    Speaker Sensitivity: Advertised vs Measured

    What matters is to have a standard. A speaker with a wider dispersion will sound louder in a room than a speaker with the same on-axis sensitivity but with narrower dispersion. So, if some "standard" room could be built and all speakers where to be measured in it at the designated...

    Revel F206 Tower Speaker Review

    I just updated my F35 scores/graphs (as Amir redid the scan a while ago). They have the same score (when rounded to 1 decimal), F35 does have a better bass roll-off and higher sensitivity, but a stronger directivity mismatch at the crossover region. Unsure of max SPL/compression/distortion and...

    Topping B200 Monoblock Amplifier Review

    It needs around 7.5V @4ohm for 200W, the Topping Pre90 can go to 8V (I didn’t do the math for 8ohm). But yeah, that’s what the high gain mode is for, which for real world use has no hindrance.

    Topping B200 Monoblock Amplifier Review

    The 193W doesn’t make sense to me from the graph; the marker for the Benchmark amp is further to the right but it’s 164W? EDIT: Amir's response; looks like the cursor is at ~150W @ ~112dB SINAD according to my efforts on WebPlotDigitizer.

    Nominate Your Favorite Track of 2024 (Contest)

    Not my heart, but 2024 was undeniably the year of Chappel Roan (she appeared like 3 times in Google’s Year in Search 2024). Limiting to released in 2024, that is “Good Luck, Babe!”.

    UGreen Max5c: $25 NC Headphone Review

    Mine just arrived (they sound good for the price, ANC is also decent). Microphone on iOS only works via wired. Wired does in fact default to Bass preset. I wish it would default to the currently selected preset, which could be a firmware upgrade (current firmware isn’t even 1.0, it’s 0.5.4)...
