    Looking to replace Audioquest speaker cable (I am ashamed)

    That is true. Some of their lower end products like their self terminating coax cables are quite good. If they didn't slap batteries on their high end stuff, boast a bunch of marketing technobabble nonsense, and charge more for their so called "high end" cables than a new car, they would be...

    Velodyne DD-18 Subwoofer Review

    You gain SPL either way but depending on how the subs play into the room it can be anywhere from up to 6dB gain or loss if you have acoustical cancellations. Either way, if you want deeper extension in a large room, its best to go with multiple larger subs.

    Velodyne DD-18 Subwoofer Review

    Try to tone down the ignorance for once please. There is more to subwoofer design than stuffing a bunch of unnecessary bracing or overstuffing into a box. I personally own 2 DD15s and although they don't sound as dead as other products I've compared them to when you knock on the side wall, the...

    Haha good one. Out of the several thousands of entries for a contest like this, perhaps 3-4 valid ones can actually find a good home for speakers of this magnitude. :D

    Velodyne DD-18 Subwoofer Review

    Possibly, but the low end extension and overall output in such a large room would suffer. I wouldnt recommend anything smaller than DD15's in that room. The laws of phsyics come into play here, BIGGER enclosure and BIGGER driver equals more extension and output. Don't forget the DD15s and...

    Velodyne DD-18 Subwoofer Review

    NO. You mean 4 DD12s I presume. Having first hand experience with the entire DD line, there is a big step up going from DD12s to DD15s. In a room his size, I'd go at least 2 DD15s or preferably 2 DD18s.

    Velodyne DD-18 Subwoofer Review

    In a room that size you should definately have 2 subs. If the DD-18 price is too steep, I'd go with a pair of DD-15s. Thats a huge room!

    RBH Sound Signature T-30LSE System Review

    please re-read the portion of the review you are referring to as I rewrote it a bit to clarify. As a fullrange tower, there would be no need to self limit them. I meant the limiter feature should they ever do a dedicated sub, kinda like what Velodyne and Axiom does with their products that way...

    RBH Sound Signature T-30LSE System Review

    What else do you want? The speakers are constructed of 3/4" HDF instead of MDF. They are well braced and well lined with damping materials in the right places. They use some of the highest quality drivers on the market, hence why they received a very good rating in build quality. Their...

    RBH Sound Signature T-30LSE System Review

    I used the xover in my processor because I ran the RBH and Velodyne subs all in mono to get the best bass integration across the entire listening area. Had I set this system up for 2 channel only, I wouldn't have used any bass management at all.

    We do this already with Projector People and Visual Apex. Sure if you want Audioholics to go out of business in a couple of months :rolleyes: It's amazing how people don't understand what's involved with running this publication and keeping it profitable so we can all do this for a living.

    If you heard their competition at the Venetian, you'd understand. We have some videos of this coming online shortly. Snell was also excellent but we couldn't directly compare since they were located at different hotels. I stand by my assesment of the two best demos at the show. Perhaps...
