| Bose 901...really Rodman99999...I have been surprised, and you would be also, by the excellent imaging and soundstage created by MY Bose901s in MY room. The wall behind them is 26 ft wide with a cathedral ceiling going up to about 24 ft, and with a wide and tall wi... | |
| Is there a decent used transport for under $300? Get an Oppo for less than $200 new. | |
| Getting back to members on passive vs active lines A CD player with 10K output impedance!!! What brand is that? 10 OHMS is quite possible with SS electronics, and less than 50 is typical. Even old tube preamps ran 600 ohms. | |
| Could this be a Major Breakthough ? Hifisoundguy...Water injection is an idea that has been around for decades. It has typically been used for brief bursts of power, as for an aircraft takeoff or during combat. The jet engines on early 707 aircraft used water injection on takeoff.I ... | |
| Which new OPPO DVD player is the one to get? I have an Oppo and agree with RW. What a deal!! | |
| Could this be a Major Breakthough ? I have developed a device that turns one dollar bills into tens. The cryo-treated version spits out twentys. And the tube model hundreds. | |
| Bose 901...really I was curious to see if the Bose equalizer could be completely replaced by the Behringer DEQ2496 (instead of using both in series). Answer is definitely YES, although the Bose user manual says otherwise. First set the Parametric function to 502 Hz... | |
| A 9 watts beats Passlabs, EAR and YBA ? Atmasphere...Thanks. I still don't get it, but am willing to believe you are correct in your conclusion. Until I run a little simulation anyway :-) | |
| when is a speaker considered full range? Shadorne....I'll grant you that we can get along without 12KHz -20 KHz (oh to be young again), but for some kinds of music there is indeed signal down to, and sometimes below, 20 Hz. To get it with any kind of power you need lots and lots of big d... | |
| A 9 watts beats Passlabs, EAR and YBA ? Atmasphere...True... if the feedback signal had gain increasing with frequency reduction the overall amp would exhibit LF roll off. But that would be easily corrected by equalization of the input signal.But the causial relationship between propaga... | |
| A 9 watts beats Passlabs, EAR and YBA ? Thanks for the info. You are a font of knowledge!I understand propogation delay and the need for compensation in the feedback loop to avoid oscillation. The part I don't get is where you say "The result is low-level odd-order harmonic generation".... | |
| when is a speaker considered full range? As frequency increases (towards 20 KHz) and decreases (towards 20 Hz) the loudness decreases. The range of a speaker is usually stated as the frequency where the loudness is decreased (rolled off) by 3 dB compared with loudness at a reference freq... | |
| A 9 watts SET for the Maggies, Heavenly marriage Nine watts! It must be a Platonic marriage :-) | |
| A 9 watts beats Passlabs, EAR and YBA ? Atmasphere...Would you please explain the mechanism whereby feedback causes odd order harmonic distortion. | |
| Bose 901...really Rodman99999 and Wireless200 have expressed the official audiophile opinion. I would most of the time agree. But, my swimming pool room is an unusual environment, and, on a hunch, I decided to give the 901s a try. I don't regret it.For serious list... |
