I would like to share a concept that is not widely understood or even not formulated in mind of many audio people but something the has a tremendous importance to me personaly. The readers of my site know that I do not like the concept of dedicated ...

Rowuk, yesterdays I was attending the Jennifer Koh concert (a stunning concert BTW) and no, I was not thinking about you. Still, suddenly an interesting argument comes to my mind that a bit defeats your notion of standing waves. A standing wave is f...

[quote user="Bud"]Yes. Their is a direct correlation between surge current and dielectric materials dielectric constant. The voltages in question are high enough to use a thick dielectric material and just as with the effective resistance of the capa...

Don't confuse between live music and recorded music. I never speak of "correct tone" with regard to live music or real instruments. A Strad sounds like a strad and a POS violin sounds like a POS violin. Both tones are "corrrect" for...

Paul.you marvelously identified the characteristic Kharma Sound. However, what is very important to understand in my attitude toward Kharma that the Kharma Sound has much more “negative load” with itself then juts being a poor sound from a manufactur...

[quote user="morricab"]I do have a speaker with a flat impedance. It is an Apogee Caliper Signature with an impedance variation from 3 to about 4.5 ohms over the whole range. Fortuneately it is not so dead as your example as it has about ...

[quote user="frody8lp"]I'm crushed! Just for the record your sight is regarded as ridiculous. [/quote] I sincerely hope you. If people like you do not find me site “ridiculous” then I waste my life in audio. You come to the site searching your ways ...

I have no comments about it besides assuring that the company that state all of it does crap in term of Sound. Still, I find that the way in which they think about construction of the walls of their back-loaded horn worth very much attention. Tak...

[quote user="stuck.wilson"]one of the most heinous- outside public opinion- is the current state of 'studio recording'- not scrupulous and thorough transparent use of good recording equipment, but the economics-derived aesthetic of ...

Yesterday a local hi-fi guy invited me to listen his new speaker. He picked up Altec Model 19 - I am known not to be a big fun of those speakers but they have own sound in the scale of non-demanding, off-the-shelf monitors. Upon expecting the speaker...

[quote user="drdna"]Maybe I don't know what DPOLS is, as suggested by others in this forum. All I know is that I can spend a lot of time fiddling with the exact location of the speakers, the sepcific 3 dimensional alignment of the two sets of d...

This is my first horn build effort. Been thinking about this since starting to build loudspeakers and finally have a listening space big enough to support a horn system. This is where I am at now, I know there are opportunities for improvement. And I...

Adrian, I had Edgarhorns that have evolved since I bought them in 2005. In my current set-up, nothing remains of the original Edgarhorns as conceived by Bruce, other than the speaker system remains front loaded horns. I noticed the same sense of he...

Actually my wish for DSETinisation of Gammas has nothing to do neither money nor with Sound, really. The Audio-Morons™ buy and sell audio, and particularly those who are in the $200.000 bracket not because some specific sonic accomplishments or utili...

Some folks from Australian audio site nominated my Macondo as the ugliest loudspeaker. I would disagree but my objective in this thread is not arguing about tastes but to talk a bit about reference points of judgments. It is irrelevant to me per...

Well, my experience indicates that if in the installation of this topology people chose to use 4th order crossovers then they play crappy pop music on their audio. To play pop music within playback and to have pop interests in music is certainly not ...

Good question, rowuk, particularly by the fact that you are
looking a way not how to get it but to understand the ways to get there. Also,
I am very glad that you are not taking about “slam music” but about, where good
bass certainly shine but abo...

what is audio ?
Audio is our reaction to sound , if there are audiophiles with different reactions then you may convince yourself Audio quality is relative to listener.
I think it is not true. The real quality exist itself .

first i should say i need more time to judge the Audiopax for some reasons but i try to share the first thing come to my mind after listening to Audiopax.
I should say i use Pure Power 3000+ , I mean i judge Audiopax when it is c...

David, the Merriam-Webster dictionary describes “high end “as
superiority quality or sophistication. The loudspeakers you posted are inferior
in quality of delivery and in sophistication of implementation. In fact they
are just a reflection of inc...

[quote user="unicon"]I agree and understand how important is moving the speakers to find the symmetrical impulse from both channels BUT in microscopic movement we mainly correct the vibration of speakers which indeed effects the whole things.in m...

[quote user="drdna"] There is no mystery in how the machine works, really. A very crude analogy is how they used to put a dark blue filter on the camera to simulate night scenes in movies. It was cheaper and more practical to shoot ...

[quote user="op.9"]Yes, I agree they are different issues. However, quite a big however too...It all depends on where we believe 'reproduction' starts. We are very rarely simply reproducing the feed form one single microphone. Choices are made very e...

I stopped yesterday in Borders at lunch and looked through the June’s Stereophile. It had Wes Philips review of the Watt/Puppy 8. The writing was below any criticism - it was not review but rather the typical product release drumming. I do not ...

None of the commercial speakers might relay on the Imbedded principles because the obvious reasons. They always look for as neutral as possible location because they mostly designed for anechoic operation. However, if the Imbedded techniques are used...

Yes, Petar
I would agree with the most but with horn-loading all compromises suddenly do not get evaporated. The horn is not a panacea as the horn-loading is basically as well bandwidth-limited. In fact for objectivity sake I might say that the dire...

Thinking about the MiniMe this point I already know that I made a mistake with the MiniMe design.
The MiniMe might turn out to be an OK speaker but when I was thing about its dimension and the way how it will be used with Macondo I was thinking abo...
