I should be a newbie for asking this question: is there any reason to use LFE for music? For Blu-Ray and SACD in particular I have never used LFE. "E" is for effects, naturlich.

How about the Saint John Passion by the same forces? Plus a theological intro to the piece: https://wolfmueller.co/bachs-st-johns-passion-a-quick-start-guide/

"If it's not audible then the issues it was counteracting weren't audible either." Unless I am missing something basic, this does not make sense. If something being cancelled out is audible before cancellation, then it and the cancelling signal should not be audible at all. The idea is that...

Thanks for starting this thread. Here is a link to a not-too-long discussion of the Matthew Passion, originally sung for Good-Friday Vespers: https://brightmorningstar.org/saint-matthew-passion/ I would like to point out an historic performance by the Bruno-Kittel-Chor and the Berliner Phil...

What are "Shirley stereo errors"? That term is new to me. TIA.

I imagine that bass freqs would sound very different with Dirac ART. Would be more than curious to hear from someone who has used it.

Amir, Please post a photo of your baby.

Am I reading the driver components graph correctly? It would appear that the lower woofer -the dashed line - is effecting the crossover with the tweeter? And Amir measured harmonic distortion with the bottom woofer only? Strange. The 2.5 design uses the upper woofer to crossover to the tweeter...

I think we need to know if there is a rule of thumb for the diffuser area / room volume.

I'm a bit confused about these crossovers. They appear to be used to protect the compression driver when used with Crown power amps. I wonder if there are any passive crossovers so that the clone M2s could be used with a single amp.

Mille mercis, M. Kirkwood. A mic boom up to 17m high is really necessary where you recorded. I assume you used two omnis. Even more interesting is the active participation of the organist. Since the organ loft is the worst place to enjoy good sound quality, M Isoir was able to hear how his...

I just listened to Zimerman's 2022 CD recording for DG of several Szymanowski pieces. Zimerman doesn't carry his personal piano on tour, but a keyboard modified to his liking. I seem to remember that it struck the strings in different places from a standard Steinweg. Most of the pieces were...

M. Kirkwood, I see that you are responsible for most of the CDs of Isoir's complete Bach. The CDs show recording dates from 1975 through 1991, a rather long time ago. I wonder if you would share your thoughts about the most successful recordings, those that more faithfully convey the acoustic...
