| highly sensitive loudspeakers for single ended poe Consider a loudspeaker designed just for SET use. | |
| Analytical or Musical Which way to go? How do you know that what where measuring for is really the way to a great sounding loudspeakers? Would have to have the assumption that designers truly know what to measure, how to measure it and if it really has a major effect on quality. And wh... | |
| Do your speakers have enough "freshness" I prefer a ripe earthy quality with a touch of Jasmine. | |
| Can 10W 300B tube amp drive Martin Logan Ascent i? I would run the ML but not very well. | |
| Magnepan 1.7 crossover capacitor improvement? David maybe reread and answer my ? there's nothing this thread could teach me its you that needs schooling happy listening. | |
| Capacitor log Mundorf Silver in Oil Just wondering if any of you compared modified networks to stock to see if changes where really positive. | |
| Magnepan 1.7 crossover capacitor improvement? So how would you know that changing out crossover parts will improve sound. And once done how do you know its better than original? Are you keeping a stock 1.7 about to compare changes too? Or just the old I changed parts for more costly its bette... | |
| Subwoofer questions -- music only You will not hear stereo separation from dual subs but you will have smoother in room response running multiple conventional sub-woofers. | |
| size of the driver "Hoffman's Iron Law". First formulated back in the early 1960's by Anthony Hoffman (the H in KLH), Hoffman's Iron Law is a mathematical formula that was later refined by Thiele and Small, whose work now forms the basis of all modern loudspeaker de... | |
| Internal Speaker Cabling Supra and why not direct wire? The binding posts are the weak link far more than cables used. | |
| Cardersound Nina's underwhelming... It is only a fe126e a very small driver. Plus the enable process is a very questionable tweak. I feel you would be better off buying a larger driver than enabling a smaller one. | |
| upgrading speaker crossovers Many times iron core inductors are chosen for a reason. And the higher saturation of the iron core is factored into design. If one uses a aircore you reduce power handling and can raise SPL of woofer due to less insertion loss of the aircore which... | |
| Best speaker design for low to mid volume? Controlled dispersion designs sound better at low levels since they do not flood the listening space and direct SPL at listener thus better sound at lower levels. | |
| Most forgiving high end speaker 10k-20k? Many loudspeakers are undersized with to small a cabinet with to narrow a baffle and to small a driver for proper bass or mid bass. Plus we have made much progress in tweeters. So you end up with a thin sound that emphasizes the upper range. On gr... | |
| speakers for low level listening For me horns are the better loudspeakers at low volume levels. I have a few systems the ones with horns I can hear full sound at very low volume levels. The horns controlled radiation pattern allows sound to be less effected by room. Maybe conside... |
