Trinnov audio, the maker of my pre-pro has come up with a way of cancelling the problem of smallish room bass called Waveforming. They place multiple subwoofers at be front and rear of the room, then using their technology, they time align them to re...

Yes, you are correct Paul that the space must be in the recording. Most don't have it, especially multi mike recordings and digital. Analog two mike have the best stereo, especially spaced Omni’s, and digital recordings from analog masters have more ...

i shut down my system every night. After 16-18 hours disconnected from the lectricity that it sounds somewhat quieter and more musical. But I Have also noticed that if I shut down the system for several days, on tunen the sound is greatly improved, q...

This is the setup guidelines for Auro 3d. How you decide on the numbers and placement of spekerrs depends on ho...

This is the least expensive way to try out Auro 3d that I could find. I'm sure there are others out there.Billhttps://www.ebay.com/itm/305160084120?...

All this does is keeps them from advancing their software. Companies should still be able to use the process to produce new software, manufacturers will be able to produce new pre-pros, and consumers will still be able to usectheir processors with al...

Auro can be set up for any number of extra speakers, from 2 to 14. One only has to set up for what he has available for ambiance speakers, from just two side or rear floor, to center, left and right side and rear, subs, to left right and center heigh...

How about this one? Have listened to several of the WDR recordings and they are very good. Do they stream or have recordings out?https://youtu.be/eu3f0-KXtaI?si=dqPoDYRNMGLbW-18...

if there is only one output on the source, it should feed the main speaker preamp or Dac. The preamp or dac digital or analog output would the feed the pre-pro or receiver with auro 3d capability which would then feed the ambiance channels.If the sou...

To follow up on Romy's latest broadcast on his visit to my house.My left and right speakers consist of Jl Audio 113 revision 2 subs to 70 Hz., Edgar 50 Hz. 6 foot Straight horns with two 12 inch electravoice drivers each to 500 Hz, Edgar round mid ho...

Paul, wish you were on the East rather than west coast. Then you could hear what Romy and I have with our two systems with concert hall reproduction and judge for yourself what it adds to concert realism. Of course, half of what I have in reproductio...

I had a Walker Proscenium turntable with various cartridges. About twenty years ago I converted all my vinyl to 24/96 files and have never looked back. As far as dsp processing, the Trinnov altitude does a superb job of either recreating the hall sou...

Warning. Do not try to purchase these Vitavox horns from the following site. https://www.shoppok.com/atlanta/a,49,418526,Vitavox-Cn-191-Corner-Horn-Speakers.htmPurchased them supposedly through reputable escrow company in England. Since they received...
|
I would bet that Romy prefers to sit from mid hall to the back of the hall, as I do, and our penchant for for large orchestral music. Thus, while sitting up front gives the orchestra stage maybe 120 degrees wide, with little hall sound, it tends...
|
I worked on the Dannoy's for about a year, first with the Vitavox bass driver, then using two tannoy red 10's using only the cone for the second unit to improve volume and bass reproduction. Changed out amplifiers, used original, English new knockoff...

Feeling less depressed this am. After returning from Romy's and coming down from the high produced by his sound, I made the mistake of turning on my system, which had sounded great the night before. Within less than a half hour I turned it off and we...
|
Was invited over to Romy's today for a listen. In the last two days, he made several small but critical changes in the time alignment, crossovers, and room damping, and the sum of them has brought his system up by several notches producing the best a...

Was invited over to Romy's today. Spent two hours going through recordings. First, I hear differently from him. At my age,76, I had a hearing test that showed oversensitivity in the 1000 to 6000 hZ range, and quick drop off above 10,000 Hz.Second, I ...

It wasn't the caps. The 12 inch drivers were both frozen solid after being stored in a dry basement for 30 years. Looks like the coils somehow fused to the magnets.Ordered a used pair from Japan for $300 with shipping and they arrived after 20 days i...
|
In his latest YouTube,Romy mentioned using my prepro to time align my drivers.I use the Trinnov Altitude 16 prepro which has a total of 20 channels. 16 of the channels have balanced analog outputs and the othe four Channels use the rca and optical sp...

Thank you Roku. Will try replacing them first.Bill...

These were my first high end speakers purchased in 1980. They have been sitting in my basement for about 30 years as I've gone through everything from VMPS super tower 2 ar's to B&W 800 to my self built Edgar horns, which I’ve been using for abou...
|
Per your recommmendation at your last visit, wish to try using your injection channel with the Dannoy with my horns.Are you using the tannoy only as a tweeter? If so, would you recommend my removing my tweeter and using only the tannoy's, or use both...

Had problems 2 and 3 here with my British crossovers
Both speakers have the 78 hz. Dip after a 50 hz. Peak. they are probably room resonances. Try moving the speakers and/ or the mike and remeasure.
Also you ha...

Would want $300 plus shipping costs. You can contact me at docgaw@msn.com....

Use plumber's putty.If you have 4 of the tannoy drivers try using two in each cabinet but only drive one tweeter. Adds 6 dB before distortion.while the sound is very good, it doesn't quite have the sound I heard at Romy's, but he hasn't been able to ...
|
Better would be to check the DC voltage output of the firewall. If the same as the input voltage of the pure power, a better way to go. Otherwise, how it would sound would be dependent on the quality of the AC output of the inverter....

The next day the magic had gone. Oh well, let it snow!...
