| Okay, the gloves are off. Let the fur fly Greg, now you're getting somewhere. One can correct a lot of the problems of a multi-way system simply by getting rid of the passive crossovers or at least minimizing them down to the bare essentials. This is what Israel Bloom does with the Coinci... | |
| HELP Speakers sound brighter and 3D stage is lost Natalie is right about toe-in. That would put Sukhi directly on axis with the tweeters, making them appear to be even brighter than what he is dealing with now. This would also reduce soundstage width and tend to focus imaging to a smaller, but po... | |
| XM Radio home receivers Someone else was talking to me about this, but i can't remember who it was or the specifics. I've been told that they do have XM antennas designed for home installation, so i would imagine that XM tuners are right down the road if they aren't alre... | |
| transaction gone bad Any recourse for me? HELP If you can get the seller, who'll we'll refer to as Mr A. Hole for simplicity sake, to sign a waiver and forward the rights to any claim over to you, you can file a claim with UPS. Since you had already paid for the products, he was simply forward... | |
| 35Hz - 25kHz -- A Partial 'Purist'? The Bag End design is VERY unique to say the least. The designer was definitely thinking "outside the box" on that one.One of my friends used to work for Bag End and told me stories about them. Besides the cabinet's not being built too sturdily ( ... | |
| Lifted grounds- No more FM distortion on Tuner Buckingham, stranger things have been known to happen. Just be glad that you were able to get the problem resolved. By the way, have you tried grounding the amps and lifting the preamp, tuner and other sources ? Some say this works better, but i t... | |
| Why do dealers email you when your selling? I've listed several items for sale over time and never gotten anything like the type of response that you state. I agree that it would be in-appropriate for a dealer to do something like that, but that's what they make the "delete" key for. Just c... | |
| Have you ever collected on insurance???? I have collected on every claim that i have made and learned a LOT about how these work along the way. Some have been resolved in as little as two weeks, others have taken almost a year. I currently have one in "litigation" with Fed Ex that is goi... | |
| Salsa and high energy latin jazz album suggestions I know that Francisco aka PsychicAnimal would have a large list to post here, but he just left to visit his family back home. I'm sure that he'll be overjoyed when he see's this one once he gets back : ) Sean> | |
| phillips TDA1541 chip If you don't get any responses here, try posting this over in either the Digital or Tweaks Asylum at AA. Sean> | |
| HELP Speakers sound brighter and 3D stage is lost Ezmeralda, i thought the same thing. The measurements are probable from the insides of each speaker in terms of spacing, then you have the width of each speaker cabinet ( which might be appr a foot and a half x 2 ) and then the distance from their... | |
| Naim -- Fatiguing? Drubin, i was talking about the design of the DIN connectors, not Naim itself.Lugnut, thanks for the kind words and clarification. My bedroom system consists of all Quad gear, hence my "love / hate" relationship with DIN connectors. The fact that ... | |
| subwoofer setup problem Karls, i think that most people don't realize that a vent is only "tuned" or "effective" at the one specific frequency that it is resonated at. As such, they are an absolute "mess" anywhere outside of that range and typically do WAY more harm than... | |
| Anyone familiar with "White Stripes" ??? Fujindemon, thanks for pointing out that Best Buy had this on sale. Picked it up and it's okay. Kind of old school stripped down rock and roll garage band material played with a somewhat "punk" attitude. I can hear quite a bit of "old fogey" influ... | |
| Naim -- Fatiguing? Lugnut, does Naim gear use 5 pin DIN's like some of the older Quad gear ? I sure hope not, as those are some of the worst connectors known to man. With all of the "hoopla" about "German Engineering", i can't believe that they found those things ac... |
