Wilson Benesch ACT But Dhann you are assuming that eveyone purchases their speakers for same reasons that you do. They do not. They purchase and enjoy them all for their own reasons. They may not want faithful recreation of the recording on the disc. They prefer 'so... | |
| Verity Parsifal or Magico V3 or Wilson Benesch ACT Dhaan, I used to be purely in the objectivist camp like you. I could never understand Wilsons appeal based on their measurments. Somewhere along the way I discovered that there are lots of things to like about listening to music that can not be me... | |
| Audio Research Ref: CD8 Chad, I appreciate your response. Yes protools is not the enemy per se. My wife at one point was studying studio production and we have several friends who do it for a living. All of them have protools and some of them still have the old analog st... | |
| Audio Research Ref: CD8 Chad, O.K. I think you and I use 'imaging' differently. I refer to the ability to properly and solidly place an sound in space. What you call imaging I call resolution or detail. This ability does vary somewhat from player to player. I have been "... | |
| Audio Research Ref: CD8 Hi Chadeffect, not sure if you can be serious about the cd 7's "imaging". In my experience 90% of "imaging" results from room interactions and setup. 90% of the remaining 10% comes from the speakers. I think you might legitimately claim that the c... |
