I probably should of stated further not only am I not an audio expert, but my understanding of technicalities with Watts, volts, amps, and whatever else that's involved isn't really there; Maybe I'm below basic meaning I didn't go to school for this, but know how to hook up speakers and have other basic understandings, But when it comes to the technical electrician/audio side of things I think I'm 'SOL', my comprehension of tech side of things isn't great either.
I DO have interest in home audio I plan to do my own home theater when the time comes, and I have more space to do it. ( Hopefully moving early next year..)
Matthew J Poes, I Read your post, Some of it makes sense to me, I'm sure it makes sense to many and is informative to people, I wasn't going to say anything or reply and just say 'f- it, I Don't understand things so why bother,(if I did this, this post would bother me for the rest of time//i.e stress me out)..because I Do want to understand but Have a hard time with it(comprehension). I wish I had gone to school for this stuff knowing now this is a main interest of mine.
-To be honest I don't understand the volt thing, That's one thing my view on your post keeps coming back to(because not understanding it)
- also, swings, or.. volt swings,
- I Still don't understand phase well, I know it's a direction of something.. I know my sub has a phase switch but don't know much about it, I think it can affect the sound in certain situations or with more than one sub(?)- not sure. I usually just keep it on '0'
I've used and own a pair HB-1 MK2 Horn Bookshelf Speaker, I plan to use them in my future HTR, as BACK L+R or maybe REAR L+R. depending on the setup of the room etc..
I Can't post links yet, But if you search for the speaker, google: HSU Research, then look on there for the owners guide/manual you'll find it.
if you look in the manual, these dip / or go into 4 ohm minimum. 6 ohm nominal. I always thought nominal meant average or overall..
I see in the manual it says:
Sensitivity: 92 dB/1m/2.83V rms, half space - the 2.83V like what you're talking about, when I've seen this I've just skipped it b/c I Don't understand it. So.. It's more complex than I've been allowing or thinking.
Without having gone to school for these things or having knowledge already about volts with other audio technical stuff, I Feel stuck to continue my way(not that I want to), pretty much guess work then with the more complex tech stuff involved.
Thanks for your time, and any other future help.
