    How NOT to set up speakers and room treatment ( Goldensound)

    This is the "best" visual video that I found on YouTube that will visually try to explain how sounds propagate in the room. It's targeted to the home studio professionals but I found it interesting.

    How NOT to set up speakers and room treatment ( Goldensound)

    Please watch the video and understand what GIK products do. His room CAN NOT be "reflection-dead" cause he uses hybrid panels, meaning absorber panels that have a scatter plate in front of it which reflect the sound back to the room. For your reference, mark 17:58. Also, others that are saying...

    Denon AVR-X8500H AVR Review

    Nothing muffled about AVR8500h in pure direct mode. Clear as a bell. ;):)

    $30K Budget - On the quest for my "end game" speaker

    How ignorant of me, the price is mentioned in the video (I just finished watching the whole thing). 60,000-65,000£ depending on the finish. :) What a bargain huh?

    $30K Budget - On the quest for my "end game" speaker

    Thanks, I didn't watch the video to the end but what I heard in the beginning (Phil Collins) was impressive! $60,000 is impressive as well. LOL

    $30K Budget - On the quest for my "end game" speaker

    Hello MKR, Just saw this video on YouTube about the new Meridian active speaker (DSP9) and all I can say is WOW! Even over YouTube and listening via my Sennheiser HD660S, the demo was very impressive. One of, if not the best I heard. You know that I'm a KEF proponent but if I was doing a...

    KEF and their slopping response, neutral ?!

    Yes, and the center channel is KEF reference 2 Meta. :cool: Interestingly, the Meta color scheme is not a perfect match to the old reference series. The Meta uni-q copper color is a few shades lighter.

    KEF and their slopping response, neutral ?!

    Hello BrokenEnglishGuy, I love your user name, that makes two of us ;). LOL. I understand that using EQ is an option, I just chose not to exercise this option. For the two-channel listening, I let my room treatments do all the heavy lifting.:) For home theater duty, AVR's Audyssey is...

    KEF and their slopping response, neutral ?!

    I don't want to sound like a hypocrite because I made subjective comments about other speaker brands (B&W comes to my mind) on this forum. Going forward I will try to have a more "politically correct" or use a more science-backed-up approach when describing my subjective experience cause my...

    KEF and their slopping response, neutral ?!

    I can't speak for KEF engineering as far as the tweeter built but I can provide you with my REW measurements and listening impression in MY room. Attached is the REW file showing KEF Reference 3 (non-meta) response. I will not comment on my measurements but will say that MLP is 8 feet and 6-7...

    Kef R Meta Series Release

    "But why do people buy Ferraris instead of Corvettes?" IMHO, that's not a good example. Apple for oranges comparison. If you want to use Ferrari, a better example would be why people buy Ferrari F458 Speciale vs F458 Italia.:);)

    ATC speakers / Monitors

    "My conclusion is that the room is 99% of the game." I conclude the same.

    ATC speakers / Monitors

    I remember this Dynaudio speaker that I was considering purchasing a long time ago. It had a similar midrange as ATC.

    ATC speakers / Monitors

    Not sure if this youtube video was shared before but it's nice to hear from the gentleman that does this for a living (I'm sure some of you guys fall in this category as well and my intent is not to put down anyone). ATC talk starts at 2:15 mark.

    ATC speakers / Monitors

    I've seen mastering rooms fitted with "Hi-Fi" speakers. B&W, KEF Blade 2, KEF reference, Revel Salon 2, Dynaudio Evidence, Egglestonworks and etc.

    ATC speakers / Monitors

    LOL, ok now that makes sense. It's not easy to conduct those experiments and we all know, things are about to go wrong. What was amusing to me is that ONLY one guy was sitting in the sweet spot and most of the time they spent on the laptops. The most vocal guy that was sitting to the left (in...
