    GoldenEar Triton Three Tower Loudspeaker Preview

    there are definitely pros and cons to it. Pros - usually better bass response compared to passive tower, takes up less space than separate towers and subs Cons - bass modules can't be optimally located in the room and usually aren't up to the same level of performance as dedicated powered...

    Revel Performa3 Loudspeakers Preview

    We were told by the Revel rep that only the demo pair had the actual drivers. The other speakers had dummy drivers for display only. Yes regardless they look like great speakers.

    Revel Performa3 Loudspeakers Preview

    I don't think the pics from CES are of the real drivers. Those were mock ups. Stay tuned for the official product pages on their site.

    2010 Audioholics $1k Floorstanding Loudspeaker Faceoff

    Time of Reconcile our Differences This constant back and forth between us, forum members and Axiom isn't productive for anyone involved. I honestly don't have it in my heart to sustain negative energy like this. I myself am to blame because I allowed it to progress on this forum rather than...

    Thanks I found the 2 typos for Velodyne and fixed it. All last years tests are there too. Tab2 has 3 of the 4 tests Paul did. I kept Josh's tests for Rythmik instead b/c it was tested for multiple modes.

    A Detailed Look at the Importance of Proper Loudspeaker Cabinet Bracing

    There also comes a point where over analyzing a situation can be counterproductive, especially if the analysis isn't accurate enough to reveal the problem.

    A Detailed Look at the Importance of Proper Loudspeaker Cabinet Bracing

    Agreed and it really depends on the cabinet size, driver compliment, and output levels sustained within the enclosure. Most loudspeaker engineers choose to stiffen the cabinet enough to push resonance out of the bandwidth of the woofer to make it less audible.
