| Two way Satori TW29R-B & Satori WO24P-8 9.5" Egyptian Papyrus Cone Woofer - 8 ohm Both great drivers! But it would be very hard, if not impossible to get them to mate as a 2 way. Seems that no matter where you cross them over, there would be problems. either the tweet would have to be crossed over too low, which would help th... | |
| Great Classical Recordings I have many classical recordings, including full sized orchestras, with very good imaging. But, when you have between 70-100 members of an orchestra, it is hard to differentiate between each individual violinist of 16-18, for example. But they are... | |
| High Fidelity Sound Speaker I’ve heard plenty of full range speakers. Voxativ, Cube Audio, Lowther, and plenty more. And yes, they do some things very well. But they trade off way too much to be completely satisfying, for me. Maybe if I had enough money to have a second sy... | |
| Your Favorite Christmas Song-One only Please- Jethro Tull - Ring Out, Solstice Bells Ring Out, Solstice Bells | |
| Beat This Track!!!! (For Soundstage effect) I guess it depends on whether one wants a natural sounding soundstage, that is a result of good recording methods and techniques, capturing the existing ambient and spatial cues of the venue where the performance is occurring. Or soundstage create... | |
| Does Time alignment and Phase coherency make for a better loudspeaker? As I said earlier in this thread, I have compared 2 speakers, one set time aligned, the other set, not. They are Jeff Bagby's DIY kits, the "Kairos" speakers, and his "Adelphos". Same drivers (the great SB Acoustics 'Sartori' ring radiator tweete... | |
| You Cant Buy It but you Can Build It I have been a long time advocate of DIY with regards to speakers. There are so many great, very high end level speaker kits available, by well respected designers. The end results are almost guaranteed to best the sound of commercially available s... | |
| Finally Learned: Subs serve much larger role than adding more low bass -More enjoayble sound stage This is something that does not get mentioned often enough. Although, it is probably more related to classical music recorded in a concert hall, more than other types of music, at other venues, or a studio. There is... | |
| Sonus faber center speaker as front? I would definitely contact Sonus Faber on this. Most center channel speakers that I am aware of, are not just regular MTM speakers that you place on their side. I believe there are other design differences in order for the center channel to do t... | |
| Suggestions for high efficiency speakers? You should definitely look into some of the offerings from Pure Audio Project. Pure Audio Project Like the Quintet 15 (if you have a large room), or the Quintet 10. Or maybe something in the Trio line. Nice thing about these speakers (other tha... | |
| Does Time alignment and Phase coherency make for a better loudspeaker? It seemes to me, that if all else was equal, but one speaker was not time and phase alligned, and the other was, the one that was would sound better. And I even have a bit of pretty strong evidence that this is the case. The late Jeff Bagby, wel... | |
| High Fidelity Sound Speaker I’ve been away from the speaker forum for a while. Didn’t "mozartfan" post under a different name at one time? | |
| What song have you played the most? My collection is pretty large, and so much of it I place on pretty equal footing as far as quality, so it would be almost impossible to pick out one "most played song". I will break it up among the 3 different genres I listen to. Here are my be... | |
| Chinese fake cables How fake, how good? As long as this old thread has been brought back from the dead, I might as well pitch in my feelings. I have no problems buying Chinese cable "clones", because I am not taking any money out of the pockets of the real companies. As much as I spend... | |
| Audiophile virtues I’ve gradually come to the conclusion that music and the love of sound don’t have to be mutually exclusive. But the music MUST COME FIRST. After that the sound can be thoroughly enjoyed for what it is. i DONT believe (as some evidently do) that ... |
