| How close to the real thing? Thanks for the links, he quoted even higher for the marching band, 125db @ 100 ft away. With a starting point of 100db per instrument, it would take 256 players to make 124db @ the instruments or 1024 players to make 130db... I don't have any idea... | |
| How close to the real thing? Michigan State? Lets get the right mic's, get the perfect recording and play that one in your living room! Maybe I don't play at live levels. | |
| How close to the real thing? Michigan State???? Thats a whole bunch of musicians playing as loud as they can, but 120db...@ 100 foot back??? 121db is our threshold of pain. 100 ft back?... it would have to be near 130db at the instruments.... I would have to question that one... | |
| How close to the real thing? Well Hifihvn, you just enlightened me, I didn't even consider the violin at the ear, nor am I experienced with any large scale concert type instruments. and yes, we have headphones that allow some hearing. We do have a sound chamber that drummers ... | |
| How close to the real thing? Hi Hifihvn, Drummers wear headphones because they are mic'd and are using the headphones as monitors. Drums get very loud, up to 110db. I have not heard any strings that can cause hearing damage. Granted most of my live listening is to cello and v... | |
| How close to the real thing? I think quite a bit has been accomplished here... By sharing experiences, each of us has put that together and at least have a much better idea of what it takes to come closest to reproduce live as closely as possible. I have come to believe that ... | |
| Anyone try stuffing their ports? Hi Sparky/Karma16, You are talking about a very different animal with your B&W's. They are designed for the plug to properly roll off the bass to integrate the subwoofer... B&W knew the outcome of your plug before you ever thought about pl... | |
| Coda VS Muse Model 3 Signature Hi Ucanhear2, I imagine that the Muse will be very good. I'd give it a fair shot. I have only owned budget preamps in the past.Kenwood LO7C, Kenwood Basic C1, Sumo Electra, Hafler, PS Audio 4.0, PS Audio 5.7, HK, Audio Refinement, Sumo Athena and ... | |
| Ideal Pre Amp for Bryston 3B ST or 4B SST 2 I'm going along with Bob reynolds, You may not call it synergy, but when a designer designs both an amp and preamp, he matches them exactly as he see's they should be, no voltage or impedance mis matches, similar idea's and normally the same brand... | |
| warm sounding amp suggestions??????? The B&K 10 series of preamps whether Sonata, pro or MC are probably the best of the B&K equiptment. All are neutral leaning warm and fairly accurate preamps. There are plenty of better preamps out there, but at their price, B&K preamps... | |
| warm sounding amp suggestions??????? I currently have a very highly modified Sumo Nine. It definately leans warm. Before mods, it was slightly warmer, but not as deeeeeep in the bass nor as smooth on top, but still very good. You can probably pick one up for $500. to $600. stock. The... | |
| How close to the real thing? Irvrobinson, I was thinking the same thing. I noted above that I do sound quite often for live music. You think audiophiles are subjective, you should hear musicians talking about EVERYTHING changes the sound of their instruments. Stings, differen... | |
| Coda VS Muse Model 3 Signature Hi Ucanhear2, No, I never made a direct comparison. I had asked the original question, because I was looking between Coda and Muse. I had found a Legacy preamp and knew that Coda built it. I called Coda and Doug told me that he had a Windows Conti... | |
| Coda VS Muse Model 3 Signature Ucanhear2, I ended up buying the Coda piece myself, but when looking, I found the model 3 averaging between $550 and $650, while the Signature 3 was averaging $800. to $1000... Just want to point that out, If you really like the Muse 3, with a bit... | |
| Making active speakers with 4 Gallo A'Divas You have no great advantage to use a crossover in this configuration. What ever problems one driver has the other will share, the idea would be that if you had a low region coloration to cross it out to a woofer below or if you had a dip or peak i... |
