Lede If one is using stats, maggies or any other type of planar speaker the LEDE approach is the wrong way to go. A great deal of the open boxless sound of panels is due to the dipolar radiation pattern. Damping the rear wave takes away the "magic". Ideally a mix of absorbant, reflective and...

If you are still looking for Acoustats you might want to try "audiogon.com". The later models are probably better buys because of the improved interfaces.

ML's I'm an electrostatic owner (currently not ML's). IMHO you can't go wrong with any ML product. The curved panels do give more lateral dispersion than the Innersound's. Panels get rid of that boxy sound. They may not play as loud as some dynamic speakers but the ladies seem to like them...

After hearing some Magnepans in 1977 I have owned nothing but panels of one type or another. Three of my audio buddies have converted to panels. All my lady friends love the sound. They frequently ask me to increase the volume. Also, it is a charge when someone asks "what are those?". Although I...

I have been piping an audio signal from video through my rig since the early seventies. I have noticed the same sync problem with broadcast tv. It is particularly bad when the station is broadcasting a satellite fed signal.

<font color='#000000'>I must clarify. I am not asking for myself. I need a reasonably concise explanation for friend and neighbors who look to me as an audio guru. When I start talking about RMS and clipping and other factors I can see the glaze slide slowly over their eyes.</font>

<font color='#000000'>Could someone please tell me where I can find some onformation (on line information) referring to amplifier output and speakers. It is difficult when neophytes all believe that a &quot;100 Watt speaker&quot; can't be driven by a 200 watt amp. Or that those so called speaker...

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td> <font color='#000000'>I think you are correct. Some of the strange inductance values may just cause some amps to act in peculiar ways That will certainly make the amplifier sound different.

<font color='#000000'>If enough people are aware of the wholesale price drop only then might we see a drop in retail prices. Tell everyone you know even non audiophiles. I will. If enough people press the retailers maybe we'll see a retail price drop. If that happens &nbsp;maybe other cd...

<font color='#000000'>How about more panel type speakers. Magnepan, Eminent Technology, Martin Logan or Monsoon. How about Quad's? Although they are rather pricey. Monsoons have the spacious open sound panels are noted for. With their cone type woofers their placement is not so critical...

<font color='#000000'>I'm new here. I have been posting on Audio Review and AA. I must say this seems like a much nicer place. I have gone through most of the more recent posts and the attitude here is not as uptight as Audio Review and not nearly as frenzied as AA can be. Thanks for allowing me...

<font color='#000000'>The bass on them was the best bass from Maggies until the MG20's. I think part of the reason was because they had double ended drive (magnets on both sides of the diaphragm). The only current Maggies that have that are the MG20's. They have GREAT bass. All current Maggies...

<font color='#000000'>Yamahalover has a good suggestion. If the problem is in all your sources the problem may be the size of your room and the furnishings. A large overstuffed room will soak up sound. Combine that with relativly inefficient speakers and you will find yourself short of power...

<font color='#000000'>I don't know about where you live but here in the US TV's like yours are considered HDTV ready. They require the addition of a HDTV tuner in order to display HDTV. I imagine it would be similar at your location as HDTV uses different frequencies for transmission. Of course...
