    Audyssey implementation differences in Denon and Marantz

    Hmm. You really need to tame the room acoustics first before applying EQ. Can you add some insulated drapery over your windows and glass doors? Perhaps add more furniture, bookcases, etc? Any chance to do some ceiling treatment in a nice pattern to compliment the room decor? Try to be in...

    Help Us Beta Test Audioholics 2.0

    Yes kinda like Slashdot does. Read my lips, we will NEVER charge to read editorial content! The forums will remain largely unchanged. As for the side banners on the site, these are on every page NOT just the homepage. You will have a text zoom option which will eliminate them.

    Read post #41. For a small annual fee this becomes a moot issue while you also receive other great benefits soon to be announced.

    Hsu MBM-12 Thread

    It is kinda a "unique" product that I am not sure I fully understand yet. All I can gather is they are using the bandwidth limited sub for higher frequency modal control but I could be wrong. We will eventually arrange for a review when we get caught up on other projects.

    I just saw this on AVS - svs related (???)

    Advertisers come and go on our site and we almost always maintain excellent relations with all of them thereafter unless of course they somehow offer a faulty product or service to our readers, which was NEVER the case with SVS. SVS is entitled to their side of the story and you’ve already...

    Genesis Reunion

    Well I think I am the only staff member of Audioholics that is such a Genesis Fan, but since I am the owner, my vote carries considerably more weight than the rest of the Audioholics staff :D

    Less than 1,000$ Subwoofer options – Suggestions?

    If you have a box sub with 20” walls or s^3 = 8,000in^3 and want the same volume in a cylinder sub: Let’s say the cylinder was 16” in diameter, then the length would have to be: V = pi*r^2*h 8000 = 3.14(8^2)*h => h = 40” The panel resonance of a 20” box sub is: ¼ * 1100 / 1.667 = 165...

    Less than 1,000$ Subwoofer options – Suggestions?

    Cylinders have to be rather large to yield equivalent volume of a box product. You also have to take great care in adequately bracing these products (moreso IMO) than a box product of equivalent volume. Cosmetically, I think boxes blend in a room better (personal preference). That being...

    You're obviously a newbie and NOT familiar with this site to make such a moronic statement. :rolleyes: Could it be I interviewed Steve Hackett because I am: a huge Genesis fan had the opportunity consider it 1 step closer to interviewing the current band before they tour over the summer

    Less than 1,000$ Subwoofer options – Suggestions?

    I'd stick to box subs over cylinders if you can accommodate the box. Also keep in mind BIGGER isn't always better. It takes a lot of good engineering to make a high performance sub in a smaller enclosure. HSU does a great job of this and Velodyne perhaps best exemplifies this with their DD...

    need good alternative to HSU VTF-2 MK3

    Its gonna be extremely tough to match the performance of the HSU sub you are looking at for this price class. I'd either wait for the sub, or expect to spend a little more coin for an alternative like the Axiom EP350 Note the EP350 has the same driver as the EP500 and EP600. It just...

    Velodyne DD-18 Subwoofer Review

    It's always important to consider design goals of an engineered system before broad brushing a product. NEVER assume you or even the reviewer knows more about the design intent than the company that actually designed the product.
