[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I am planning to cover some of this in a video I would like to make. I promised to do “my audio during 2025.” I have recorded it twice already, but I feel that I still haven’t expressed what I really wanted to say. To be co...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] I never described
at my site “those moments” and I do not think that the value of the moments
could be understood from listening music. [/quote]

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]I read carefully what was expressed here, and I very much disagree with it. This has nothing to do with being “right” or “wrong”; I am absolutely not thinking in those categories. What you suggest is that an audio experienc...

[quote user="Paul S"]Bill has said that the ambience must be in the recording to begin with in order for it to work during playback. [/quote]
Yamaha creates ambience from anything, including radio transmissions from a studio, whi...

[quote user="Paul S"]I am not sure what it would sound like via an “enhanced system”, but
in any case, any “treatment” or “enhancement” of the sound of the playback
might or might not work for any particular recording.[/quote]

[quote user="Paul S"]Jarek, something we can't get around is the power involved in live Music. It is what it is, so if we want "live music" in our listening room, we have to simulate that power in "open space" in order to be able to hear the play...

Paul, my main challenge since the Dannoys has been to add spatial clues I need to start reading the music material better. Another issue is the lack of enough energy in lower to mid bass registers with orchestral music, I'm missing that "grand" ...
|
|
This is a separate issue from the RI, as far as I understand. In case of Dannoys, RI done with 2x 5" "woofers" per channel at a distance of 1.5m does give a feeling of a stronger bass but this is not what a good ULF would give. I'm still missing the ...
|
|
PS There was a question, I think from Paul, if the Yamaha will "dig" from LP's as well. I haven't had time to test much, but yes, it did manage to extract the reverb info from the LP's I've tested (I tried different labels/era/music). I haven't teste...

I have finally set up the reverberation injection. My DSP3000 turned out to have some problem (vanishingly low output), I hunted DSP100 and got a pair of Focal Twin Shape speakers as the RI (2x5" woffers + 2x 6" passive radiators + inverted dome ...

Either they decided to ignore the physics or I got the physics of rotating liquids wrong https://klaudio.com/kd-mgz-tt1-magnezar-turntable...

I'm 20+ years professionally in quantum science (quantum foundations and quantum information), I won't even open that video. To at least partially give back what I have learned here, I volunteer to educate anyone from GSC who wants to learn the basic...

Thanks Anthony! What immersive system have you been using? Do your immersive channels process the actual music? I'm going the Yamaha DSP path where according to Romy RI speaker quality doesn't matter much as they produce only auxilary "barking" sound...
|
|
Impressive system Anthony! May I ask a delicate question: How much +/- have you spent on your system? I'm asking out of pure curiosity to compare with prices of the garbage produced by the so called high-end industry. BTW, nice idea with active m...

Thank you Romy and others for the input! For the time being I will concentrate the efforts on the Yamahas.

Thank you! I’ve located anp paid for DSP3000. The RI speakers: what are your experiences/thoughts?I obviously miss bass energy with Dannoys. Logically, I should then look for bass capable satelites or this logic doesnt work?...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]If you would like to experiment with it do not rush to buy
the DSP-100 and there are many others and better Yamaha and not Yamaha units
that do the same. If you would like to I will give you a guide over them. The reason...

[quote user="Edgar="]Friend after friend leaves astonished saying how "dialled" the sound is and the system was literally slapped together via the path of least resistance just for proof of concept. Development ended there other than adding 2 more br...
|
|
[quote user="Edgar="]I think the issue is system power levels not F3. I think The efforts for implementing something under Dannoy is more toeards improving that not so much lowering f3.Dannoys open bottom end sounds really good. I'd be keen to preser...
|
|
I've been thinking how to counter your argument but looks like I cannot apart from a "majority vote" argument: Using sealed subs and pahse aligning them to Tannoy, below f3 there will be 3 membarnes in phase (Yannoy + 2x active SS) and one out of...
|
|
Edgar, very interesting idea. I see if I manage to get some extra amp and drive the SS like you say.
Also the idea of 15" Red + 2xSS sounds cool. Maybe someone has 15" Reds and could try (they are pricey)
But I still have one ...
|
|
Im not sure if you understoid me or me you. I was not talking about adding another cone to the reds in the same volume. But rather adding your bass modules with two scanspeaks, one active, one passive.I want to enjoy orchestral music too :) btw Giuli...
|
|
Edgar, now I understand what port you meant, the effective one in the Dannoys and the associated phase flip. I've never tried adding bass to a ported design, I'm rather learning here. I understand you have some experience with that? I did some si...
|
|
I'm listening near field (2m away) in a small, odd shaped space and they do give fun. The sound is somewhat compressed, lives between the speakers not spreading but on my list is to try to address it: bass modules, supertweeters (anyone selling Tanno...
|
|
Edgar, did you try augmenting Dannoys with ScanSpeaks? I don't know where did you get high order filters and ported enclousers from but it's not on my list. I do not plan to crossover Dannoys but run them in parallel with ULF. The reverb idea is very...
|
|
Thanks Paul, but it's much easier for me to order Scanspeaks 25W-8565-00 than chase that Tesla, which I've just done. I'll try two modules with 2 drivers each. ...

it was quite awful. I picked rel based on their "reputation". Never heard of Tesla apart from the swasticars....
|
|
With little time I have now, I tried Rel T9x woofer with Dannoys to see if I get anything I want. Not. I tried one T9x, summing both channels, positioned centrally between the Dannoys and fed from the B2 outputs. It produced a typical hifi on/off bas...

Spot on on the system surpassing the owner like children surpassing the parent. I did feel that several times, which is probably even documented here, and that was highly stimulative and even transformative. Too complex to understand at a given s...
