Looks like poor resonance control on the tweeter. My god that's a big bump up at 20kHz. Though I bet the top end sounds very airy as a result.

Very cool though no idea how to reach them o_O

I would say they were dark though not fully dark. Maybe 60% Godiva but not a true 80% Belgium :)

Agreed regulating a power supply for an amplifier is not a good idea since you will essentially be wasting power to regulate. I had a friend that did this with his amps and although they sounded great and measured great, they were relatively low power as a result.

Agreed. $600 buys you a lot of sub these days from SVS, HSU and Rythmik for example.

I got to hear a full AJ speaker setup at my local Magnolia. I though the audio sounded pretty good but the Atmos effect was virtually non-existent. My wife couldn't stand them at all. Said all the sound was confined at the speaker without much of the 3D effect they are touted to have. I...

There are many ways to ruin fragile speakers and expensive electronics, but there are just as many safeguards you can implement to protect your equipment. There are well known solutions, such as surge protectors, but power surges aren’t the only threat. You can also overheat amplifiers, melt...

Why not deal with Oppo customer service directly? I wasn't even aware they had an authorized dealer network??? Oh and I've owned DVD and Blu-ray players from: Panasonic, Oppo, Denon, and Marantz, etc. To date I've never had a Denon last me more than 2-3 years without some reliability issue...

The Legacy Audio Studio HD bookshelf speakers are shocking. Usually when someone talks about an American, hand-crafted speaker with amazing high-frequency detail (thanks to a unique tweeter), a top-of-the-line cabinet, and high-end finish options, you start to imagine the price tag going up, and...

Man the Santa belly laughs are a bit hard to stomach...:eek: Laurie looks like he want's to be somewhere else in much of the video. The fear of crossover distortion in Class AB amps has been nullified over 20-30 years ago. It's really not an issue anymore with employment of quality...

Rather than rewriting, I added this to the article: Upgrade Path: CMT-340SE CMT-340 SE Product Page However, if your budget can expand to about $600/pair ($568/pair + shipping), we highly recommend stepping up to the Ascend CMT-340SE speakers. The CMT-340 SE's sport dual 6.5" phase plug...

Agreed I will see about getting that updated or at least recommended as an upgrade path. More speaker for the money for sure!

Let's face it, when space is tight, your best bet to getting good sound is a pair of bookshelf speakers mated with a subwoofer tucked away out of sight. $500/pair seems to be a good sweet spot where respectable performance and good aesthetics can be had in the same package. While there are so...

WE made some adjustments to how Youtube embeds videos on the forum. Try now please and let me know.

i just checked the site and forum with IE11 and have no issues whatsoever. I suggest deleting you install of IE. Run a program called RKILL, then run MBAM and reinstall IE.

Rotel just took things up a notch in their product line by introducing their RSP-1582, a new 7.1 channel, surround-sound preamplifier/processor home theater component that can serve as a master control for all audio and video components in an upscale home theater system. It is HDMI 2.0 and...

"Wave ring" is a new one to me ;) Please post your gear. WE have a special Pros/Joe's area to show off your stuff. Also we have over 42k active subscribers on our FB page that are two-channel audioholics and love vintage stuff. See: www.facebook.com/audioholics

Audible differences are hard to snuff out in controlled listening tests. It's very easy to measure a difference but not so much to hear a difference when dealing with cables. Focus first on building a quality system with proper speaker placement and setup. Then work on the room acoustics...

This is the review you're likely referring to: http://www.audioholics.com/gadget-reviews/kimber-kable-8pr I vaguely remember your email but I don't recall ever stating you would experience better fidelity from this cable over regular 10/12AWG cables. I recall saying go for it if you want...
