    Disney+ Gearing Up to Take on Netflix

    I agree with you, especially since I still have Frontier FIOS and it has channels/programs currently not available on any streaming service. I'm bummed out that Daredevil was cancelled by Netflix because of Disney. Now even YouTube is offering pay streaming content. If cable companies want to...

    Emotiva vs Rotel

    Sadly I've owned a variety of Emotiva amps, most recently the XPR-1's (which I loved) but none of them lasted more than 5 years except the old MPS-1 but even 1 of the 7 modules blew out after about 6 years of ownership. Emotiva claims their latest series of amps with their modular construction...

    Bose: Legit Audio Company or Slick Marketing?

    LMAO the jig is up. It was a stealth marketing piece for Bose but you were too smart and figured it out. Of course the accompanying YouTube video where we dissed them for not being audiophile must have really put the whole endeavor over the top. Now if only I could actually get them to pay us...

    Why I dislike traditional bass management

    It's not recommended because it takes more care than most consumers are able and/or willing to expend on it to make them work. I essentially turn my sealed subs into ported responses by increasing the slope of the HPF to match that of my ported designs. One thing you have to be sure of is to...

    Why I dislike traditional bass management

    I've got a combo of sealed and ported subs in my system. The key to getting them to all play nice below the tuning of the ported subs is to adjust the HPF slopes and sometimes Fc of the subs. I did this on my 2 Velodyne DD15+ subs and you can see how well the integration is with my ported...
