LOL James it stuck in the past. I moved us forward and corrected it.

Interesting, where do you get this service?

Yes, sadly for both music and movies.

Leaked email from Apple: “to recognize the creative investment and value that high-quality Spatial Audio brings to both fans and artists, we will be making changes to how royalties are calculated. Plays of content available in Spatial Audio will receive a higher royalty value.” Interestingly...

James, you must be fun at parties ;) Without the mass appeal to Atmos, it probably would have been off the radar of even serious audio enthusiasts. I do agree that Dolby really watered it down, similar to what THX did by certifying everything but breakfast cereal. But, we are getting more and...

That guy missed the mark. His reference is an Atmos soundbar, no wonder he doesn't like the format. James, I think you're just being lazy and don't want to install height speakers in your ceiling. Atmos isn't a failure, their crappy bouncy house speakers were.

I know I don't spend as much time here as I should, but I value our community and ALL our members here. I appreciate you guys and wanted to share a photo from tonight's family Christmas Eve party with a surprise visit from Mr. And Mrs. Claus. This has been a hard Christmas for me struggling...

That's the only statement I can agree with in your soap box rant. Merry Christmas. Don't fry any receivers watching the holiday classics.

This is an example an armchair post with little to no actual field experience. Most people buying these speakers aren't using cheap AVRs with poor thermal management. I know two very large MartinLogan dealers that pair this series with Anthem electronics which are stable enough to drive a fork...

I jokingly say that to everyone, including myself when I make assumptions without knowing all the facts. TLS Guy doesn't strike me as someone that can't take a joke.

It was a good stream last night despite I was a little disoriented from fever and being sick: https://www.youtube.com/live/P4xVC6wtUGI?si=GekXxkMWwHok6NjD Merry Christmas everyone!

I don't honestly know how to do that. The bumper is obnoxiously loud and I likely will have someone redesign it. Sorry LOL

yea agreed. Most measurements done on loudspeakers are never done to the point to see how they "misbehave". It's why I always prefer speakers with way more dynamic range than I tend to use in my listening space. I personally feel a speaker that is more effortless at very high SPL tends to also...

The problem with making ASSumptions on how a speaker sounds solely on measurements without actually hearing them can lead one to believe listening tests aren't even needed. Just buy with a graph. I spoke with Dan Roemer of Perlisten about this topic. It's fairly easy to make a speaker produce...

MartinLogan's XT F100 Floorstanding Speakers are a 5-driver, 3-way design that recently underwent a significant upgrade featuring a new waveguide and revamped drivers from its predecessor Motion series. The New XT F100 from MartinLogan is an aesthetically pleasing design with top-notch build...

If your using an analog source than digitizing it to engage the DSU, then yes it can very well sound different. I would always tell people use the DSU for digital sources only. The ADCs in most consumer gear tends to be subpar.

Dec 21, 2023 Update: Bloomberg is reporting that Apple engineers are busy tweaking the software inside the Apple watches to avoid Masimo patents, maybe just in time for last-minute Christmas orders. Boomberg says: "It’s a high-stakes engineering effort unlike any Apple has undertaken before."...

The analog bypass issue was thoroughly addressed by top brass at D&M last night on our livestream. Any D&M product with pure direct feature has a true analog bypass. This is how it's always been in my 20+ years of testing their products. https://www.youtube.com/live/yE_k_vzb83A?si=-TOeAecudrX9g5pv
