    Behringer Truth B2031A - how to flatten it with the switches in the back only

    In my review & mod of the speaker, most people liked my tinkering to make it better, but some "understanding" souls told me I know no engineering or that I simply got a broken speaker. Well, I bought two more! With 3x B2031a purchased each separately over the course of 2022, I have a good view...

    Creative Sound Blaster G3

    Hi guys, I wanted a small device for digital/analog audio measurements so I bought Creative Sound Blaster G3. It has Line-in and mini-Toslink Optical inputs. I used Topping D10s and REW to do some testing: Line-in performance is quite underwhelming, but what surprised me is that the digital...

    Importance of SPL-Response Linearity

    I keep looking at these graphs in Erin’s reviews and thinking these measurements deserve more discussion. Doesn’t a lot of difference hear suggest that the speaker’s dynamic response is poor?

    Class D vs tube at the listening position

    After recently purchasing a New (Very Old) Stock Audio Research amp from a store and noting how I subjectively liked it in comparison with my existing amp (March Audio P502 Hypex), I thought I would take some comparative measurements at the listening position to look for any differences...

    REW-like app for mobile (Android/iOS)

    Hey all, In another thread, y'all might be convincing me to invest in a minidsp UMIK-1 measurement microphone. I'm thinking about one advantage of a USB mic: portability. Could a smartphone use the UMIK-1 and its calibration profile? If so: Is there a recommended app for iOS/Android that's...

    Measurement MacBook Pro Output (Newbie)

    hello, I want to measure my MacBook Pro headphone output with my ADI-2 Pro using the REW software. This is the first time I measure something and I'm a beginner. My question is: Can I use a simple 3.5mm jack to XLR cable for this or would that be a problem because that is unbalanced to balanced...

    In IEMs - Is there a scientific proof that BA Timbre is a real thing? What about "Speed"?

    This whole topic is getting annoying. I don't need people to repeat the same facts about different technologies of drivers, Planar\BA\DD etc.. But can someone actually prove that there are differences beyond FR? An actual audible proof or something that impossible to refute? Debates about this...

    Behringer Truth B2031A - how truthful is it? (review / modding)

    I bought one speaker out of curiosity. I wanted to see the value the speaker delivers for just $199. What a great first impression unboxing and taking it apart! These things are designed (thanks, Genelec!) and built (thanks, Behringer!) really well: the cabinet is dense and solid, the driver...
