Thank you @amirm As much we may understand Eric’s point of view that a minor cabinet leak can, and will change the port turning, and measuring on a different axis will affect the measurement, I feel that the owner’s reaction was unnecessary. The approach to critical feedback can be managed in...

The power of towers! Let the real reviews begin!

Doesn't exist. @jackocleebrown sorted that out too.

Not bad, not bad. @jackocleebrown Now people will finally understand why there's reason a bookshelf speaker sounds better than your bluetooth speaker the size of a carton of milk, and what the floorstander with multiple larger woofers offers. You, me, @amirm , @Sean Olive know that we can't...

YHM!

The manufacturers move where market goes. I recall a video or talk where Sean Olive commented that the home audio business is about 10% of Harman’s business. Some astute readers may be able to give a link; when I recall or find it, I will reference it. A large part of Harman is business to...

What kind of soundbar are you looking for? One without deep and/or loud bass?

Samsung already has one. US$999 IIRC complete with wireless rear speakers AND subwoofer. The TOTL model is the 11.1.4 Atmos equipped HW-Q990C, released in 2023. @Kal Rubinson Are you able to get early access to the Q990D of 2024, for a review for Stereophile?

This is an ancient piece based on the 7506 Hopefully their new model is better: https://pro.sony/en_PH/products/headphones/mdr-mv1

Yes it’s a shame that’s the case. Neither this or the Era 300 can be connected directly to a TV or HT system. You need a Sonos soundbar for that… Reference: Sonos.com Also interesting how the raggedy response, perhaps NOT due to resonances, but interference between multiple drivers doesn’t...

I keep getting private messages about my reference system. Unfortunately the drivers are now difficult to source worldwide, since they are over 10 years old and difficult to purchase in single units. Apart from the jagged dip at 5KHz due to diffraction of the baffle with the tweeter, I'm quite...

They were one of the first drivers manufacturers to combine ultra long throw eg. >1" excursion by BL 70% critera with low inductance motors. Here's the frequency response of the my LMS-R 15" in a 2 cu foot box. Here's the harmonic "structure" thanks to the low Le(x) motor: You could use it...

@bigjacko The tweeter is the SB19ST-C000-4 Yes you are right- the dip is diffraction related; the clue is that there is an on-axis dip, but it doesn't exist in the off axis. As you probably know, if I were to correct for it, and completely flatten the on axis, then I'd get peaking in that 5-7...

Spheroidal cabinets are excellent in terms of diffraction management. Exhibit A: raw response of a 6" midrange driver, in a 8" spheroidal cabinet, measured at 10 degrees intervals, at 1m. 5ms gate. 1/24 octave smoothing. Tuning applied: @René - Acculution.com State of the art, don't...

These were excellent woofers. And near state of the art. I have a pair of LMS-R in 2 cu ft sealed cabinets. And very difficult to characterise/measure; simply because they play insanely loud. It was a shame when the company went under. Just goes to show that a technically superior product...

Here’s measurements of the Micro

@sweetchaos I like most of your recommendations, but as has been pointed out, being far far away in lands down under, the value proposition is, well, upside down, when shipping costs can cost as much as the product. As you may know, I design my own So yes, I’ve measured a few for internal...

Well this is how Brent measured his sample: Reference: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rJkw0Z2X17oO19W7lxQrjntOceEqKeB9/view Others, with thanks to Brent Butterworth: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Rku7tKIhn_bdbgd3cLaqEta39olZCpxzbJ0tp2YoeNw/edit?pli=1#gid=0 Here's now my sample...
