For those not familiar with their music (myself included), here is a good tune I just found from them on Youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2e8Wd-mIVs Glass Hammer - So Close, So Far - YouTube

No the only way to see that is if we provide permissions to a user with a Gmail account. We don't give that ability to anyone but advertisers that request it.

I think Alexa is becoming more and more irrelevant with people using ad blocker and not wanting to clutter their browsers with 3rd party tool bars. Luckily we use Google Analytics which is an industry standard tool for reporting traffic metrics. We fully disclose all of our traffic data, but...

Our editorial site traffic is actually up from last year. Our forum traffic is down a bit (registration issues I believe) but not enough to explain the downtrend in those tools. We aren't quantified nor do we have page code in for Compete so that may explain why we have a negative trend there...

Guys; For some reason our Alexa ranking is getting worse (the lower the # the better). I am having a hard time understanding this since our traffic is fine. If you can install the Alexa tool bar on your browser and make Audioholics your homepage it may help us. Advertisers use Alexa as one...

Review Update One of the samples being delivered to "PBC" has been delayed by FEDEX. So I just wanted to let everyone know to hold off on publishing their reviews until I create a dedicated thread for it. I will set the date for 2 weeks after everyone received their samples. thanks.

Yep that's intentional since those drivers have a lot more output capability at those frequencies. The woofers on the 8T are crossed over even higher. Stereo bass rocks, not so much below 80hz but from 80hz and up most definitely.

If you had a pair of 8T subs it would be a crime to restrict them without their matching satellite speakers. What you really need to do is sell your 802d's and get a pair of Status 8T speakers ;) The way the sub+satellite system integrates with this system is unparalleled which is why I am...

That's not a ridiculous question at all. As far as I can tell, both amps have identical power transformers and capacitor banks. The UPA200 has 2 power amp modules while the UPA500 has 5 power amp modules. You can ask Emotiva for more clarity but the way I understand, if you just drive a...

I doubt the design has radically changed much between the P360 and P363. Stereophile does a sum of close mic'd measurements. This will produce different ( and less accurate results at bass frequencies) compared to my 1 meter outdoor GP measurements below 1kHz and 1/2 meter summed nearfield...

The Marantz SR6004 isn't a wimpy department store A/V receiver. I was referring to a typical $400-500 A/V receiver. The UPA-500 would be an upgrade to that. I only used the SR6004 as a preamp because it was the least expensive receiver/preamp I had at my disposal when testing the UPA-500...

sounds like the voice coil isn't properly aligned if its making a rubbing sound as the cone moves in and out.

It's been a long time so I don't remember all the issues other than some of the drivers sounded very one-notey. Yes efficiency and inductance were issues I recall.

Shane spent years developing and testing the improved bass driver. He is meticulous about having good bass and was very careful in designing the new driver to be as musical as the old one. I was present during some of his preliminary testing when he had a bunch of different high mass drivers...

If you have a UPA-7 and are happy with it, I'd stick with it. It's still a better amp than the UPA-500. The crosstalk performance on the UPA-7 is still acceptable (50dB @ 20kHz). At least 40dB at 20kHz would be a min requirement and the UPA-7 meets it with 10dB to spare.

The 200 and 500 have identical power supplies and power modules. No need to review the 200 and to be honest, I'd suggest to anyone shopping a 200 to just get the 500 for a little more money in case you ever need the extra channels of amplification.

To this day I still feel the HK3490 is the finest stereo receiver for under $500. It has one unique feature the others don't - a digital input and good DACs. That Yamaha looks superb too and it has multi-zone. If you don't care about the digital input, the Yamaha is a solid choice. If you...

Glad to hear you won't be dumping your chemical toilet while we're all sitting down to eat lunch :) Shitter was full from Christmas Vacation - YouTube

Check out these speakers from Definitive Technology. They should give you enough bass to NOT need a sub for two-channel listening. Definitive Technology StudioMonitor 65 Speakers Video Review — Reviews and News from Audioholics

I'm sure the mods would significantly help in the bass department. The entire bottom cavity of the stock version is hollow which is ridiculous. But, the real limitation of these speakers IMO is the tweeter. The midrange driver is great however and the bass drivers are acceptable.
