    WHARFEDALE DIAMOND 9.5 Review

    Note sure what the market price for them is, but if i remember correctly it would be something like $400 USD, unless you can maybe get them on special. But thats only guessing everything is a little more expensive in NZ where I live :-)

    which are better the iQ9 or the iQ90?

    in my opinion any speaker with a base has got better isolation as long as it has been designed properly. And kef do design things properly so i would expect you get better base isolation with the IQ90's than with the IQ9. Then again i have listened to the IQ9 and they were pretty good but i have...

    And dont forget that when you are listening to speakers you will 90% of the time not be using their full power potential anyway as your ear drums will explode :eek: (well not actually explode but you get the idea :rolleyes:) The human ear hears volume on a logarithmic scale, this means...

    "mid range speaker" too "money no object speaker"

    Just curious thats all i am an electrical engineer (or about to be anyway a few weeks away from graduating) the thought of some calculations or new measurement equipment excites me more than anything :D An accelerometer is a good idea. I can source one and program a microcontroller fairly easily...

    Hi, welcome ok lets start of slow. Yes you will need an amp of sorts AV receiver is the best bet. Normally speakers do not have any amps in them unlike the logitec computer speaker stuff. They will sound heaps better but you have to remember that they will not produce the same amount of bass as...

    6 ohm PSBs with 8 ohm Yamaha Receiver

    do these settings actually change the internal elecronics (by that i mean, a switch which changes i dont know the circuit path with a mosfet switch or something) or is it just the temperature cut off coefficient which gets altered in software on a micro?? any one know :)

    Speaker placement question

    hang in there my friend :) ok lets see why not place the couch a little further forward and get some small stands for the surrounds and place them in the newly found gaps made by the couch being moved forward. Also if you want place the 2 back speakers behind the couch on 2 extra stands. Good...
