    Omnidirectional speakers

    ADS did exactly this with their Model 10 digital Acoustic Dimension Synthesizer. All you needed was a stereo amplifier and a pair of decent speakers mounted above ear height, aimed at the ceiling and placed behind the listening position. If you can find a copy, the owner’s manual provided a...

    Does anyone produce a USB to USB DSP that I can put in between a streamer and DAC?

    I bet that you could use a laptop for this purpose. I use Equalizer APO and peace on a windows laptop and it works just fine as a streamer. I think APO can process 7.2 channels (maybe more) if you need that.

    revel concerta2 f36 vs kef q550

    Oops, I missed the part about the fried tweeters when I first read the OP’s post. That might be a problem, but maybe with patience a pair will show up on eBay or can be had from JBL

    If you can find a nearby speaker repair shop, you should be able to get the surrounds for all of the woofers and mids replaced for less than $200.

    Reviewer recommendations?

    How about Robert E. Greene? He has an in depth understanding of acoustics and has always been interested in loudspeakers that carefully utilize room interactions.

    Recommendations needed for a replacement for a miniDSP active crossover

    I should add that you will need a multichannel dac. I have used the inexpensive Gigaport with great results.

    Recommendations needed for a replacement for a miniDSP active crossover

    You might consider Audiolense XO since you use a PC. There is a bit of a learning curve but the results can be very good. Look for Juice hifi.

    1969-74 Dynaco A-25 speakers compared to modern designs?

    I still have a pair of EPI 400s somewhere in my loudspeaker museum. They are basically 4 of the 50s in each box and are (reasonably) omnidirectional. Also known as the poor man’s 1000s! They are pretty with subtle brass trim and very heavy.

    Are MBL omnidirectional speakers worth the $$$?

    Are MBL omnidirectional speakers worth the $$$?

    The word in the old days was that they needed 200W to sound great and 201W to melt the voice coil!

    Are MBL omnidirectional speakers worth the $$$?

    I’m using a Sanders Magtech which makes something like 900 Watts into 4 Ohms. It is loafing along in my system since I mainly listen to classical and jazz at sane levels

    I am thoroughly enjoying my 30 year old 101Bs with Audiolense dsp.
