| Active Speakers Don't Sound Better So how did you go about correcting for non linearity in the drivers? Do you use PEQs in the amps or external software etc. | |
| Comparison of various subwoofers for 2 channel audio How is the bass in the main listening position? Most rooms only need two subs for even bass optimized for a single seat. More is always better but may not be need. Far more important is how are you going to control 4 subs? Are you going to cro... | |
| Crossovers and power handling, and why 1st order filters can be bad Very nice and I agree. I have owned both 1st order (Thiel) and 4th order (Revel) speakers at the same time. The Revel played far louder and I found the time alinement of the Thiel eligible in real world application. Played at lower typical vol... | |
| JTR RS1s (18” sealed subs) vs JL Audio E112s, (JBL 4367) Mijostyn, I have followed your system over the years and it has always looked impressive, I am sure it sounds amazing. SHD studio is an interesting idea. It would also allow for Dirac on the source side. I ordered a few more cards for ... | |
| JTR RS1s (18” sealed subs) vs JL Audio E112s, (JBL 4367) m-db The only built in frequency adjustment on the sub is a manual low effect control adjusted by a knob. It adjust the slope from 40hz-10hz by about 8dB and has a surprising large effect on the sound. Audioholics discusses it in their review lin... | |
| Cornwall IV vs. Volti Rival, Razz; Razz v. 1, 2, 3 -- what changed? Silverfox, Home theater bypass is very easy. You can send the left and right pre-outs from your receiver/processor to any analogue input on your two channel pre-amp. Just set the volume knob at a consistent place when using it for movies. If y... | |
| JTR RS1s (18” sealed subs) vs JL Audio E112s, (JBL 4367) On a side note I will try some higher crossover points soon. I need to order cards (only $12) for the K235 as it does not have a variable adjustment. I “knew” roughly where I wanted to start playing in my system from past experience. I sometimes ... | |
| JTR RS1s (18” sealed subs) vs JL Audio E112s, (JBL 4367) Phusis, Seem like good insight on your comments above. I also set up the subs a few different ways before settling on the K235 crossover. #1 I used my surround processor (Marantz) to crossover, time align the subs with my mains. I tried a numbe... | |
| Mofi Sourcepoint 888? Midrange glare is the worst trait in a speaker. It will be interesting to hear opinions with other front ends. | |
| JTR RS1s (18” sealed subs) vs JL Audio E112s, (JBL 4367) Yeah I guess they are expensive but they seemed like a good buy in their market. The E112 in gloss is $2700 now and a fair enough price comparison. The trade off is the JTRs are ugly beasts lol other subs I looked at: JBL SUB18, $3800 without ... | |
| Mofi Sourcepoint 888? They look like a total steal at the current price. I would imagine a line is forming. I think the crossover to the woofer is 120hz so it would almost be like adding a small sub to the source point 8. Might be a waste of money however if someone i... | |
| Martin Logan 13A's with Rel subs? A match? I don’t have time to write a comprehensive review at the time. Below is a pretty good video. I have/own the JTR RS1s and JL E112s mentioned in this video and I pretty much agree with what is said about them The JTR is more detailed and less dam... | |
| Martin Logan 13A's with Rel subs? A match? I would guess they would make it worse. Adding an active or passive highpass and using a really good sub would do the trick. Honestly that might not be rel. I would look at large subs (15” or more). With as low as your speakes go you will really n... | |
| Martin Logan 13A's with Rel subs? A match? I am confused, am I correct in thinking the Logan 13A has room correction in their powered subs and go down to 24hz? I bet they go as low or lower than most of the rels minutes top few models. | |
| Double up on speaker cables It will lower the resistance and not do much else the power will follow the path of least resistance. |
