[quote user="enjoy_the_music"] Well I am fairly new to active speakers. I've been in contact with Merlin and Guy in the UK about these type of speakers and their experiences. I'm just taking it all in and then going forward making a few mistakes and ...

[quote user=" Jonathan Valin"] Third, in Munich, because of the severely limited amount of time available for setup (and the severely limited space to set up in), Wolf DSP’d the U3s for phase but did not DSP them for time alignment.... In Cali, the U...

I have been pitching about the superior importance of time alignment for years. It is not that I violently insist that people have their channels time-alignment. We kind of free people and everyone do whatever they want. Still, I exercise for years m...

Josh, I think that you touched more complicated subject then you think. Let me to explain why I feel this way. The fact that I advocate a dogmatic, religiously-stubborn, almost paranoid time alignment of the channels is not a secret. I do feel very c...

Romy,If you look behind the physical time alignment and start discussion about relative time alignment, that is a good start. Thing puzzle me about your view and comment of GOTO system setup that you have seen on pictures or web. How will you know ...

A site visitor sent me emails saying:
“Johan Dreyer says he can hear no time delay with his bass horns…”
Well, first of all I disagree with it. The fact that Johan Dreyer can hear no time delay is not an indication that delay is n...

Romy!Just to be cleared, GOTO has never claimed that time alignment is not important nor to suggest their customer that time alignment is not important. In a home listening environment, it is very difficult to do time alignment with a 3 or 4 way...

…How will you know they are not already in relative time-aligned even most of them are not shown a...
|
|
[quote user="MINGSU"] Of course, if the space is not an issue, time-aligned installation will be the only way to do. But, in a real world, that is not often the case. One has to live with lots of limitation, so time-aligned might have to be compromis...

Stefano.
I think you are confusing two things - moving channels and time alignment. Moving channels changes the relation between channels and room. It is powerful and expressive tool. Time alignment is the unanimous arriving of wave front to ears of...

Ming,
what you say is not exactly accurate. I have MANY desiccations about it with number Goto users in past and if I am not mistaken then even some kind GOTO official from past event argued this point with me. He insisted that Goto require 4...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]
The point that am trying to make is that the subject of the “home use“ driver vs. the “pro use drivers” is a bit complicated and the thing are not so clear as you, Stefano, is trying to present it to yourself.[/quote]Tha...

[quote user="skushino"]My desire is to use a pair of bass horns for each channel, both vertically oriented, one each exhausting to the floor and the ceiling. I have an idea that spatial presentation will gain a big boost with both up and down firing...

Use a ladder tye end of string put other end threw the horn you use for 1000Hz take off driver, measure front of driver to poll piece, that is were the diaphragm mounts to. add that to your measurement and that is were you put the tape. Then with the...

The Vittori does not suffer, neither do their owners. Who needs time alignment anyway?Well that loaded question has a simple answer - only those that really care about things like time alignment "need it". They most likely would not even consider the...
|

I do agree even the bass-bin is not time-aligned to the MF horn, I think it's at least ~25cm far from the midrange horn but IMO as frequency goes up, time-alignment gets more critical. this alignment might look "unnecessary" with when midrange and tw...
|
|
This type of the “time alignment” has as much to do with time alignment as if they whistle into the horn and observe the re-entering echo. What they do is perfuming the ritual dance in front to the loudspeaker that called “trade show ballet”. The Sit...
|
|
Hahahhaha :-)It also shows how does the time alignment work (by clicking the different horses at different points in time)....
|
|
I know the standard logic is that everything needs to be time-aligned, but essentially the lower the frequency seemingly the less critical time-alignment should be, at least on paper. I've heard of studies where it is suggested at low frequencies th...

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

While I feel like the layout of an orchestra is a sort of sacred thing, I will never the less put forth the following question :
Is the layout of an orchestra time aligned?
Whenever I attend a performance where classical music is played by an orc...

[quote user="CO"]But Romy, you also have the different channels in a curved array ? Whats the difference I know your's are time aligned but the Utopias must be as well.[/quote]
Collin, you are correct the Macondo and Utopia implement the same curved...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]
2) I do not think that you will be able to time-alight the upper bass channel but you need to wave-align them. Make sure that upper bass and MF tit the top of the wave at the same time. the w...

It is great that Wilson did anything like this, thank for
pointing out. I did not read the article passing 3rd paragraph and stooped
reading when they start taking about listening impressions. The listening
impressions from those people are truly ...

Last week and this weekend I been spending some considerable amount of time and efforts to do what I intended to do for long time – to finalize the Macondo’s ideas. What I mean is that with all Melquiades progress, the fundamental channel, with Injec...

Well, we do suffer from time misalignment during live concerts. I was a few times at the first rows in extreme left and the entire sound was practically unlistenable as the orchestra never sound synchronized. If was bad but it would be even mor...
