    Greetings, How much credibility and weight and consideration do you give to your spouse/friend about how your speakers sound?

    Hello, This dawned on me tonight and I may have shot myself in the foot. 1. I Asked my wife to help me. I asked her if she could sit in the listening chair, close her eyes and point to where she thinks the music is coming from. 2. I played Witney Houston, and Led Zeppelin ( Black Dog, Stairway...

    Driving inefficient speakers (82.5db, 4 Ohms) on AVR.

    I have a Marantz SR5013 and two rather "ineffecient" Nubert speakers 82.5db/1m@ 4Ohms. (nuBoxx B-40) For the AVR it says in the specs it can drive 185W for 2x speakers at 4Ohms, and of course less the more speakers are connected. Now, I don't have any issues with this setup currently, yet I...

    So we don't have many spins for dipoles and bipoles. Panels more or less don't fit in the Klippel. So I am wondering if some of you folks can take the data from Amir's tests and show the resulting directional plots and response for in room results along with what Harman score such a thing...

    DIY speakers

    I really wanted to try the new MD60N-6 dome mid from SB Acoustics. I was looking at it for a while and I hoped it will have a discount at some point but no such luck. I then decided to buy it and build a pair of tower speakers. For the low end I chose the MW19P-8 woofer as it had great reviews...

    I have been reading for hours and I have a question: I have tried the Cyrus Soundkey DAC/AMP with the Samsung Note 8 and it is excellent for music but the Note 8 sends phone calls to it's own built-in speaker/earpiece. I have also found out that the Samsung Note 8 comes with these USB-C...

    Hi, I'm going to get some powered bookshelf speakers with subwoofer but I'd like to control the volume separately for the speakers and sub. Is there some pre-amplifier with this option? or passive volume knob controller with two knobs each for speakers and sub separately? Thanks
