I am finishing us to setup my listening room and I have my PP2000 blowing up sometimes (go to protection bypass mode) when I use powerful SS amp for ULF along with Melquiades and the rest of the systems driver from one single PP2000. So, I guess I wo...

This year is the first winter that I live with this new listening room. Last winter the playback was up and I still was playing with minor arrangements of my ULF channels, cable and a few other things. For many months I do pretty much nothing with my...

I feel that the correct objective of home music listening should be to reproduce as closely as possible what one can enjoy in a great concert hall with great musicians.Thus, I have been a advocate for surround processing for years. As stereo replaced...

That's what I'd do. Maybe a High School or Music School that already has a room for allowing the kids listening to recorded music. If they hadn't the means for LP playback, I'd get them some sturdy and decent sounding TT.Sometimes I feel th...

Romy, you've mentioned that the father and son team did a good job of balancing insulation vs. ventilation in the vaulted ceiling over your listening room. While it might work to +/- replicate what they've done, at least in principle, perhaps you ne...

That is what I thought you were going for in the first place:You have the basement right under your listening room, and those wonderful Aura 18" woofers...You can place them sideways (very important) on some kind of vent that shoots into the room...

Haralanov, I do not think that the “information” that you found is indicative of anything. If they changed coils and diaphragms on their LOMO drivers (and I presume that if they change the diaphragms then they did not keep the LOMO original suspensio...

Yes, there is still a resonant cavity under the raised-floor listening room. However, this is how pros deal with it, under the circumstances.Somehow, I was thinking that the house was older than the "TJIs" shown in these photos. If so, then this mu...

Just add a pair of small Ino Audio speakers and your LTS associated setup is done. :-)http://www.faktiskt.se/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=8994&list=fullSeriously, I'd pester the very reluctant manufacturer (former LTS head hon...

hi jezzie!i think, in case of thunder its only the "crack" that comes from the lightning, the "boom" is just the "echo". maybe this is interesting for you. as we can see, not only bad electricity destroys good sound, its also the changes in the air i...

Romy, francley the biggest reason that I'm very happy you moved to your new place is, you have a very big listening room-like mine-so speaker placment and search for DPoLS wuold be more helpful to me. I hope so!Anyhow congradulation for new place.Arm...

Alex,I tend to aim for Q's around 0.5-0.6 for my sealed boxes, but thats only because I prefer my listening in smaller nearfield rooms. If you have a much larger room, you *might* be able to get away with something closer to 1.the 18W works fin...

Audio Sonar Acoustic Levelling (ASAL)
As an engineer, I’ve been intrigued by the various room treatment systems out there…most of which are sound (excuse the pun). My own 4-way front-loaded playback system is very dynamic…and suitable room...

Anyone have a clever way to diffuse floor reflections (here is radical method db-systems.fr) in a room that is not dedicated listening environment.My daughter spread out an enormous playmobil plastic collection the other day in the area between me an...

Thanks, guys. I got a few direct emails with various ideas. I am thinking to go in June, to escape the pre-Olympic rash. I do not know when and where, juts collection sensations at this point. I have no problems with non-audio part of the trip, end ...

[quote user="steverino"]Well, the circle is unbroken. Romy started his audio journey in a basement somewhere tinkering with this and that. He rose for a time into the light and now has descended once more. However this time it is called the Bunker. W...

N-set, I do not think that we from America would be able to talk about 3-phase or to share any 3-phase experiences. We in US do not have 3-phase in residential neighborhood, in fact it is prohibited by code and if you want to have it then it is very ...

I have written in past that for some mystery reasons my PP3000+, and I presume all other PP3000+, do adversely affected by switching power supplies in the feeding line. I have PP3000+ and older PP3000 and both of them works wonderfully, one on main l...

Nope, it is not my listening room but I it is a very nice looking listening room, I hope to post it here. The room has very nice dealing with first reflections, ceiling and many other aspects. I wish the right speaker were further from the wall. ...

Ah, Texas, they are truly helpless people. They did not reach the level of humans evolution when such a fine things as bass time alignment would matter. They need to experience an influence of the Renaissance first.... Seriously, a nice looking list...

I was reading a few days back a review of very popular audio reviewer of a very popular speaker. I could name the person and product but I do not want to give to them even negative publicity as they both are idiots. Anyhow, the review wax the poetry ...

Hi [quote user="Romy the Cat"]…. The “live” bass never “dynamic” and ... Rgs,Romy the Cat[/quote] ?????? I don't understand what you mean here, Romy? To me "live" bass ( like when listening to an orchestra ) is much more dynamic than any reproduced b...

Hi, I'll be out in SF next week, any recommendations on interesting audio types to visit? I would be very interested in listening to reasonably-intelligent reasonably-efficient (i have small listening room) non-horn set-ups??Thanks for any tips...
|

Apologies for blurredness: room is very dark hence long exposure times.At listening level. Note the driver is off, hence light at the centre.Side view. Note the larger horn can move in the horizonal plane to time-align it with the S2. Back chamber is...

Romy. I have seen no info on your walls or seating position except 6.5 feet from enclosures. Back walls behind the listening position could also be a problem with room acoustics. Is there any foam panels on back walls? any diffusers? Solutions a...

I have no experience with bass horns, but I suppose that any sound source into a given size room can excite its modes, hence a big bass horn or a line array of boxed woofers can be equally annoying in that regard. So if the idea of using horns is to ...

Below is how my midbass horns feel in my listening room user normal lighting if evening listening. The horn look a bit too dart but they are the same density as the walls in the room. The horns feel darker because the Triangular wall is all white, fr...

Romy,
I value your input so don’t pull out so quickly.. I was expecting your reaction though.
I,m not the 'typical Audio Moron' type, just planning ahead of time because remodeling is involved. Imagine YOU were forced to move into this room with yo...

Come on, I do not prohibit you to post, do whatever you want. I just say that with objective to make you playback to play The Deep Purple you won’t find neither understanding what I am saying nor any common sense in audio generally. Yes, if you devel...
