    Revel F206 Tower Speaker Review

    It's not bleed over, I have measured this exact phenomena on my SB15's when measured individually. When you play a sine sweep without a filter and with a filter on this driver, the breakup is extremely noticeable, by ear, and by measurement. Here is a quick sim of the driver crossed at 2kz...

    Revel F206 Tower Speaker Review

    The mid woofer breakup not being suppressed is a bit disappointing. I believe this driver is the SB15 aluminum, which is known for its great performance, but also a nasty breakup mode if not properly controlled with a filter.

    Revel M105 Copy DIY build

    The Overhang is a non issue for modern fdm printers, and printing on it's side hides layer lines. Splitting it just creates more seems.... I've printed this waveguide several times with zero issues.

    What's the point in splitting up the model? Most FDM printers can print the whole thing just fine.

    Yes, the offset will effect it. Mount drivers flush to the baffles, and get a new xover board or modify the one you have. Otherwise, you will need to put the xover on the back of the speaker in a second chamber.

    1. Definitely go for a second panel to get a larger round-over. 3. Yes, a brace and threads. You will have to take the front guide off the tweeter, and the diaphragm will loosely sit on the driver, and a bracket will need to be made and installed. I 3d printed mine. 4. Design your speaker so...

    How to make quasi-anechoic speaker measurements/spinoramas with REW and VituixCAD

    I've only found success in exporting every measurement singularly, and renaming them to match the needed syntax for Vcad.

    HIFIMAN Susvara Headphone Review

    Amir, is there a reason you do not publish the standard deviation of frequency response when the headphone is placed in slightly different locations on the test rig? For example, plus / minus 5, 10, and 15mm in the x and y axis. Since everyone's face, head, and ears will create their own unique...

    HIFIMAN Susvara Headphone Review

    No, headphone sensitivity is not related to that. Number of traces in proximity to the magnet, how close the traces are to the magnet, stiffness of the diaphragm, and acoustic impedance are what determine sensitivity. "Dynamics" (as audiophiles define) and "resolution" are subjective, and likely...

    HIFIMAN Susvara Headphone Review

    Certain headphone engineers claim that thinner diaphragms and less dampening increase the dynamics and resolution of planar headphones. I don't think enough info from published studies exist to make a claim one way or another, but many enthusiast seem to believe it.

    HIFIMAN Susvara Headphone Review

    I had the susvaras for a stent, and have compared them to several headphones. The biggest negative to the susvara is it's ability to render vocals; not even EQ could fix it (which should be obvious when you look at the random and jagged nature of the mids). However, one thing that the susvara...

    I was thinking the same thing about the low end. It outperforms several of my 6.5" woofers, and almost matches the bass output of my Polk R200.

    A real DIY speaker, components and all.

    Bad. It would measure bad.

    End Game DIY Loudspeakers

    What are your listening needs? Unless you need a "perfect" speaker (which by the way, would have to be co-axial, which eliminates any speaker using Purifi, BlieSMa, etc.) for aerospace lab test, the difference between SOTA and non SOTA for human audio science have already been explained, tested...

    3D printing desktop speakers. Thoughts?

    Cabinet ringing is caused by frequencies lower than what would be canceled out by your proposed geometry. What works best is non-uniform bracings and non-parallel walls. And stuffing, of course.

    3D printing desktop speakers. Thoughts?

    I've done some extensive cabinet test prints on my P1P, and I have found PLA-tough printed at 40% cubic infill to have the best reliability, as well as price / time to performance. PETG at such a dense infill is almost impossible to print without serious gum-ups, and gyroid in general with any...

    How to make quasi-anechoic speaker measurements/spinoramas with REW and VituixCAD

    Awesome place to take a measurement! It's a bit overkill; you can get a great 0-180 degree GPM in a standard two car garage down to 200 hz, gated. Then, the single 10-200 hz measurement can be taken anywhere outside with now boundaries within ~50 feet.

    FIR for hypex fusion plate!

    I would imagine this would serve it's best purpose as a crossover phase correction tool, rather than have actual FIR crossovers.
