| What if a high end speaker measures really badly? @amtprod The DSP fixed frequency response and killed the magic. DSP isn't the answer. | |
| Townshend Isolation Products. Breaking news (anyway, experience from last night). I bought new speakers. they sounded excellent on my Townsend platforms. I took them off to try them coupled to the floor and while they were off I ordered some new feet for them. they staye... | |
| What if a high end speaker measures really badly? A speaker can sound very good yet have a significant dip (or more than one).

| Should we care if a piece of equipment comes from a pet-free, kid-free, smoke-free home? While kid free and pet free, are not deal breakers, they are a plus. A piece of equipment that smells of smoke is a definite dealbreaker. | |
| So sad about Netflix sound quality. No one can hear it PS. I just bougth a 4k DVD player and bought Oppenheimer in 4k. Will test it next week. While this solves the problem for good movies (you can buy a 4K DVD for less than 2 theatre tickets), it doesn't solve the problem for random moives you wan... |
