    Neumann KH 310A Review (Powered Monitor)

    Just my opinion, when using EQ to do room Correction and with subs, the one with better directivity usually sounds more natural

    Do Audio Speakers Break-in?

    break in as an effect itself is generalizing, nothing specific, point is that 1) freezing vs 20C isn't that much of a change, in a lot of places in winter, internal room heating on vs off already get that 2) everything changes in parameter after some initial burning in, but never settles on...

    Do Audio Speakers Break-in?

    well I don't think it's wise to just insist on breaking in is a real issue or thing with every single test being a "single" and "exceptional case", toole's controlled tests on audibility and their engineering department believes no meaningful/audible change at all and not surprised, only...

    Do Audio Speakers Break-in?

    Completely agree with it, the warming up and environmental changes affect the speakers a lot more than the “break in” do, differences are just more on inaudible minute change which day to day variances will overwhelm it, if breakin will be an issue, a windless temperature and moisture controlled...

    Amirm’s kh80 dsp did showed a cold and hot climate change in FR a lot more than any break in would do

    Do Audio Speakers Break-in?

    If you are purely referring "break in" as any change with use, then everything breaks in, including you and me, but then: 1) Once inside a cabin and not operating free air, no credible data can show any meaningful difference, let alone audible 2) Temperature and humidity have a way higher...

    Do Audio Speakers Break-in?

    Or I’ll put it this way, the theoretical burn in mainly says the spider needs the run into shape, it’s more or less like shoes, the first few minutes you wear it and walk, the bottom material gets first flexed enough on the point of deformation are more or less done in softening it up on true...

    Do Audio Speakers Break-in?

    I am pretty sure if any of those damages especially if coil is damaged it will show up as great FR deviation and distortions, as in the Behringer speaker he tested. Klippel is sensitive enough to detect the tiny speaker variations in the range our ears can't percieve, as in most measuring...

    Avantone Pro MixCube Monitor Review

    but for this thing, I do give it a pass for "not terrible", just that if it is indeed consistent unit to unit, I bet that awful FR is typical for a lot of consumer full range driver applications like those cheap BT speakers, phone speakers or those pc monitor built in etc..

    Genelec 8351B Review (Studio Monitor)

    IMO it’s just a more convenient to use high quality dac to not hold back the speaker, and since the digital AES out isn’t as easily Available as a good dac or easy to use with the multi input device (say, pc, tv and avr, streamer) so use a dac not degrading the Sam speaker is goal

    Genelec 8030C Studio Monitor Review

    I think the genelec stands are around $150 each? actually you could find anything sturdy enough and just put a box below and call it a day if budget is tight

    in theory, yes, but if it ended up not the sound you are looking for it's likely not the amp causing it

    理性派HiFi X5 Speaker Review

    Gave it fine as the on axis is not bad on flatness and surprisingly good directivity on the design. Plus it’s price it don’t seems much should be demanded. Ok I am surprised to see traditional Chinese characters in here too so take my opinion with grain of salt

    Subwoofer/DAC for Genelec 8020d or 8030c

    just the normal sweep measurement, if you are concerned about bass frequency, limit the sweep to something like 10-100hz and do the sweep at different levels (if you got external volume, use that). so say, do one measurement at 75db SPL and another at 90db SPL, the output graph should have an...

    Subwoofer/DAC for Genelec 8020d or 8030c

    No idea for that, would you like to try measuring the bass frequency in rew with various levels to see did the distortion spikes up or even the level clips at some point?

    Choice home studio speakers

    Actually the pc source is still hardware eq but for mixing you get the extra in and out stage though. If so get rew in a laptop for measurement and hardware EQ on the room mode fixing side

    Genelec 8030C Studio Monitor Review

    I used to disable all windows sound effects so it don't do so, a mild thump does occur once it goes out of sleep though

    Choice home studio speakers

    depends on your source really, if you use PC then the free EQ APO and a $79 UMIK-1 is good and easy enough to use for basic room calibration. also, integrating the studio minotors with the high pass including subwoofers are as easy as it can get, set the same sensitivity, plug in the cables, put...
