    Power cable tech talk and a little help for Amir at Audio Science Review

    A true Designer, Engineer, Scientist or simply a person wanting knowledge would try to "understand" the differences between how Danny and Amir come to their conclusions. Danny seems intent on being a simple salesman with some engineering/electronics background, but never someone neutral or...

    What Budget Speakers Do You Enjoy?

    My choice, would be the early 2000s era Advent AS2 speaker. I got at Goodwill for literally $9.99 each.....;) Relatively flat response, will play quite loud and never annoying. Vifa tweeters! It does it all reasonably good and gets bass down into the mid 30s range.

    Power cable tech talk and a little help for Amir at Audio Science Review

    Guys!! I mean face it, Danny is a Salesman FIRST. He is trying to actively protect his business. He has zero reason to prove anything, nor ever will. Mild "insults", a lot of techno babble, and condescending comments are ALL you will get from him. He is not able to prove anything, he never...

    Bose 901 Series VI Active Equalizer Measurements

    I am not sure if that tells me more about the actual sound of the speaker or your notions about bashing Bose as a company and name.;);) I have heard them randomly over many years set up wrongly and so on and just very recently at a friends, and "Horrified" and "How bad" would never even come...

    Bose 901 Series VI Active Equalizer Measurements

    I mentioned earlier in the thread about having a friend with 901s. Jaw dropping would not be my description, but would agree, so much better than some/many claim. In fact I would conjecture, some may not have even heard them in actuality OR heard them set up completely wrong or without the...

    Bose 901 Series VI Active Equalizer Measurements

    Just recently heard a pair. Never owned them.........of all things a friend has a pair!! FAR better than the sound I expected. In fact not even close to horrible. A huge soundstage and a very pleasant but not highly detailed soundscape. Fairly decent bass for a speaker that in person is...

    KEF R8 Meta Dolby Atmos Speaker Review

    I "think" the impication, is that in some implementations speakers such as this, Frequency response being ideally flat, may not matter in actual use, nor even give the most ideal sound in actual usage............ Other stuff such as distortion of course directly relates. Not sure I...

    KEF R8 Meta Dolby Atmos Speaker Review

    I guess not bad for sure....BUT... $1,600 a pair for what is basically 2 quite small speakers......Not sure I would call that "Great"?

    Stereo Crosstalk Elimination (reduction) Par Excellence!

    assuming you are talking the Polk method..... Not sure how it can. The recordings (MOST normal pop/rock/country etc) and intended TO have Crosstalk, so by eliminating it at the speaker/playback end you are effectively changing the way the sound is based on a misconception. Sure it can sound...

    Klipsch RPC1080 LCR Review

    This type of speaker (Specialized In wall/ceiling design) you really need to "Hear it" to know how it will be perceived subjectively.

    Topping PA7 Plus Amplifier Review

    Cinching ends were never made to be used with RCA connectors. I agree RCA is not the best, but not based on using a non standard connector, that causes the issue itself.

    M-Audio BX8 D3 Monitor Review

    I think you are reading FAR too much into measurements alone. Doubtful you would hear any of the issues with this speaker. While not perfect, I am sure it sound fairly good. Listening matters more at times, than simply looking at a chart...... I have had revelations with speakers that should...

    JBL AC25 Speaker Review

    The Tweeter Impedance AND distortion are quite high between 4-6 Khz or so, and the output is fairly LOW at that point. (Amirs Measurements) Does that give a hint as to what could be wrong? JBL shows around 12-15 ohms in that region, Amir found it between 40-63 ohms....?? These are very high...

    The Truth About Music Streaming

    I love reading many of the "blowhards" on audio forums claiming "I KNOW WHAT I HEAR"..........clueless to how human hearing and perception all work together. All "we" (as humans in general) know is what we THINK we are hearing.

    JBL AC25 Speaker Review

    my church does angled down about 45 Degrees side fill speakers (Near the ceiling) near the front and some almost midway back. But again far bigger than these. The main arrays are just multiples of the side arrays, with like 6 instead of 1.

    Another guy on Youtube going to visit Danny down in texas....

    Honestly its not a "bad" speaker, but simply very over-priced for what it is. A decent although quite small 3" full range driver, that has fairly good mids and so on, but not worth even close to a thousand for a fully finished model. As a mid only driver from maybe 700--3 to 4 khz it would work.

    Another guy on Youtube going to visit Danny down in texas....

    As long as there are audiophiles that have very little understanding of how human hearing works, there will be a market for this silly stuff. I have been in forums where many guys seriously believe, they have superior hearing and have almost no understanding or belief in how our mind factors...

    Arendal 1961 Center/Monitor Speaker Review

    I think the only potential issue, may be the lower sensitivity of this design. I would imagine somewhere in the 83-84 db region. Where most typical MTM or 2.5 way are closer to 88-90 db
