    REW with Wiim?

    Is there anyway to use REW with Wiim? Trying to figure out how to incorporate room EQ solution with Wiim and just can’t wrap my brain around how it could be done, but maybe I am over complicating Thanks

    Thanks! Yup, was aware of these. They are apparently very good. If I get a chance to hear them will certainly do so. But darn, they are BIG

    I am sure of it! Though being overseas makes a demo a bit difficult, but not impossible.

    A web site designer AJ is not. Nor is he widely known in HEA circles, nor does he want to be! And as I stated in another response, he is absolutely an audio objectivist and designs based upon measurements. I am sure if you contacted him directly he would happily answer all of your questions.

    AJ is purely a measurement based designer, so I am sure there are measurements. I will check and get back to you. They are smaller than the JBLs (which are quite large). As to an evolution of Linkwitz, I know AJ is a big fan of SL and his designs (as am I ), so maybe an evolution, but you...

    Understood and well said. Let me state it differently … I am referring to dispersion. Some speakers are designed with different dispersion characteristics, regardless of room. This is what I am referring to by ”large” or “small” soundstage. But yes, for sure the sound can absolutely be...

    First, a bit about the speaker … Top ribbon is a super tweeter, then large horn loaded ribbon is mid range. Going down further is the cardioid/dipole woofer, and then a sealed sub on the bottom. Rear driver is for ambiance that can be activated with Hypex remote. There are three modes in fact...

    To start … Some pics of my 590s and the “mystery” active … And please don’t judge the actives by the looks. These were some “Franken“ speakers as they have affectionatley become known by myself and the designer as he cobbled them together not as a final effort, but as a way that I could...

    Thank you @Newman , I appreciate that. My response to you was also a bit more direct than I intended after re-reading, please accept my apologies (was a very busy day when I responded to your query o_O)

    Folks, can we all just move on please? Again, I intended to respond to Newman, I just didn’t have time when the request came across the wire. As I stated to clevergirl in a PRIVATE DM (that seemed the polite way to handle it), I am very busy with my day job and even I would need to review all...

    I will not dignify this with a response except to stick to the purpose of the thread. I auditioned Genelec and while they were very good, I preferred other speakers (passive and active), not being abrasive towards a specific brand. My subjective opinion based upon experience, simple as that.

    Correct @MattHooper … first audition (dealer) was terrible. Then heard them at AXPONA and they were indeed quite nice

    Completely disagree with above statements. Wide dispersion capability is not a ghost. On the Aeris, the dipole has EQ via the Wavelet (or Trinnov :D), so certainly not a nightmare (but without the EQ, you are correct it would indeed be problematic)
