Since my new room is set and the playback is installed and configures I name an interesting observation:

Continue to think in this direction I come to very promising hy...

I guess I am the lucky one! I met my wife through music, we both were writing ambient/experimental stuff back then but did not have much of a chance to have face to face time, just exchanging music and being in different cities, well... Fast forward ...

[quote user="oxric"] What is you say is not only irrelevant but quite wrong. The frame, legs and supporting rig are in the main invisible from the listening position and this was a design requirement from the very beginning. I do not dislike criticis...

What fascinates me is the whole idea of room acoustic being basically invisible to us - despite measuring differently, we don't really notice the effects of room acoustics in the rooms we aren't actively listening in. Your friend's voice in an audito...

Kunashirsky, I do not want to “estimate the remastered vinyl obtained by this technology”. Nether I want to “go to Page 8 of your site” or to any other page. It look like you have some kind of strong believes about some kind of things, so do I. One o...

I got a few days an email from the site reader where he expressed interest about DPoLS and informed me that is working on his own methodology to deal with DPoLS. This kind of revived in my memory when my own installation was in DPoLS positions, God,...

...like their own music when they can put it on, and they are 4 and 7 years old. Once they were old enough to negotiate with (somewhere around 2yo) they learned very quickly not to touch my stereo gear and the lessons have stuck to this day.I love t...

The brickish finish does not make me cringe, in fact I do like the idea. I do not feel that it would be some kind of non-truths. There is no truths or non-truths in it. The only a few first feet of the horn will be visible and then it will go to dark...

The entire morning I am cleaning house and listening WCRB, warming myself up for 3MP broadcast of Riccardo Muti leads Chicago with Verdi's Requiem. Hey, did I tell you that am listening my new midbass horns? Well, I do and I do not. The throats of th...

I have an Upright piano in my listening room, it has been there since day one, so I dont know how different my room would sound wihtout it... Maybe I will haul the piano out one day just to test it: nah...A bunch of years back we were testing two a...

I've been reading about the acoustic characteristics of the world's great symphony halls, like Boston and the Concertgebouw. Did you know that Sabine, Berenak, and Cyril Harris mathematically defined those characteristics, using metrics like RT-60, ...

Last week I spent in NYC and while Amy was hanging along some kind of malignancy conference of her and had a couple hours free around Grand Center Station and I decided to drop by at Innovative Audio at 58 street. I know that they Wilson and La...

N-Set, Happy New Year. I think you are running 230v 50hz in Poland so a lot of comments on this board may not be applicable. I lived in a 50s house in the US at 120v 60hz with terrible electrics (terrible everything really but that is a different sto...

There of course is a ton of garbage on the net about the sound quality of a DAW with WLAN vs gigabit ethernet, analog or digital power supplies, memory, manufacturer of hard drive, active ports.I have primarily only really invested in lowest noise an...

[quote user="slack key"]I know that speaker position and room acoustics are important. I use a laser to align the speakers, room treatments, hallographs, crystals, ionizer, Z-sleeves, bybee filters, etc. I also have power conditioners, installed de...

Is there a pill for that too? Seriously, it would be very interesting to hear what solution you come up with because I have converted from listening music solo to a small number of audience (friends). So much that I listen by myself much less oft...

A year has passed since I moved to my new home at the Mass
and New Hampshire border. Last week, the
setup of my listening room was complete. I am planning to record a video with my
observations in regard to my new listening room....
|
Jessie, as it happens, I find my own best listening position varies somewhat these days, depending on what I'm listening to or for. For the best overall energy in my fairly energetic room, it is with my ears about 1 1/2 m off the...

Collin,I am pleased that you found my suggestions worthwhile.
I approached the issue of your music room with two questions in mind:1- How to avoid the structural angle from interfering with the sound2- Would an enlarged room be worthwhile...

Got the right channel open baffle installed. It's certainly
not finished cosmetically but it is fully functional. There is nothing measured
or calibrated But I spent quite a few hours listening last night. It is very
very very interesting result. ...

I remember a couple year back I was observing how sound of playback interact with sound of the forest just out of my listening room. Somebody even proposed that it would be fun to have Mahler 7 complimented by the scream “off stage” life deer… Last n...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"] I have 2 ULF "boxes"; each has an 18" McCauley 6174.
The enclosures are sealed and each measures 14 cubic feet. They are made from 70mm thick concrete blocks.
Power is from a pair of M1.1 amps (100 Watts each)....

A guy visited me today and while I was playing to him some music an ides stroke me: how to make ULF channels invisible? I have given birth to a ridicules ides to make huge, 40hz, no-cheating horns in time-aligned position absolutely invisible in list...

[quote user="rickmcinnis"]It is possible someone would buy the house JUST FOR THE SYSTEM and leave it as a separate listening house… [/quote] Yes, that would be very gratifying for sure and my ego will be dramatically enlarged but in reality we all k...

I have a question, person someone have investigated it. I have my DAW, with all it fans and sitting it basement, then I have a bunch of the 10-15” cables to all of my peripherals running to my listening room. What however I do not have in listening ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]The appendix in the corner of my room (I think it called rotunda) is very cool thing – it is where all my equipment lives – superbly comfortable and I can’t dream for better layout of my listening room. I am not kidding. Ho...

Nice post Romy, you're probably right, I can't say since I've never listened to a pair of speakers that really told me "what can be done". I've always owned and listened to speakers that are commercially made, and I've had to choose among the ones th...

Hi drdna, Three things that I have found that can seriously damage the performance of our horn system is: Speaker location, heavy gage or multi stranded speaker wire, and room reflections. When you locate the speakers, m...
