Magico S1 vs YG Carmels
It was a “tweaked” V3. At that time I owned a V3, and at the demo, they sounded nothing like the V3 I owned. I would not put too much weight in to that shoot out.The S1 is quite superior to the YG, including the bigger, more expensive 2 ways the...

I have to think Revels Salon 2's face design is far more "technically appropriate"The Q series face plate is indeed sculpted, and unlike Revel, which have a large flat area around the drivers, the Q face plate is completely round on the horizontal...

A QTC of .5 is called transient perfect for a reason - it reproduces transients (ie with the least amount of ringing) the best of any alignment. It is the most accurate - but most people do not like it - it sounds a bit lean and thin. Higher QTC'...

Guys, please take it easy. Although I agree with Melbguy1; Charles1dad passive-aggressive style is irritating, there is no need for any “reporting”.I stated my views, unfortunately no one seems to bother to take the time to read them. It is easy t...

People here are mature adults and can accept contrary points of view, that's simply lifeI must have missed something, but what king of “views” are we talking about? I “like/dislike” is a view more suitable to a 5 year old. Sorry if I offended you ...

A QTC of .5 is the most accurate...QTC is not a scale for determining how good a speaker is, it is simply an indicator of how the speaker behaves at its resonant frequency. A 0.5 QTC is not more or less “accurate” then a QTC of 0.6 or 0.7 (In gene...

You can like what you (think) you like, but it has already been proven that in a control environment, tested blind, most people prefer a better engineered loudspeaker (see Floyd Toole work). The reason audio is a “subjective” experience has nothin...

Forget measurements - you hear music - not measurements Sorry mate, but you lost me there.You do understand the difference between listening to “music” and listening to “music reproduction”, right? If you do, you then must agree with me that what ...

Look, these are two entirely different speakers. I prefer the Tannoy - but that means Jack Shite It means Jack Shite because you have no empirical data to support why you prefer it.Why would anyone prefer a higher THD, trainwrack frq and power res...

Isn't that the best way to really know if something works or not? No it is not the best way. One does not have to jump from the roof to know it will be a painful landing. Regardless, it is perfectly fine to do what you are doing, but once you repo...

Aren’t you the guy from audio shark who keeps changing speakers like I change socks? So you discover the high-efficacy, SET world? It has been around for some time you know, and yes, it has its charm and can work well as an office system. You are ... 
Sloped baffle
Kiddman,You are absolutely right. Solving one issue (If at all, in this case) , while creating many others is a far cry from good engineering, or good sounding loudspeakers. People who get stuck behind “critical” issues, usually do not see the ent...
