You're gonna have to kind of skim through it and skip over the Xcurve stuff. The first few pages discusses many of these issues and you can search the quotes I put in prior posts to find those sections.

The Apple Watch line of wearables, including the Apple Watch Sport is like all things from Apple. What the Apple Watch can do, it does very well, and does so with a slick interface including new gesturing and haptic feedback. However, there are enough drawbacks to make the watch feel more like a...

Benefits of Early Reflections Issues with Auto-EQ

I fixed the link in the original post. Take a look.

Live Rooms vs Dead Rooms: Which are better? It depends on what you're doing!

A few key points about Auto-EQ and Equalization as excepted below. For Multiple Seats, Equalization Cannot: • Add or remove reflections • Change reverberation time • Reduce seat-to-seat variations in bass • Correct frequency dependent directivity in loudspeakers • Compensate for frequency...

This is the latest AES paper submission from Dr. Floyd Toole. It deals with the Measurement and Calibration of Sound Reproduction Systems. The following discussions will embrace both large and small venue sound systems: cinemas for public exhibitions, home theaters and stereo systems for...

I think they are trying to clear inventory of the MC line or they are slowly listing all of their products online for direct sale in a way that is not threatening to their dealers.

So confusing. RBH = EMP, EMP = RBH? :confused:

True but surges and over/under voltage can be helped with a good device. Usually the devices that protect against lightening only do so one time then its time to replace the MOVs. Hum can be eliminated by tying all of your chassis grounds together at a common pt such as the power conditioner...

If you open the owners manual of a Monster Power / Surge Supressor it tells the consumer to unplug their product during a lightening storm. That doesn't give me great confidence that the product will protect your equipment under those circumstances. I'd recommend picking a product that is...

The Ultimate Ears Pro Reference Monitor has been a proud product of Ultimate Ears now for several years and remains the choice amongst audiophiles as the reference Custom In-Ear Monitor. Combining an accurate representation of sound with a seemingly large soundstage, the Ultimate Ears is...

Agreed the car reviews are a bit ridiculous at times. Most people don't take their cars on tracks or even able to drive it to the limits. I know I wouldn't take my car on a track for fear of burning out the tires and brakes. Again this is why I really value practical subjective car reviews...

We have membership services in the form of ebooks and soon to be webinars. It's not a very profitable business model for us and its doubtful there will be enough people willing to pay a premium for tech / calibration info. Additionally, restricting content for paid membership severely hinders...

I'm not sure why you keep repeating this point. Most of our loudspeaker reviews (especially the ones I do) have internal pics of product and plenty of them. Also we did work diligently to devise a loudspeaker measurement standard that the industry could adopt but its very difficult to get...

I'd love to have more reviews with full compliment of measurements but it's not always practical. The latest example being Josh's review of the XTZ sub which is taking almost 6 months to come to fruition. Most peeps writing for us have other jobs and commitments and it takes time to do...

While I understand your concerns, its important understand the bigger picture which I hope to outline below: Manufacturers don't like negative reviews. Blasting a product will usually ensure you NEVER get a review sample from that manufacturer again. Most consumers don't like negative reviews...

Bass is the most physically demanding band for a home theater system to reproduce, so it will naturally be the region where distortion is the most prevalent. Those of us interested in higher fidelity sound would do well to understand the degree of which distortion in low frequencies can be heard...
