| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @lonemountain I have a feeling you know some of those guys, I got to talk to John Meyer for 2 minuets, I was star struck, the best part was I got to also meet Roger Nichols at the same workshop, I think it was at an AES convention about '85' or so... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @markw1951 Say you buy a 200k $ speaker system then add an amp (Nelson Pass A), is that amp the best it can be for that speaker? The answer is no, unless that amp was designed for each driver in that speaker it is not a perfect fit. The equation i... | |
| Thinking about a Steinway Lyngdorf system @mijostyn Thank you I appreciate your experience. @rick2000 Interesting speakers, hope they do well. | |
| Thinking about a Steinway Lyngdorf system @kota1 I think where Peter L is possibly a bit wrong about not having a center channel is that so much dialog is 100% sent to the center and music sounds good with the lead in the center, if you don't have a center channel but only rely on a cente... | |
| Thinking about a Steinway Lyngdorf system @mofojo You would think the 9hs would have a ton of bass the speakers really punch above their weight, hybrid design, beryllium tweeters, with large beryllium mids, and 4 woofers with balanced opposing frames and 2700W peak but in my case no, I bo... | |
| Thinking about a Steinway Lyngdorf system @mcroth I love the system I have, the PS Audio BHK Amps are very good with their hybrid tube design and I love ½ of my Paradigm 9hs the tweeter and mid drivers are wonderful but I had to replace the low end with the JL 113 subs and they buzz, I've... | |

| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @lonemountain What do you think about the Steinway Lyngdorf Model B system. They have the same speaker philosophy as we do I think. There are some good short videos on their page. | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @lonemountain In production sound 90% of all our energy is to accurately record the actors dialog, we would like to use a boom mic like the Sennheiser MKH-50 all the time but when the stupid directors (yes I'm still bitter) shoot wide and tight sh... | |
| World's Best Stereo System ?... @phoneman33 Thank you, I'm considering a Model D system but have never heard one, I have a Lyngdorf processor and it's great I have a Spiro Steinway Model B piano. I really appreciate you taking the time to list your thoughts. | |
| Tube or solid state I have a tube (hybrid) system and a ss system in the same room the differences are huge, the tube system sounds much better, warmer, more magic. The ss system has much less noise and sounds more accurate (true to the original recording). In record... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @phusis i think you made a great point about what I said about @kingharold horn system with years of trial and error concerning amps with the proper speakers. What I'm preaching is the inconsistencies when audiophiles read a TAS article and spend ... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @kingharold Thanks for the story, you make me really want to seek out horns. Glad you understand active speaker synergy, I feel like it is a step into audio reality away from arrogance. I just can't imagine someone paying so much money for speaker... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused @kota1 I'm sure there have been no movies done in that way. Of course Jim Cameron movies are the best 3D examples. I was going to present binaural recording to Cameron but it would be to much of a jolt listening to sound from a real point of view ... | |
| Powered speakers show audiophiles are confused So my next movie, the camera is a head and shoulders the microphones are literally in the ears of the mannequin the eyes would be 50mm camera lenses. the head could be set on camera dollies and steady cams. When you watch the movie you would be a ... |
