It's one of those cases where a manufacturer focuses too much on a specific design goal that sacrifices quality in other areas. I've seen that quite often with other speaker brands before.

Thx, appreciate that. Just take my SR8012 measurements and add 10% or so more power. I've got an interesting Integra review coming down the pipe in less than 2 weeks. Stay tuned...

It's a bit mind boggling that a company like B&W with all of their resources and PHD designers produced a speaker with a not so optimal XOVER. I suspected the tweeter lacked enough low end sensitivity hence why they crossed that mid over so high. They could have at least integrated a shallow...

Is there something wrong with the way I've been measuring electronics?

The waterfall plots and polar maps often seen in Audioholics' speaker reviews are colorful and visually interesting, but what can they really tell us about a loudspeaker's performance? In this article, we explain the meaning of these graphs. We try to help you understand what to look for in...

At the recent High End show in Munich, Mark Levinson introduced a new “integrated audio media player” called the No. 5101. Expected to launch in the fourth quarter of 2019, the No. 5101 is a CD/SACD player with built-in network streaming capabilities, digital inputs and outputs, and a...

Going live on our Youtube Channel tonight at 11:30pm EST to discuss Inflated Power Ratings in AV Receivers and how we can combat them.

I don't see an option to delete the donation crap either. Seems like a money making scheme by Change.org. I really just started it there as a focal point to get signatures. My apologies.

Uggh i wish it didn't have a donate option. I'm not even sure who gets that money or what change.org does with it. Thanks for supporting our movement though.

Max power consumption is very useful in determining how big of a power supply the unit has. You can then guesstimate ACD power from that number.

Agreed. That's why this is ALSO a call to action to consumers. Knowledge is power (no pun intended).

For far too long manufacturers have been inflating power ratings in their AV receivers and HTiB products. The FTC has failed consumers in keeping this problem in check! Audioholics is here to challenge BOTH manufacturers and consumers to demand more honest power ratings. Sign our Truth in...

I'm on the same page as Wayde here. I'm all for more diversity, but NOT at the expense of trashing well established characters just to prove a female version is "better". Wonder Woman was a very good movie and didn't rely on this tactic. Watch the Batwoman trailer and tell me that doesn't just...

Yes so now that's been replaced with young racist misogynist stupid young women, and transgenders.

Sony has announced pricing and availability information for its entire lineup of 2019 TVs. At the top of the heap is a 98-inch behemoth boasting 8K resolution and a fairly ridiculous $70,000 price tag. But the range also includes 4K OLED TVs at competitive prices, and a number of models that...

In market for a powerful 200 WPC amp? ATI has you covered with two completely different technologies . The AT4000 class A/B and the AT522NC Class-D amplifiers both fit into the 200-watt sweet spot and both have surprisingly similar specifications. The AT500 series is 25% cheaper and up to 50%...

Haha we do have a popcorn machine downstairs and thankfully a pause button to hit the kitchen for snacks ;)

If you turn pff the sub channel then LFE gets rerouted to the mains. That's a fact. It's possible some receivers will scale back LFE in those instances to not overload the main channels but i haven't seen that happen since the Yamaha DSP-A1.

This is the final installment in our ongoing look at the upcoming 5G revolution. We'll look at how our lack of privacy online began in the early days of Google and how it's used to manipulate us with the promise of personalization through behavioral data collection. We each get a unique Internet...

This sounds great but Audyssey like ALL room correction systems often cause more problems than they solve when running full BW correction. They have no way of differentiating room problems from acoustical problems in the speakers and make way too many assumptions as a result.
