I measured a good noise floor on the 2x4 and will publish test results in my formal review. I had no noise issues at all and I'm a stickler for that.

Yes the UMM-6 is good for the price but I believe its only accurate down to 18Hz. I had Dayton send me one last week so I will test it and report back. Glad you're focusing on the bass via multi-sub rather than bouncing sound for Atmos. Good choice!

Yes I was referring to the HD version of unbalanced unit which does have 2Vrms out. I wouldn't use a device that can't do 2Vrms for a sub channel. Sorry for the confusion. 7.5 ms of delay is a bit short but in my 26x27ft room, all I needed was 3ms relative to the other subs and it did the job...

This isn't a Donald Trump rally. We welcome all folks and opinion as long as your courtesy towards each other. There is a lot of nonsense surrounding exotic cables that I spent years researching and debunking. I suggest checking out the AV Cable section of this site for more information...

We just found out, they are still open but under new management. gobeale.com

Don't mess with it man. I agree, let Fluance take care of you and don't void your warranty. They seem very serious about fixing this issue and looking to tighten up their QC in the future.

Yea I was wondering if the polarity between the mid/tweet should actually be reversed but as you said if the dip isn't in the crossover region it probably doesn't matter. Still I'd be interested in at least trying it b/c curious minds want to know ;) BTW I checked my measurements again, the...

WTF, Keith Emerson of ELP died today. Cause of death, shotgun to the head, suicide! http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/keith-emerson-emerson-lake-and-palmer-keyboardist-dead-at-71-20160311 This is sad news and just goes to show you how many people are suffering from untreated mental health...

Guys, anyone that has these speakers and a way to measure, I just thought it might be interesting to reverse the polarity of the tweeter after you've already reversed the polarity of the top terminals. When I reversed the polarity of the top terminals, it fixed the lower mid suckout but...

Dan welcome to our forum. It's nice to get seasoned folks like yourself here into the discussions. I enjoyed reading your post and if your interested into formalizing it into an editorial for the site, please feel free to PM or email me at: gds@audioholics.com You may enjoy this editorial I...

Weird, Theo did all the grunt work on this installation and article and now I think Beale Street may be out of business? I haven't been able to access their website for at least 2 days. In any event, I guess just apply the lessons learned in this article for any of your favorite in-wall...

This installation guide illustrates how to retrofit a home theater system to support the latest Dolby Atmos / DTS:X / Auro 3D immersive surround formats using Beale Street in-ceiling speakers for the height channels and SVS Ultra series speakers for the ear level channels; all powered by a Denon...

Oh we have our ducks in a row including the email where he agreed all was settled once we annotated the video too :)

Agreed. Hopefully the word spreads and acts as a deterrent for him to continue with this. I haven't posted this on the homepage yet but if I have to, I will do so and even make a Newsletter about it. I'd again rather not waste peoples time with this nonsense.

I got a response from YouTube! Ethan actually originally threatened to take legal action against me for using the image in question so we'll see how far he wants to take this. As I said before, I'm not one for dealing with frivolous lawsuits but I am prepared for a fight if he wants one.

Thanks for your great and accurate assessment and support. Yes Ethan's gear choices are quite interesting. He has pretty much publicly stated on other forums that ALL DAC's sound the same and his $150 Pioneer receiver is every bit as good as expensive high end gear. He swore up and down by...

This is NO Accident. It takes significant effort to file a complaint on Youtube to make this kind of accusation. He simply doesn't like us talking about multi-sub as an alternative to heavy bass trapping for sound reproduction systems in small rooms. He's been quite belligerent on AVS and his...

Jamie; Beautiful room! It would really benefit you to get a cheap USB mic (Dayton Audio as example) and download REW to pull some in-room measurements to help find the best locations. Our Ebook diagrams are for guidelines only. Corner loading will give you better LF coupling and excite more...

I haven't seen any proof that absolute phase matters. That said, you generally want to avoid too many phase changes of gain stages within a feedback loop for stability reasons. This article talks about this a bit: http://sound.westhost.com/ptd.htm and our article with Rod Elliot contributing...

That is puzzling. It's hard to say what's going on without measurements but it really shouldn't make a difference if you wired both bass sections 180 out of phase. Maybe Dennis can check at his end if he still has the stock crossovers?
