One of my major concerns when looking for a loudspeaker system is it's ability to hit the required volume level(s), across the required frequency range, without compression or excessive distortion. I've explained it before, but I have a decent amount of experience with PA systems and "live"...

Pretty simple question. Does anyone have a CAD model of this waveguide, or have one and would be willing to make a simple model that shows the internal geometry? I've been wanting to experiment with adding midrange ports to it, so that I can use a higher tweeter crossover point and still have...

Theoretically, whatever issue is present on the previous circuit could be present on that second one. But, the chances of that are really not high. I don't know much about Genelec's stuff, but it sounds like a design or software defect with the sensitivity at this point. If there's a sensitivity...

Agreed. The only thing connected is power, so it's really the only potential cause here. Try putting it, even if only temporarily, on the same plug as the sub and other monitor that does work. It could be that something on that circuit (or wiring, or plug or whatever) is causing interference...

Yes indeed. These are designed to fill an auditorium. I wouldn't want to use these in a home scenario when speakers like the M2, JBL 700-series, and Danley synergy horns exist. But, these would make for one crazy good movie theater sound system. Shame most theaters probably won't use them, or if...

I think so? I haven't seen them in person, but from my looking at the spec sheets you should be able to, not to mention that MAPP XT allows you to put the 1100-LFC and VLFC together in an array. My assumption is that you can mount them together, though for most PA use you'd want an array of...

So, looking at the design and specifically driver compliment: This looks like basically the X80 (2x 12", 1x 4" Comp. Driver on a horn, though a different looking one than on the Astrya, claimed 55 Hz - 18 kHz, ±6 dB) On top of the 2100-LFC (21" sub, claimed operating frequency range down to 30...

Then in that case, Dirac Live Bass Control is not applicable. It specifically targets optimizing systems with subwoofers. An ideal servo control setup could be useful in that case, but honestly the two technologies are not really comparable as they have fundamentally different goals. I also...

I presume by "Motion feedback assisted bass", you mean "Servo Control", like what Rythmik does on their subwoofers. Servo control (ie, what you appear to call "motion feedback", is when you devise a system that can monitor the position of the woofer cone, and adjust the amplifier's output in...

(The quoted post responded to OP's "we end up eq'ing (trinnov) - something that already has a lot of dsp eq on it." OP seems to be of the opinion that the speaker's built-in DSP will impact or negatively effect their ability to do EQ with their Trinnov. I understand how someone could have this...

The 705 / 708 powered versions have been measured and performed pretty well. Not Genelec good, but unlike Genelec's coaxial monitors they can actually get loud. However, the 70Xi models don't seem to measure as well, even with the required JBL processing. The 70Xi models (The ones without built...

You want the speaker to focus on correcting the directivity and frequency response of itself. That way your system processor can focus on just correcting for the room and tone-shaping EQ. This is why active speakers have become so popular: They allow the factory to calibrate each speaker's...

Here's the program that runs on my Biamp TesiraForte AVB TI DSP. Lots of sources, lots of destinations. My main speakers (Kef Q100) are powered by a Crown CTs 1200 (turned WAY down), with balanced connections to the DSP. The Subs (JBL 550P) are connected by unbalanced RCA connections. The...

To address your original post: If your amp delivers the volume you want, then you are good. Adding a subwoofer crossover will help a little bit in terms of reducing the load on the main speakers, and shifting it to the subwoofer, which will provide a sonic benefit (in theory). However, those are...

If you want to going digital all the way through, then the JBL SDP-58 has Dante output capabilities, supposedly. You could then feed that in to a DSP of your choice (Qsys, Tesira, Dante+DSP amps...), over Dante and out to whatever your system uses (Dante amps, analog amps, active speakers, etc.)...
